Again. None of this is unique to EVs. Cars with internal combustion engines are at least equally as enshittified. At LEAST.


ICE cars are full of the same gadgetry, so once again this has fuck all to do with EVs.


Bullshit article. Absolutely nothing about these problems is unique to EVs.


our electricity isn’t green so it feels kind of…counter intuitive in a sense
Even if your power source is burning coal, it’s still less harmful to drive an EV powered by coal than an ICE car powered by gasoline or diesel.
This oil and coal industry talking point has been debunked time and time again.
Hell, even Forbes of all outlets has an article about it: https://www.forbes.com/sites/mikescott/2020/03/30/yes-electric-cars-are-cleaner-even-when-the-power-comes-from-coal/


You first, shithead


VR has actual staying power though. It genuinely adds a lot to a game or a simulation. VRchat especially is like a deeply emotional thing to folks who don’t feel like they belong in their real bodies and can exist in VR a more true representation of themself

Way above my pay grade! I would never suggest or support making such agreements, but I also don’t want to be in a position where I’d even be asked, so I’d just sit back with a bowl of popcorn
AWS aggressively pursues high priced and years-long spending commitments with large customers, and they incentivize it with huge discounts for doing so.
And when AWS does this they intentionally incentivize these large customers to migrate existing workloads away from other cloud service providers as well, going so far as to offer assistance in doing so.


yeah, like… They genuinely tried.
I got several beefs with framework, but this isn’t one of them.


I agree with your conclusion and I abhor Framework promoting either of these two projects.
But the APU in the desktop has, I suspect, a real reason for having nonreplaceable RAM. If I understand correctly, they can’t achieve 8000 mt/s memory speed or the wider memory bus with replaceable RAM. And since that memory is shared with the GPU, that speed becomes important for gaming or other GPU tasks. Hence why 6400 mt/s seems to be the max memory speed for a lot of the zen5 desktop chips, at least in prebuilts
I have that chip in my laptop (the “AI” Max Pro 395+) and I don’t ever use it for LLM shit. It’s a very performant and efficient CPU, and shockingly good for gaming too.
So even tho I hate the “ai” branding it’s actually a very very good CPU and GPU


Show us an actual photo of that product and its actual packaging, not some random useless image from tesco’s website.


There’s not a damn thing that’s “natural” about ground meat.


What the fuck would meat-based breading be like?


as opposed to “heavily processed animal pulp”?


Pretty telling that the headline is that they want to do something, rather than they did something.


Strongly against the state having the option.


and its concepts for what is acceptable or not will definitely be some bigoted bullshit
Why do you say that?
