That’s pretty much how it works.

AP is supposed to be interactive but I’m pretty sure none of them are looking at those. And the ones that are already have accounts so these are just redundant anyway.

Actually, that’s exactly what free speech is for. Nobody needs free speech to tell their neighbor their hair looks nice today.

Ulrich@feddit.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•$440 Charge For A Wheel Scuff Raises Questions About Hertz's AI Rental Car Damage ScannerEnglish12·1 day agoNormal wear and tear isn’t the renter’s problem in any way, shape, or form
Which is why I said it’s a warranty issue.
and that includes dings and scratches on the paint, wheels, glass, and interior, simply from everyday use and being exposed to the elements.
We’re going around in circles here: dings and scratches are not caused by normal use.
already pay over $500
rental companies, like every other company, are charging more and more for less and less
The price of the rental and the responsibility of the renter are different problems. If you think you can do it for cheaper, give it a shot. You can list your car on Turo and make a fortune undercutting these terrible companies.
I’ve never even had a car payment that high.
There’s a myriad of expenses in rental that are not incurred by simply owning a personal vehicle (you’ve already listed a bunch of them), and a profit margin on top, so that makes a ton of sense.
What exactly are they doing with that money if the customers are the ones being charged for issues that aren’t even getting fixed?
What makes you think they’re not being fixed? Even if they’re not, those issues decrease the resale value of the vehicle.

You’re the one responsible for anything that should happens to the vehicle while it’s in your possession, even if it’s not entirely or even partly your fault.

Brother, you’re the one making claims without any proof.
Coincidence is no proof of causation.
Oh so you’re actually naive enough to believe this is coincidence? I was joking earlier but you really believe it LOL.

There’s nothing selfish here. Keeping the jack benefits everyone except Apple and other BT headphone OEMs. It doesn’t hurt anyone else.
has no advantages over a dongle
The advantage is that you don’t need a dongle…
and it inconveniences easily be overcome by simply adding a second usb-c port
Still requires carrying a dongle or buying a pair of headphones that only works with phones and computers, and not the vast array of other devices that still use headphone jacks, new and old. So that solves absolutely nothing. As I said elsewhere, we’ve created a competing standard, for no reason.
you’d be able to do far more than you’ll ever be able to do with a 3.5mm jack
What? Do you think we’re suggesting removing the USB port? What are you talking about?
And it would take you 5min searching the web to get good review about usbc DAC with actually good sound, even better than any internal DAC.
I don’t want to search the web. I don’t want a DAC. I just want to plug in my headphones. This is absurd.
It cost a whopping… $10.
$10 to buy something that previously cost me $0. Only it’s inevitably going to get lost so you’d better buy a half dozen of them and replace them every few years, so you’re looking at dozens of $ per year for something that was previously completely unnecessary.
As for the precise number…I’m not in that field, I do not have access to them
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
But Fairphone does
Where? If you know they have it, then you must have it as well?
and if they don’t bother adding that port back, they are most probably basing their decision on them.
No, they’re basing that decision on the same thing everyone else is: money. Greed. Much like Apple they also released their own bluetooth headphones at the same time as they removed their headphone jack. But I suppose that’s just coincidence, right?
