    Cool but they sound like shit. No aesthetics in evs. You don’t feel connected to the car. Don’t feel the engagement. But hey, cars are all about stats, right, right??

    Edit: ok so I get downvoted for having a differing opinion from the majority of Lemmy users here. I’m wrong in saying that EV engines sound like shit?PLEASE one downvoter, explain to me how such a statement deserves a downvote?

    Majority of you probably just use your car as a means of transportation. I don’t. I also drive to have fun. That’s also why I never drive automatic as it is (to me) more engaging and challenging with a manual gear box. Let me give you another example: weight. EVs are heavy, always. I don’t like heavily cars because I don’t find them enjoyable to drive on small roads.

    Please understand that there is more to the world of cars than numbers.


  • Why on earth do you get down votes? This is the truth. Downvoters just straw man argue pointing out that ‘just charge your car at home’, which isn’t the matter of discussion. There isn’t even a discussion to be had - it is faster to refuel a car than recharge. Might this matter to you? Maybe, maybe not.



  • Thanks for your detailed reply.

    1. The solution for setting the clock seem to work! Awesome.

    2. I don’t have kWallet enabled but saving the password as unencrypted in the network settings.

    3. Hmm, I just installed akmod-nvidia.x86_64 with dnf. Tried to run nvidia-settings in terminal. I get this error:

    ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
    
    (nvidia-settings:14910): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 14:10:49.551: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    
    ** (nvidia-settings:14910): CRITICAL **: 14:10:49.552: ctk_powermode_new: assertion '(ctrl_target != NULL) && (ctrl_target->h != NULL)' failed
    
        1. I guess I need to hop distro again! :( But it will probably be faster than fixing
