¿Qué?

Sometimes my car decides to play some radio before connecting to my phone. It’s an unfortunate side-effect of owning a not-too-nice car.

Radio DJs are little more than advertising agents nowadays. Or worse, wannabe entertainers.

Making car-pedestrian collisions safe is a ridiculous idea failed to doom from the start. Cars are big and hard, people are small and squishy.

I think the key is to prevent cars and people from coexisting as much as possible.

They are probably right, unfortunately.

They’re just following in the EU’s steps in a self-aggrandising move. Everyone knows apple won’t bother with splitting the iphone line and will go with USB-C soon.

Even my iPad keyboard (the folio from Apple) “only” cost like £180. Samsung’s going nuts.

You meme it?

They called OP’s bluff. They should sue, but reddit knows they won’t.

Speak for yourself.

I don’t even pretend.

I guess hoovering up all your data ain’t enough.

That’s soon to change when regulations come in to force apple to allow sideloading.

No it wouldn’t. Phones aren’t cheap.

You’ve forgotten an important point: the price gap between apple and windows machines has closed significantly. A similarly-performing windows machine is now a similar price, if not more expensive, than the equivalent mac.

But that would require some mechanism for redistributing wealth and taking care if those who choose not to work, and everyone knows that’s communism.

What the hell is even going on with that numbering?

As far as I understand (I’m in the market myself) the traditional makers have essentially caught up. You can expect the same build quality as other cars by the same makers.

(I’m specifically looking at Renault, Volvo and Mercedes, haven’t tried others)

Or, in short: dude likes Honda, Honda makes EVs, get one of those 😁

We’re talking about substantial hardware differences, though, which are substantially more expensive to maintain than simple region locking.

It’s not an allergy, it’s hiding punches. It’s concealing the fact that they’re fucking you in the ass by telling you it’s just a penis-based prostate exam, and that you’re the one being weird. It’s gaslighting.

It’s one of the things I hate most in our capitalist dystopia.

Because the EU is such a massive market, EU law tends to bleed out. It’s expensive to keep different SKUs for different regions, so compliance tends to seep out.

I’d expect at least some of this to have an impact outside the EU.
