  • all computer is now bad

    Always has been, I don’t want to be fumbling around in settings when I’m driving,

    I have set my car at 21 degrees. It’s now at 91k miles, I have not touched it because it does what I told it to

    Cool story but do you have any friends or family that get in your car and want a different temperature, adjusting AC is a pretty common task for most people. If my dog is in my car i’ll lower it when he starts panting for example.

    People automatically jump at conclusion I’m shilling tesla

    I mean your saying shit like Tesla is objectively better because it is all computer, when that isn’t what most drivers want.

    If you just said you like your Tesla and you like everything being computer, that would be one thing, but you’re insisting that’s it’s better because of the features most people hate but you like and are willing to sacrifice what most people consider more important (suspension & ease of use) so that you get that feature, then claiming all other EVs are worse as if nobody else has used a Tesla and we’re all lying about not liking it.

    But we cannot have an honest conversion

    If you can’t have a conversation with 1 person, that might be them, but if you can’t have an honest conversation with anyone, the problem is probably you.



  • That’s just fact

    Not really suspension is dog shit & everything is computer.

    Most people aren’t Tesla drivers though, my car gets me from A to B when taking public transit would be a pain. Bought a Nissan, smoother ride, all the features I want and physical buttons for everything I touch while driving.

    You can see comments and downvotes here alone

    Have you considered that it’s because you didn’t actually explain what you like about your Tesla in either your original post or here.

    Sure people hate Tesla but your comments don’t give any details on what is good about Tesla, of the 3 EVs i regularly drive/ride in, it’s by far the worst, and one of them is just a pickup truck they put batteries in, but it’s still more comfortable than a Tesla.



  • The majority of the Seats are FPTP, so it’s a common trend to chase the crazies.

    I think we need to blame voters less and systems more, all non-proportional system have a rightwards shift built in.

    In theory this could work leftwardly but as these countries tend to depend heavily on capitalist media to tell voters who is capable of winning in their district, the leftward shift is usually described as unrealistic & impossible, whereas the right shift is usually exaggerated and considered a real threat to the center-right/center-left.

    You see the same effect in the UK, US, Russia (when they had elections), etc.

    Whereas Ireland, Scandanvia, tend to have stable liberal-to-progressive governments rather than flip between a center-left & center-right establishment party that is constantly chasing far right voters.

    I think the best system to counteract this is STV (used in Ireland) as it:

    • Delivers proportional results
    • Removes the need for the media to tell you who can win because you can rank who you like
    • Doesn’t use party-lists (one of the issues with PR is the list system invites corruption as loyalty to the list maker, is what secures your job).







  • Argentina is bearing much of the brunt of rising Chinese imports, as local factories shut down and lay off workers in a manufacturing sector that employs almost a fifth of its workforce.

    Lol, yeah let’s blame China for the failures of AnCaps.

    In most cases, China exports mostly manufactured goods and imports raw materials. But the relationship goes far beyond those basics.

    No shit, it’s called economic imperialism the west has been doing it for decades (pretty much since it violently gave up on regular imperialism). It’s bad but let’s not pretend this is some Chinese innovation.
