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…

"[...]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 a…

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 w…

Well that stinks

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..…

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…

Love it. More people scared of trusting large corporations will help everyone.

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 …

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 …

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.…

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 analysi…

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 …

Matrix or IRC if you hate yourself.

The update will come automatically as you can read here. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11 This is basically Windows 10 21H2. Just naming it differently because...…

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.

Comparably rapid growth of economy and political influence

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 5…

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 v…

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 c…

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 l…

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 …
