some people in my area are getting 5-7yo used teslas from neighbouring euro countries for like 15-20k after people sold them bc of what happened with el0n and honestly
and you know i don't like the guy or his worldview/ideas or particularly personally like teslas
i think that attacking them for buying these used cars (and i have heard some people irl do exactly that) is kinda stupid/counter-productive?
i know nuance is illegal online but the car has been manufactured already and someone gotta drive it before the batteries eventually die
and for that price it's a pretty great deal and it's not like the money is going to him or anything
at the same time i totally get not wanting to "support" the brand but idk like the car has been made already, not using it would effectively turn it into waste
if you have any takes on this lmk though, i am genuinely curious

i have just learned by complete accident that the US does not use IBAN/SEPA at all???
do you guys actually have to pay fees to send money between different banks domestically???? genuine question this is all news to me lol
i know SEPA was originally a european project but since other countries started adopting it too i kinda assumed you guys got it too, but apparently that is not the case

malcolm in the middle has aged incredibly well
the later seasons kinda go a bit too over the top with the plotlines but honestly it's still very very funny (and relatable as someone who grew up broke in a small crowded loud household lmao)

it's that time of the week when i get into a non tech rabbit hole for no fucking reason and i bring you all along with me
a few days ago i was bored and browsing wikipedia late at night and I was curious to find out why Thailand was named like that since i recalled that historically it was called the Kingdom of Siam (i don't know too much about SEA but i remembered this small thing from a joke in an old Simpsons episode lol)
turns out it got renamed in 1939 by a military dictator who took power in a coup and that the guy was straight up a Mussolini larper down to copying both his aesthetic and even the fucking fascist salute lol
he also ended up allying with Japan/the axis but ironically just like italy they switched sides at the last second and ended up with the allies
unfortunately all of this also meant he did stuff like banning traditional clothes (some of them exposed women's breasts and he wanted to stop that in order to be taken more "seriously" by western nations), pushing ethno-nationalism and in general trying to unify the nation under a singular “Thai” identity
when eventually he was ousted from power the King regained power but a lot of the changes he made to the country ended up staying in place (including the new name of the country)

if i had one euro for every time my low attention span led me into a random rabbit hole and i ended up discovering the origin of something is somehow related to world war 2 shenanigans i would probably at least be able to buy a used toyota corolla

interface design used to be cool and fun and everything didn't just look like a fucking roku btw
we just let companies get lazy because we keep buying their slop anyways even when it sucks ass and they justify it by saying it's "more user accessible and intuitive to use"

another game menu i think is worth remembering is the one from toca race driver, where you are just chilling and navigating a recreation of a contemporary computer UI to accept deals and set up races
