I need to survive for 3 days while pooping as much as possible. I can pee as often as I like. It can take up loads of space. What food do I pack? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Shit posting, nice.

I live in Texas, the answer is no.

You can now buy a Hyundai IONIQ 6 for less than a Tesla Model 3 in c/electric_vehicles@lemmy.ml
[–] williamallenbro 1 points 2 years ago

I haven't driven an Ionic 6, so let me start there.

My wife and I both drive non-Tesla EVs at the moment, but we rented a Model 3 for a road trip. We both want one now.

It's the software and charging network. It's so far beyond what we're driving now.

It's also a very nice driving experience. So that helps, but the software and charging networks for other EVs has a long way to go.

If they really make this, my oldest son will be so pumped! (As long as it comes to the US...)

So why do you have a Pixel? in c/googlepixel@lemmy.ml
[–] williamallenbro 1 points 2 years ago

My number one reason is the camera. My second reason is just a general feel. Sure, I could make a Samsung look like a Pixel, but it's just not the same. I've tried other phones and just keep coming back to Pixel.

What does North America moving to NACS mean to you? in c/electric_vehicles@lemmy.ml
[–] williamallenbro 2 points 2 years ago

I would suggest that auto makers provide adapters to owners of vehicles still using CCS. They won't, but it would be nice.

To have a reliable standard would mean crossing the next big hurdle for mass adoption. Charging is a mess right now and that steers people away. I say bring it on!

August Burns Red has been consistently good for years. Composure still slaps so hard!

A friend recommended this to me years ago and it has stuck with me. I don't recommend it often, but when I do, I recommend it strongly. Is anyone else here a fan?

I wish I had a tiny dog to post! Mine is disappointingly normal in size.

Are memes ok? in c/citylife

The other thing that doesn't help is the state has it out for urban centers and actively works to destroy them. People from Houston drove to Austin to project the project linked below. As soon as the last persons was done speaking, the state approved the project. Houston did not want this expansion.

This is a great analogy. There are parts of my city I love visiting, but I'm glad to get back to my neighborhood at the end of the day.

Why do you personally prefer using an Android phone? in c/android@lemmy.world
[–] williamallenbro 3 points 2 years ago

I didn't see anyone mention photos. Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I don't like the processing on iPhone pictures. They all look a bit soft.

They may win in video, I don't care about that enough for it to matter. Android cameras get way better development, partnerships, and processing, IMO.

Every time I show an iphone user that I can put my apps at the bottom, it blows their mind.

We adopted him weighing 24 lbs. Working on getting him trimmed down a bit, but he's a handsome meatball right now!

I absolutely love how many elements this song blends together. Electronic chorus, metal-core verse, power ballad bridge, thrash metal, then just a brutal ending. Chef's kiss on this one.

What is your favorite metal song that you just can't share with your non-metal friends?
