You mean the ICONIC 5? That’s an SUV. A small one
There is no one solution. This is an all on the table problem. Everything will contribute. Things should stop being framed as solutions.
A better phrasing would be “whether it’ll be a part of the climate solution.”
That may be true. I’ve had my car for 10 years now. It’s a 2012 Accord I bought used in 2015. So I’ve been out of the market for some time. I’ve been looking at used Bolts, they’re in the upper teens.
New cars have always been a luxury good.
They’ve never been “affordable” to the bottom 40% of Americans.
Lower income households have always bought used cars. That’s how the market works.
It sounds like you’re thinking there is no way to compete with Reddit. If you charge, people will use Reddit. If you have ads, people will use Reddit. People are only here because there aren’t ads and it’s free?
If you charge, you also have to offer a better experience than the free options. There’s no reason instances can’t use ads for people unwilling or unable to pay. For me I’ll gladly pay for an ad-free experience.
That’s not really how it works. If it was made to work that way, it would still be a relatively small group donating their own compute resources to subsidize everyone else. Which is what we already have, and isn’t very scalable.
The only real option is to charge people.
Hosting isn’t free. It costs money to run a website. That money needs to come from somewhere. If it doesn’t come from advertisers, it must come from users.
There could be a verity options for that. But I like the simple annual subscription. Each and every user pays. Spread out the cost as much as possible. It’s only fair.
We need to work on permitting of New plants. Not new construction of Old plants.
But I get it, Don likes towers.
Of course if one truly can’t afford it, paying for search can seem a luxury.
However I would argue as a counterpoint; If there’s any online service one would consider paying for, it should be search. Search is most literally our “front page to the internet”. It’s our first stop in any quest for information. Even the founders of Google knew early on, that putting adds in search creates a perverse incentive against the best results, favoring instead worse results, so people perform more searches, creating more opportunities to show people adds.
$5 a month isn’t much to know your query will give the results you want, instead of the results advertisers want.
Do you mean Reddit the company, or the Reddit the community?
I think the answers are “No”, and “A little. It often gets deleted when mentioned.”
Part of me hates myself for asking this. You clearly put a lot of effort into this.
Why? There are at least a couple actual blogging options with ActivityPub support. Why try to force Lemmy into something it isn’t.
They really were quite different.
Data never had emotions. He tried to understand and fake them as he could, but without feeling it, could never get there.
Android on the other hand had emotions, just not the human like mannerisms to fully express them.
So when they got their modifications, their reactions were quite different. Data finally experienced the emotions he was always chasing for. While Android was finally able to fully express what she always felt.
They’re both interesting stories. I guess I enjoyed Android’s more. Data became kind of annoying until he got the hang of things.
Does that include high-speed rail projects?
That’s what the local feed is for.
I’m constantly surprised by people who don’t seem to understand what ALL means.
You’re speculating that Kagi is actually astroturfing on Lemmy. That’s why I asked for an account you believe to be doing it on Kagi’s behalf.
So yah, the social media manager or marketing agency is getting paid. People organically posting because they genuinely like the service, aren’t. The former would be advertising. The later not.
Can you point to any accounts you think are doing Kagi astroturfing. IE being paid to advertise with. Because now it just sounds like you’re speculating.
Is she into me, or is she just being weird? Because usually when women do this to me, they’re being weird. But I’ve heard this is what they do when they’re into a guy. So I don’t know, but probably not.
