Hopefully it doesn’t turn into oops all devil’s panties comics

Nextcloud has a collabora integration

'Member when YouTube TV was $35/mo? Now it’s around $83 I think

In the USA taxes and titling cost different amounts depending on where you live. It’s easier to calculate once you buy, especially if you are buying in another state than the one you reside in which is a big problem in my state where dealers don’t stock EVs. I had to go to the nearest large city which is in another state from where I reside to get my Bolt EUV.

You can calculate before you buy and each state usually has at least a chart to ballpark what you’ll pay. The easiest way to calculate these taxes would be to not levy them against people to begin with.

Advertising cars would never be feasible on nationally broadcast TV under your system.

They did figure out the problem though. Price set by the manufacture, show cost for delivery on the window sticker, then when you buy they car the title and tax are figured out for where you live. It’s the fairest and easiest way of showing and figuring the price. If you can’t figure out that window stickers are available online and the tax and title yourself before you buy, that’s a you problem. It’s not on the seller nor the manufacturer to post pricing for every state or municipality.

If you want cleaner pricing, demand an end to titling and car taxes.

Except that not every place is next to the car factory. Delivery to Portland, Maine is going to be a much different price in comparison to Austin, Texas. Do you also expect the cost of titling and taxes be included in the advertised price? Do you know that those vary from location to location as well?

bullshit fee

Do you think shipping and transportation of goods is free? Do you think truck drivers drive stuff around out of the goodness of their hearts?

If it waives the destination fee, then I don’t see it as a bad problem depending on how much it would normally cost to deliver vs how many miles.

I wish I had moved to Linux sooner. I was in IT at the time and only saw windows and OSX in the wild. Servers were all windows except for one xserve. I still to this day have no idea what that server did for that customer. My only real experience with Linux at that time was FreePBX when setting up phone systems for offices.

I put OSX on mine. A $200 Macbook mini was a cool project and a neat conversation piece.

That only works until stop killing games is passed and forces game devs to release the code for running servers for the games yourselves after the official server(s) close down. Like how City of Heroes/Villians works now.

From what I can remember, the LTX thing that Louis brought up was after Linus had apologized for and then they did a colab video where it seemed they buried the hatchet on the main channel in a video where Steve and Louis both called out Linus for not doing in regards to Honey. Louis bringing that up again felt like the cliche arguing with your wife that never fails to forget some little slight you did years ago.

It all seems like jealousy on the part of Steve’s behalf especially since Linus was recently on the Tonight Show then Steve changed parts of his website to not claim to be a journalist and Louis buying into it hook line and sinker. Steve is better off staying in the investigative journalist role and Rossmann would do better not getting into youtuber drama.

This will be a problem until a non-google open OS is adopted for mobile phones. Right now that list is incredibly short and nothing competes in the flagship department. I don’t see it changing anytime soon because gen x and millenials may be the last generations that have a signifigant portion of itself that has a grasp of how computers work beyond “tap app icon, app does things”.

Thing I took for granted like how a file system works is lost on my kids (late Z early alpha). Explaining what a file extension is like teaching a new language. I used to think “training wheels” for learning computering via tablets and phones and touch screens were a good thing but there is nothing that compels people today to shed themselves of them. It feels very reminiscent of my childhood and teaching my boomer dad how to right click. I think computer literacy needs to be required education, but I’m afraid that the definition for computer literacy might be meaningless nowadays if it doesn’t go beyond open app store, install app, run app.

Edison motors in Canada is getting ready to put out conversion kits for pickup trucks to convert to series hybrid (onboard generator, all electric drivetrain). It’s not for a short term profit, more for right to repair and a stance against planned obsolescence.

My point is that it empowers phone manufacturers to put us on this 2 year cycle and then further cripple phones beyond that scope

Because batteries aren’t easily replaceable by the user.

It’s the price. I want a truck, not a Cadillac with a bed. A truck is meant for work not be a pavement princess. $50k was already high and the truck market is still stupid on price with most trucks going over $60k and Cybertruck starts at $75.5k. If the price was what Elon said when he announced the Cybertruck, it would be flying off the shelves $40k

You’re welcome dumbass

To add on if you have multiple machines in your home, move one machine to something easy like Arch Mint now to ease yourself in. I dropped a 2nd SSD for Mint in main machine and haven’t booted my win install in over 2 years and even then it was unnecessary. Currently I’m up to the family computer on Mint, 2 laptops running Tumbleweed and Fedora, a server on Debian, 2 Raspberry Pis on Raspian, and a router on FreeBSD.
