Given that we'll unlikely get @EUCommission to abolish #Spyware like #eCall from #cars I propose that instead, manufacturers need to look outside that impractical envelope if they want to build #EVs (even #BEVs ffs!) that people can actually afford by focussing on other Vehicle classes.

  • I know #L2e may be deemed too restrictive at a deadweight of 270kg, 4kW output [measured on the wheels], 45km/h tops and 1+1 capacity even tho this will be sufficient for most trips from #suburbia to #downtown in car-centric shitholes like #LA during #RushHour but I digress...

  • #L5e removes the weight limitations (unlike #L6e & #L7e which only allows #batteries to be discounted from it's 425kg/450kg-600kg max deadweight) and keeps things at a reasonable 15kW output [system output] which is almost precisely 1/3 of my car but with #ElectricVehicles there's way more #torque and thus #acceleration, which is what makes a vehicle actually feel fast and zippy, so it should be on-par if not feel faster given that #Autobahn segments without speed limits are an exception and noone in their right mind expects a sub-€10k PLV to be cushy like an Audi A4.

  • Also for fuck sake give us a goddamn #CCS2 #charging socket on the vehicle not just on €13k+ luxury scooters but on like everything because that's an #EU standard and every actual #ChargingStation should support that. If necessary make it a single-phase charging thing if that's the only way possible!

My hope is that #euroNCAP will #ban most of these #Enshittification - designs entirey and demand #AntiEnshittification - ideally with mandating all controls must be accessible with physical buttons, switches and dials without exceptions!

"Smart Home"-Geräte sind oft nicht wirklich smart.

Jeff Gerling gibt hier drei Eigenschaften, die ein smartes Gerät erfüllen sollte:

1. Local => nur lokales Netzwerk
2. Private => keine persönlichen Daten verlassen das Netzwerk
3. Additive => das Gerät kann alles, was auch das nicht-smarte konnte (z.B. Lichtschalter mechanisch betätigen)

@rei Thanks. I’d be interested in discussing fair pricing models in this thread if possible. I’d like them to get paid. However, I also want to make sure they make a pledge to avoid the MO of 100% of Silicon Valley startups. Venture capital is an all-pervasive cancer on open source technologies.

@sternentau @Ultralativ warum auf @torproject / #Tor?

Quasi #AntiEnshittification oder besser gesagt "#Engoodening"-Garantie...
