Yeah way before. I had a bit of a look through some announcements and couldn’t find it so I can’t say exactly when.

IIRC they changed the way they calculate the scores a few years ago, which generally increased the numbers you saw.

If you’re replacing your phone surely it’s better that it doesn’t come with the charger (from an environmental point of view), since you don’t have to ship it back and they don’t have to ship you a new one. And what does it matter if they’re on different ships? It would still be pretty much the same amount of emissions released, which is probably less than the amount needed to drive it to your house. Adding the extra packaging for two separate items isn’t great though, and I agree that as a customer it isn’t great to get less for the same price.

Just to be pedantic, the dumb car tunnels (or Loop), are the weird thing elon “invented” to “solve” traffic and reduce competition for his cars for urban transport. This eventually became one tunnel in LA to get between elon’s house and office, and the dumb taxi tunnel in Las Vegas.

The hyperloop, where elon “invented” the vacuum train, is a separate thing that exists to distract from CAHSR, and elon didn’t want to work on himself because “he’s too busy”, and not because it’s effectively just a scam and won’t work, and most of the companies that started up to develop it have since gone bust.

They wanted to move and use thier car

Did they though? To some extent, yes. But most people just want to get places and will take whichever mode makes the most sense for that journey, and what a city invests in will make that mode make more sense for more journeys. There is also a portion of journeys that just won’t happen if they are too difficult.

Your last paragraph is tangential to what I said. It doesn’t disagree because it says something different. It’s also oversimplified in some ways and just wrong in others.

Beyond the fact that adding five more lanes would still leave you with a horribly inefficient transport system, you also ignore that externalities that you are exacerbating by doing so. You’re displacing thousands more people, worsening the division of communities, creating a lot of noise and air pollution, increasing car dependency etc

Comparisons are helpful to find which matches my preferences, and it’s helpful to know which phone will process the images in a way that I can get images I like without doing the processing myself.

He’s a blue check. He gets paid for generating engagement.

No NSFW art, but nazi comics are still allowed 🤔

I prefer that to the amount of wildly bigoted comments I would see on Reddit.

I want my language learning app to have things like that, to help motivate me to keep coming back every day.

Just fyi you can keep practicing as much as you want in Duolingo, just tap the heart in the top right and click practice to earn more hearts.

Maps sourced from OSM might be more precise for off road stuff in busy locations but in general Google maps will be more precise for city streets if you’re looking for an address.

The quality of OSM data really just depends on how many people are interested in mapping the area. Look at German cities for example and the data is excellent.

Sooo… it’s just libertarianism?

Just fyi, you can link to a community like this: /c/fuck_cars@lemmy.ml

The US freight rail industry isn’t some of the best in the world, it’s actually really quite terrible. It fails to maintain it’s infrastructure, can’t run to a schedule, frequently loses cargo, and causes ecological disasters. It is good at creating short term profits for shareholders, not being an effective transportation network. If you want more info, here’s a video that explains it better.

Why wait?

I have a Turing pi V2, currently with only one CM4 module in it, running some *arrs, paperless, smb and some monitoring.
