My local grocery had self checkout for about a year before ripping them out and putting normal ones back in. They don’t seem to be understaffed.

Not all stores are awful on all fronts. They don’t have chairs for their checkout people yet though.

What if calling it plague is the cover up?

Would be especially effective against Nestle. Advertise that you’re going to poison products from the company, do it successfully, then advertise you’ll do it again.

I’m talking about apartments and workplaces.

Apartments would pay for it, not individuals. Having EV chargers would be a selling point, allowing higher rent.

Poor people are generally not driving EVs yet.

Think like a business and it makes sense.

That’s only $10/mo over a 5 year period.

Ugh, greedy landlords.

We bought an EV and it took a few trips for it to click that you don’t need to charge to 100% or even 90%. Hook it up, hit the restroom, buy a latte, then get back on the road with 50% charge.

You only need enough to get to wherever your longer parking+charge is going to be.

We also figure out the range anxiety. Getting down to 10% isn’t a big deal, especially if that last stop is going to get you back to full charge. Our EV doesn’t even have that great of range to start with.

Considering how inexpensive it is to put in a 30A, 50A, or 60A circuit, and how modern L2 chargers can both downrate dynamically and be activated with simple apps or cards, this is not a difficult problem to solve.

Unused ram is wasted ram.

That’s it, peak meme has been achieved.

Bring back? They never left.

I felt my back in this post.

Dream. Or picture anything from memory.

I have an idea in my mind, but it’s not a picture or video like most people have. It’s just very difficult to “see” something.

McDonald’s Prime.

sadly this is the most believable.

He’s got a goofy look. It was later discovered that the actor basically took it too far and intentionally overly opened his eyelids for every damn take. That commitment to being on the trek spectrum earned the character lifetime membership onto the internet.

Oh wow this guy has no idea how capitalism works, nor geopolitics.
