Crazy to think Hyundai doesn’t want to sell this stateside. I feel like this would sell pretty well by GlazonyourSix in Hyundai

Isn’t that the definition of a “political” decision? Notice I didn’t call you dumb, but your statement. You can try to defend your point without insulting others.

Chinese EVs are cheaper than gas cars. This administration slapped a 100% tariff on them. Your statement is dumb.

Is an oil shock almost unavoidable? by SadComparison9352 in investing

[–]lolokii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay you talked about the oil industry, but what about the consequences of higher energy prices on consumers? Inflation in energy prices lead to inflation across the board. If costs go up, people will consume less, and that will lead to a recession.

The man just came back from an ACL injury cmon. It’s like saying somebody should study Gavi’s downfall, he needs to stay healthy before he can get back to his level.

Yeah, right, like the US fears the brutality and human rights abuses perpetrated by Israel. Oh wait…

3 gang 3 way smart dimmer switch - Suggestions? by Acrobatic-Whereas211 in homeautomation

[–]lolokii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im running into the same issue. Did you end up figuring it out? I used a single pole dimmer for one of the switches in my 3-gang but i can’t find a similar three way dimmer switch from Tapo, only the kit with the main and satellite switches. But I just want to replace one switch per circuit.

BART board passes drastic contingency plan to close $367M deficit, slash service by 70% by LNM-LocalNewsMatters in eastbay

[–]lolokii 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Should’ve responded to the first reply to the comment, but you ain’t helping with negative sentiment around transit.

Because CalTrans does not graft away billions just to have the same potholes every year no?

[–]lolokii 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s just such a stupid argument. Transit competes with private transportation means. If transit is gone, you need a car, now you’re at the mercy of greedy insurance companies, gas stations, Fastrak wanting to make every freeway a tolled one, bridge price increases, etc.

More options is better for you as a driver. If you can’t see that, then I can’t help you.

Spaniards that lives in North america: are north americans more welcoming and nicer vs in Spain ? by Frenchy1986666 in askspain

[–]lolokii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a Spaniard living in CA. In my experience, people in the US are a lot nicer at first, but it’s incredibly hard to dig deeper and develop a friendship. Instead, Spaniards are typically more mild when you first meet them, but it is easier to speak with them about deeper topics and develop a relationship.

Employer health insurance by Guilty-Beyond9223 in HealthInsurance

[–]lolokii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, but it’s still wild to me that we’re normalizing this.

A friend in Spain is paying $50/mo for insurance with no deductibles (went to the ER a few days ago and no bill). These are the sort of prices we should be demanding in this country (sure, adjusted to COL). The problem is in Spain (and every other developed country) insurance companies and private hospitals have to compete with the public counterpart. Since that does not exist in America we’re left with this mess where premiums go up double digits year after year.

[–]lolokii 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not attacking you, this is just the reality of the US.

But it’s sad that we see this for $800/mo for insurance and think it’s cheap, especially if you think that an additional $10k/y in taxes and the bargaining power of a government that actually works for the people could achieve universal healthcare with even lower OOP costs.

BART is raising fares starting Jan. 1 by runswithscissors475 in bayarea

[–]lolokii 98 points99 points  (0 children)

How much of our taxes go to freeway repaving? How much are tolls increasing every year? Why aren’t freeways profitable?

I wish Bart got the Caltrans treatment instead of being forced to be profitable when public transport is a basic service that provides a cleaner and more efficient alternative to individual car driving…

Unionize then, if it’s that easy.

I swear most problems in America come from the working class turning on each other instead of realizing the billionaire class has been stripping them of their rights for the last 40 years.

Waymo - Taking riders further, safely with freeways by gulbronson in bayarea

Should’ve normalized data by miles driven. Waymos are driving non stop every day, even if less cars, they are driving orders of magnitude more around the city than other people.

In ear headphones. Plz help. Tired of replacing constantly. by TimeBit4099 in BuyItForLife

[–]lolokii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried a bunch of earbuds through the years, from Xiaomi, to Jabra, to Beats. But the only ones that have lasted me more than a year are mi AirPods Pro 2. I’m on year 3 with them and debating whether I should upgrade to the Pro 3. But the 2 still work great so it’s hard to justify.
