Competition is great, a company that can’t produce a quality product and ships a CAR with beta level software that can’t update OTA is NOT competition.
The auto industry is highly unfavorable to startups, the competition you want will come from the old ICE OEMs.
Because AI is the new because blockchain.
Political extremists, such as yourself, are exhausting.
It’s like talking to a religious fanatic, there’s no reasoning with someone who’s made a decision based on emotion instead of logic.
So why dont we have tarrifs on the ones that are produced in Mexico too?
Mexico is not China.
It is in our best interest to have a stable and economically improving neighbor on our southern border.
Your all or nothing / black or white view of the world is extremely childish & naive. Simple solutions to complex problems are just how politicians manipulate those who don’t want to think to hard. Stop pretending that global trade policy is a simple solution arena & try thinking a little harder.
The GameCube being your favorite console has a lot more to do with your age, than anything to do with the console.
Same reason the NES is my all time favorite.
I’m not pretending.
I’m pointing out the flaw it the whining.
There’s a lot of should and shouldn’t statements that are just wish fulfillment and not reality.
Now that you’re done bitching about the housing crisis…what’s your actual proposed solution?
Should we take the home from the guy renting you that apartment so you can have it? Force lower rents, leaving him unmotivated to bother renting it?
What’s your point beyond rents are too high? We all know there’s a problem, how do you propose we fix it, because landlords aren’t the root of the issue but this whole thread seems to want to pretend they are.
Ok, then don’t.
Go find another place to live.
I’m well aware of both, been in the industry for over 20 years.
But you still don’t seem to comprehend the cost or difficulty of the change.
Frankly the support options don’t seem very good either.
Deployment is not even half the battle, ongoing support is where the troubles really come out.
The staffing, the network and storage changes.
The suggestion to just use KVM and ansible is rather tone def.
Sounds like someone with limited experience in the industry, honestly.
And your not taking into account the money the Chinese government is dumping into the industry to produce those low cost products.
The goal is to dominate the industry world wide, and you just want to allow that.
This isn’t ‘fear mongering’ this is realism.
Your last sentence is just hilarious. You believe we can’t do it because capitalism is bad, and so you want to cede the entire future of the industry to a forign power run by a dictator who would 100% use it as a weapon against us.
The world isn’t black or white, and in this case protectionism for local industry is the best of the many bad choices.
Frankly we should be dumping public money into the same industry, but we have a strong majority who are fighting it tooth & nail. If you want to be angry about the expensive EVs here, get upset about the lack of government subsidies compared to China.
Pretty short sighted take.
When we ceed the entire auto market to Chinese manufacturing, do you think our economy will thrive?
Do you believe they won’t use this power to influence our actions on the global stage?
Wait your 2 years and calm down.
You’ve not seen a wide variety of “shops” then, clearly.
Constructive dismissal
All Apple products are designed for people who don’t use technology.
They hide the useful bits so people don’t hurt themselves.
It’s the Duplo of computing.
Toyota is a bad bet when it comes to EVs.
They clearly have no interest in selling them.
It’s almost like, in such a huge country, there exist people with different tastes.
I, an American, went to India once. The hotel restaurant had a breakfast buffet. On one side was a glorious Indian spread. The other was some nauseating English breakfast spread, with like baked beans (that’s for summer BBQs not breakfast!).
Anyway me and my buddy head straight to the good side, when the hotel staff woman came running over to warn us that it was too spicy. She gently walked us to the gross English food. We confirmed with her, numerous times, that the Indian food was very spicy. We then dug in on the eatible food (the Indian side) and made a friend with the hotel staff lady.
It was somewhat spicy, but amazing.
Some Americans think black pepper is too spicy, some eat ghost peppers as a light snack, I am in between.
Red hat, 25 years ago learned to recompile the kernel to make my sound card/modem work.
Because it’s shit.
If I apt install an app, I expect it NOT to be a snap. I want it to use shared libraries, not bring its own along. They hide from you that they are installing the snap not deb package.
Then you run into all sorts of permissions issues accessing the filesystem from the snap app… Because snap is rather broken in this regard.
Functionally snap is a worse solution then deb, but I guess it’s easier on the developer/maintainer as you don’t get lost in shared dependincy hell.
I feel snaps should be an option if you need cutting edge version of a software that can’t use your shared libs, but never the default install method.
Look, the reality is that disease did kill the majority of natives.
The genocide after that is not made any less horrible by that reality, but it was made POSSIBLE because of it.
If European settlers had to deal with the full original population, things would have been VERY different.
Even 20 years ago Linux was easier to install then Windows.
Last time I recall Linux being tricky was like late 90s.
