Nah, Chicagos a great town with excellent food, culture, museums and events. Lots of festivals in the summer, it runs along a beatuiful lake with nice beaches, it has great people, all in all I love Chicago. Full disclosure, there are neighborhoods with high crime, it is unfortunately super segregated, and cold as hell in the winter.

I mean I very much want an electric truck just not for $70,000+, I need a a vehicle that can do the following:

• Carry a 4 person family
• Is reliable/newer/won't break down
• Can do trips to the hardware store/hold lumber/drywall/etc on occasion
• Can move furniture/appliances on occasion
• Can move hay/straw on a semi regular basis
• Bonus points if I can take off road/on mountain trails

If there was an affordable electric truck that could do this I would buy it, but I bought my (used) Tacoma for about $25k 4 years ago and I really can't justify anything more expensive then that.

So if they can bring electric trucks down in price, I will buy one, and I want it to look like a truck, I would never consider a cyber truck, thats beyond ugly.

Ford lays off 700 who were building electric version of F-150 | CNN Business::Ford is laying off about 700 workers who build the F-150 Lightning, the electric version of its best-selling pickup truck, and unlike other recent layoffs this one has nothing to do with the ongoing strike by the United Auto Workers union.

Ugh, no I don't want to throw a bunch of hay and straw inside a van, you'll have straw stuck in the crevices of the dashboard forever.

I'm actually fine with it, in the case of Lemmy this is all public data, whether or not Lemmy admins are training AI on it, there is nothing to stop me from training my own AI models with this data.

I think the larger issue is I don't consider it "your data" once you put it on one of these sites. As soon as you take your own thought and put it on facebook/instagram/reddit/whatever, it's now theirs, it lives in their databases, and frankly for a social media company it's probably their most valuable asset.

No one is forcing anyone to use social media, if you want your thoughts and actions to be your own I would recommend not putting them on the internet.

Code documentation is like sex, when it's good it's great, and when it's not good...it's still better then no documentation.
