The problem with Chinese EVs is that they show it's possible to innovate, keep prices down, and mass produce.

Ford, GM, even Tesla, are spending all their time whining about how it's just not possible to compete. They point the finger at worker wages, instead of improving engineering and design, materials, manufacturing processes, and not chasing stock-market gains.

Stop making $70K SUVs and start making $20K Taurus and Escort EVs. You did it once. You can do it again.

Soon:

Cats are majority brown, gray, orange, black, and (gasp) mixed. They're lying immigrants, decimating the white mice of this land.

Asked my buddy who is an L7/Principal at AWS with years of experience if this would affect him. He laughed. Said he had already decided to quit in January. This just clinched it. Said they kept hiring entry-level L4s. Lots more senior people going to leave.

How long before PG&E blames the rate increases on all those people with solar panels.

Oh wait, they already did.

That's what you might call, a career-limiting decision.

Maybe he slurred his words and meant Virginia.

"As the ninth inning drew to a close at San Francisco’s Oracle Park on a recent afternoon, the mood in the stands was dour — the Giants were losing to the White Sox. But in the skies above the stadium, the real game was just getting started.

California and Western gulls glided overhead, scouting the bleachers for garlic fries and ketchup-smeared hot dog buns. The gulls soared steadily by the dozens as the bleachers emptied. Soon, the birds were left alone to engulf any leftover food they could find."

 

Earlier today, at Oakland, CA charging station.

 

Not sure if true, but someone raised an issue when this was first announced. That you can no longer refuse to unlock your phone when stopped, since you'll have to unlock it to show your digital driver's license.

Apologize if this is a dupe, but is there a way to transfer one's acoount from one lemmy instance to another? Ideally, it involves one's posts and comments, but definitely one's saves. Both accounts are active and in good health.

Thanks!

 

Next step would be realtime updates from journalists on breaking news.

 

Saw a picture of a canceled check online. Was wondering if it was real.

Yup. From the California Secretary of State site.
