  Both a strength and weakness of FOSS. There is also the solar winds hack for a proprietary analog in case anyone is curious.

  I wonder what their answer for this will be in the coming days.

  Read carefully

  I’ve always felt many of these are government jobs programs for conservatives that love free markets but don’t have what it takes to survive in them.

  but the point of the other things on a personal level are important; largely because they instill a culture of caring about the matter.

  Seems you didn’t read properly, so I’m highlight a key point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  True, even Milton Friedman (barf) said we should be thankful if someone wants to subsides our lives. Besides these market extremists say all government intervention is bound to fail, so they should have nothing to fear letting the BYDs in. The socialist subsidy of BYD will collapse and we don’t want the government distorting our market either.

  This isn’t really my personal take, but i like using their own logic to reach a conclusion they will hate.

  Its largely american cope that they are not that good at manufacturing anymore. Chinese factories build things to spec, and the customer asks for cheap, so they get cheap.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  but to everyone saying “we should just compete”, do you realize the realities that Chinese workers experience? Have you heard of 996?

  I get what you are saying, but sometimes I think we should in a way, or at least we should get republicans exposed to it, so they can live their hogwash ideas of free markets.

  Its true that the economy of scale to reduce emissions is at the factories and such, but the point of the other things on a personal level are important; largely because they instill a culture of caring about the matter. For example, for better or worse, the marine corps puts a lot of emphasis on the proper wearing and display of the uniform, so the consequence is that it is taboo to not shave or have unshined shoes. If you are the only one in a party using a plastic straw or the only one rolling coal; you’ll be more than a sore thumb; you’ll be shunned at a deeper level and by the wider community not just environmentalists.

  No one is even saying no beef, but we are saying reduction in it. That statement is not only a false dichotomy, but preventing a real start to our movements.

  One woman was quite proud to pay $15 for her Accuweather app

  Damn these smart capitalists figured out how to get a weather satellite into space for that cheap? No wonder socialism failed/s

  For real tho it reminds me of that joke about libertarians being like cats. Also $15/mo feels way to high for weather updates

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair enough

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  For that and fear the company getting bored and pulling the plug on servers, leaving me with a paperweight, is why I didn’t get much into the IoT stuff.

  One time I bought some under armor shoes with bluetooth. They would connect to my phone and an app would take measurements on my stride and angle of my foot in my runs. At some point they decided to make the app a subscription. They wanted a whole $15/mo! I decided to just run like a caveman instead.

  If they are selling method then simple police work is needed to catch them. No need for ICE. Be intellectually honest, you know selling meth isn’t really happening.
