What a fuckin weird story, it makes it sound like he was a peace loving hippie who wanted to make the world a better place, then smoked one bong hit too hard and ended up doing a complete 180, joining the fascist fuckheads and died making the world worse off
Unless he visited Russia (stupidly, not the first to do so nor the last), they figured out who his parents were and forced him on the front line somehow? blackmail?
This definitely the most odd story I’ve read so far
What about if the text on an image is factual but the accompanying stock photography is just an AI generated one? what’s the harm and/or who cares?
oh why?
It makes them less efficient
Who cares? Since when have Ferrari’s ever been about efficiency?
Ferrari is not helping the average person get into an EV
So car companies can only implement new features that help the average person get into EV’s? who made you the EV feature police?
They have videos on youtube with millions of views just based on the sound of them:

It’s ferrari, their owners aren’t worried about the oil price, ferrari is about racing passion, status, power, etc not economical ecobility
If they had any integrity, they would revise their motorsport culture to emphasize the advantages of the EVs they’re selling rather than try to camouflage them as cosplay ICE vehicles
The fact they are doing this shows integrity, if they really wanted they could just ignore EV’s all together, they have very little mechanics, they don’t make a noise, the lack of gearbox, they are equivalent to appliances for gear heads (which is perfect for me, the fact I haven’t had to work on my EV at all is nice, I just need an appliance to get me from point a to point b, but regardless)
I just don’t get it, some people like mechanical things, automatic gear shifting was a problem solved 50 years ago but people still like them today, is it possible for you to accept that some people like driving and shifting gears?
I still don’t understand why this concerns you at all, why not get your MG MG4 and be happy?
I don’t get it, looks spot on to me?

I duno why you need to look down on people who enjoy something? Where’s the harm in having sound effects and manual gearboxes in an EV? If it gets more people into EV’s so much the better?
damnit you got me, i actually did read it afterwards and realised my comment was wrong but then just left it as it has 9 updoots
hell yeah! rest in hell
but tbh it’s not, old people love it
tbh i’ll just keep using perplexity without using the browser, still firefox with ublock for me
Where did you read that?
yeah right, trump might be mental but you’re still a dictatorship
Maybe coincidence but SA has been on a wind power run for the last few days
training but at the same time having 100 million people daily asking a variety of questions will put up a server load
Facebook is a disaster that is happening in real time and yet
Facebook has for some reason decided I need to see a constant stream of compact, cutesy studio apartments with a variation of “this is all I need” captions.
Oh you still use it
My comments are mainly based on this: https://geekdom.social/@jospoortvliet/113866519934816580

“There are no known credible offerings from European providers,” reads an internal Commission document seen by Euractiv.
Which Nextcloud are saying is the result of lobbying from Microsoft
There’s still a lot going on globally:

But I don’t expect the US to have a fun ride
This economist says there’s a 90% chance of a recession. Here’s the math.
During the 2018 trade war with China, the U.S. average tariff rate increased from 2% to 3%. Studies show that the impact on gross domestic product was between 0.25% and 0.7%.
Using the low end of the estimated impact, and Trump’s plan that at the moment calls for double-digit tariff rates, Slok says the negative impact on GDP in 2025 could be almost 4 percentage points — and that doesn’t even include the negative impact from uncertainty for consumer spending decisions and business planning.
So a 4% hit to GDP when GDP last year in the US increase by 2.8% does not sound good

because it’s stupid, pacifism doesn’t lead to less war, it leads to more suffering
it’s the equivalent of saying don’t stand up to your bully just let him get away with it, in the end you lose and suffer more
