I've hated him for 10 years now. If it weren't for their VR headsets I would delete it entirely.

There are so many companies now dumping private capital into EV fast charging. IONNA alone is expected to build out 30,000 DC fast charging stations over the next 5 years. Its funded by basically all the major automakers in N America (except Toyota of course).

Their EVs are pretty solid, I've been driving one for 5 years and its been great.

We bought a chevy bolt and equinox. You can pick up a used bolt these days for around $10k. Equinoxes are as low as $35k before incentives...

I'd be like "50 million single payment, cash goes into an offshore bank account thats tax free. And I get my own private island."

Well, Elon IS running the government like a CEO. Clueless, fucking moronic CEO which, lets be honest, most of them are.

Can't wait until they fire half of NASA and then we lose all of our satellite, launch, tracking and deep space capabilities.

Whoops, we abandoned all the astronauts in orbit when we shut down Houston! Guess they're on their own! What do you mean, the ISS is about to crash into Washington DC?!

I thought the federal employees were unionized to some degree, but were still fired? I read something to that effect a week ago but the article didn't go into much detail.

In the great reddit to lemmy migration of 2023, a lot of users complained about the lack of content and engagement on lemmy. A number of lemmy moderators who came from reddit basically said the same thing and that they were working on deploying bots over here.

It looks like they did make some progress as there is a lot more content than there was 2 years ago. However, SOOOOO many niche subs just do not exist over here yet. Including most of my favs.

I am not that interested in linux or computers anymore.

Let me guess. These will be the AI-content subreddits, right?

Tariffs are essentially a shitty sales tax. I've read it described as a way to switch the US federal funding from I come tax to a hidden sales tax.

The revenues will also be much much lower, which is why they need to eliminate every federal bureau.

I think the idea is to let trump continually be the one who escalates, with the hope that the American public notice it's him and not those evil Canadians who are stealing America's trade deficit.

Infinite % tariffs?

I thought the same thing as well.

I have a few trans friends and neighbors who told me that basically when they came out and tried to change gender, no one would acknowledge their new identity. So it's a subtle way to inform other people.

Also, I have met more than a few people whom I had no idea of their gender. So it's actually great to read that pronoun because I don't like playing guessing games.

Err, DOD is buying into OpenAI to manage the nuclear weapons.

This bill is likely sponsored by Sam Altman himself

So if I get a new computer in a few months it will no loner work. Maybe we can VPN into Sweden?

Dude the US is never having another election again, that doesn't involve having (1) candidate on the ballot, ala Russia.

3 casinos. Trump bankrupted 3 casinos.

If you don't carry your federal ID with you at all times, there is no way to determine your US citizenship. Also, there is no federal ID. And many states issue drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants to avoid issues with unlicensed and uninsured motorists.
