What manufacturer? Name and shame.

CarPlay I can see if there’s an ongoing cost of making sure future Apple updates don’t break compatibility, but it’s very highly unlikely that will ever be an issue.

People won’t switch from driving to cycling over this. They’ll just pick one of the several dozen other car manufacturers.

That reddit thread is a gem. Funniest shit I’ve seen on WSB in a while.

The lawsuits haven’t even started. This is very very bad for them.

That is quite simple. You’re the only one to provide a coherent answer so far so thanks for that.

I’m looking for a bit more info though. Did you get any other benefits besides the equivalent of warm fuzzies? Sounds like an extremely outsized cost/benefit assessment you had to confirm.

Why was it worth it? What benefits did you gain from the change?

Imagine being this petty.

Enshittification exclusively defines online platforms. Stop using it for everything.

Your math is wrong. If the Celeron runs 65W at idle then it is consuming at minimum 1.56kWh a day, at a price of €0.20 per kWh you’re looking at a minimum operating cost of €113.88 a year.

You didn’t factor in that days have 24 hours, not one hour.

The post title is editorialized. The actual article had nothing to do with Linux.

Again, naive. People in underprivileged communities would struggle to even turn a computer on properly. Using Linux? Nice ideal, but not gonna happen.

If you live somewhere where it snows frequently, accumulated snow or freezing rain with below freezing temps will leave a layer of ice on your car’s windows if not cleaned quickly. Sometimes, a brush and a car’s defrosters running can be enough. But if it’s cold enough or thick enough, a plastic scraper may be needed to get the job done.

Sir, this is Lemmy. The correct terms are “fuck cars” and “capitalism bad”.

You mean fuck cars, fuck capitalism, look how cool Lemmy is?

This fuckin’ guy.

Sowing*.

It’s spreading it like seeds, not stiching it like a seam.

Since Twitter is now private, we’ll never know the real numbers, but the paper value of the Twitter brand itself being cast aside is a huge non-monetary loss.

Google is not a search engine. It’s an advertising service. Their whole business model revolves around a critical mass of eyeballs, which flock to free services. This will never happen for the average user.

Google has had this feature in Chrome for YEARS, bro.

Which was an enshittified version of Songza. Google lost me for music a loooong time ago.
