I’ll honestly buy a Toyota, Honda or Hyundai before I ever buy a GM.
The first two are built here in North America and give jobs directly to my friends.
GM and fuck off an die. They’ve turned out turds for 30 years now and don’t deserve to be helped to stay afloat.
The only legacy NA car manufacturer I’d consider is Ford.
But yeah, you’d be a goof to invest in a Tesla vehicle at this point.
I wonder how China feels about Russia being so chummy with North Korea.
Looks like Russia and NK are baiting the West into conflict… Does China really want that?
2017
At 50 tons and 700 kilowatt-hours, this truck is the biggest EV in the world Each round trip will generate 10kWh of spare electricity for the grid.
I’m pretty sure they’ve been doing this for years in South America already.
But the large swatch of incel’s that voted for Trump aren’t going to be affect by this.
Which is exactly why everyone is disappointed with this election.
It’s not disappointment with what the dems did or didn’t do.
It’s the disappointment now knowing that America is dumber than initially expected and more out of touch of what’s actually happening around them.
taiwan
fuck… didn’t even consider that till now…
Even with Trump, the US military complex will just NOT let TSMC to be taken away from them.
But as soon as foundries are done and producing on US soil… then ya… pray for Taiwan, because US won’t have a good reason to risk direct conflict with China over that island.
No one is making a compelling argument by burning anything.
The only purpose of the burning is to incite negative reaction.
No different than those moron’s that throw shit on art. Their message is lost in the noise of being an asshole.
If dude was burning a Quran in their own back yard because they needed a fire starter for their campfire, no one would give a shit.
It’s not the burning that’s the crime, it’s the being an asshole in public and trying to incite violence.
I’m not sure why American’s can’t differentiate freedom of speech/expression without the need to be an asshole about it.
Join the global strike that would inevitably happen.
Less bots, less adverts.
Seriously, half the posts/discussions/replies on Reddit aren’t even real.
SubredditSimulator leaked out all over Reddit a long time ago.
People are kinder here, overall.
That may be because there aren’t troll bots, stoking the fires, to drum up ‘discussion’ which makes it look good to advertisers that it is an active pool of users.
Did no one see the all the bots around 2015/2016 learning on Reddit?
They would say all sorts of non-sensical stuff as they learned, until there would be a hit or two that would get responses out of people, and it would re-enforce the bot to say more things like that.
Guess what kind of stuff/topics gets a plethora of responses?
The only people who had those pagers were Hezbollah members.
Did they have camera’s in them to know that? and also know about people in the surrounding area?
Hezbollah has been lobbing missiles into Israel, killing civilians including children and forcing an evacuation.
And you think this is the appropriate response to that?
I get the Israeli people are absolutely tired of this shit. But what makes them think that kind of response isn’t going to do anything other than bolster the other sides hatred/resolve?
As they indiscriminately kill more, they are recruiting more to the cause. When someone loses their kids/brother/father/home/etc. That just makes them having nothing more to lose, and join the war. People don’t want to fight. People just want to live their lives.
Israel is the one with all the weapons/tech/money in this. If the Israeli people are tired of this shit, they need to look at a leader who’s not going to perform actions that just increases Hezbollah’s and Hamas’s numbers.
Wait… what?
I’m I reading that right?
12 people killed. 6 of which were 2 children and 4 healthcare workers.
But 2,800 wounded? So all of that wasn’t even about neutralizing targets, but maiming?
How many were set off? I have a hard time believing a 12killed : 2800wounded ratio…
EDIT: Google says bout 5000 pagers
CNN: reports 37killked but 3,000 wounded.
I’m still flabbergasted that there hasn’t been more of an international outrage concerning those pagers.
The use of mines as an indiscriminate weapon are already frowned upon,
And here they are using them, scattered throughout a civilian population with absolutely no regard to who could be standing next to their target.
Un-fucking believable.
For FUCK sakes…
I have a 256GB SATA SSD machine here, that I want to put a fresh install of windows on a 1TB M.2
And NOW is the fucking time windows puts out this fucking Win11 24H2 garbage… that’s BSOD’ing peoples computers, having other issues, and now this.
I’ve had no need to return to Reddit at all.
Using mbin at fedia.io,
I have access to Lemmy (Reddit-like) and Mastodon (Twitter-like)
I grew very tired of Reddit’s Bot-Spam and AI-bot drivel, over 50% of the shit you see/read on Reddit is copy-pasta old shit or completely fabricated.
Save a few $ in gas
But pay Trillions $$$ in lost infrastructure, clean up, emergency response
I moved to fedia.io because it is basically kbin.social, but working.
I’m on Fedia.io
Which is both Fediverse and Mastodon.
