  • Tesla’s reasoning for going away with a method universally used for signaling turn for decades is that it enables them to remove a physical part, the stalk, and it believes activating a turn signal will soon be unnecessary with the advent of self-driving.

    Why the hell do billionaires keep laughing in our faces? I swear every time one of them or their companies opens their mouth, it’s like they’re making fun of us, the poor people.

    “We care about your privacy” — (they don’t) “a turn signal will soon be unnecessary” etc.





  • I hate modern electric cars not because they don’t have a gas guzzling engine, but because of the fact they’re “modern” (proprietary software connected to the cellular network).

    But of course, Trump only said this because all of his supporters drive gas guzzling behemoths of steel to compensate for something. And, of course, telling someone to rot in hell just because of a type of vehicle they like makes him seem like an incredibly mentally stable person…





  • The free upgrade part is not the thing that upsets me, if you even bothered to read the context. It’s the fact that you may not be able to upgrade an old machine to Windows 11 by “traditional means” (clicking a button), because Microsoft deems it “unsupported”, which the above commenter disproved by saying they were able to install it even on this “unsupported” hardware.

    Don’t mean to disrespect, but I recommend you read the context before you start rolling your eyes and calling people names. Applies to real life too. Have a good day!










  • You put paper filing and cash society on the “bad” list. It’s like it’s wrong for people without an internet connection or privacy conscious people to file stuff. “Pls use our brand-spanking new web UI that loads a shit ton of Javascript and steals your data on top of it!” Oh and cash society. No, why would anyone want to pay in a privacy-conscious way. Naw man, pay with a card…
