The brakes aren’t engaged? The light turns on before there’s pressure on the brake. They probably don’t even know their lights are on since they aren’t decelerating.

Well you should educate yourself on the rules of the method of travel no matter.

If you were to go up in the air and you didn’t educate yourself on what the lights mean, you’re going to ruin everyone else’s day in your incredibly dangerous ignorance.

You don’t take a paddle boat onto the water without understanding some basic principles of water navigation… why would roads in this specific cause be any different? We already do with most land methods, this one is gonna be hinge? Nah. Ignorance isn’t an excuse.

Brake light activates before the brakes engages, so they could just be resting their foot on the brake while coasting. Pretty normal defensive driving technique. People tend to do it in heavier traffic or when people are tailgating them. Gives a way faster brake response.

Yes, what do you think subsidiary means…?

These engineers clearly held executive roles, they just weren’t with the Volkswagen (germany) so they would have had to clarify their subsidiary. For journalism this was the correct wording. If they wanted to call them execs, it would have had to go into detail about Volkswagen (Us particular division and reasons)

If you’re talking about Fritolays, you don’t just go and say execs when talking about “lays” or “Doritos” subsidiaries, you would use “engineers” or whatever other work they held to simplify it.

It’s an unnecessary distinction for non mutually exclusive exclusive terms, to use “executives” would lead to more confusion and that would be shit journalism….

It’s an article about the German Volkswagen, why are you assuming it’s about the multinational subsidiary? You can be an engineer for Volkswagen, and their subsidiary, but that requires explaining if you want to call them that. Which is totally unnecessary since the article wasn’t about them.

Yes… the article is about the German company dude…… not the “Volkswagen group” and not “Volkswagen international” or whatever includes their multinational groups. To assume otherwise is just weird, they never mentioned anything but their German company.

Terms aren’t mutually exclusive… you don’t think those engineers held executive roles? They just weren’t executives of Volkswagen.

They would have had to say executives of Volkswagen (insert whatever specifics of the subsidiary), for it to be the correct term. Engineers is simpler and easier and is the proper way to express the situation.

Your “point” muddies the water and needs to bring on multiple additional pieces of information, which would also need to be described. Most people would know these engineers held executives roles, with some part farther down the “executive” chain.

You can be an engineer for Volkswagen, while also being the executive for Volkswagen US NW division, but it’s irrelevant to the article and requires more completely unnecessary information, so in the effort of good journalism and brevity….

Their subsidiary companies do, but VW is a German company, the “executives” are ALL gonna be there dude… and those US execs would be doing what THEIR oversea “executives” want them to, so there’s still people above those who may be overseas. So calling them “executives” would be wrong since there is people above them still.

The point is, your “note” doesn’t matter mate.

Would VW have many overseas “executives”?

How many species have a larger wing span than that? It’s not that many…

That would look out of place in the majority of the world. Condors aren’t exactly flying over every city mate…

wingspan of 1.96 meters.

Not exactly bird like like these other ones though…

Batteries weigh more than ports though.

I thought you couldn’t get in the lottery without an account for 12 months? I would assume they would know the geolocation of the account and only say the Japanese accounts in this.

No it wasn’t? You’re saying a program what has had features for decades shouldn’t have them… you’re just talking out of your ass.

Other programs fit that niche, this one doesn’t need to be neutered to make it like all the rest. Options exist, stop trying to make everything the fucking same?

Notepad has always been a word editor, and your only point was it’s not… which is just plain false.

What? I’m not defending windows, I’m defending a program with features you can change on and off to customize it to your preference, and it defaulting to what most users need.

If you can’t get a word program working, the fuck you think someone’s gonna do with Linux? Lmfao, you people are getting wild, and this shits getting old. You’re turning people away with this echo chamber bullshit.

The fact someone upvoted this fucking garbage is concerning as fuck about this community.

Go bloviate about Linux where people want it, you’re ruining discussions you troll.

They have a library you can edit, they’re meant for the masses, and you can obviously customize it to your exact preferences.

Rehaul? This stuff has been part of the program for decades…

A text editor should have basic functions, if you just want a text editor, do it in command prompt or a web link entry.

It’s never supposed to have been a plain text editor, where did you get this asinine idea from?

And that’s an issue, it prevents all productive discussion on a topic. You’re not going to get more users when it’s known echo chambers.

Should be treated as trolling when it’s used to derail topics, which is what it is.

Having QoL features that 95% of people need and use is considered “not working” now? A larger percentage of people would say a text program without a spellcheck or auto correct would be broken.

This Linux circle jerking on Lemmy has gotten beyond exhausting. Options exist for everyone’s preference, it’s not broken because it’s defaulted on and you’re too stupid/ignorant to change a setting.

Just turn the setting off…? Why does Linux need to be brought up?

I’m sorry, but riding a motorcycle is vastly different than driving one of these, even the posture from riding to sitting makes a huge difference in comfort, but also these things are claustrophobic as hell, most people don’t realize just HOW small these actually are.

Imagine riding your bike and being enclosed by glass by an inch everywhere, your comfort would drop massively.
