More efficient manufacturing, falling battery costs and intense competition are lowering sticker prices for battery-powered models to within striking distance of gasoline cars.
Maybe these cars don’t classify as SUVs by some metric, but they are definitely not small. Every vehicle in the US has gotten bigger in the last decade and EVs are no exception.
OK, I’ll bring receipts. Literally none of the battery EVs sold in the US in the past 4 years even register as “small cars.” Compare that to the rest of the world where they’re nearly a quarter of the market.
Dang, I don’t like heavy use of the shoulder buttons as those tend to be the first to go. I do want to check it out. As far as fullscreen goes, not sure, but maybe it’s two different resolution options like with Virtual Console games?
I always got the feeling that this game was seen as a classic. I never owned a Gamecube growing up, but I’m pretty sure I remember my friend having one and playing Sunshine a bit (although he was way more into Zelda and Smash)....
This also set a huge precedent for legal cases around AI image generation, didn’t it? Since that also falls under “works not created by a human” and are therefore not copyrightable. We could have been dealing with a much bleaker AI art law situation than we have today because of this funny monkey photo case.
Okay so the explanation for "Under the Silver Lake" was so obvious (I thought) that I was waiting for the reveal, and then it never came, and then I looked up explanations online, and they also didn't arrive at the same explanation. So with significant spoilers in mind, here is my theory:...
I’m glad people got something out of the movie and enjoyed pouring through it for secrets, but I’m firmly in the camp of none of it is supposed to make sense and have an answer, but people will assign meaning to any little mundane thing they find and that’s the point.
That’s the Wikipedia bias. The vast majority of pages are written and maintained by a small number of people with a Western Centrist perspective, which tends to be more conservative. You start to notice it more once you see it for the first time.
Call it whatever you want, but all I see is a weirdly unexpected avenue for potential solidarity against a major arms manufacturer. Hell, I’ll call it woke if it helps turn Americans against the fuckers building bombs.

Trump wants to ban all EV sales despite what Americans want.
Biden wants to ban China EV sales despite what Americans want.
About what we can expect from this stupid fucking election.
No, you’re right. The worst of my concerns is Biden’s insistence on making us complicit in a brutal genocide for a fascist foreign power.
Needlessly doubling the price of electric cars and bikes, collecting the difference as a tax on lower income Americans who would have most benefited from these much cheaper forms of personal transportation, while also posing as the environmentalist candidate, is just one example of the crock of shit we’re expected to participate in this year. Let’s just acknowledge that Biden is only here to defend and uphold billionaires, in this case, the ones who own the US car industry.
Israel wholly owns the US. It would be humiliating to the Biden administration if they weren’t in on the deal. Upholding the military industrial complex is priority number one for every president in history. Literally nothing is more important.
Nonsense. There are plenty of examples of cool-toned films featuring black actors. Moonlight is the obvious example. With proper lighting and modern color grading techniques, this is a bad excuse for exclusively casting white people in movies.
And you don’t have to make up excuses for Burton. He can tell you himself why he doesn’t feature people of color in his movies.
I’m saying both you and Burton have shit excuses for not casting non-white actors. Calling the representation of non-white actors something to “shoehorn” into a film means both of you consider white skin the default, which is at least ignorant of reality if not racist.
And it’s easier to make white people look like corpses? What a weird statement. As if Tim Burton shoots on a sub-indie budget that can’t afford makeup and lighting, where worrying about the shade of an actor’s skin is even a factor when you have the resources of major film studios to achieve any look a director desires.
Lastly, Burton being “goth” is maybe the funniest reason you’ve provided so far. My dude, have you ever been to a Goth Night at a club? I guarantee you’ll find that’s a subculture just as popular with people of color as it is for white folks.
If Biden and his remaining cabinet had any self awareness, they’d be utterly humiliated. Like how do you not feel even a little shame when the entire world watches you try to defend a fucking monster?
This is Microsoft, an American corporation, actively developing the things the Internet spazzes out about China probably doing. How happy this makes China? Buddy, imagine how happy this makes every marketing company in the world, your local police department, and your own government, all of which have a much more vested interest in everything you do on your computer and are considerably more of a threat to you than the ruling party of a country on the other side of the planet. Seriously, y’all need to get your fucking priorities in order. It’s borderline satire how fast your average Lemmy user slaps the China Panic button as soon as a privacy-related issue hits their front page.
