If it comes out to 20 dollars per car and you multiply it by 50000 a year for a relatively popular model there is a nice bonus for the ceo.
Or you could just raise the price of the car by $20 since you’ve just added thousands in value?
I mean shit, let’s take the seats out of the car! Bam! Just saved you billions, right? /s
GOG is a once-off payment of $6
Where do I send this?
I dunno. Cadillac has been doing this for decades and show no sign of stopping. I had them in my Chevy Volt and they were infuriating.
You know how expensive it is to mold unique dedicated physical buttons for every function and then wire them all over the place?
Not expensive. You don’t have to “wire them all over the place”, you just put them on a PCB and connect them to the nearest CAN bus, or similar.
E: refunded Mirror’s Edge, it was running at like 5 FPS on low settings.
Given the current administration, I’d be very unsurprised if that disappears.
Which one is NOT on that list?

Their new $85k Charger will surely save them…
Hyundai and now VW? Who’s next?
So buying a Tesla means you pay for features you can’t use without additional payment.
Most cars have this these days, unfortunately. At least you can purchase Tesla’s with a one-time payment where everyone else offers only subscriptions.
I’ve been stuck at the same part of Control for months. The new update still hasn’t fixed it.
On top of that they added full screen adds for Alan Wake II, which surely is a ToS violation to advertise games that aren’t even available and link to stores outside of Steam…
What if they are? Does FCC have the authority to force them to carry or promote “faith-based programming”?
As someone who runs a streaming service, I wouldn’t allow it.
Firefox? You mean the company they give several hundred million dollars/year? Yeah I don’t think they’re too worried. They need some number of users on Firefox to prevent anti-trust issues. Which they’re on the brink of right now.
BYD is Chinese. Very common there.
Not nearly as massive
This says nothing about how they undercut Tesla (and every other non-Chinese automaker) but I’ll tell you:
“Creating your own feed” implements algorithms that surfaces content for you, rather than you having to go searching for it. I’ve already explained how Lemmy is different and I don’t know how to be clearer about that.
Why do so many people assume everyone on the Fediverse is a software developer?
Yes. What do I do about that?
