I would assume that if you go out of your way to have a company and buy a massive pickup that is more expensive than a Van and less usable you probably do not give a shit. The fact that they can basically ignore BPM on company cars is absol

"[...]you can mock them[...]" is already something that i do not agree with. This could very easily be seen as an insult and in court you would get fucked over. But then again, I am not american. It is illegal to show the middle f

Most first world countries do not really have freedom of speech. While the headlines are quite excessive from UK and Australia (for obvious reasons), there are a lot of countries where the simple existence of those laws are never talked abo

While I agree, all of them required specific amounts of players to play, sometimes you keep friends out, sometimes you had randos who had no idea what they were doing. And really... there were way too few of them. The playtime is not that

I really hope for a COOP story. GTA V looked like the perfect game for it but that never happened. I really enjoy COOP games with friends because of the general increased hostility in Multiplayer games (or at least I feel like it) and the

I have a catchall. Sending mails is a bit annoying... I like not having to send a mail because I can easily avoid spam if someone misuses or sells my information because GDPR only hits small people and not the corps that deserve it. While

I wouldn’t want to try to do that either. With the political climate in Europe it would be stupid to invest sums into making ICE more efficient or less harmful. Could very well be that in 3-4 years it will be impossible to sell an ICE car b

Well, even if you ignore that Firefox is inferior compared to Chromium, Mozilla is not a respectable company anymore in my opinion. So i see 0 reasons to use Firefox. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/we-need-mor

Still all the other points. And i am REALLY not sure if switching from a company that is known to try to not give data to governments to facebook, which makes it's money by analysing and selling data would make a lot of sense.

IRC for me is a way to seek support for OSS projects and nothing else. It is not really designed to be a IM for phones...

No drawbacks? Whatsapp requires your phone to be on and have Whatsapp running in the background if you want to use it over Whatsapp Web. Also the amount of Messages and Media that Telegram delivers to me would not fit on my Phone. Also let&

If you want a dumb car, buy used. Very old cars are dumb. And if you get the correct car you can fix it at home for cheap and barely have worse fuel economy than todays cars.

You are always controlled and manipulated by idiots. The question is: how much can you do about that without doing something unlawful?

YES YES YES. Policies and laws should be more local to adhere to the local situations in local areas. A politician in Berlin cannot understand the situation in a random town with 500 inhabitants and therefore should rarely have something to

The main alternative is noticing what went wrong over the last 70 or so years in the west and fixing that. You cannot escape the madness because globalisation made most countries very similiar. Growing the governments further and further di

Overregulation and bureaucracy are the downfall of the west. The sooner we realise that, the sooner we can fix it.

A few months ago i had an accident in a "90s Volvo". A Volvo 850 to be exact. A Toyota Aygo got into my lane on a country road. A car that is 15 years newer in design and is also considerably lighter than the Volvo. It was basical

My issue is that even today "autonomous" vehicles are far from capable of doing what they are supposed to do. The technology is decades old and barely anything happens. And no, i like driving. I would hate a future where driving w

Do you work with software? Because you don't seem to be scared one bit. I don't see this becoming a thing anytime soon. Not just because of how horrible software is and how little it improves. In the last 20 years we barely had a

You can pick old cars which are easy to fix and barely have any software. Old Volvos come to mind. They are also very safe, not just for their age. If safety is a primary concern you might consider something ridiculously massive like an F35

I have replaced the thermal paste on a 2016 MBP before and that was far from trivial. It took close to 2 hours and everything felt very stuck. It was overall a bad experience. Even though Thinkpads like the old xx20 and xx30 series require

I want to see it more often. Go ahead, build cities where every motorized vehicle is illegal. I am all for it. If it is so superior, then people will move to it.

The only evidence i have is many cities around where i live tried to make driving to the city centers horrible, made parking expensive and not a long time afterwards the shops were almost regularly switching owners and contents. There are a
