I checked the website it’s actually $45k sticker price in the US.
The $30k price is with the $1k discount mentioned plus the “Include est. incentives of $7,500 and 5-year gas savings of $6,000” check box the Tesla site has.

No because the Democrats actually care about truth and justice

They are referring to the lemmy developers

Your senses do not feed back into evolution. It’s all random mutations that happen to make it slightly better at serving.
For many things that seem to require a large single leap in progress it turns out that there is a clear story of gradually developing it over a long time.

Ram is important but it has to be vram not system ram.
Only MacBooks can use the system ram because they have an integrated GPU rather than a dedicated one.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 months ago:
Only the GPU and primarily the vram matters for LLMs. So this wouldn’t help at all.
- Comment on What is a good starting point for learning about quantum fields 4 months ago:
Read Sean Carroll’s new Biggest Ideas pt 2 book
- Comment on Advice wanted: Combining current solutions into one home server 4 months ago:
TrueNAS is pretty good and they have a Linux version which will have better compatibility with your game servers.
- Comment on What is the Anti Commercial-Al license and why do people keep adding it to their comments? 6 months ago:
It’s meaningless bullshit if they think the AI companies give a shit about copyright
- Comment on I diagnose you with dystopia 6 months ago:
One medical is actually a pretty good service and it’s fucked up that Amazon bought them
- Comment on How did we get humans on the moon in 1969 and are still struggling to get the Starship rocket to launch properly? 6 months ago:
In the early 70s it was a risky and expensive one-time deal. Starship is doing it sustainably and will completely revolutionize space travel.
The capabilities of starship are orders of magnitude more payload and for orders or magnitude less money at the same time.
Turns out it’s a bad idea to totally scrap a billion dollar rocket every time you use it.
- Comment on Is Lemmy growing or shrinking? 6 months ago:
If you’d like to try mbin fedia.io is a good instance. Run by Jerry from infosec.exchange.
Personally I support software diversity and Earnest seems like a nice person but Lemmy has a bigger development community and I wanted the mobile apps.
- Comment on The Google One VPN service is heading to the Google graveyard - The Verge 6 months ago:
I liked that they had special privacy tech other VPNs don’t have but they didn’t allow you to choose the location so it was unusable for me.
I want my VPN location to be my actual location so that the weather app doesn’t mess up and show the wrong city.
- Comment on Which OS do you use for your homeserver? 9 months ago:
I’m running FreeBSD I actually like it a lot.
I picked it for zfs. A lot of the ways things work seem cleaner and simpler than on Linux and zfs is awesome with the copy on write snapshots and filesystem compression and all that. I like rc.conf and pf is way nicer than iptables and even when you upgrade it automatically makes a snapshot so you can rollback.
Sometimes I do need to patch and compile things because people seem to not know freebsd exists but that’s really the only downside.
