It’s true it’s not as accurate, but I think it can tell for more than 1, as long as it’s not in the wrong pattern.
Also if all 4 are going flat, there is either something seriously wrong or the user hasn’t checked tire pressure for a very long time, and you still need to do that.

I suppose that’s the thing that can measure the rotation with high enough accuracy, I didn’t even think of that.
So it’s based on a sensor that is already there! Very clever. 👍

What cost?

I’m arguing to convert to metric when posting on an international forum, because metric is the international standard.
But I’ll have you know that I often also post Imperial units when posting things that are in metric, because I know there are also a lot of Americans here. I’ve seen others do the same.
But Americans very rarely do that. Hence the claim about American arrogance.

Finally to make the car show bar instead of psi and use it for recommended tire pressure has no extra cost.

I must admit I’m a bit of an VW fanboy, I just bought an ID.4 and I am waiting for it be ready to drive home.
It is such a brilliant piece of engineering in so many ways, I am very impressed with what VW achieved with that car.
Goddam the driving of that car is excellent! 😀 😎

Seems to me it did the job, maybe not as accurate, but it’s a way simpler system and less error prone.

It’s not just different, it’s less intuitive, and it’s based on other obsolete units, and it is only used by a minority.
I bet if some other country had their own national standards of measurement plastered all over the net, that you would be pretty annoyed by that too.
But somehow USA doing this shit constantly is OK because AMERICA!!

Americans are fucking annoying with their constant special pleading, it’s OK to post psi or other imperial units, but for fucks sake post the metric units too that the majority is using.

The VW ID.4 uses actual/expected rotational speed to calculate pressure.
No sensor to ruin there.

This Imperial shit is getting ridiculous.
And the arrogance of expecting the rest of the world to understand it without converting to a more widely used standard is astounding.
PSI = pounds per square inch.

WTF Really? Anybody is using that? POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH!!! That’s what you are going with??
Instead of the much simpler and way more intuitive bar which is based on atmospheric pressure.

For anyone not using tribal Imperial 24 psi is 1.65 bar and 50 psi is 3.45 Bar.

Steam beams

Mildly infuriating typo, you probably meant steal steel beams.

I had a crisis too some years ago, when Windows 7 was the shit, I heard Windows 7 was very good (for Windows).
So I tried to dual boot Windows 7, goddam a load of crap!! I’ll never believe anyone claiming Windows is good again.
The structure of security is a bloody mess, providing worse security, while taking control away from the owner of the system.
And lack of package manager makes it ask for updates at the most inopportune moments. Just a tiny program like Adobe reader was super invasive, and was a major pain in the ass.

Windows is not in any way user friendly, it’s just what most people are used to.

And Dr. Mengele was the best personal doctor EVER!

Thanks for the chart. 👍
Tomato tomato.
I wrote profits, and from the chart you show, clearly above 50% of their revenue is from Windows and derived products.
Last I heard the profit margin for Windows and Office was around 90%, AFAIK by far the highest of the business. So I’m pretty sure that combined with Server products Search and the part of gaming that is on Windows, it will be very close to 80% of the profits.

Windows is only 12% of Microsoft’s revenue

That may be true, but a lot of their profits build on that Windows monopoly. I wouldn’t be surprised if about 80% of their profits depend on Windows.

This type of post used to be pretty popular in most Linux communities, laughing at how stupid Windows is, but apparently not anymore?

Go Bazzite, there has been a lot of talk about Bazzite lately, also on YouTube many have been reviewing it, like JayzTwoCents had a feature about it, which probably helped.
I haven’t tried it myself, but it’s great to see that it’s still possible to shake up the Linux community with a new approach.
Congratulations and best of wishes. 👍 🎈

But we’re pre-dating the common distro hopping discussions

No we aren’t, Linux fora were full of them even before Ubuntu more than 20 years ago. Debian, Suse, Fedora, Mandrake, Mepis, PCLinux.
Distro hopping was always a thing people debated.

The rest of that sentence is a bit confusing, who are we? And how am I supposed to read minds? And going back was kind of where we started, because you claimed it was a new thing for Debian. Debian was definitely recommended to general users, for many good reasons. Stability and huge repository among them, but also user friendly install procedure, and good package manager, that handled dependencies way better than Suse and Fedora.

Debian was never talked about as a serious contender in distro hopping

Back in 2005 when Ubuntu was all the rage, the first alternative to Ubuntu was almost always Debian. Only later when Mint became a thing, that was also an obvious alternative, because it was similarly focused on being easy to use.
