    This thread is literally the difference between someone who knows what they talk about getting downvoted because people don’t like facts and someone who doesn’t know they talk about getting upvoted because they appeal better to emotions.

    Social media has ruined us.

      “What could the overwhelmingly technically skilled audience of Lemmy possibly know about electronics repair and embedded programming?”

      Huh I wonder where the downvotes are coming.

      So much of Lemmy is this way, and I guess most of social media. I expected more from the Lemmy crowd.

      Yeah, Lemmy is usually pretty tech savvy, so this is kind of surprising.

      It’s “some basic evidence and appeals to do some research to change your view” versus “I don’t think so and car manufacturers are just bad” with no real counter argument

        Or you’re just wrong and crying loudly about it? I don’t even know wtf the original point is you were trying to make before this pity party started. “You don’t seem like you are a car enthusiast, so go on any car forum or facebook group and ask about some fake wheels or eBay special turbos.” You’re a fucking joke. Lots of wasted time explaining nothing at all for scary car scenarios. I don’t even want to post this reply but your comments are fucking stupid and misleading. and you end it with a fucking “planned attack” scenario by terrorists or nation states? JFC just make a sane statement and run with it, don’t rant on about nothing then get confused when you’re downvoted.
