Crazy that this gets downvoted. smh HN Parking spaces dedicated to scooters are vastly better than parking spaces dedicated to privately owner cars. A scooter parking spot will serve vastly more people than a car parking space.

Why right wing? I’m rather left leaning, even by European standards. I’m not some crazy antivaxxer either, plenty of those on both sides. Nevertheless the pandemic responses by various governments I have to interact with have done much to d

But why? These are same parking spots I would park my car in. A parking spot for cars is useful to only one person at a time, if converted to a scooter parking space with some paint it can serve vastly more people. Straight up donating park

I’m a big fan of Monero, but strongly disagree with you. If used correctly, Monero can provide strong anonymity. It is possible to use Monero to hide your activities. It is also very possible to fuck this up and end up in jail because you

Exploits exist, they are vastly more complicated and harder to come by than they were 10 or 20 years ago. We don’t see criminal groups building huge botnets with driveby attacks anymore. Not that they don’t want to, it’s just too difficult.
