It’s extremely difficult to have ethics while being involved in a capitalist system which is inherently unethical. Genuinely giving a damn and putting people ahead of profits is seen as a liability.
I’m sorry I don’t have any advice to give.
I’ll bet there is a website that calculates this stuff…
There is. Have fun!
My first guess is that it would have been overpriced and deliberately incompatible with existing chargers. No loss.
Everything it says is shit
What kind of fediverse search are you talking about? Provide a link. That would do much, much more than any explanations or testimonials possibly could.
Because people are dumb. If the machine knows when someone is looking at it, it can stop doing whatever it does to try and get your attention, and put itself in “sales mode”.
Still, you’re right. It seems like an overly complicated and expensive solution. Old-fashioned vending machines did the job just fine.
The only good thing to come out of this is that the cop quit. I hope he’s billed for the damage to the car anyway.
You provide an excellent example regarding training requirements. As part of those, I would also like to include safe use and home storage.
Yes, I’m American.
People with second amendment bumper stickers on their trucks seem to selectively forget the “well regulated” part.
You nailed it. That’s why I put “okay” in quotes. Those laws exist for a reason, and lionizing cops who break the law only teaches the public to accept that lawbreakers are okay if they’re on Team Good.
Unfortunately, what the government calls “good” and what you and I call “good” are often different things.
That’s “okay”, though, because we, the viewers, often know that the suspect is guilty. The cops still come off as good (and smart, with good intuition as well) because we know for certain that they’re doing the “right” thing.
That’s because most fictional cops have ethics, empathy, and a conscience.
This might have been interesting a few months ago, when they were getting the kind of free publicity that CEOs would kill for. Now that the momentum is gone, though, nobody cares. They took WAY too long to get their shit together.
This is by far my favorite answer.
Many young men have no political/financial power to begin with, and take generalized criticism personally. Some feminists are openly hostile and live up to the stereotypes. Those are the encounters people remember. I can see how gullible, spineless young men can fall into the trap of thinking that feminism is “harmful”.

I’ve never understood this thought process. Sure, getting some stuff out of their way makes sense (like getting shoes off the floor so the cleaners can vacuum), but why clean?
This is an excellent article. I work hard for my boss because my boss is good to me. I actively look for stuff to do because I give a shit about him and the people I work with. That is not the case when my employer treats me like a replaceable asset instead of a person.
Virtually any company big enough to make a worthwhile phone is going to do terrible things. Think a given company is an exception? They won’t be once they get larger.
That being said, the fact that “everybody does it” doesn’t make it okay. The “blue vs green bubble” shit is nonsense that’s totally unnecessary.
