Some off the Queen songs are quite catchy and instantly appeal to a large public. They're more of an iconic band. The name of the band is also quite good for their identity. Californication is a radio tune. There's more to RHCP

This sounds a bit like Lenin. We know it doesn't work because in the power void created a worse opressor will flourish. How about I take my business to Ireland if you ban encryption or avoid taxes that fund your paycheck, as an individ

Poland has a fresh memory on communism and censorship. Sadly the alternative to your current PM is PiS, who banned abortion, so basically christian conservatives with some fascist ideas, not very different than the ones currently running th

It switches automatically from low beam to high beam. Very useful as I don't have to continously fiddle with the switch. The auto lights and daylight running lights are standard on all new cars. I love it. I never forget to turn on the

Not only Toyotas, all new cars sold in the EU need to have an interface for alcohol testers. They already have beepers and other detterents for exceeding speed limits since june 2025. https://www.ietl.net/news-details/n

Yes, it does beep a lot but you can adjust the volume to low. Source: we had a 2025 replacement Yaris. It's annoying but the older ones' seat belt alarm is even more annoying, although I use the seatbelt at all times. It also turn

It's like the MBS during the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis. Today it prints money, tomorrow it blows up in your face. Yeah they put a blue check on it like Elon did. Until they get paid to put the check on slop. Rotten fish is still ro

You don't have to wonder, because it is the agenda that you're thinking about and also the agenda of fossil fuel companies. But we now have two lessons that teach us that being anti-nuclear was stupid: the Ukraine war and the curr

Designated drop off points with disabled person priority is the answer. How do you dropp off a disabled person in a lane with clogged street side paking? Shouldn't you be against street side parking by the same logic?

Bicycles have bells and brakes, you know. And cycling commuters have eyes to see opening car doors. It's also more difficult to use your phone on a bike and Japan has new laws regarding that.

That's actually great for social media companies to create a profile on you and feed you ads. They don't care about the bots or denocracy. The only hope for a real public debate is to show up in person at the debate.
