because macos fanboys are rich hipsters and spend large amounts of money on software and accessories for their already expensive computers. Linux users usually aren’t very alike, the first 4,5 % isn’t anyhow.

And for the unlikely situation that vito wouldn’t do, there’s still stuff like the Mercedes sprinter.
I don’t think ikea even sells furniture that requires such gigantic vehicles in the first place.
That said, furniture is an excellent example of why you could just drive a normal vehicle, a bicycle or a bus to go windowshopping and later have the new furniture delivered to your doorstep by a specialised company and/or vehicle or rent a specialised vehicle for the odd occasion. The cost for society will actually be a damn lot lower.
Dutch has the same word: angst. In my experience it’s not as “heavy” as Angst in German, but rather interchangeable with “schrik hebben” or “bang zijn”. Though “angstig zijn” might be more of longer duration, like a character trait of a person.
but they might be worth a lot in 30 years if you take good care of them!
30 mins of a German professor who all his life studied doing dishes and how dishwashers work. (in juicy German accent English).
The answer is soaking.
I dislike the fact even more then the idea.
Called a bank recently.
They: "please say in a word the subject your call is about so we can immediately connect you to the right department "
Me: “LOAN”
They: you said “limits on your cards”, 1 for yes 2 for no
I tried 3 times, gave up. They won, I guess.
I think the Chinese population is very much “under control” already with their state-capitalist system.
Been using searx a bit recently and it often is the 1 thing I’m looking for as the top result.
It is. I use it as such regularly. Keyboard+mouse+screen = browsing firefox as usual. Works quite well. Libreoffice, okular, signal desktop… I’ve used worse computers in recent years, steamdeck desktop experience is better than many 4 to 5 year old cheap laptops with win10 or win11.
Mandatory weekly attendance for every week you wanna continue to drive around that thing in a city.
Terra Nil was way to straight forward for my taste, super clear path what you should do and no way to deviate. It felt like a glorified educational powerpoint. I pictured the idea more as a mixture of OTTD (for trains & trainmanagement), cities & skylines (lots of variety in what could be built and how urbanism evolves and develops when needs are met), SimCity3000 (sudden disaster mode) and this game for real implications of chosing car mobillity that are often ignored in games. And the look&feel also being like this game (which is very much resembling OTTD). Now if only I would have the progamming skills to build it 😅
Kudos to the developer, it does look very nice and I like the retro feel. I’ld give it a go.
That said: I would much rather see a city development game where you start off with existing shitty cities full of car dependency and people complaining about everything (including lack of parking spots ;) but also noise and traffic congestion and loud neighbours etc), and the goal would be to try to make it into nice walkable cities while still getting everyone where they need to be (to jobs, to leisure, shops etc), making it more climate proof and creating more living space for growing population. Converting a Houston style existing city to an Amsterdam/Netherlands style city basically. That would be original… All city builders ignore parking (that’s being adressed here I guess), but they all usually also ignore the fact that you start off with existing city and you can’t just bulldoze entire neighbourhoods for prestigeprojects or trainlines/highways.
There’s one good use case for me: produce a bigload of trialcontent in no time for load testing new stuff. “Make 2000 yada yada with column x and z …”. Keeps testing fun and varied while lots of testdata and that it’s all nonsense doesn’t matter.
I’ve found that testing code or formulas with LLM is a 50/50 now. Very often replying “use function blabla() and such snd so” very detailed instructions while this suggested function just doesn’t exist at all in certain language asked for… it’s still something I’ld try if I’m very stuck tho, never know.
Yeah i would call anything actually working in GIS beyond reading what’s there or adding dots or lines to it an IT job.
After some decades they just become so incredibly gross no one without a hazmat suit would try cleaning it again, so they’re replaced.
It’s an urban car. Most city streets have a 30 km/h limit anyway. Some are 20 km/h (‘living street’). A lot of the more main roady streets in urban environment are 50 km/h, still fine with this. Then the bigger connecting roads might be 70km/h, that would depend on every case for me. Highways are obviously not allowed.
In many streets where the limit is 30-50 km/h, the actual traffic flow is only 10-15 km/h anyway because of congestion. I always feel a cringe seeing people in 600 horsepower vehicles inching by towards the next crossroads, or even worse seeing them wait it out for a minute so they can blast full engine for the solid 200meter and make sure everyone heard them; while I cycle past them at a steady 23 km/h with my 1/4 horsepower legs.
The Mini EV can seat four people, and standard features including air conditioning, power windows, stereo system, storage and compartments. Standard safety features of the Mini EV include anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring sensors, and rear parking sensors. Early models did not include a driver airbag, but later models such as the Mini EV Macaron include the feature as standard.
That’s pretty crazy!
In many places it’s not like you can choose between 10 bike shops. There’s 1 or 2 within walk/bike reach.
My bike cost just 600 € 5 years ago FYI. I didn’t buy a decathlon one because of the bike shops refusing them. Appearantly that’s not a reason to not buy decathlon anymore, but it for sure was before.
