Is it the EV part, or is it the upper-middle to upper market segment part? The Dacia spring is pretty popular in Western Europe and actually affordable.

Let’s be honest though. I’m a big fan of Linux/Unix systems, but if (not saying that’s necessarily the case) a normal user can break their installation by being a normal user, it’s not suited for normal users.
Windows is a pain in the ass imo, but pretty hard for a normal user to break in my experience.

Imagine using beta software as a daily driver

One doesn’t have to exclude the other. I sense the irony in saying this, being Dutch (whose country is considered a tax haven for the rich and corporations unfortunately), but we don’t have to pay for tax software at least. Worst case, you’ll pay for a tax advisor/accounted if you have a really complicated situation with shit like alimony and wish to squeeze every last cent from it.

So your government could do what the commenter above suggested for 99% of the population. Got it.
Because that’s what they do in my country. Your income is pre-filled, and most people don’t need to do anything other than double check it and click submit. If you want to get tax breaks for edge cases like uncovered medical care, extra schooling, travel costs as a freelancer, etc., you just follow the mostly easy steps and fill that in.

It really is just Reddit 2.0 here sometimes…

Unused RAM is wasted RAM, though. Your computer will know when to free it up for more important stuff.

For critical safety information/warnings, I’m on the side of the authorities here. Same reason that emergency stops on machinery should have clear, contrasting colours.
If it were about the font size for the clock or the AC, I’d be on your side, though.

Honestly, it’s not like traditional automakers have a good track record of reliable software, either. Have you seen older infotainment systems? It’s like they got someone’s nephew to do the programming, and like they made UI/UX decisions by throwing darts at pictures stuck to the wall to determine the flows.

Prime is extra useless here, except for maybe the free shipping. Overnight shipping is the default here for all webshops, except Amazon lol.

I’m decently sure that macOS already does something somewhat similar. If a program wants to access files outside its own directory, you get asked for explicit permission to do that.

Though not Chinese, there are companies nowadays offering conversion kits for older, ICE cars. Electric Twingo, here I come!
