I have a shitload more stuff to flog this weekend. Going through the house finding all the tech stuff I have that I don't really use much. Probably $5k worth of gear. I have a filthy shopping habit.

The first search that failed since bing and DDG went down was “big chungus” I thought IT had gone a bit overboard with the content filtering on my work laptop.

Volkswagen: we won’t join EV price war in Australia

Also Volkswagen: and that’s why we’re not here today telling you ID.4 pricing, because there is always opportunity to do better with the pricing, and that’s what we want to do before we announce it.

@spinopsys VW has a 5% disadvantage versus Tesla, MG & BYD too - australia still hasn't got a free trade deal with the EU so car imports from there still have a 5% tariff on em compared to 0% from china, japan, korea, thailand and the usa

@menz soon they'll get rid of the USB port

also eSIMs are a mistake for your primary phone number - making your phone number beholden to an app?? bad idea, good for burner/travel numbers though

@78zeros iPhones in the USA are already eSIM only, seems inevitable that'll happen here too and the others will follow :(

@78zeros another example of keeping us locked in 🤬🤬🤬
