YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.



Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.



Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated.

Who is buying the Teslas that people are supposed to sell?

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 day ago (1 children)

People who don't mind being lumped in with Nazis. Teslas might be sold by owners at a loss, but besides the CyberStuck the other models sell used.

For example where I live in Canada the district has never voted anything but conservative for decades. Nobody is harassing Tesla owners here, different story if they drive 25 kilometers down the highway into the city.

I’ve kind of debated buying one just because it possibly can be a great deal on an electric car. Slap a few “I hate Elon” magnets on there and hopefully no one torches it lol.

They lose 1/2 value in 2 years. Used models 3s go for 15-25k with around 30k miles on them.

Dont buy new, buy used at least.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah I meant used. Cause people are offloading them for peanuts.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 0 points 7 hours ago

Also the bodies are aluminum (except the cybercuck) so your gonna want to invest in stickers or vinyl wrap, rather than magnets.

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

If you can avoid 1st party Tesla service centers (not user friendly or pro right to repair like an Apple product and attitude) and deal with the "I'm not a nazi, just frugal" stickers, it could be worth any perceived risk.

I get the other view, that it's quite wasteful to just destroy them. Not that it would've happened anyways. That wouldn't be realistic, just progressive fantasies.

I want the drivetrain and batteries form them to convert classic cars and make home battery walls.

That’s great, the customer service image got a good chuckle too.

[–] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

People who don't care about it and just want a good price, probably.

Still, a sale that does not go towards the Billionaire.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago

They also need jail breaks to allow all features and stop paying subscriptions to the ratfuck

[–] ALilOff@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

True Nazis and EVs don’t really pair together

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No one. Which is why we shouldn't bother existing Tesla owners.

But they should still put their cars up for sale. Flood the market.
