People who care about the environment should probably be breeding this things on a large scale and releasing them in heavily populated areas.
I’m not even a member of lemm.ee and was aware of it closing today*

But the rebadged Honda vehicles are always sub-par
Cause they weren’t Hondas.
Makes me wonder why they do it? Why put your badge on something that is objectivity worse than what you can do?
I assume it’s to test the market for viability or something, but it just devalues the brand and makes me less willing to consider it even if a “real” one is released.
I’m on Tildes, and it’s a good site for discussion without the constant memes and accusations of everyone being a communist / not communist / slightly communist / whatever else seems to get thrown around on Lemmy.
Not real sure why RIF dude chose that site to write an app for though. The site itself is basically exactly the same as the app. Very clean, very simple, no wasted space. It’s even better than old.reddit at prioritising content over pretty pictures.
Lemmy would benefit much more from a RIF app, even if Voyager and the like do a pretty good job as it stands.
Pros:
• Unbeatable bang for buck (a luxury sedan that does 0-100kph in 3.8 seconds for under 70kAUD including on roads!)
• Stupidly comfortable to drive (no noise, no rattles, all the bells and whistles)
• Cheap to run, especially if you charge at home. I use a smart plug with the supplied granny charger so it only charges during free or cheap power times. This means the most it will cost to fill my “tank” - even assuming it only charges in the cheap period with no free usage at all - costs the equivalent of 1c per kilometre.
• Cheap to service (about $150 per 20,000k for the Performance model, less for the lower spec versions)
• No noise or stink if you’re parked waiting somewhere. I really notice how obnoxious my diesel is by comparison if I’m outside it.
Cons:
• Everyone else is so damn slow to take off by comparison. It’s just a constant source of frustration being stuck behind old sootybois paddling through their gears as their oil burner slowly gets to a point where it makes enough torque to get moving, only to run out of rpm and have to do it all over again using a new ratio.
• Doing stuff like touching fuel bowsers feels about a million times more disgusting now, and spending $100 AUD in one go to only travel 600k (or less) is rage inducing.
• Car noises in general are crazy frustrating now. It’s just constantly some revving, or backfiring, or turbo whooshes, or engines screaming, or some other unnecessary audible pollution. When I was participating I didn’t notice as much, but now that we’re rolling dead silent it’s really obvious.
ETA: because apparently it’s not immediately obvious: /s
I can’t stand that you have to add a /s to an obviously sarcastic comment just because no one in currentyear can apply critical thinking skills.
I wanted a Model 3, but by the time I could afford to buy the Performance model it turned out Musk was a dickhead. Couldn’t bring myself to buy something with his aura around it, no matter how good or goodn’t the car itself might be.
Then I found the BYD Seal - which also comes in a Performance model - for a comparative price. Also it comes with a HUD and indicators+wipers on stalks. And its subjectively a better looking car anyway.
So I bought one. Now every time Musk does something stupid I can say “wow, what a dickhead” and not feel like I’m letting “”“my team”“” down.
But for some reason every time Tesla fails to deliver, their stock price goes up?
Then when BYD delivers what Tesla promised, it’s Tesla’s stock price that goes up again.
Like every other announcement of something that’s %100$ definitely going to happen from this bloke, I’ll believe it when I see it.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me every quarter since 2016…
Seems like everything Tesla announces is a vague hand wave and a “trust me” of late.
My personal feeling is that they’ve underestimated other manufacturer’s progress and are making announcements too far ahead of their ability to deliver them just to appear like they’re still competitive.
But again… why be mad at China? They are making big investments in their own people and industries to boost their own country’s abilities and better their future.
Meanwhile the US is just trying to hamstring the rest of the world instead of doing better.
They’re living the American dream y’all used to aspire to.
How come people get mad at the Chinese Government for assisting in building their industries, rather than getting mad at their own Governments for NOT assisting in building theirs?
tl/dr: The average person will be very reluctant to use Lemmy.
Sounds like a positive to me.
I don’t know if I trust the average person anymore.
Dunno about the person I was replying to, but I was assuming they were lazy. And potentially stupid, but mostly the laziness was the critique.
“Oh no, I clicked the button and it didn’t do what I thought it would. Oh well, I give up! My time is too precious to try any sort of critical thinking. I’ll just post on reddit instead. Updoots to the left, thanks for the gold kind stranger. Dopamine boost achieved.”
TIL that expecting a tiny slither of effort from participants is “elitist”
Now that’s more like it!
I could write a book on the disastrous experience with our fleet of Vitos. Suffice to say we will never consider any Mercedes product again.
Like the Volkswagen ID.Buzz, Kia’s PV5 looks more like a minibus. At 4,695 mm long, 1,895 mm wide, and 1,899 mm tall, Kia’s passenger electric van is slightly smaller than the European ID.Buzz model (4,712 mm long, 1,985 mm wide, 1,937 mm tall).
Its a pity the only EVs that are getting announced are small, and aimed purely at the people mover market. I guess because service vans are usually bought based on price, and BEV is just not enough available power to cart a tonne of gear around over long distances.
I’m looking to replace our diesel service vans (mix of Toyota HiAces and Hyundai iLoads) and I want to go up a little in size, not down to the tune of 500mm or more.
Come on BYD, take that Shark 6 idea and make a van out of it. The Whale 6. I’ll take half a dozen.

I’ve run Nextcloud since OwnCloud was the only option, with zero issues on any setup - be it direct, via snap, or via docker.
(EDIT: Out of interest I looked up the first subdomain I can remember using - it sent my username the login details in February 2015 so that’s over a decade now!).
On a cheap VPS, a dedicated box, and now self hosted since I finally have a decent enough connection to support it. Ran out of storage on the VPS, then the 4TB dedicated box, now on 120TB self hosted (Nextcloud only using around 6TB mind you). CPU and RAM were never an issue.
Mostly documents (PDF, ODS, ODT), photos and videos from jobs, and some people (myself included) use the storage to back up their phone gallery.
I use shared and private folders, shared and private calendars, and shared and private contact lists on Android, iOS, and PCs (Windows and Linux). I have a public upload directory for customers to send us files and often share files directly using expiring read only links.
It’s easy and it works, no idea wtf people are doing to have so much drama with it.
