Then *** don’t buy the subscription ***
It is very easy. the design is very human.

It’s a basic convenience/status in exchange for money.
You wanna control your house from your phone? Sure, pay me for the effort of keeping all that shit secure.
I like convenience, that’s why i eat out 6 days a week.

Oh you were seriously asking? It allows me to unlock the car from my couch when my wife wants to get something out the car real quick. Or i don’t wanna carry my keys around.
I can also start the A/C 30 minutes before i leave so i dont have to freeze to death in winter.

Because the question was answered in my original question. You don’t. That’s why it’s an additional subscription feature.
My question was why the guy claimed it was a basic feature when it never was.
And then you came along and asked “well hurr durr why do i need to unlock my car from my phone”
You don’t. So you don’t need the subscription. Done.

will refer to my already posted answer to that comment

LMAO you want to switch your Battery yourself? And pay for it directly? And if something goes wrong pay even more? Firgure out what shop has fair prices and doesnt fuck you over?
No thanks, i’d rather have all my services included in my lease.

Nice strawman.
Dont get the subscription if youre fine with a fob.

No the cost of the Servers and the maintenance and the work required to have all that kept online and secure is.
Do you think admins and security guys work for free?

You want to selfhost your own server that communicates with your car so you can ulock your car from your phone? Are you dumb? Do you want to lose your car in a week?
Delusional.

I don’t understand buying a car unless it is a shitbox for the track and putting a rollcage in.

Yeah but i don’t have to worry about that because anything but negligence is of no interest to me and included in the lease.

It doesn’t have to be the car i drive. Cars have enormous loss of value. I’d rather have a new car every 3 of 5 Years and pay rent on it, than to have a car that i pay the same amount of money but i can trash it 10 years later or spend as much as a new car to keep it pristine.

How is that related to unlocking your car from your phone?

Should we finally buy an

Who is we?
Why are you buying a car in the first place?
get as many of the negatives of car ownership away from you.
I lease my Taycan. I do not want to pay for tyres or checkups. I do not want to pay in case the engine blows (not that it can, it’s electric but you get the gist).

How is unlocking your car over the internet a basic feature?

I disagree with tankies, social justice warriors and nazis. I would only defederate the latter.
Tankies get banned when they inevitably excuse a holocaust and social justice warriors can only cry on the internet all day about why nobody gives them free shit just for existing and how people who have more than them are monsters.

There, i opened the can of worms.
Fuck Nazis, but the biggest Problem lemmy has is the first 2.
Lemmy has no good content that isn’t “having money is genocide” and “haha this guy doesnt use Linux”
It won’t do well but ill stand on the side and watch them.

To a degree. I think lemmy wont grow because only socially inept nerd losers frequent this site.

No it doesn’t.

How much data are we talking about? I get confused. Is it 1.5TB or is it 2.5TB?
Then, how backed up do you want to be? Think about if you REALLY need daily backups. While Raid might be cool and flashy; if you don’t need it you don’t need it and running it only creates cost.

If you have about 2 TB of data then i would just buy 3 external HDD of 2TB size and replace them every 5 Years. Then rotate them around every time you do a backup. Can you automate your backups? Not to the point of you not having to do anything. Unless you choose to pay for 2 cloud storage providers and both offer you to save your backups in an unchangeable state.

I’m sorry. My bias screwed with the tone that i read your question in. I am just way too confrontative.
