AFAIK it’s actually not illegal, it is allowed to have a paid tracking free alternative instead of a free tracking free alternative.

It’s the same in Germany, I’ve been in a sign making factory and they will make signs for everyone who pays. The illegal part is not owning them, the only illegal part would be putting them up on public streets without authorization. You are definetly allowed to use these signs on your own private ground, on a private parking lot for example.

Yes, this is how it is in Germany too and in my experience travelling it is like that in a lot of Europe.

Unmanned stations are a relatively recent thing here, so the first time I wanted to fill up at one I thought the pump was broken before I realised I have to pay first lol.

I would really hope we will start replacing them with 18650s and the like soon. Rechargeable NiMh batteries just suck in comparison to Li-Ion batteries

Yeah, I would be happier to have autonomous cars on the freeway than on other roads. There are usually no pedestrians on freeways that can be overlooked.

But I’m even happier that there are no autonomous cars driving by itself where I live right now.

Maybe he has had all individuality removed and now he cannot understand why anyone would have it.

I just wait until I am at work, it’s much simpler because the coffee at work is free and I just have to press a button and wait for the cup to be full.

I already had my car when I moved to this city and now I feel attached to it, so I don’t want to get rid of it. If I didn’t already have it I wouldn’t buy a new one now though.

It is pretty useful at times though, even if I do most things with my bike, my car has a big cargo area so I can easily transport a fridge, dishwasher, etc.

I bought a 144hz 4K 32" monitor a few years ago, it wasn’t cheap (800€) but I don’t regret buying it, everything just looks better on it than it ever did on the previous monitor.

A dining table is good for when family comes over and you want to eat something together. Now I also use it to eat something with my wife, but before I rarely used it. It helped that it was a hand me down from my mother though, so I didn’t have to pay anything.

Not necessarily, if the LCD has local dimming depending on the dimming zone size it could be more energy efficient in dark mode.

Hermes just leaves everything in front of the door after ringing once.

Sometimes I only find out that something only gets delivered to the US when I get to the checkout stage where you enter the adress and there is no option for countries.

It’s not that hard to put this information on your website.

I bought operation cases for around 100€ 5 years ago, it’s now worth 1000€

I don’t know if this is real or photoshopped but this is in the Netherlands.

They haven’t always been such a cycling paradise, so it is possible that infrastructure like this existed there in the past.

It’s actually worse than that.

He does know some stuff about technology and his team knows the stuff that he maybe doesn’t know.

But in the fight with GamersNexus Linus basically admitted that they don’t have time to properly fact check stuff because they would make less money if they released less videos.

I agree, but sadly I have seen posts claiming that all men are monsters and lots of people agreeing online, and not just once or twice.

Exactly, also this “all men are bad and monsters” has to stop. This is not how you get the good men to help you stop and punish the bad men.

But yeah, fuck the patriarchy, women should have just as many rights and freedoms as men do, in theory and in practice.

This is a good idea in general, however this doesn’t help when it comes to getting the first interest, because how can you tell if someone is really genuine about caring from a few words on a profile?

But yeah, my girlfriend wanted to start dating me not because I am the most attractive person, but because I am always nice to her and to people in general. To me it seems crazy to not be, but I guess not everyone is like that.

The closest grocery store/supermarket is around 1km away from my house and a few others are just slightly further away. I could walk there, but I have better ways to use my time, so I just go with my bike.

The pannier bags also enable me to buy heavy stuff without having to lift it the whole way.
