All private cars, regardless of the fuel source, are climate disasters.

Paper voting leaves a literal paper trail unlike electronic voting that's always a total black box in all countries that have tried it.

The answer is it would work much better because you wouldn't have the parked cars wasting space and making it difficult for the plows to clean the street quickly.

Only 2 years suspension is a slap on the wrist for what is essentially an attempt at stochastic murder. We need to stop treating driving licenses as a universal right and stop clearly unfit people from sitting behind the wheel.

Botnet node? 3GB sounds excessive even for a company that's notoriously invasive.

"I use Linux as my operating system," I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. "Actually", he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!' I don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "I use Alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU Coreutils, or any other GNU code. It's Linux, but it's not GNU+Linux."

The smile quickly drops from the man's face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!" Coolly, I reply "If windows were compiled with GCC, would that make it GNU?" I interrupt his response with "-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even if you were correct, you won't be for long."

With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I've womansplained him to death.

Considering the alpha wolf myth originates from observing a stressed out wolf population in captivity, unable to live out their fulfilling wolfy lives, the emergence of purported "alpha males" is an oddly appropriate indicator of what three decades of neoliberalism has done to our wellbeing.

Seems to me the institutional investors aren't interested at the price they're asking.

"Economic fatigue" nice newspeak for being piss-poor as a consequence of legislative failure to curtail wage theft over the past few decades.

Some "extreme left" proposals from the article:

  • Unpaid sick leave
  • Reductions in unemployment benefits
  • Restrictions on the right to strike

Looks like bog-standard conservative politics to me, why do you feel the need to defend them?

Unfortunately for the post scarcity information society, the capitalists are in fact moving on — to fascism.

Do people want big trucks or have they been manipulated through clever marketing to want big trucks because they're more profitable for the manufacturers (marketing included)?
