What if you dont want your economy to work?

Ok but what if they cannot pay 80% less for one made in China?

The other commentator is right. Its easy to tell someone “just sell your car and walk” or whatever when you are not directly affected by the change you are asking someone else to make. Take a second and think of all the injustices in the world YOU are indirectly, involuntarily complicit in and what it might mean to be targeted for that reason. It is for this we offer charity to others, and therein is a clear line between wearing a nazi pin as a symbol and driving a Tesla, literally an appliance.

Interesting point. I thought about this a little and I suppose what separates a strike from this would be what is an organized opposition to a system vs. a targeted attack on individuals.

Crazy take. You dont have agency to address real issues (money in politics, correctly taxing gains, lack of good leadership and social infrastructure) so lets lash out at other wage earners who have more in common with you.

Chinese EVs are already being sold worldwide. We can either choose to “stand with” western auto manufacturers, or let free market do its thing. In this scenario it only makes sense to play both sides and offer people some economic relief.

I dont think anyone is advocating for lowering auto safety standards to allow Chinese EVs on roads. Lets be realistic in acknowledging that Chinese made vehicles are already in use in many parts of the world and provide comparable security and privacy standards as their American counterparts (viz. None).

Deepfakes are about impersonating the person in the video, fake news is… Well, just someone lying. Signatures are meant to verify the source of information, not the contents of it.

Simple example, we can be nearly 100% confident that the person posting tweets under the Trump account is (atleast authorized by) Trump. Doesnt stop him from lying nor uploading a deepfake video.

Call the offices of James P Alibini and see of they handle hate crimes first.

Im guessing adding plugins is part of your default workflow when installing browsers somehow. Ublock origin is the most used plugin on firefox Id reckon, but a fresh install doesnt carry it.

No, but “i wont be fundentally different from Biden” Harris was.

No youre right lets have a convicted felon, rapist, etc etc. who everyone already knows about and won’t change a thing for the better instead.

Hard disagree on this one. The regenerative braking has a learning curve yes, but the pros outweigh the cons imo. When you brake (in a traditional car or an EV), you are wearing out yor brake pads, turning friction into heat. Done right, renerative braking means almost all energy is captured back, and even lower maintenance by not bothering the brake pad.

It takes getting used to, you hate it at first, which is why tesla has an option to disable it, but there is a reason why most people who own Teslas use it, and other EVs are getting it as well.

Beautiful description. Well said.

Not a history expert. But I believe dota (defense of the ancients) was (one of?) the first games to create this genre of tower defense in 5v5 with the focus on heroes and skills instead of RTS marco. When others came along, they were initially referred to as “dota-like”, which obviously was not acceptable marketing for RIOT. Hence they coined the term MOBA, which come to think of it doesnt really mean anything? (Multi player online battle arena?)

What a fantastic piece by a really good author. Worth reading in its entireity, long as it is.
