This is bad for us too, because cars were already being developed with NACS since CCS “lost the war” in the US. What kind of uptake will those cars have with a network that has completely stopped growing because manbaby decided to take his toys and go home?
The auto manufacturers will blame everything but the fact that most EVs are overpriced and overcomplicated to compensate for them being ultra-reliable and no longer in need of constant maintenance. This country already killed EVs once, don’t put it past capitalism to try a second time.
Hello, I’ve been receiving this notice from voyager and wanted to hesr your thoughts. I don’t understand the tech side of this at all. But, I’m curious if you have plans to update, or if I should find a new client to view beehaw. Thanks!...
FWIW I have the Voyager PWA installed on my phone and despite daily messages that support ended two days ago, I can still browse Lemmy. I don’t plan on updating, in case that is what finally breaks it.
edit: as of March 22, Voyager stopped showing me content on any server with 18.x software, including my login credentials, which I can only assume means it is useless for browsing Lemmy. Edited with Memmy on iOS.
Hey Business Insider, I missed your previous article “Frequent/Long-Term use of the smart phone may rewire our brains in unexpected ways”
(This is not criticism of OP, I just think the premise by BI is silly when we are currently reaping the effects of smart phone addiction and ubiquity.)
Technology addiction is very real but I’m not worried about the $3,500 headset that will never reach consumer saturation at that price point. Be careful out there with anything you buy or consume.
The data found about 68 per cent of car shoppers in 2022 who did not own an EV showed an intent to purchase one, but that dropped to 56 per cent this year.
I am with you! I first dipped my toe into the EV pool in 2020 when gas was at a modern era low, so EVs weren’t exactly flying off dealer lots. I only drove my ICE to keep the gas from going bad. Ended up selling the ICE and buying a second EV with a bigger battery and longer range. I’ve taken it on four road trips since March, and people don’t know what to think when I tell them I pay less for a full charge than most people do a single gallon of gas.
I think the best way to shift the apprehension is that home charging is the future, and you really only need to worry about infrastructure when you are going out of town. It’s a lot easier to put chargers on lampposts than it is to put gas stations every few miles, but oil lobbyists are making sure everyone is absolutely terrified of electrification.
This game seems difficult, weapons and shield constantly break. I am always out of stamina and keep dying. I am afraid to roam around, so no open world for me. Any tips, would be appreciated.
If fighting out in the open is not your cup of tea, you need to get to the shrines as soon as possible to unlock some very valuable tools. Remember that enemies can see and hear you, so if you want to sneak around encounters, keep an eye on that pink squiggly line for how much noise you are making. And above all else there is no right or wrong way to play this game.
I’m not sure what you’re saying here … 1.6 is an upcoming full game update for Stardew that will add even more content, which he was simultaneously developing with Haunted Chocolatier. They are a very small independent operation, and game development takes more time the fewer employees you have. The fact that they have continued improving the game for 7 years adding free content at the original price point is actually quite remarkable.
The 1.6 update addresses the ability to create add-ons (mods) more easily, which will aid efforts in the modding community to create things like Expanded with less fussing about in third party programs and tools which currently allow them to work.
I’m curious how people play multiplayer games on the steam deck: online and offline. I want to get into them but I am not sure how sound this goal is right now.

Just because a game says it won’t work on Deck doesn’t mean it is true. They just haven’t tested thousands of games to verify compatibility. Sometimes it is as easy as getting and selecting a very specific Proton version, but other more involved fixes may be necessary. When in doubt, search “[game] + Steam Deck” to see if someone else has tried and succeeded (or failed).
Internet service providers and their lobby groups are fighting a US plan to prohibit discrimination in access to broadband services. In particular, ISPs want the Federal Communications Commission to drop the plan’s proposal to require that prices charged to consumers be non-discriminatory.
Just a reminder that much of the US has local elections on Tuesday. Local government matters a lot - things like zoning and building codes, decisions about walkability and bikeability, mass transit, whether science is taught truthfully, and the right to have your vote counted at all are on the ballot in many places.
These off-season elections are still important for a variety of reasons, including those that OP posted, but also some locales have already enacted voter registration pruning policies where if you fail to participate in X elections, they can remove your active voter status. Imagine not being eligible to vote for president in 2024 because you thought the local school bond issue wasn’t important this year.
Register for early mail-in voting if you are able – they send your ballot to your house, along with guidebooks for the issues on the ballot. If that is not enough (or not provided by your state), find publicly-funded or nonprofit articles on the issues, such as PBS, NPR, or Ballotpedia to give you the rundown of the legalese they sometimes use to confuse the voting public. When you have voted (read the instructions carefully, you don’t want your vote thrown out because you forgot to sign the envelope, or missed a deadline), you just stick it in the provided return mailer and drop it off at any outgoing mail box, or even a ballot dropoff in some places.
Additionally, ignore those road signs you see from July to November. They are massively funded by both sides, and often reduce important issues to tiny memorable phrases and/or fear responses.
just kidding I was on the old app at the time and the new one won’t even show me all the comments in this post, nor any new posts in the Memmy community. This was not ready for release ☹️
edit 2: the app but also none of my web instances are showing new posts at !memmy BUT the comments on this post are still not loading. I can only see this comment through my own account page. Load more comments only shows 3 out of the 9 total and I confirmed nobody in this thread is on my block list so no clue why the comments are not showing. iOS 17.1 on iPhone 15 if the devs manage to see this.
Unsure if this is sarcasm or not, but the name of this instance is also what IKEA calls that stuffed animal - BLÅHAJ (pronounced blow high, translates directly to blue shark).
I’m not sure you’re referencing the correct statistic related to the main takeaway of this article. Nissan EV owners were the second-highest group after Tesla (63.2%) to buy another EV, they were just low on model loyalty, not switching back to an ICE.
So I have two coworkers who I want to help out with a problem. They have to collaborate on upgrades in a old factory, and they both use the same excel spreadsheet to keep track of the to-do list....
Office365 Excel documents offer realtime cloud syncing, but at a minimum I believe autosave is a standard feature in Excel now as well. Enabling one or both should rectify pretty quickly and seems like the lowest-tech solution for them.
I eat lunch in the cafeteria at work. Sometimes i like to watch videos of cats doing funny things on youtube during my break. The thing is, i don’t wear headphones and sometimes people give me looks. AITA for watching videos in the cafeteria without headphones?
Yes. If you are ever in a shared space, public or otherwise, it is common courtesy to use headphones. You don’t need to have $100+ BT headphones, they still make the wired $5-10 versions and you won’t get looks anymore.
