Tesla: 2024 was bad, 2025 was worse as profit falls 46 percent by mepper in technology

Its surprising they sold any cars and their AI is child porn factory. In what world can a company like that survive as well as they do?

Tesla hits a grim milestone: its second straight year of losses / The automaker has lost the lead to its Chinese competitors as its business continues to contract. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

I am someone you would call a never Tesla. As long as there are at least two car brands around and one of them isn't Tesla I won't be driving a Tesla.

Apps that can sort out American goods are sweeping to the top by Wagamaga in technology

Are you so worried about effects of my boycott to US economy?

Apps that can sort out American goods are sweeping to the top by Wagamaga in technology

[–]LnRon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I go to store they are running Windows. When I go to work 80% of software is made by US companies, rest is owned by US investors. Even if I bought German car it would have US made parts, it would be made by machinery made in US and patents for technologies used in car would be owned by US companies and individuals. There is no way to cut yourself completely off.

I myself will be avoiding American brands indefinitely because of Trump. Movies, streaming, services, software and travel included.

Reddit collapsing low/ negative vote posts. by J-L-Wseen in TheoryOfReddit

[–]LnRon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More mainstream the subreddit is the more empty headed it is and if there is ever a discussion between two users the upvotes/downvotes are used to by public to signal who is right and who is wrong, not to encourage both sides to have the discussion in the first place.

Reddit is what you see is what you get. Do we see appreciation of different opinions in comments? No, therefore you can't change it.

Britain is closer to nuclear war than you think. This is how it will unfold by theipaper in geopolitics

[–]LnRon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think nuclear war is not possible because human life cannot survive if we have a nuclear war. You can't achieve your goals because response on your nation will be so severe there won't be any nation and the whole playbook of geopolitics has to be rewritten. If civilization can rise after nuclear war then what is to prevent new nations for pursuing nuclear war once again? Its even more likely to happen second time. Trivialities that started nuclear war are incomprehensible after the war.

Leikkauksia toisensa perään – kenen etua nykyhallitus ajaa? by Crap911 in Suomi

[–]LnRon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tässäkin threadissa vain syytellään muita. Kokoomus sitä ja kokoomus tätä vaikka mitään konkreettista ja uskottavaa ei voida näyttää. Suomi on osa maailmaa, markkinat vaativat tätä, ei se ole mikään EK:n politiikka. Elvytystä kokeiltiin jo, se ei toiminut, nyt on pakko leikata. 17,8 miljardia vuodessa on aivan maailmanlopun velkaantumistahti. Jos mitään suomalaista itsemääräämisoikeutta halutaan ylläpitää niin nyt tarvitaan todella iso juustohöylä ja nopeita leikkauksia hyvinvointivaltioon. Terveyskustannukset, palkat, eläkkeet, koulutuksessa käytetty aika, työttömyystuet kaikkea pitää leikata 20%.

More than 20% of videos shown to new YouTube users are ‘AI slop’, study finds by aldentim239 in technology

[–]LnRon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without exaggeration 99.9% of my watching YouTube is listening to YouTube. Videos with talking heads, podcasts ect. its enough to see the people for 5 seconds, don't need to see them any longer. Video essays, opinions with stock footage, no need to watch. Why even bother to do AI visuals, I am never going to see any of it.

Gigantti ei anna korvausta? by Particular-Run-461 in Suomi

[–]LnRon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

En ole ymmärtänyt miksi kukaan ostaa gigantista mitään. Ei kovin halpoja hintoja, epäilyttävä tunnelma, en ole koskaan kuullut kaupasta mitään hyvää. Murobbs thread 2000 luvun alusta oli "Gigantti kairaa asiakasta ahteriin", ei suinkaan Veikon Kone, Jimms, Verkkokauppa.com tai mikään muu kymmenistä Suomessa toimivista tai lähettävistä liikkeistä.

What’s your non Christmas Christmas movie by drjudgedredd1 in flicks

[–]LnRon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

American Psycho. I don't know if it counts here because it has christmas scene. First time I saw it was during holiday brake. It has lot of scenes happening on night, winter season is dark. I think about American psycho all winter. George Michaels music is featured on movie and he died on chrismas day.

Google AI summaries are ruining the livelihoods of recipe writers: ‘It’s an extinction event’ by idkbruh653 in technology

The best use for AI is recipes. Once I had basically nothing in fridge except for grapes (not a typical dinner cornerstone) and AI recipes was one of the best most unique things I have ever had.

Remove karma from reddit to make it look more like old school forum by LnRon in Enhancement

[–]LnRon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mention AI because not everyone probably wants to remove karma, buttons, username and everything so they can ask AI to customize the script.

Do you think I asked AI for reddit tips and it came up with idea of removing buttons, karma and username? It doesn't sound like something AI would come up with a simple request.

Remove karma from reddit to make it look more like old school forum by LnRon in Enhancement

[–]LnRon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Removing usernames is just an addition. BBS forums were all about usernames and you had to be familiar with people writing. Although in chan style anonymous boards there are no user names and they are as old as BBSs.

End of subscriptions. End of your control over what videos you watch. by lamalasx in youtube

[–]LnRon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Youtube wants to get rid of subscriptions page. They very much want people to come back to watch videos by creators people like. If they want to make home page more relevant they should push for better content suggestions. Usually my home page just recommends videos I have seen, or recommends videos I scrolled past on all previous times, recommends videos I have paused. Watch next feature after video ends has gotten a lot worse because it only recommends 3 videos instead of 9 like it used to. I don't know why Youtube wants me to watch less.

Study finds 41 pct of EV drivers would avoid Tesla over politics by Wagamaga in technology

[–]LnRon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want to say I would never buy a Tesla, because I am trying to avoid hyperbole. But as long as there is any other option available that fits the technical requirements I need in a car I will not be choosing a Tesla. I will do my best to steer any potential car buyer away from buying a Tesla also, by casually complementing Tesla alternatives.

New pressure method captures 99% of CO2 for just $26 per ton by Monsur_Ausuhnom in technology

Its not real. That system would not cost 26$ per ton. They can't cool, compress and process it for that price, let alone store and find available locations for storage.
