  • I own a tesla model y and am already looking at replacing it. Vandalizing my car won’t help me replace it. I am also never going to buy another tesla again. I would have loved a Rivian but their suv was 15k more without the super charging network.

    The Elon Nazi salute didn’t happen until January 20th so 99% of tesla owners didn’t know he was a nazi when purchasing their cars.

    Considering almost all car companies were caught up in the emissions scandals, I am pretty sure most people vandalizing other people’s cars, own a car from a car company that destroyed the environment for profits. It isn’t that easy to avoid companies that do shitty things.

    Not advocating vandalism but tesla dealerships and showrooms make more sense as a target than individual owners.


  • I also had a similar experience with bazzite and ubuntu.
    Apps would look like they installed but they are nowhere. Tried the app store. Tried flatpak. It instilled but clicking on the icon wouldn’t launch anything. Ended up with two icons for the same app. One works one doesn’t. No easy way to uninstall non working app.

    Bazzite bluetooth stopped working after update. Had to run two commands found on the Bazzite forum to get it to work again. Steam wouldn’t update either. Had to run another command I found on the forum to get it to update.

    This is all last week. I am still running both but I wouldn’t call it ready for the non-IT user.

    The App Store has to work consistently for it to be accessible for the average person.

    I think people don’t understand the difference between a point, a service game, a set, and a match. One point isn’t crazy. She could just double fault or she can miss hit it. Serena had 56 unforced errors in one match against Wang Qiang. On her bad days, this is definitely possible. However, a service game is extremely unlikely. Winning a service game is what is needed to get on the scoreboard. I think the question is most likely poorly worded and means a service game.

    That being said, it is crazy if a person with no or little tennis experience thinks they can get a point off of her without her actually making a mistake.


  • Fastmail is a good non US alternative. Based in Australia.

    For those that don’t know about Proton. Proton CEO said “10 years ago, Republicans were the party of big business and Dems stood for the little guys, but today the tables have completely turned.” The company then doubled down on a Reddit post which it eventually deleted.

    You have to be blind or a liar to look at what the Republicans have done in the last 10 years and think they pro little guy.

    Despite claiming political neutrality, Proton later issued a statement reiterating its support for stronger antitrust measures, particularly against Big Tech. The company noted that regardless of broader political views on the Republican platform, the appointment of Gail Slater as head of the Justice Department’s antitrust division under Donald Trump was a positive step.

    So they don’t care how bad the government is as long as it helps them. So not a Nazi but willing to support them if they can get something out of it. Furthermore it is also not true. The US under Trump has threatened Europe multiple times to defend big Tech.

    Proton further argued that major tech companies were attempting to align with Trump because his administration posed an “unprecedented challenge to their monopolistic dominance.” This statement only fueled concerns that Proton was leaning politically despite its claims of neutrality.

    They don’t seem to understand what politically neutral is. Also if you wanted a president that went after big tech, Biden did way more than Trump:

    Under President Biden, the DOJ and FTC have taken a more aggressive approach to antitrust enforcement.

    The Justice Department filed another suit against Google over its dominance in the advertising technology space and sued Apple for allegedly monopolizing the smartphone market.

    Biden’s FTC also sued Amazon for antitrust violations, accusing the e-commerce giant of engaging in anticompetitive behavior to dominate the online retail space.

    Proton also lied about logging user data.

    In 2021, Proton Mail admitted to handing over a user’s IP address to Swiss authorities following a request from French law enforcement via Europol. This revelation contradicted Proton’s earlier claims that it did not log user data.


  • This is stupid. If you are going to vandalize a car for ideological reasons at least pick one you know what the person is thinking. Not every Tesla driver agrees with Musk. Most actually do not. There are plenty of jacked up MAGA trucks with hate stickers that can be vandalized if you insist on vandalizing a vehicle.

    IOS 18.3 has starlink connectivity so don’t forget to destroy all the iphones you see. Clearly all those iphone users support Musk.
