  • Japan’s automakers are keeping sports cars alive in the EV era

    Jump

  • a small 2 door sports car, but it sure won’t be an EV. They’re not going to appeal to the part of the market who likes performance cars

    Porsche will be releasing an EV in the Boxster/Cayman class and I think it's going to prove you wrong by selling like hotcakes

  • Germany handed over another package of military aid to Ukraine.

    Jump

  • yeah the excuse was it was tantamount to active participation in the war because the missiles would need german sourced map data. Well boo fucking hoo, as if russia gives a shit about such technicalities anymore. They're getting their shit pushed in by Ukraine warriors with western support anyway, whether that one missile had even more western bits in it than usual doesn't matter at all

    Jump

  • well yes as far as I know Germany is among the list of countries who gave pledged post war support to rebuild Ukraine

  • Work email translations

    Jump

  • boring work stuff, they entered wrong data and made a ticket to fix it several months after the fact. That data they enter is the input for a bunch of calculations, so cleaning up that mess is a lot of work and I'm the only one equipped to do it. They should be well aware of the importance of being exact with what they enter and only signing off on it when they're 100% sure it's correct, yet they keep messing it up. They made a stupid excuse about having to sign off on it even though they knew it wasn't 100% done, when it's been made perfectly clear that this is unacceptable regardless of circumstances because of legal ($$$$) ramifications

    edit: I should add that those ramifications are potentially severe enough to bankrupt us. That particular administrative body does not fuck around and will tear us a new one if they smell blood

  • today, I used the word negligent in a work email. They done fucked up and I'm tired of their shit

  • of course this exists, why am I even surprised

  • Do you interact more in Lemmy?

    Jump

  • not really, I mostly interacted with niche communities on reddit that haven't made the switch

  • Great talk

  • sorry

    I don't find it very useful to interject with "sorry" unless you actually have something to apologize for. Although sometimes if I interrupt someone and feel like that was a bit more rude than I was planning for, I apologize afterwards

  • This week in KDE: colorblindness correction filters

  • oh it would for simple graphics like graphs/charts, but it'd be worse than useless for everything else like pictures / photos / video. That's why I mentioned Overwatch as the example, which was the most egregious offender of this. If you turned on the colorblind mode in that game back when it was first introduced, it just chroma hue shifted all colors making it look like this:

    how anyone with a functioning eye and brain ever thought that was the solution is beyond me
