    Phones that don't have security updates

    It may not be intentional, but a thread asking others if they haven't had security updates in years is either low key bragging, or trying to find confirmation that you're not the only one in the wrong so you can feel better about what you're doing. The same could be said if someone made a...

    Phones that don't have security updates

    So this is a thread where people talk about how they don’t care about security?

    Do you Remember the Walkman?

    Vinyl at least has some benefits compared to digital, but cassettes weren’t known for sound quality. People only collect them now for retro appeal more than anything. Which there isn’t anything wrong with that, you’re just being self aware. Also the “je ne se qui” Is just tape hiss and warble...

    Woman Gets No Jail Time After Stabbing Man 108 Times

    That pot must have been laced with some shit, because she’s be too relaxed if it was just weed

    Do you Remember the Walkman?

    The Walkman was more associated with portable cassette players. Sony’s Walkman was the most popular, so it became a generic used brand name for portable cassette players. I think some of Sony’s early models of CD players were branded Walkman, but they also ended up branding them Discmans. I...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    I said I already looked it up that EV owners cars heat up quickly. I was more commenting on the mindset of immediately blaming a technology platform instead of the individual issue.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    I’m curious how much of that has to do with it being an EV versus having a poorly designed heater. I’ve seen online that their EV’s heat up very quickly. I’m sure we’ve all been in a friend’s car that had a shitty AC or heater, and we knew that their AC/heater just sucked. The same can be said...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Tbh it also has to be well below zero, not just it being cold. ICE vehicles also have difficulty in subzero temperatures. Also, if you read those articles about what happened in Chicago this past winter, there’s more to the story. The cars died waiting in line at a charging station and the...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Like 350-400 miles depending on how hard the AC is going, though the AC doesn’t do a massive dramatic drop.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    They can, but with the range on their vehicles, they just charge at home. Idk about when they go on trips, but daily commute isn’t a problem for them.

    Should Vaccines be Mandatory?

    I wouldn’t call it good judgement. More like make someone else do it for you so you accept no responsibilities, and bitch about it when it’s not what you want.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Well, saying East Coast doesn’t narrow it down, because there’s like over 13 states there with widely varying rates for electricity. We’re out in Texas, which is kind of mid for electricity rates. They said their electricity bill only went up like $50 something a month. Most people here spend...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    That guy must be driving really far, or he lives in a place with a high electricity bill. My coworkers who have EV’s have the complete opposite story.

    Wrong side driving

    I lived in the UK for a few years, and you get used to it after awhile. It helps when the steering wheel is also on the wrong side.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    I wish the EV situation wasn’t politically charged. That way there’d be less misinformation leading to what your guy is saying.

    Are hobbies a waste?

    It’s only a waste if you’re either not enjoying it, or you’re struggling in your life because of your hobby.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    We need more charging infrastructure. Just like how we have gas stations in small towns in the middle of nowhere, we’ll have charging stations.

    Should Vaccines be Mandatory?

    That involves people using their brains. Too much work.

    Do you think anyone can be a good teacher?

    No. some people have the technical knowledge over a subject, but couldn’t teach people out of a paper bag. Sometimes it’s hard to teach the how and why of certain things.
