  • The thing is, if only 27% drive in electric mode, that indicates deeper problems. If it was possible for people to easily charge their vehicles, most would use electricity, it’s way cheaper. The fact they aren’t indicates that the infrastructure just isn’t there. Most people don’t live in the suburbs, and I don’t know for other countries but here like 70% of parking is done on the street or on open parking lots. Even in larger garages, I don’t think there’s a single one here with more than a token 4-5 charging stations. We have to first fix that before electric cars become viable for the majority of people. If this bans normal ICE cars but leaves plug-in hybrids I think that’s actually fine, since as infrastructure improves these cars will become more and more like full EVs.






  • Interesting, my experience was the opposite. I tried multiple gnome based distros, but I always hated it. Was ready to try and accept it to use Linux, but then I finally tried KDE and it felt like such a breath of fresh air. Granted, I haven’t used it much yet, but from the little I did, I love it so much more than gnome in every way.


  • Tried Fedora KDE just recently, and apparently the latest version broke something and you just get a black screen on some laptops, fresh install and all. Found some random ISO someone posted and that one worked, but kinda crazy it’s been over a month that this is known to not work and the official ISO is still borked









  • Kids today: We. Are. Literally. Dying. McDonald’s is SO expensive!

    It’s not that we olds think you deserve to suffer because we did, but… we did… Kinda hard to entertain modern complaints.

    I mean, I’m sad you had to live like that, but that doesn’t mean young people shouldn’t complain either. It’s insane that in the west in the 1990s, let alone in 2025, anyone would be forced to live like that. We have the resources to do better than that, and many countries do, but the US is a broken economic system since the Reagan era.

    Yeah, from everything that I saw and I was watching WAN Show regularly at that time, and from the posts that I saw and the explanations that they made, it mostly seems that LTT had a problem of growing too big, too fast, management was still in the mindset that they were a small company with a few people, they just didn’t grow correctly, and that came to bite them in the ass. They say they’ve tried to improve on this, and that they are better nowadays, that’s to be seen. But either way, this didn’t seem like malice, and the way GN doubled down just left a very bad taste in my mouth.
