So beautiful.

I don't hate them because they're women, I hate them for what they eat! Which they do because they're female. ๐Ÿค”

This article gives some information on why some have abandoned hope for Firefox and Mozilla. AI focus, changing its stance on selling user data, and the overall loss of focus. It's still better than most, IMO, but some of its forks better represent those who feel that way.

I'd say harming mosquitoes (females only, that feed on blood) is better than vegan!

Sorry to break it to you, but you might want to start looking at Firefox forks.

Well, this isn't a unique concept. The fact it goes horrible pretty quickly and people keep falling for it is the truly impressive part.

I wish we had Gattaca instead of what we have. At least the shitty people would be genetically superior, for whatever that's worth, instead of just richer.

I have a 2017 Leaf. It absolutely has its drawbacks compared to most modern cars, but it did exist 6 years ago.

The newer EVs are switching to heat pumps for managing battery temperature. It's more efficient than resistive heat, and can use the same system for cooling. This helps maintain range both by keeping batteries the right temperature and by doing it more efficiently.

And who in Winnipeg hasn't heard of what happens if you let your gas tank get too empty in extreme cold?

I hope we get to see them hoisted by their own petard.

Your whole plan is to show them how things would be better if they just followed the EUs lead. Imagine you're on a boat. There are a bunch of holes in it and you want to patch them up, but other people keep putting holes in it. So one day you lament, "Why can't these boat-holers stop putting holes in the boat so we can all stay afloat longer?" And then someone comes along and tuts you saying, "Now now, no name calling. If you don't want to put holes in the boat, just stop and show them how much better it will be!" The problem is, the boat's still sinking, and faster all the time, and if the boat-holers don't quit it, a whole lot of people are going to drown. Moreover, putting holes in the boat is not only cheaper than not putting holes in the boat (let alone patching it) you can make more money putting holes in the boat! Given that context, can you see how the people who want to stop putting holes in the boat would get frustrated with the people putting holes in the boat, and would be baffled by someone more concerned about the descriptive pejorative than they are by the other guys putting holes in the boats?

I don't have to do nothing while waiting for delivery. I have to cook to...cook. Sometimes I don't want to cook, and I usually have something quicker if that's the case, but your false equivalency doesn't help your argument.

 

Just came across this video. I've never heard of him before, but he seems to focus on facts, which I always appreciate. May showed some promising results in the import/export front for Canada. Hopefully the trends continue.

 

Basically what the title says. Sometimes something is removed, rightly or wrongly, but its removal diminishes the comments below it. The capability is already in Lemmy and it would be nice to see if one chooses to, but I can accept that the feature could promote toxic behavior.
