Bullshit, neither are true for most people in the US.
Why did you type out “what is” when “what’s” is shorter and as clear?
and did you really need that “just” in there?
ah yes, for professionals
The champion must be an officer of the company or a board member tho. No regular workers.
what the FUCK is wrong with people
no prevent only punish
Ah yeah I did misread you. My apologies.
Though I don’t quite agree that EVs are getting more tech than ICE counterpaets. Remember BMW’s scandal around subscription heated seats? That definitely was not an EV-specific or EV-biased thing. That’s only one example, of course.
Another is Toyota locking remote start behind a subscription - when the remote start was entirely over local radio signals between the car and the keyfob. Definitely not an EV issue.
Or, multiple automakers being caught spying on drivers and selling the data. Much broader than EVs.
On another note, EVs are better for noise, pollution, and climate but they still emit brake dust and tire particles, and they weigh more so they cause a bit more wear and tear on roads. More transit and less cars is vitally necessary, and that includes EVs, so I hope I’m not an EV zealot - just been driving the things for eight years and weirded out by bad info about them
This sort of crap has fuck all to do with EVs. Why do so many people seem to think that EVs are being enshittified any more than cars with combustion engines?
Better than damage attribute tho, cuz who the fuck carries around restore attribute potions - can’t even find the damn things for sale most of the time
oh wait this is Oblivion not Morrowind, probably fine
outside the requirements of Florida law
such careful language. maybe something like “against” instead of “outside”
The gall of these motherfuckers is truly astonishing. To be either so incredibly out of touch, or so absolutely shameless, makes me wanna call up every single school bully I ever endured to get their very best bullying tips
nixos
the fucking grift of it all.
tpaying a $60 license fee to pearson just to be able to submit fucking required homework.
I like that way of describing it, a lot.
I shall raise a shot glass of Salmiakki liquor in solidarity later tonight in the sauna
nah I really think you got it wrong.
big companies spend obscene amounts of money and effort researching how to manipulate and influence people effectively so they can make the most profit they can get away with.
a catchy jingle is an obvious example. not really nefarious (i have strong nostalgia for local business jingles and slogans) tho.
dark patterns on websites are a better example. like how it’s really easy to sign up for amazon prime, but canceling amazon prime is impossible to do without having to use a search engine to find the obscure link to the cancellation page.
if you think people influence companies more than the other way wrong, I really gotta urge you to consider another angle.
Fuck Andy Jassy.
