His talking points aren’t even really interesting. AI is overhyped, companies don’t like to lose IP and data to AI companies, etc.

For me it’s also a price issue, after my streaming more expensive year on year at some point I just stopped and paid for VPN and Usenet.

Unfortunately my local gas station (Netherlands) also puts ads on the pumps. Glad I never have to go there anymore (recently switched to an EV)

When I was in the US it was just confusing sometimes. Like I went to this restaurant to order a pizza, to-go. They had a sign outside and the pizza was like 18 dollars, but when you want to pay its more because of tax, and now they also expected a tip. Ok but it’s to go right? So you also tip when getting groceries? The entire system just felt very arbitrary.

Yeah not every Iranian that is against the current régime wants the Shah back, they also don’t have a great track record.

I think what will hurt them much more is the EU realizing the danger in dependence on American tech like Microsoft, and slowly replacing it with (open source) alternatives.

This meme is just so annoying and dumb. I’m not from the US so yeah the Democrats would be considered right in most EU countries. But saying its either that or anarchy and Communism, is just dumb. Just like the political right, the political left is a spectrum. Where I live we don’t have a 2 party system. There is a big difference between a centre right and far right party, same for the parties on the left.

This isn’t really new, when I was young a lot of kids wanted to be a pro footballer or singer.

Yes just like radical Christians, radical Muslims don’t like anything gay, female etc. There is a reason in some Middle Eastern countries women can’t go outside without a man “protecting” them.

Yeah what I mean is for me it doesn’t really matter, I am not going to break a bottle, and even if I accidentally did (not really sure how at the beach in soft sand) I would clean up the glass pieces. Broken bottles at the beach are left by assholes, not by accident.

For me it doesn’t really matter, glass or cans, just take whatever you brought back home or to a trash/recycle can

Nothing burger

My wife told me our son is hypermobile like her because he can sit like this https://andersonvillept.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/711ce16c-8c00-4abc-a7c5-3947d70fb2e5.jpg

That was when I found out it isn’t normal and I’m als hypermobile

I can also do this (I though everyone could) https://my.clevelandclinic.org/-/scassets/Images/org/health/articles/23118-hitchhikers-thumb

You’re bi and that’s totaly okay! I also like my car and enjoy decent public transportation and walkable cities.

I don’t know about your city, but getting towed away can cost you between 150 and 500 (diffent in every city) plus the fine (parking on a tram lane) 120 plus about 25 for every night your car is not picked up. So people avoid that.

When I just got my drivers license I came home one night and found a free parking spot, felt like the last one. When I needed my car about a week later it was gone. Went to the police to report it as stolen, turned out it was towed. I accidentally parked on a reseved spot that you are not allowed to park in. Pretty dumb but it was an honest mistake. The fine was about twice what I earned a month from my partime job as a student. It really sucked, but it was a good lesson.

Sperm blaster, its all natural, full of micronutrients and makes you cum like a whale (the reason seawater is salty).

We got the second kid when the first one was almost 4. It was pretty rough, we where just getting back our sleep, and went in 2+ years of irregular sleep. She is 2 and a half now and thankfully sleep is getting much better.

If you have a kid and thinking about a second one, I would recommend don’t wait 3+ years, or wait 5+ years so you have a bit of time to recover.

This is art I can get behind.

What kind of BS is that?

“Ecofascism is “environmentalism through genocide”, opined Klein. Political researcher Alex Amend defined ecofascist belief as “The devaluing of human life—particularly of populations seen as inferior—in order to protect the environment viewed as essential to White identity.””

Basically all the right wing nut bags that are popular now deny climate change. Trump even has his famous drill baby drill bit

They never had LIDAR, only a few companies do (like Waymo). Teslas used to have RADAR but even that was removed.
