Did executives misread the market?

The problem isn’t detailed graphics, the problem is shit performance. The new generation of UE games look average, and require ridiculous hardware + upscaling to run smoothly

We’re getting fucking old, aren’t we? :)

Fundamental flaw of the democracy: It assumes that people know what’s the best for them

There’s quite well defined legal framework of what Unions can and can’t do - this shouldn’t be a drama topic

has begun outsourcing quality assurance work without the union’s agreement

Were they obligated to ask union for permission?

Lemmy is full of communists/socialists - this is an opposite side of political spectrum

I support it and I’m a centrist

By supporting it alone, you’d be considered a far left there.

As somone who lives in Poland: Marxism is not a thing here.

Despite all the lawsuits, it’s still sailing

Most of the time you charge an EV at home or at a level 2 charger nearby.

I have neither a house, nor I have access to any fast charging station nearby.

the battery will last the lifetime of the vehicle

That’s not given some battery packs will last long, some won’t. Warranty on batteries is a sketchy thing because it’s difficult to say whether capacity drop is a design flaw or just wear and tear from heavy usage

you have no practical knowledge of the topic

I have as much knowledge as I researched the topic. EV is a big nope for me.

where do you get this sort of “information”?

Look at the specs sheet of EV cars. The best case fast charging scenario is like 20 minutes to 60-80%. And you can’t count on the best case scenario every time. Gas station refueling is just much faster.

As for cost, literally 60 seconds of searching:

“Estimates suggest that the batteries for the Model S cost between $12,000 and $15,000. After labor charges, the total repair cost is about $20,000 to $22,000”

I did my research - and ultimately decided public transport is the best solution where I live.

going electric has so many benefits

It has the lot of downsides too. Like charging time, or high battery cost

Students don’t learn by just going to class then doing nothing afterwards

Really? Then why are they going there in the first place???

And how do you get that juicy job experience allowing you to negotiate higher wage? You spend time on homework given you by your boss???

Jesus I wish I could get paid for just going to school.

Maybe you should be paid for passed exams and decent grades?

Stop relying on students to do their work in home. Most of people work from 9 to 5 yet education system expects teenagers to do overtime assignments. And noone even pays them for it.

My problem with it is that it reinforces toxic monopoly, and I don’t even know how much money goes to the creators.

Also they raised price multiple times lately
