Desistance , to xkcd in xkcd #2948: Electric vs Gas
@Desistance@lemmy.world avatar

Read it closely. It's making fun of petrol heads who try to justify keeping gas engines. Electric power plants are way more efficient, generates more torque and horsepower in a smaller package.

Then scroll this thread and you see all the same people doing the same thing.

It’s an age old tradition. If your name looks foreign or ‘other’ they will make up any excuse not to see you.

Desistance , to Work Reform in Jim Cramer Says OEMs Should Move American Auto Manufacturing To Mexico For $5/hour In Response To UAW Demands

It’s important to note that Mexico and Canada have unions.

Musk and his team has been very successful at surpressing unionization. They quickly gets rid of those that try.

The Japanese and Korean makers try to keep people placated so that they don’t think about unionization. Or in Hyundai’s case, using child labor and getting caught. In the South, some people are too ignorant to understand what the benefits of unions are which is why it’s a popular destination for manufacturing jobs.

Volkswagen Auto Group has two separate unions, a minority UAW and a competing American Council of Employees specifically at the Chattanooga plant. The others are probably not unionized YET.

Unionization gets more popular as more conpanies try to extract more productivity without proper compensation.

Desistance OP , to Firefox in Firefox now has speed parity with Chrome on the Speedometer benchmark

Could be a readjustment in the metrics. They fix test and measurement errors from time to time and it often looks like a spike. They attach notes to the data points sometimes. Maybe clicking one of them during that time will shed some light.
