Can’t really give you a reply, but I suggest you to just go to a dealership and take whatever ioniq you are most interested in for a test drive. I sometimes to that just for fun, even though I’m not even actually interested in buying one lol. tbf, I get that sometimes dealerships are quite far to go to, but having an hour or two with a car to drive around really gives you a good idea of how you like it.

also regenerative charging causes brake pads to wear much more slowly. to the point that sometimes the rotors start to rust badly because the actual brakes get used so little.

Yes, obviously the second comment was written by a non-US person. Nobody is trying to say otherwise.

Your original comment starts with pointing out that there isn’t just US English, and quite rudely so. Again, nobody is trying to say otherwise. The third comment was just a US person clearing up the non-US person’s conception about the usage of words in the US. So you pointing out that there are people outside of the US, who use words differently than people inside the US was entirely unnecessary. That’s what most people are taking issue with, I think.

Again, it’s kinda funny how much effort you’re putting into this. It feels a lot like you’re just trying to be correct in some way, instead of just admitting that your first comment was out of line. Welcome to my block list, and goodbye.

I have an account there but literally only used it for entering giveaways lol

How convenient to leave out the third comment, the one you replied to.

The second comment was not just “higlighting a difference in US English versus English elsewhere”, it was claiming that US English calls jam jelly, and the third one corrected that claim.

Of course there are other English speaking countries besides the US, but the third comment was absolutely justified in correcting what the second comment claimed. It’s not like there was some person from the US who said that all English is like that, making your comment pretty unnecessary.

Its kinda funny how much effort you put into this comment, despite the context pretty clearly being about US English

Dry air will allow more sweat to evaporate, providing the cooling effect right on your skin instead of in the air you blast at yourself. It’s basically the better swamp cooler.

That’s kinda the exact opposite. Not many people want to use small instances, so not many people are interested in fixing something like that. However, let’s say lemmy.world becomes unusable because of too much cross-server communication. That would cause inconvenience to way more people, increasing the likelihood that someone will do the work to fix it.

Idk, I didn’t like it. Might just be the people around here who use it tho. The way the 16 personalities test thingy is ingrained there also kinda rubbed me the wrong way.

I’m sure if we reach that point, someone will add a method for batching cross-server communication. That’s the beauty of FOSS

That’s pretty creepy. I had computer voices asking me whether I agree to being recorded for training purposes when calling customer support and the likes. But never during a private call.

Maybe contact/write to your provider or something?

In places where glass is reused, it’s definitely the best option. It’s heavier so it has a higher co2 output during transport but glass bottles can be reused up to 50 times, saving co2 in the long run.

But I have to concede, in america aluminum is probably the best option.

Why do so many people hate cottage cheese? I love the texture and it tastes pretty bland, so you can just add some herbal salt and pepper to make it pretty tasty

I was also thinking “sure, big animals are scary. But have you considered the tiny #1 human killer?”

It didn’t take long for this video to make me shudder. Cool, but creepy.

Lol I wasn’t aware of that being a thing, here in Germany we usually only say that Bielefeld (a German city) doesn’t exist.

But isn’t Dane a noun? I thought the adjective was danish.

That’s not the point of the comment, and not even what they said

Ohh thanks for chiming in! A lot of cool info in your comment, especially that last part about the bumps at the bottom of glass bottles.

I can only agree that aluminum is better than plastic, but I’m not sure about hexagonal cans. The cans we know nowadays are insanely well engineered and only use a minute amount of material, taking advantage of the pressure of carbonized drinks. I don’t think there’s any way to increase packing efficiency of Aluminium cans without increasing material thickness to an unreasonable degree. But regardless, if all drink containers were regulated to be Aluminium (or glass), it would certainly be a big improvement.

yeah, absolutely! I’m not trying to say that aluminium is a bad material. Just that it’s not the right choice as a drink container, at least once you convince the population to return bottles to the store (the deposit system here in germany works pretty well. when people don’t want to return the bottles, they put them next to the closest trash can, so homeless people can collect them and return them to the store for a small reward)
