I have that in my ICE car and I never use it (map of gas stations correlated with remaining fuel). That’s not specific to an EV.

Any of those features can be in a smartphone attached to your dashboard. Sure you have some benefits in accessing the car data, but they are small.

Unfortunately boring distributions don’t get recommended because users of boring distributions don’t bother commenting on distribution discussions.

And it’s really unfortunate that obscure distributions have more vocal fans, because boring distributions are much better for beginners.

My car (Citroën) has a contact less key, I don’t have to get it out of my pocket and the car automatically opens.

But it still includes a small physical key to open the car when the battery (of the car or key) is dead.

Luckily not even the Cybertruck is immune to those

Don’t try zsh, because you won’t be able to go back to bash after that 😉

GOOG-411 was created specifically for Google to gather voice samples, with different ages, accents, etc. to train voice recognition. It was never for the sake of providing a service.

In France installing a charger in appartement building is mandatory if the resident asks for it, even if they’re renting.

In France if you have a parking spot, you have a legal right to get a plug there even if you’re renting.

It doesn’t fix the problem for people with no parking who do only street parking, but people who can’t afford a parking spot rarely buy a shiny new EV to start with.

Just buy one if you need. I don’t understand people who prefer forced bundles over deciding what to buy.

Unless you think an included charger is free. It’s not, it’s factored in the price.

Also when Mac went from PPC to x86

Use Firefox if you want but don’t donate to Mozilla. Money doesn’t go to Firefox development anyway.

Also if they can afford to pay their CEO $3 millions a year, they don’t need your donations.

It’s probably replacing garbage written by humans that nobody was reading either.

So in this case, garbage content that nobody reads, AI is probably a good idea.

Read the article. Her mom agreed to it, and they set rules. It’s after that that it went bad.

This is only useful if you’re not using your own cable. Otherwise you can simply use a “power only” cable.

I thought the Apple network and the new Android network work together? Meaning it just work just as well as an apple tag

It’s still a good joke!

Just read to the top comment saying it’s profitable to replace them anyway.

Nothing in particular, for the past few years I didn’t like the direction Ubuntu was taking but I stayed because I was too lazy to switch and it didn’t feel that bad.

So I’m not sure exactly what was the last straw, maybe part of it was me getting a Steam Deck, discovering flatpak and understanding how bad snap was compared to it.

It just works, just like Ubuntu before they started pushing snap down everyone’s throat (which is what made me switch eventually.)

I had a bad image of RedHat/Fedora’s package management from the time deb was much superior, but no they caught up and are on the same level (I know, it’s probably been a while).

I also like how they mostly package upstream without too many changes. When Ubuntu started upstream was a bit lacking so making changes was necessary to get something that looks like a consistent OS rather than a patchwork of packages, but now it’s no longer needed. Ubuntu is no longer the only distribution with that level of polish.
