  • most places require multiples plates so that’s stretching.

    Wait, you're arguing in my defense now that a plural supports my reading of an individual instead of an entire system?

    You’d have to intentionally misconstrue it to get that definition

    So you're saying what I did was intentionally say something I didn't believe? That's your argument? But wait, two posts ago you said my fault was different:

    No, you just commented without thinking.

    So which is it, was it carelessness on my part or did I intentionally misconstrue it?

    You wanted a “gotcha”, fucked up and are now trying to justify it, stop.

    Did you miss me admitting three posts up that I made a mistake? I don't know why you're searching so hard for a fault, when I already told you I made an honest mistake, and why I made that mistake.

    Nope.

    Then now you have become what you appear to hate. Your own position is now hypocritical. There are multiple readings, I have admitted my fault and now you are the only one that remains unapologetic for your mistake. Keep posting replies if you like. I am now thoroughly confused what you're trying to accomplish.

  • Roku and TCL are being sued for allegedly bricking smart TVs with bad updates

    Jump

  • …ok I’ve never felt more justified in completely turning off my TCL’s ability to connect to the internet, then.

    My main TV is an originally bricked Vizio from a bad update. I was able to buy a replacement logic board for $20 to get the TV to work again. When I reassembled it I intentionally never connected the TVs Wifi antennas to the logic board. The TV has been operating fine for close to 2 years now having never been attached to the internet.

  • I was asking about the song. Thats it. If you want to listen to a 3+ minute song to get a better understanding of the poster, you're welcome to. I'm not. If you want to accept the poster's points without the song, you're welcome to. I was interested in the poster's viewpoint. They included a song which appeared to hold a large part of their viewpoint with respect to an experience with a teacher. I still have no idea what they're talking about with the song. They communicated they aren't interested in explaining more. I've accepted that. If you really want to wrap yourself around the axle on this feel free. I won't be responding to you anymore.

  • No, you just commented without thinking.

    They clearly used the universal “you” and they pluralized the word “plates” making it non personal.

    Most jurisdictions I’m aware of have a plate on the front and back of the car. The plural still reads as a single car with my original reading.

    I fully admit I had the wrong reading with the additional viewpoint. Can you now admit that there are multiple ways to interpret the original post even if my first reading wasn’t the correct one?

  • They pluralized it, it clearly isn’t about someone’s personal plate, they were speaking at large.

  • Those two examples are not evidence, they are suppositions. They may be fine suppositions, but the poster provided a link that appears, by context, to be actual evidence. I respected the poster enough to ask what they meant by the song instead of just dismissing it.

  • I was also absolutely told this by at least one teacher, and in my case they weren’t wrong.

    Can you provide evidence to your point without having to listen to a 3+ minute song?

  • I had something similar in elementary school. There was an assignment given and something like 2 hours to do it. The reward was extra recess time. I saw the exercise knew I could do it quickly so I screwed around for about 1 hour and 50 minutes. The teacher saw this and commented on it. In the last 10 minutes I blasted out the assignment, handing it in when everyone else did. I received a passing grade on the assignment. The teacher stopped me anyway from getting the extra recess time because she didn't like that I spent so little time on the assignment even though I completed it sufficiently.

    I stopped trusting teachers for years because of that and so no reason to put in full effort when arbitrarily applied rules would take away the rewards anyway. That didn't mean I didn't put effort into learning, it just didn't really care about scoring well or doing assignments. I'd do well on tests, but had low grades from simply not completing or not turning in homework. Occasionally I'd even do the homework if I was working on grasping the concept being taught, but I didn't see a point of even turning those in many times even though they were complete.

  • Poster was unclear in what they were communicating. I get what they're saying now, but it was easy to read a different meaning.

  • When you were saying "you" it was not clear you were asking about the state's systems of distributing license plates containing both zero and O instead of this individual's license plate. The number of downvotes on your original post suggests I was not the only one confused by your statement.

  • How well can Electric vehicles(EVs) handle the heat — and the cold? AAA put them to the test

    Jump

  • 39% loss in cold is straight up false unless you’re talking like -20F.

    My guess is that this number may be possibly accurate for cars without a thermal management system for the battery. In the USA, this would be exactly one car model and even of those there are years where it would be fine: the Nissan Leaf.

    The Leaf came out in 2010 and has been air cooled until just this year in 2026. Some models had a battery heater though, but not all. I could see for a model without a heater and extreme cold the 39% range suppression. However, since its only one car, putting that 39% number is disingenuous because it suggest its more widespread when it isn't.

  • I’m not putting all my negative feelings into a company sponsored LLM to fucking have it say, “no relax guy, it’ll be OK.” Like it’s a fucking clanker.

    I'd be more concerned with any company sponsored AI chatbot therapist using what you say influence your employment relationship.

    Employee X: I'm worried about losing my job so I work unpaid overtime and that is affecting my marriage.

    Therapist chatbot to management: Employee X should not be given a raise. They already have enough external motivation to work without additional financial incentives.

  • Just make hot swapping batteries normal again like it used to be.

    In your ideal scenario would you own multiple batteries and keep them at your house, or are you looking for a subscription service where you would just buy the car (batteryless?) and then go to a rental station to have one put in, swapping batteries when they need a charge?
