I've only rented an ev, but only about half the time they have successfully taken a cc. Either they were broken, or it was just missing.

A lot of them have apps, which is very annoying as a renter, but if you own the car it should be less of an issue.

Afaik you don't actually need to purchase a subscription to use them.

There are other elections throughout the year... Midterms at the federal level, and often state and local elections too.

Admittedly how it works in the US, but I'm sure still applies in other countries, maybe not everywhere.

Or even just the same developer, but working less hours. Less likely, but possible.

Maybe if we didn't build our cities and communities so hostile to humans, this wouldn't be as much as a problem.

Because lemmy search sucks. Its very specific, and usually the most relavant stuff is buried by tangetially related things.

What's so mind boggling stupid to me is that full evs are mechanically so much simpler.

Their reliability should be fantastic.

But no oems cheap out on things like contactors in the battery.

Batteries should also be treated as consumable. Easily replaceable, maybe even in parts.

Electric motors seem like they should last forever too.

But nope, instead we get skimped cars with too big batteries, and seemingly no money spent anywhere else.

Manufacturers need to remember that planned obselesence only works when you know what your doing, and right now they early don't.

We have reactor designs that use already spent fuel, we just aren't building them. We have enough spent fuel for centuries, and afterwards the reprocessed fuel is much less radioactive, and only for a few decades.

But it's text, an entire persons message history can be stored very cheaply.

A million words is only 2MB.

Most people are expexted to text less than 10 millions words in a lifetime.

An entire persons lifetime message history is only 20MB, that's trivial to store.

If they want to charge to save media, thats fine, but text backups should be free

I'm not on beehaw, but I ran into similar problem when I joined lemmy.

My solution was to filter communities and users where I felt I was getting apammed with content at a frequency I didn't enjoy.

You might get some milage out if that approach.

Honestly, it's so easy to block accounts, so if there's only one bot in you community you should just keep it.

If they don't like it they can block it.

Admiral Pasalk may not have been evil, but he was a jerk.

Give it a decade and economies of scale, and maybe it will get it down to twice as expensive.
