When it comes to consumer behaviour, people flocking to the cheaper product and actively saying "I don't care about the supply chain! Give me my cheap phone/AI art" while others keep trying to draw attention to unethical practices? It's a very close parallel. Maybe the harm feels less tangible when spread out over orders of magnitude more people, or when you're so accustomed to abusive ToS conditions giving away your rights, but it's still there.

Right dummy, so what in your mind means right to repair? Change a belt, chain, tire? Go to fucking trade school, become a journeyman mechanic, and after 10,000 hours and actually working on things, feel free to discuss this topic. You obviously don’t have a clue. As for calling farmers stupid they’re anything but stupid. Read this entire conversation from the start, and show me where I called anyone stupid other than your comments. Do you think you’re qualified to do a John Deere mechanic’s job because someone said you can? Big difference between stupid and just not having knowledge about things. Now go off to school, bug bye.

i mean that already exists.

there are alternate browsers.

just like internet explorer dominated for awhile. google isn't the best, it's just the most prevalent.

and don't fucking kid yourself that congress is going to do anything. just like exactly nothing happened to microsoft when it legit uses it's monopoly to kill netscape/other browsers. exactly nothing will happen to google. except... maaaaybe a tiny fine.

I mean its February. Why wouldn't they open them up now that the government is handing out free money to do what they were planning on doing anyway?

>Jimmying into their system is no credit to Tesla. The adapters trick the chargers.

That's strange since Tesla sells on their website charging stations that work with non-EVs. But I guess Tesla doesn't get credit for that because ...reasons.

>Tesla also started to install J1772 ports (fewer than Tesla ports, but still) with their destination chargers at some sites (like hotels, etc.) after a while.

In other words they started doing last year what you said they didn't.
