I got a 2023 Bolt EUV a few months ago and I love it. (I wanted the EV but I couldn't find any.)
I'm curious if disabling the OnStar stuff is as "simple" as it is in the 2019 models.

"Instead of working on that project that you were enjoying working on in your spare time, why not do this completely different other thing?"
That's not reasonable.
Exactly, you never intended to commission an artist because you think so-called “AI art” is good enough to replace them.
Weird argument to make on a piracy sub, honestly. The existence of an AI generated image does not imply that a somewhere an artist lost a commission. Nobody was replaced. It's not a choice between AI art and commissioned art, it's a choice between AI generated images and nothing at all because that was the point of his project.
Whether we find it tasteful or interesting is another topic.
Agreed, and I don't intend to stop at the moment. When I wrote "close it" I meant registration, sorry about the ambiguous language.
I'm aware of the risk, but so far the captcha seems to have prevented any mass sign-up, and none of the few other existing accounts so far have any activity. That said, since I have no intention to support a user base anymore, I probably should close it anyway.
I run my own instance that technically does have open registration, but I can't really recommend anyone actually sign up to use it. It's not running on very powerful hardware, and my commitment to keeping it running 24/7 is "as long as it stays convenient and interesting." There are probably many, many of those. But there are a good collection of second and third tier instances now as well, I'm not to worried about .world's popularity so long as they don't do something like switch to a federation allow-list rather than a block list.
Personally, I think it's okay for things to disappear sometimes. Nothing is permanent. I have no anxiety about this.
Ah, you've got them now!

In the US I didn't see that popup either, just that notice on the page from my other comment.
At least they seem to be working on it. Directing Firefox users to use a different browser in the mean time, temporarily, seems reasonable even if the language on that popup is a bit imprecise.
I did try adding a shirt to the cart and yeah, it added the wrong size. I'd have to switch to chrome to successfully complete an order at the moment. It's unfortunate, but as long as they're trying to fix it I don't see any point in feeling outraged.
My hope/expectation is that for lemmy (and the wider "threadiverse," e.g. kbin) the best days are still to come.
