if you have one.

Some some people may not believe this shit is actually ilegal in mexico. There's a limited list of cases where firing an employee is actually justified, without obligations for the employer. Otherwise you're entitled to a 3month compensation.

There are, of course, employers who decide to challenge this and drag payments, but still...

Their actions mislead people into believing it's Scarlett Johanssons voice.

Chinese vehicles suck. Here in mexico they're all over the place, and their quality is questionable. MGs are a joke now. Good for the US to block these imports.

The tech for EVs is not quite there yet. Most technologies/services star as a luxury ok this cases where the manufacturing costs are still too high. For example Uber, which started as a luxury service before being widespread with the shitty service they became.

That's one of the reasons why I hope my country sets restrictions on these Chinese EVs, as there is not enough infrastructure in Mexico for EVs to even existe, and we can't produce enough energy for them to be a viable solution for transportation. Heck, I'm even with Toyota and believe EVs are not a tech we should be investing in, and the world will not move to EVs as a widespread mode of transportation. i certainly hope so, because people buying EVs thinking they are the most green solution are not seeing the elephant in the room.

MadBigote ,

Sure thing, but most people into EVs feel greener while driving EVs, and think that's all they need to do. A state in Mexico bought electric busses for public transportation and results they charge them with diesel generators, so EVs are now just a gimmick of being environmentally friendly, it's so dumb.

I'm all for changing from fossil fuels to renewable energy, but EVs are in no way a factor for the general public to adopt alternative energies. EVs replacing fossil fuel vehicles won't happen as fast as needed for it to make a change in people's minds that solar or nuclear are needed.

MadBigote ,

What tech are you talking about? I'm talking about the grid not being able to serve everyone switching to EVs anytime soon. Also people don't factor the batteries needing replacement after some years like any other appliance running on batteries, and those can be quite expensive to replace.

MadBigote ,

Cuz China is well known for subsidizing production (well the US kinda does it too for some productos anyway). I personally wouldn't buy a Chinese vehicle out of security and quality concerns, regardless of it being Ev or not.

Seat have me a OBD device as a "gift" for my new vehicle back in 2021, and supervised me installing their app. The car has an option to opt out of sending data to SEAT via my phone too. Totally not sketchy.

We all end up using fedora.

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of "Twitter.com" to "X.com" automatically....

MadBigote ,

Do you mean the song by the Beatles?

MadBigote ,

OP swing Texans messed up their eyes more.

I use a Logitech Master mx3s and it works great. It doesn't have the right angle to be considered a vertical mouse, but it's angle works better for me. I also struggled a bit with vertical mouses, but I believe it was caused by the cheap products I bought and not the angle itself. But for now I'm set with my mx3s.

MadBigote ,

Real honey don't crystalize.

MadBigote ,

Except the algorithm has been horrible for, like..., five years maybe?

MadBigote ,

What's wrong with both Tuta and Proton? I'm by no means involved in any crime or anything, but I degooglefied and moved to Tuta for mail. Was considering self hosting, but I've been procrastinating it.

MadBigote ,

I mean, I left Google because I hated them tracking me 24/7, and trying to sell me stuff based on my profile, though privacy is indeed a concern. Any option you may recommend i could use while k move to a privet email server? I wanted to get out of Tuta anyway since their platform feels stiff.

MadBigote ,

What!?

MadBigote ,

I saw an add just last week asking me to install Outlook on my phone. I use Outlook for work too, so I just dismissed it.

MadBigote ,

What do you spend money on? After I bought my piano and bench, I haven't really spent any more money on it. Although the piano and bench are more than enough to call the hobby "expensive".

MadBigote ,

Making money doesn't change the legality.

Except that it actually does? That's the point of copyright laws. The LLM/AIs are using copyright protected material as source without paying for it, and then selling it's output as "original '.

I went to London last month and, by all means, any foreign food would be better than whatever those kids were having.

MadBigote ,

I'm still waiting for the Libre Office citrus UI... Although LO did manage to get their version of a ribbon into it. It's still not quite there for me, though. Their icons are not as good and I get lost in their design choices.
