Arch is great when you’re somewhat experienced with Linux. Otherwise I recommend an Arch + QoL distro like EndeavourOS.
I’m a developer using Linux for well over a decade and a half and I use EndeavourOS because it just adds a level of ease.

This phenomenon is primarily due to fears of high repair costs, lack of technical information, and long lead times for replacement parts.
Vehicles that use batteries as structural elements are more prone to being totaled by insurance companies.
I think you’re missing what I’m saying here. I’m pointing out that Chinese auto makers don’t have the same processes as more experienced companies. They’re just slinging out cars into foreign markets with almost no extra work.
Besides, the article didn’t say the cars are “fine”, it quoted someone saying that they’ve seen some cars that would have been fixed quickly if it was a domestic brand because of part availability.
I don’t understand why you’re referring to China’s regulations all the time. They are irrelevant.
I wish they were, but those cars are made in China. There’s a lot that gets looked the other way.
And someone at Tesla said recently in an interview that they wanted to do a certain thing with the Cybertruck but couldn’t because “we couldn’t get the regulation changed on that one”. (I don’t remember what that specific thing was)
Aside from the batteries and fake auto-pilot, the non-Cybertruck Tesla’s have a very good track record.
It’s both. China’s lack of regulations make a bad thing worse.
lmao I have a very strong disdain for Tesla.

The reality is that I don’t think any EV is “safe” as far as the batteries go

Keep in mind that negative stories from China (anything that casts China itself or people/companies within China) are heavily and aggressively censored.
Downside is that it won’t work if my internet or power is out
If it doesn’t work when your internet is out, then it’s not local.
If you want yourself or your house to burn in a lítium battery fire, then sure, go for it.
Edit: I’m going to tag this post of mine and come back in a few years when all the stories about banning Chinese-made EVs come out because of safety issues. See you all in a couple years.
You’re introducing an argument as a way to undermine the viewpoint that’s opposite to yours.
No one said it’s fine “when we do it”. That’s not the point being discussed.
The other bigger issue here is that these new cars are coming from a region that has a horrendous track record for safety and quality. EVs when done right are still a considerable risk with battery fires, but the ones manufactured in China are much worse for quality and safety. In the next few years, as these cars flood markets around the world, it will be a massive issue.
A process called rapid recalcification has existed for almost a decade. I don’t understand why it hasn’t made its way into dentistry yet.
This isn’t a “random” YouTube channel.
Go vegan
I swear vegans are eventually going to out class religious people for pushing their own beliefs.
Sony is just as bad in their own ways.
Stable diffusion SXDL Turbo model running in Automatic1111 for image generation.
Ollama with Ollama-webui for an LLM. I like the Solar:7b model. It’s lightweight, fast, and gives really good results.
I have some beefy hardware that I run it on, but it’s not necessary to have.
It’s getting there. In the next few years as hardware gets better and models get more efficient we’ll be able to run these systems entirely locally.
I’m already doing it, but I have some higher end hardware.
But “AI” is the umbrella term for all of them. What you said is the equivalent of saying:
we really need to stop calling things “vehicles”. There’s cars, trucks, airplanes, submarines, and space shuttles and they’ve all been called vehicles, but functionally they have almost nothing to do with each other
All of the things you’ve mentioned are correctly referred to as AI, and since most people do not understand the nuances of neural networks vs hard coded algorithms (and anything in-between), AI is an acceptable term for something that demonstrates results that comes about from a computer “thinking” and making shaved intelligent decisions.
Btw, just about every image recognition system out there is a neural network itself or has a neural network in the processing chain.
