Has anyone regretted buying a fully electric car? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you have a place to charge it and potentially another car to swap/borrow for road trips it is pretty much the best vehicle for city driving/daily commute.

  1. Charging at home is much cheaper and healthier for the battery. If you can't charge at home I wouldn't get an EV.
  2. Ask yourself how often you do road trips. Depending on where you live a 6-7 hour drive can easily turn into 12+ hours because of waiting around for charging if the chargers are not close enough to each other to utilise charging at the lowest battery % possible. Even the tesla supercharger network can be quite sparce outside of urban/wealthy areas.
  3. Price - EVs are still quite expensive compared to ice in general, and depreciation can be killer. A used tesla model 3 is basically half the price now compared to what it was a few years ago when new. Check what kind of tax breaks or other benefits you can get in your region or consider buying used.

It's better than nothing. Also I'd probably weigh the opinion of people who have the extension higher than of those who don't.

Motorsport. If break dance can be a sport why not this?

What term would you want to use for a fast, light, high performance vehicle instead?

Somewhere between top-right and top-middle depending on how revoked his license is at the given moment and how much vicodin he is on.

So there is this app claiming on-device iMessage functionality on Android. Seems cool but only has subscription based pricing. Does anyone know of a way to circumvent this?

Edit: I found this but it seems a bit dodgy

Is there an extension to create tab groups for Firefox? (lemmy.zip)
 

I'm looking for something like the tab stacking from Vivaldi or just the way chrome handles tab groups.

I've tried simple tab groups before but it was occasionally a bit janky and I was looking for a different UI implementation. Not really keen on using a sidebar either and the majority of extensions I found all seemed to be using the sidebar.

Code-compile and (de)compression are (kinda) valid android benchmarks scenarios now. (lemmy.zip)
 

I've been using Youtube ReVanced for a while now and noticed the great patches for other apps also available in ReVanced manager. If you are unfamiliar ReVanced can patch other apps with additional functionality such as blocking ads and correcting other annoyances like re-enabling taking screenshots.

The whole process involves downloading, upacking, patching, repacking, and installing an APK file and it has shown the slightly aging side of my phones SD845 chip, as it takes a few minutes to complete with larger apps. Its not something that comes up too often, but when it does, it could go a bit smoother.

I wouldn't mind seeing some numbers for this workflow when choosing my next phone.

Is there a way to check the posts you upvoted? (lemmy.zip)
 

Is there a way to see what posts you have upvoted? I was trying to show a cool thing I saw on lemmy earlier to someone but I can't seem to find a list of my past upvotes.

I tried looking in Jerbora, Summit and Liftoff (still trying out the android apps), and also on the webpage of my instance, but none of these seem to have it.

Sorry if this has been asked, Google hasn't returned anything relevant.

Is Twitter becoming part of the Dark Web? (lemmy.zip)
 

Just had a shower thought.

As Twitter now requires a login and Google is apparently de-listing most search results for Twitter, it technically qualifies as a dark web website, something the media and Hollywood love to throw around as a scary phrase.

(It seems users still show up in Google and also some tweets, I just wanted to hear your opinions)
