Snarky answer: “yes, and when there’s another hurricane the insurance can just claim bankruptcy and pass the bailout costs to taxpayers.”

Your points are valid for all brands outside of Tesla, btw. Virtually no vampire drain now whereas a few years ago your statement was correct. And I can get from 20->80% in about 20 minutes. Really not an issue to supercharge with how common Tesla superchargers are. All of the advantages outweigh the mild disadvantage of having to charge at superchargers.
I drove 2 hybrids until I got an EV. Will never go back. Concerns about EVs melt away once you’ve driven one. Charging is less of a hassle than you think.
The fact that they would put this in a hybrid means there’s something limiting it (ie poor discharge power, overheats easily, etc).
iCloud private relay is highly underrated for privacy imo. You won’t hear a lot of agreement with me here, but it’s the best form of a privacy vpn. When you use a third party vpn you still have to trust the vpn company to respect your privacy whereas private relay, by definition, does not allow Apple or anyone else to scrape your data.
Personally I’d like to thank Steve Huffman. Without him I would not have discovered Lemmy and I really like it here!
Wait, the white supremacists and Nazis that he caters to aren’t making up the ad revenue? Well I’ll be!
In the history of capitalism, the only way that a paid service has become successful over a free service has been to create greater value. GM software engineers vs Apple and Android software engineers? Everyone can see where this is going.
Some routers don’t like iCloud Private Relay as it is a privacy measure. I have gotten notifications from some wireless networks that internet access is not available via iCloud Private Relay. I tell those networks (that want to track my every move) to fuck themselves.
This is equivalent of trying to sell a modern TV without support for any smart apps. FOR AN EXTRA CHARGE. Pisses me off that taxpayers will once again have to bail out the failed shitshow that will be a GM backruptcy.
+1. Have same setup.
What if you had to PAY a subscription fee to NOT have Android Auto?
Hmm. I really am struggling trying to predict the outcome here.
On the one hand, we have a ubiquitous FREE interface that is mature and works via your phone (that 99% of people already have and are familiar with with their own custom music playlists) and is updated constantly.
On the other hand, we have a PAID interface that sucks donkey dick in usability with little to no customization or upgrade ability and will need to be managed completely separately from your phone.
The entire executive team should be escorted out of GM headquarters after receiving swirlies.
This is the exact opposite concept of a representative democracy. What we should be asking is that our representatives should be voting based upon their margin of victory. For example, if you win by one vote you need to REPRESENT your constituents 50/50.
One of the major problems with politics is that those elected think they should vote based solely on their own opinion, which is not representative.
Welcome to the United States, where consumers built the internet infrastructure that monopolies profit from and fight tooth and nail to prevent communities from providing high speed internet to its residents. Capitalism at its most corrupt: privatize profits and socialize capital costs and losses.
