For me it is. Where I live there are multiple EV car-sharing services so I got to try them all: between the i3, the leaf and the renault zoe the i3 is by far the nicest to drive and most fun to be in, in my experience. Zoe is also nicer tha

No limits on the amount of devices, though IIRC after using 10 different keys (for each version) you have to ask for a refresh. To be honest I'm also unsure on the details of how you can use the OSs you get from the MSDN license. edit:

What's the alternative? Old MacOS versions also don't support newer hardware, old Linux kernels neither. By your reasoning, no operating system should ever be considered for anything designed to outlast a 7 year period (which is w

I understand and it makes sense that saying "I saw a black person walking around" is effectively useless and likely racist. The problem I see here is that it's only applied to race. If the same person made the same report and
