Back in 2009-2010 I bought an entry level 13" MacBook Pro because it was fairly competitively priced compared to other options with similar specs, but the MBP had by far the better battery life, display quality, touchpad, and probably keyboard. It was easily worth the upcharge for those factors, so no real Apple Tax.

It’s pretty niche, but https://alternativess.com (sport archery retailer)

It can be done, but then whoever forks that will need to stay on top of keeping that fork up to date with other changes in the original chromium, and that gets harder and harder to do as time goes on and more changes are made to the same or related parts of the codebase.

Pretty sure the CX-3 is actually a Mazda 2, and the Mazda CX-5 is on the same platform as the 3, just enlarged a bit.

I’m honestly surprised they made 10,000 sales.

People decide who to hire for what roles and who to lay off. People form unions and people bust unions. The shareholders are people, and the decisions made in their interests are made by other people.

When was the last time you saw a corporation making decisions and taking actions of its own accord, without people?

Maybe they will start to, now, as people delegate their responsibilities to “AI”

AI on its own isn’t a threat, but people (mis)using and misrepresenting AI are. That isn’t a problem unique to AI but there sure are a lot of people doing dumb and bad things with AI right now.

That sounds like someone who topped out with highschool level programming tried to implement a hash algorithm.

I wasn’t trying to justify it as a good choice. I’d never buy one either. But it is simply not true to say that “literally all other cars” other than Teslas have a common speedometer placement.

For example they don’t put the speedometer on the center dash like literally all other cars do.

There are other cars that do this, or did this in recent history. Mini Coopers for example, and some entry-level Toyotas like the Echo.

!cars@lemmy.world could be a starting point

Lmao, you thought there would be times it would be cheaper than now? Nah. It would baseline where it is now, and become more expensive when people actually want to eat.

Fuel cell EVs can’t be fitted with charging plugs for religious reasons

I really need to hear that story.

In a scenario where Canada needs a nuclear deterrent against the USA, I don’t think NORAD is really in the picture anymore.

I just went through this exact process (not for the first time) two weeks ago with a bug in the golang standard library. Fun times. Deep in the dependency stack of a container build my team doesn’t own so who knows when I’ll get a fixed version.
