Yeah, because Italians totally have no idea how to build a car.
Edit: a gentle reminder that e.g. Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Pagani, Ducati, Dallara and DeTomaso come from exactly the same area as Parmigiano, Bolognese sauce, Parma ham, lasagne, and Bologna sausage.
Italy does not, indeed, have too much to offer with respect to computers and the internet.
Somehow that still makes sense.
VS Code is mostly open source though, with an independent build being circulated under the name "VS Codium". Some proprietary Microsoft extensions will however refuse to run on it out of spite though.
The proprietary version of Inkscape would be Adobe Illustrator, I guess.
Never used it though.
You can definitely mount a windows share on a linux machine. I was doing it at my last job, because it allows you to do anything on it transparently as if its part of the local filesystem.
Here instructions from the Ubuntu wiki, most things should carry over to most other distros.
No car is fun in those instances. But that is how we spend the majority of our time on the road.
Hence, "fun driving is over".
There are still fun cars. It's getting incredibily difficult to have fun driving them.
I have not.
Do they somehow make it fun to be queueing at a busy intersection?
Is driving 70km/h behind a truck somehow a blast if you're in a Tesla?
If so I'll make it a priority to try one out ASAP!
Honestly, I lived in Antwerp for a while... I think the transmission is the least of their problems.
Agree that fun driving is essentially over, but I don't think automatic cars are as common outside North America.
In Europe ~80% of cars have manual transmission, mainly due to the (in the past) better fuel efficiency.
Modern automatic cars have often slightly better fuel efficiency, but they cost quite a bit more to buy and maintain, and very nearly everyone knows how to drive stick, so people usually don't bother.
Edit: As we stop having fun driving cars, should we finally also say goodbye to race biking, and fun motorcycling, once and for all?
Oh, I can confirm I have met a person in Belgium who could only drive automatic.
Sorry Jared, I got confused there for a moment.
