But then I don’t get to justify my 3d printer purchase with custom enclosures with their jobs engraved on them

The issue with the combination of rabbit holes I’m going down is all the damn pis Im gonna end up being lol

This is basically how I see it. Whether we like it or not, its happening. Claiming it won’t at this point is just as silly as all the people who claimed the internet was just a fad.

Better to have options, long as it’s optional I don’t have many issues with it.

Now if it’s rammed down our throats, that’s an entirely different story.

My friends base model kia soul from 2013 has less issues with gaps in the body and awful craftsmanship with regards to interior trim than the two model 3s that are in my family. The same has been true for quite literally every car I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned real pieces of shit. It’s also been in the shop less despite having been around an extra 7 years.

Anyone buying a Tesla at this point either knows they’re buying a shit car purely for the status symbol, or they’re a rube. Fools and their money and all that

If everyone (not just you!) would go to buy a new car with the plan to get a fair win-win deal for everyone then the dealer wouldn’t have to find all these ways to nickel and dime you on extras.

Yeah I’m going to be honest, you’re not going to be finding much sympathy for car dealership owners from me. Maybe it’s different around you, but around these parts they’re invariably some of the richest people in town.

It’s becaude it’s a free trial. XM either directly pays car manufacturers or subsidizes the additional hardware costs, XM gets people to try their service who never otherwise would have, car dealers get another feature to add to their list.

Their marketing is just incredibly childish and brash. Doesn’t personally upset me, but it’s certainly never made me want to check out their products.

Real glad to see Life is Strange. Still can’t listen to obstacles without crying and it’s been probably 7 years

The left never loved him. Neo-libs did, but they aren’t left

It wasn’t specifically anti-trans, it was donating to a cause looking to block same sex marriage as a whole, which obviously isn’t any better

Too bad the people that ignore it are the ones making those decisions in the first place

I think you’re vastly overestimating the proportion of people against social safety nets who would change their tune when presented with indisputable evidence that they are wrong.

Why are we giving these fuckers anything after they stole billions to lay fiber, and they just fucking didn’t.
