  1. Sorry yes I meant 1000km, not 100km, like in my other question.

If you mean 1000km, still the same time, because in both cases, the driver needs to take 30mins mandatory rest breaks.

And refueling time? Hours for the EV. A minute for the diesel.

Truck drivers have mandatory rest breaks…

If you think truck drivers abide by these mandatory rest breaks you're delusional.

EV are 80%+ cheaper PER KM to operate. Diesel is substantially worse now, and every year, batteries are getting CHEAPER. Diesel is getting MORE EXPENSIVE!

EVs might be cheaper to operate, but not when you already have diesel vehicles that don't need to be replaced for another 600k+ km. Battery manufacturing costs are getting cheaper, but cost to consumer is staying the same, and will only increase as we become more dependant on it.

I would love to buy a $35k BYD Atto 2 and pay a few bucks to recharge it.........but I already have an owned outright diesel runaround car that gets 800km to a ~$60 tank. How long would it take me to make $35k in savings after buying the BYD? Much longer than the lifespan of the BYD.

When you're in the market for a new car, EVs are super attractive. When you've already got a car, however, switching to one makes zero sense.

Again, 300 mining trucks have been ordered by Fortescue… I’m sure they’ve done the maths

Cool, lets see them actually receive and use them before we go and claim victory. Many companies have ordered fleets of electric vehicles to replace their diesel/petrol ones only to never actually drive a single km with them.

reported crime figures mean nothing when an african gang break into your house with machetes.

More crime is more crime at the end of the day.

Literally just MacOS with docker and tailscale. Haven't needed anything else.

You will also find that password managers tend to relock their database after a period of time in order to limit the opportunity for an attack.

They have the option to, yes. They also have the option to basically never ask for reauthentication.

Files containing login credentials should be encrypted, yes.

Windows has encryption on by default. They are encrypted. They're decrypted when you log in.

You can only install an app approved by Apple as they control who are allowed into the ecosystem in the first place.

And all the cloud backup providers have apps on the App Store already. I personally have backups going to 3 separate ones - and I don't use Apple's first party service lol.

but it does take a little setup of infrastructure.

Understatement of the century lol.

Even if you do all of what @rumba@lemmy.zip wrote below, getting your friends and family access is another big hurdle because most likely their devices they use won't have JellyFin support.

Try get your grandparents to stream your jellyfin server on their TV. Try explaining tailscale or a vpn to them.

Yes, police tend to give more priority to crimes against their property. That's to be expected. That's reasonable. If someone stole a police car and equipment do you not think that deserves priority over a random stolen hyundai getz? It absolutely does because it's a police car. If a police car gets damaged that's less police resources that can be out there catching other criminals.

Remote streaming securely and easily is what you're missing.

[–] FreedomAdvocate -1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yes. You can't get in a police car unless a police officer puts you in one.

[–] FreedomAdvocate 0 points 4 months ago

JellyFin does not do the same thing. JellyFin doesn't securely allow users anywhere in the world on any network to stream your media.

It certainly doesn’t cost what they’re charging.

That's how services and products work. If they sold their product at cost, they'd go bankrupt. They're actually charging peanuts for the service they provide.
