100% agree

Ebay, and the local used market (something like Facebook marketplace or Craigslist)

Get on with the times, it’s microslop now.

We are talking about developing alternatives to US services, which, surprise, will need datacenters to run. You don’t provide email to 700 million people from an old laptop in a basement.

Datacenters are not inherently bad…

The thing is… it’s not blank. It’s painted, but someone complains no that the art is bad, but that they don’t like how it was painted. Well, nobody is forcing you to look at it, you can even paint it yourself.

4 billion can go a very long way.

They were already getting shafted, by your definition, as they were already buying digital only games.

3 years? About 15 years for me. Whenever civ 5 was released.

The roller has been solved a few years ago. The split-roller design doesn’t need any maintenance, no hair tangles in the two years I owned mine. Plenty of robots use it, as the patent expired.

What is your price range, a button and two shells? The S5 can be found for 50 bucks used.

At the risk of sounding like an ad, roborock (xiaomi) makes fantastic vacuums. Great navigation, great cleaning performance, obstacle avoidance (cables, socks, etc) depends on the model.

They do offer a meter interface if you want to have it offline, but I’m quite happy with the (cloud based) app, allows a bit more control.

It integrates with home assistant but it sometimes goes “unavailable”, the matter integration is a bit more stable for that.

I sure other manufacturers also have great ones, check “vacuum wars” on YouTube.

Lemmy users don’t care about reality, you’re talking to a brick wall basically.

It’s open source. Feel free to write your own software, or pay someone to do it for you.

You reduced it to about 70% of the population.

It’s in-ism

Are you guys autistic? They are obviously kidding…

Definitely, just a standard 230V socket should do. I moved to a house almost 2 years ago and I still haven’t installed a wallbox, we are charging two EVs from a standard German schuko socket (230V, 13A). It adds about 200km range per night, way more than we drive. We basically charge each car once a week, even in winter with the extra energy for reheating and all that.

Yes. I know the EU models best, but look at used bolts and leafs. Maybe the odd egolf or 500.

EVs have existed for 10+ years now. Plenty of used ones in the market, famously depreciated by now.
