The problem with using it as a search engine is that if it doesn't know the answer it commonly makes things up. I tried using it for work but it got details wrong enough to make it useless.

Most search engines are practically unusable due to the massive amount of garbage AI generated sites that take up the search results while having just platantly false information.

Veebimajutus. They are a local registrar in my country and I like to support local businesses.

I have rotated between countless titles over several decades. What I do hasn't really changed. Currently I'm not even aware what my official title is and when someone asks I usually say something along the lines of I make IT go but in my native language.

I have heard others complain about it but as long as I have used Firefox videos haven't autoplayed on anything so I would hate if they did that but currently I'm good

Large centralised social media platform should all be banned. I miss the times when all you had was forums hosted in someone's basement, the Internet was a better place. Short form video content is the worst of the bunch though.

I'm so glad amazon is useless in my country due to high delivery times and fees. Local stores never vanished and their online stores are so much better.

They don't seem to mention how fast batteries actually degrade, how old those vehicles are, what climate conditions they are used or how many charging cycles are on those. It's all well and good if the 15000 cars have a low amount of battery replacements but without knowing the conditions it's kinda useless.

Like where I am the temperature goes from -20C to +30C pretty much every year and in those conditions the makers rate the lifespan from 8 - 12 years.

Unfortunately used EVs are still decades away from being viable since after 10 years you hit the point you most likely start needing to replace the battery. You aren't buying used if you need to invest more in replacement parts than the car itself.

I'm fine with that though, we need vehicles on rails instead. 80% of all microplastic are from tires.

I don't think I even know what the brand names are, like only active ingredient names are on the packaging here.

Pretty much anything Google is giving me says they are using deep learning LLMs in biology.

Have you seen like an MSSQL database? That is a lot more readable and easier to display on a frontend. Also like every blockchain have an existing open source frontend you can redesign the look a bit and just use.

A blockchain to manage a database for vehicles takes as much resources as a classic database. What causes the huge and ridiculous power drain is mining, which is not something you would be doing for a database to store vehicles.
