"The most plastic/poorly-made junk I've experienced in my life is a Tesla Model Y."

Try a Chrysler anything. They are actually getting worse

Toyota has the best hybrid system by far, but it's still not as good as an EV. The mileage also isn't that impressive really, there have been a few cars which get that mileage without being a hybrid.

There's a hell of a lot more that would have to change to even make your suggestions viable or helpful in this country.

I'm not angry about EVs, I'm poor, so I can't afford the off street parking that would let me charge at home. I live in a remote corner of California without enough electrical power for current demand, and the orange child rapist spent a bunch of our money to stop the wind farm project that was going to go in here. There is a DC charger in town but i choose not to walk that far in the morning. A used EV in my price range literally won't make it to work and back (1st Gen leaf is it) and we don't have EV charging at or near work.

So while I'd love to have a clean, quiet EV, I can't have one. And given that over 25% of Americans are underemployed, this story or one which is similar is a hell of a lot more common than you think. Slashdotters are overall a privileged bunch, but some of you are willfully ignorant of what it's like for the rest of us.

"My government is NOT there to tell me what the fuck to do...it is there to represent my interests"

Although you care about zero of them, there ARE other people with the same representatives you have, who want different things than you do. For example, they want livable climate for themselves and their offspring, while you couldn't be arsed to care about yours.

It seems to be fixed in all current versions for users using the security repo... Thanks tho

It's pretty interesting who is kowtowing in which ways.

Apple and Google are both renaming things for the toddler in chief.

Google is pulling this shit to force AI, but not calling it SI.

Apple is showing Gaza on the map in its pre-bombed state.

Only one culture has ever nuked anyone.

And it was done for funsies.

If anyone should be deprived of nukes, it's US.

So they are giving the user the ability to create barely decorated windows like the ones Firefox allows websites to create where I want them to or not? Maybe in another 20 years they will let us stop sites from doing that, too.

Next you'll be complaining that we want to prosecute your orange idol for child rape. Well, don't rape children!

It's just stupid of Toyota that they didn't try to compete in EV sales. The idea that they would just let everyone else figure it out and then come from behind was a dumb one.

More than 75% of convicts doing forced labor are black

This is a direct lie.

Google's AI search results and their traditional search results may be presented at the same time on the same page, but they are not at all integrated. The AI search does not make use of the real search results, and the real search results do not make use of the AI search results either. There is absolutely zero integration there.

Chris Phillips, vice president for education at Google, is a lying piece of shit. No doubt that's why Google hired him — to tell lies like the piece of shit he is.

They don't, though. Routers need the most regulation because there is the most risk, though it's not really all that different from what TVs need.

(Nothing prevents a manufacturer from putting a microphone in a router.)

I trust China to sell the info they have on me to the feds, and I trust the feds to buy it.
