Honest mistake

Look, saying “I don’t work here” to avoid using self-checkout completely misses the point. Technology has always evolved by shifting little tasks onto the user in exchange for speed and convenience. It’s not about “working for free,” it’s just self-service - like when grocery stores first let people grab stuff off shelves instead of asking a clerk behind a counter. At the time, some people probably whined about it too, but now nobody thinks twice because it’s way faster and gives you more control. Same thing with ATMs - you used to have to stand in line and talk to a bank teller just to get cash, now you punch a few buttons yourself. Are you ‘working for the bank’ when you use an ATM? No, you’re just getting your money faster without the hassle. Self-checkout is the same idea: a tiny bit of effort, way more convenience. Complaining about it like it’s some moral stand is honestly missing the bigger picture.

Not sure about your lower-than-ideal scanning success rate machines, possibly a location issue. The machines i use work pretty much flawlessly and even if the process itself might be a little longer, the lines are usually nonexistent compared to a cashier.

I mean im no apologyst and i hate the guy as much as anybody, but its significantly faster than your average ice luxury car. I would never buy a tesla now, but i also am not a fan of skewing the facts to fit a narrative. The cars were shit in the beginning and are much better now. Pretty, well equipped and fast. But dont buy any of them, fuck tesla. And fuck elon especially.

But honestly, if talking generally not even about tesla, acceleration is really the only thing that you can even use. Cant really use top speed anywhere.

Edit: after looking at the stats i thibk youll find that teslas offer a very much satisfactory top speeds compared to “pedestrian cars”.

Model Y: 193-250km/h
Model X: 250-262km/h
Model 3: 233-261km/h
Model S: 250-322km/h

Compared to:

Bmw x5: 209-285km/h
Honda CR-V: 189-185km/h
Škoda Kodiaq: 198-231km/h
Audi A6: 209-250km/h
Volvo S60: 189-230km/h
Bmw 5 series: 209-250km/h
Porsche 911: 293-330km/h

So actually, thats not the case at all. But i want to mention again, that i hate Elon and everything he stands for. Do not buy a tesla. I just like facts.

"Eestis kinnitab kanda paremäärmuslik rühmitus. Selle alaealised liikmed viisid ohvri metsa ning filmisid tema piinamist ja alandamist"

Daamid ja härrad. Eestlased on oma ajaloos liiga palju kannatanud, et nüüd, vabas Eestis, lasta end taas petta vihkamise ja äärmuslike ideoloogiate poolt. Natsism ja kommunism on ühe mündi kaks külge – mõlemad hävitavad vabaduse ja väärikuse ning toovad kaasa ainult kannatusi. Me ei tohi unustada, kuidas totalitaarsed režiimid on meie rahva vabadust lämmatanud, meie kultuuri hävitanud ja meie inimesi tapnud. Eesti tulevik ei ole vihkamises, vaid hariduses, avatuses ja julguses jääda kindlaks demokraatlikele väärtustele. Kui me ei mäleta oma minevikku, siis me pole oma tulevikku ära teeninud.
