Buying a new car is worse than keeping an old one

Also, what do you think happens to your car when you replace it with an electric car? Do most people just drive their old cars into the ocean when they upgrade?

ch00f, (edited ) to asklemmy in What cheap tool/gadget do you use that greatly improves your daily life?

Magnetic soap holder.

You shove a little metal bit into your soap bar, and the bar dangles from a magnet on a stand that holds it over the sink.

Soap dries quickly, no scum in the soap dish, any drippage falls right into the sink.

Only downside is the magnet falls out when the bar gets smaller, so you have to mash the old bar into the bottom of the new one to keep from wasting it.

Electric cars are indeed much worse for the climate at production time than combustion cars likely will be throughout their entire lifetime.

Break even point is currently around 13k miles though it depends on where you live.

And that’s not even counting the growing market of battery recyclers.

I love how some old military tech is like some shit an 8 year old would think up.

As someone who has operated a camera before, I have a hard time believing this camera ever took a single useful picture.

Why not?

Fear of robotic dogs.

ch00f, to movies in what are some of the most glaring and significant mistranslations in movies? add spoiler tags if necessary, please.

One of my favorites is in Volver. The woman murders her husband and had to come to the door when a neighbor knocks. She has blood splattered on her face.

The English translation has her explain “I cut myself,” while the original Spanish is a much funnier “women’s troubles,” which better explains the confused look on the neighbor’s face.

Though don’t get me started on how many things are called “holograms.”

Pepper’s ghost isn’t a hologram. It’s just a reflection with more steps.

There’s a great video explaining cartoon animal neckties: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWo5aUzJ4_c

TL;DR: It’s a shortcut that allows the animators to animate the body at a lower framerate than the head (like standing still and speaking).

ch00f, to asklemmy in What's a true fact that is so misleading it's borderline misinformation?

Switching from a 5mpg truck to a 10mpg truck does more for the environment than switching from 40mpg car to a 55mpg car.

ch00f, to upliftingnews in Denver experimented with giving people $1,000 a month. It reduced homelessness and increased full-time employment, a study found.

I swear there has been a big uptick on the other site of videos depicting and celebrating the brutalization of shoplifters.

I think people are increasingly inclined to just hate poor people.

ch00f, to memes in awww, you're sweet

Because OP didn’t want to pay for content-aware fill.

ch00f, to asklemmy in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?
