The great JFEGs of our time

Reminds me of Above Znoneofthe

I’m ok with an article, but I much prefer it when someone accompanies it with a discussion in the body or comments.

Range anxiety is what pushed me to buy a Bolt over other EVs, but I do find that practically I don’t need as many kms as it offers, especially in the summer.

Opinion: 400km is overkill for city driving in warm climates. Half the battery/range would be fine for virtually all daily use. I know everyone will anecdotally state their use case on why 200km is insufficient, but that’s basically what the article is saying is part of the problem.

I love my bolt, but most other EVs are not its size. Only the i3 and the Mini come to mind.

The article doesn’t whiff on this, it lays out why it’s too expensive.

1. The strategy was to replace gas cars with EV 1-to-1 to solve the climate crisis and save the car industry.
2. Gas cars have gotten bigger over the years because of marketing, bravado, “safety”, and regulation-skirting.
3. EV-makers have largely bought into that and made all these huge EVs.
4. Huge EVs require bigger batteries which are more expensive in raw materials and manufacturing.
5. Huge batteries are heavy and dangerous.
6. Range anxiety has encouraged even more oversized batteries on already oversized cars.
7. Huge batteries are the main source of cost, meaning EVs end up being a luxury.

So, yes–they are too damn expensive, however a vehicle that meets our actual needs wouldn’t be, if it existed in North America.

You can edit the title. Maybe

Signal fights disinformation about fake zero-day vulnerability

Would love an invite. I have wanted to dip my toes into private trackers for years.

I don’t have any words of consolement, but I’d just like to say that you were one of the first lemmy users I found on beehaw and I’ve enjoyed your comments and posts.

Good. Got my first piercings and started a project to convert a bakfiets to an ebike with a Bafang mid-drive motor.

I switched from Nova/Pixel Launcher to KISS and it made my phone experience so much better.

Yep. I was a keto “success” story, felt like I could maintain lazy keto forever.

Then it hit me that I was literally scared of pasta.

I have friends that eat when they are hungry and aren’t guilty after having a milkshake. They never diet. They don’t stress about food or think about calories or macronutrients. They seem fine and often are athletic!

I wanted to get more of that. It cost me my flat stomach, but honestly just being able to enjoy good food without binging + binge regret is worth it alone. There are other benefits, too, but going anti-diet does require a different king of mental hardiness and effectively makes you counter culture.

It’s not easy telling people that I don’t want to lose weight or that I’m not watching what I eat. I try to avoid it. If they press it, I end up having to defend the idea that people can do what they want? I dunno. It’s a whole paradigm shift.

Anyway, I have mostly become one of the aforementioned people. I eat to my heart’s content and some might think I moderate when watching from afar, but IE is truly “no food rules”. When you don’t restrict, food becomes more neutral and thus regulation can become internal instead of a mental game of willpower and calorie/carb math.

I truly think it’s the best thing I’ve done for myself in years but I am always reluctant to spread the word because everyone’s journey with their body is hyper personal. Being anti-diet doesn’t mean you persecute people who do diet…that would be mean. Everyone is just doing their best.

Practicing intuitive eating repaired my relationship with food after 8 years of (maybe disordered) keto dieting. Then, I had to challenge body image issues—ongoing—but I feel so much better in my body and my relationship to food and movement than when I strictly dieted and exercised.

I love how sassy The Verge’s coverage of reddit is.

Excellent. A solid foods tracker is the one feature that is missing and would let me switch from Huckleberry!

I think the real life version of this is moving away

I’m a programmer. Just wanted to pop in and say that we shifted last year to a 32-hour 4-day workweek after we were bleeding good staff.

It’s life-changing. My work-life balance got an instant upgrade. What used to be a hard week is now so much more bearable. I can look forward to my weekend and actually take a full day to relax without worrying about losing half my weekend.

At the company I work at (in software R&D, about 40% of the workforce), I’m a strong advocate for remote-first policies. My immediate boss understands a lot of my concerns, but seems to deeply want to return. When asked why, they come up with these vague ideas of connectedness and poetic visions of sparks flying in the creative process afforded by a meeting room.

Yet only it’s only them and the sales department in the office day-to-day. I think they just want some company but don’t want to outright say that.
