I’d assume people that are bi are attracted to biological males and biological females, but not necessarily transsexuals or anything else on the sexuality/gender spectrum.

FSD isn’t the only feature locked behind a paywall.

They lock up everything from heated seats to acceleration speed.

It’s not my analogy, but it does make sense if you even remotely think about it. The downside is that my car carries extra weight in the form of this additional hardware. Teslas are heavy enough as-is with their giant batteries, I’d rather remove any and all unnecessary weight for the sake of my tire tread life (and battery life). Also depending on exactly what the hardware is, it can be an additional point of failure that could potentially cause things that I do have access to to break. Lastly, it’s fair to assume that the price of the car would be cheaper if Tesla didn’t have to install this hardware into every car even if it will never be used, so you are likely already paying for this in “hidden” costs that are just rolled into the total price of the car before even paying to enable the features.

Do you know what an analogy is?

That’s fair. I’d call the last point new commentary more than an argument since he didn’t really provide any evidence that it’s true. /pedantic

This comment is basically just a tl;dr of the OP

Five guys

no longer in use or no longer useful

I wouldn’t say obsolete because that implies it’s not really used anymore. Most websites and apps still use validation not too dissimilar from the OP, even if it goes against the latest best practices.

I used to have this phone back in the day. It was cool but it ran hot as hell and I got really bad screen burn after a year or so.

Well yeah, the US is set up for giant corporations to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible regardless of how much it will fuck over the customer, bonus points if fucking over the customer doesn’t include immediate proof of physical harm to said customer.

What are friends

Been using Reddit for over 15 years (before deleting it recently) - I’ve always seen and used it interchangeably since the beginning.

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to ask someone “did you even read the OP?”

Oh my god yes, I only ever use this “feature” accidentally when trying to navigate backwards.

Lemmy really needs to add the ability to interact with the rest of the fediverse like mastodon. That’s like…supposed to be the whole point of being part of the fediverse.

Not much discussion here to be of value showing up in search results yet anyway.

Nah if that’s not what you meant you need to work on your writing skills bud.

Try to understand what you are trying to say before writing it, even if you don’t like it. That will make you less likely to be misunderstood.

How is that hyperbole? That’s essentially what you are suggesting lmao
