But it will be written in Schwiizerdütch, so no one outside of Switzerland will understand it. I think it’s a dialect of Perl.

If I were writing code 40h a week maybe, but my emacs brain can’t get used to vim motions.

That’s what I meant by “kind of” open source.

I’m open for suggestions for a better one, but for me it uniquely combines open source (kind of) with ease of use and functionality / expandability. I used emacs for more than a decade and switched to VSCode (although I don’t do coding as my primary activity anymore). Tried neovim, sublime, netbeans and webstorm and didn’t convince me.

Weird metric, but pretty sure UGGs or KitchenAid hold more power than Lichtenstein or Tuvalu, so not unique to tech giants.

Because some are good. VSCode for instance.

Cruz is competent and evil, ramashwarmy will do anything the likes of miller and bannon come up with, de sanstis as you said… There are worse options, frightingly…

Of course it doesn’t, I said that just above. Gets you a better chance tho.

Having relatives anywhere is not a protected class, to begin with.

Where do i buy a car that’s not a private company? Where do I get internet service?

You can’t. Choose a reputable one. And pay for it, so you are a customer, not the product. Aaaaand I lost 95% of lemmy.

They aren’t. The are discriminating “for no reason at all”. Feel free to sue them. Godspeed.

It’s an equation. One of those “left for the reader”. Please start solving it.

Microsoft is a private company and they can ask you to leave, no reason given, anytime.

And they have a history of over 30 years of being evil, manipulative and anticonsumer. If you base your online life on the good will of Microsoft you will be very disappointed sooner or later.

Everything in this comment is true.

You mentioned driving data specifically, and that they can sell.

Selling your data doesn’t have anything to do with Android Auto or CarPlay. You can provide Android Auto and still sell your driving data just fine.

If putting the hardware in makes the assembly line simpler and the car is 2000 euros cheaper but you want to pay more just to remove the hardware, I don’t know what to tell you.

All of them (except the cybertruck, maybe?). I mean one on grill level, to see what’s in front of you below the hood level. They do have one behind the rear view mirror, but that one doesn’t see shit when parking (and you can’t show it on the screen).

That’s like, your opinion, man.

Both volume and ac can be done without even reaching over, you have buttons on the steering wheel for that.

The buttonless glove box allows for setting a pin to open it, and you don’t need to “dive” through menus, it’s on the main screen, on a voice command, or again, as a button on the steering wheel.

There’s much more obvious things to criticize, like the removal of the stalks, especially for blinkers, or the ultrasonic sensors, especially without a front camera.

And BMW subscription would save people money, but people panicked and now it’s back as an almost 1000 bucks option instead of a 7 bucks a month “subscription” that you need 3 months of the year in most countries. And they never even removed the option of buying it outright…
