I’ve had people attempt to Rob me in my own home, had bricks thrown in my window for literally no reason and had attepted night burglaries. Basically, I live in a rough area and I’d genuinely be suprised if someone stole an electric car charger. I’ve left much more valuable things outside by accident without them being stolen.

Ask someone who lives closer and pay the extra it’s what I’d do

R u so paranoid that u think people are gonna steal it? I mean it might happen but I live in quite a rough place and I wouldnt even be worried abt that

Why can’t you run an extension cord out an open window? Do u not have windows or something

So do u believe its theft to turn your TV off everytime an ad comes on and turn it back on a few minutes later? I mean its a bit strange but I wouldnt go as far to call that theft

I’d wager Googles only releasing it to some users at first like they do with most things.

Tracks u just as much as chrome

I’d probably just ask someone on the ground floor to use theirs and cover the added cost of electric

Who said anything abt owning? U can charge a car with a plug socket it’s just slow but if its at your house that wouldn’t matter as much.

Lemmy grad isn’t the platform lemmy it was a single instance. The other person was tryna say that mastodon is a platform like lemmy so while yes there’ll be instances like lemmy grad because mastodon is the platform and not the instance your instance can “block” or defederate the other one.

Do u think most people in first world countries know these things?

I’m in the uk and it’s not uncommon to never end up texting people on WhatsApp but in my experience almost everyone I’ve met has it

Drugs are a personal vice which the person can do without ever harming another person. Murder is murder. I don’t think it should be legal for drug addicts to steal for their drugs, even tho some will whether or not its legal because that involves harming another person.

Do u not think that a factor of that is that people are still able to get cigs legally, even if they r expensive.

I did. My first cig was from the black market.

People will just smoke in bushes. Teens already do so they don’t get caught by their parents.

No, because I don’t believe a solution that captures every single black market cigarette is possible. The best solution is to heavily regulate the industry and spread accurate information about cigarettes and I’d also personally ban cigarettes in movies under a certain age rating unless essential to the character in some way such as they develop cancer later in the movie or something.

My first cigarette was bought from a black market dealer involved with the uda my countries main drug gang. Prohibition doesn’t work

Yea and the black market is one of the main reason things are harmful. 1 they r unregulated so your getting God knows what 2 they’re most likely connected to gangs or your countries version of them so ur prolly funding then and 3 it creates a stigma around the drug causing addicts to be less likely to seek out help

I got my first cigarette from a black market dealer. Cig prohibition will go the exact same way.
