I’m still mad we lost sport sedans for this EPA bs.

Everything is a crossover or SUV to gg ez the emission laws because of the weight class.

Random 5 seater SUV will be producing more emissions than a WRX or Evo Lancer.

Yeah Uber (thankfully lol) actually died in a ton of countries because of this.

Either government sponsored or just local competition that actually pays well.

There’s even tiered niches for each app that go for quality/speed etc, so no one app becomes supreme.

I know lol, but it also doesn’t mean anyone who is opposing the meme isn’t one either.

I’ve seen my fair share of educated/intellectual people deny the circumstances of the Bengali genocide for decades until the Pakistani army went lunatic a couple of years ago and confirmed what was previously considered exaggerated fiction.

Tbf though, I’m fairly sure Tankman made it out alive without a scratch, but that overlooks the people who actually died in Tiananmen.

Not that the US is going to fare any better, especially with the empire beginning to crumble.

The funny thing is gig work (proportionally) makes a lot more in plenty of 3rd wold countries because the business owner isn’t taking a massive chunk of the income, and because it started out with everyone paying cash so there’s no shoehorned services fees at every transaction.

Its so lucrative that I’ve seen office workers run it as bonus income on their way to and from work if they travel by car or motorcycle.

I always thought about making a free equivalent platform to stuff like Uber, but I think people would be too scared of the individual liability, despite Uber offering the absolute bare minimum.

I like how this comments sections is ml people fighting with ml people, as well as Chinese nationals fighting with Chinese nationals over what really happend.

While Toyota and Honda at least have an acclaimed history in low cost and efficient vehicles, Ford is literally 1/3rd the the reason the US doesn’t manufacture sedans anymore, with the other 2/3rds being GM and Chrysler.

I actually witnesses them layoff their entire sedan division in real time when they announced the end of the fusion. I’m pretty sure it was mostly liquidated by the time covid hit.

There’s a user here doing just that but linking the artist and original in the post text content which started a flame war lol.

To figure out what type of adhesive/glue you need to attach x material to y material

Its like comparing the Federation and the Empire from elite dangerous lol.

Empire elitists always talking about how bad the Federation is because of the insane capitalist abuse of power, and billions of humans subjected to horrific conditions.

And then Federation liberals talking about how the Empire literally has legalized slavery and a monarchy that runs on the death of humans.

Although technically there’s also the stereotypical Asian CEO who has a 15% discount on all ships and modules in his systems, so I guess that’s probably the successor to Ali Express lol.

That all being said, the post above this is an article trying to explain how China plating 78 billion trees was a bad idea lmao.

They bought into the colonial system from their very existence. Most of the GCC started out as British backed insurgents against the Ottman empire.

Once they kicked the Ottomans out, they all established hard monarchies to solidify political power, and outsourced their security to the British, who took immediate advantage of the massive oil reserves discovered in the region.

Post WWII, after the British empire collapsed, they transitioned to the US under the same deal.

They make trillions of dollars through oil sold only in USD, which they reinvest into the US economy. The US gets to dictate their foreign policy and use them however they please in exchange.

The benefactors are exclusively the royal families and their friends, which is why KSA and UAE are notorious for human trafficking and exploited foreign labor because they spend none of that money on actually developing their nation’s societies.

They had multiple opportunities not to enter such an exploitable system, but they chose not to, with the grand exception being Iran, which was the only successful overthrow of a US/UK imposed government.

I didn’t mean for FOSS projects actually, I meant the bug bounties run by silicon valley giants lol.

FOSS bug reports are done either out of love or spite lmao.

Gamenative is absolutely sick but Android is also a PITA for handhelds these days. The kernels are always dated, the task management sucks, the UX sucks, and everything has to be ported into an APK with cruddy Android API mappings.

I have Rocknix dual boot on my AYN Thor, and it is so much easier to run native emulators on linux then to run the Android counterparts, which are guaranteed to be missing features or are out of date with upstream releases.

I don’t want to shame the user, but there was a recent discussion thread on npmplus where someone was using a compose file generated by an LLM and was confused why the hallucinated env variables weren’t working.

The kicker is that npmplus literally gives you a comprehensive and complete compose file with every optional setting commented out with a brief description, so you can just copy and edit to your desire.

Which of course the LLM decided to ignore anyway and come up with its own config options lol.

On a somewhat related note, I feel like bug bounties these days have become sort of under subsidized for well developed applications. All the medium and lower findings payouts are pretty fair, but lots of the high/critical bounties seem a lot less than what I would expect, especially compared to some of the huge prize pools I’ve seen at some conventions (upwards of 50k USD).

I have no idea how much they fetch on the black market, but it seems weird to me that something like an RCE receives less than 10k, which could easily be utilized by some APT to net millions in a more sophisticated ransomware attack.

Ask IT to make their DCs public facing /s

Yeah honestly I look kinda dumb in retrospect lol. I forgot even the Houthis manged to constrict the red sea with an order of magnitude less munitions.

Even better, they even blew up some GCC oil refineries with massive economic effect.

Really holding out on Motorolla to add their announced GrapheneOS support because I want my funni flip phone lol

It depends whether or not they left the DNS setting unlocked, which is actually highly likely.

Would have to use a public server, but it should in theory work.

It only cost the livelihood of 260 million people, but the ISI has successfully joined hands with Mossad to put Trump on their payroll. And only for the purpose of publicly demeaning India /s

I’ve been trialing Vaultwarden for a while and while I do like the server sync setup and clean web access, the Bitwarden browser plugin is just okay despite being an “enterprise” solution. It misses probably about 20% of websites when creating a new account, forcing you to grab the password from the generator history and make a new entry manually.

KeepassXC is much better in that regard, and it’s almost as good as the default credential handler of Firefox, and it lets you set up a bunch of custom stuff to extend the functionality if you want. Plus it has some neat kbdx options aside from AES256.

Only downside is syncing, which I’m debating how I’ll deal with something better than syncthing on android (protocol is great, android makes it a PITA to have a background process if its not Google spyware).

You mean physically or the software input stuff?

Haven’t tried the steam deck, but I grew up on the DS Dpad so anything that can’t handle 8 direction input with minimal movement is a complete turn off for me.
