i've never been in rome but i visited trieste - a very walkable city - a few weeks ago and i was shocked how cars were clogging up everything there. not necessarily cars driving, but parked cars. maybe trieste is a bit special because

the argument that seatbelts cause drowning wasn't mine personally but one an original advocate against seatbelts brought. shortly after the guy died in a car accident. i don't even back out of the garage without my seatbelt on. co

i think the "all factors" comes into play at a higher level than the consistency factor. you need the consistency to become _really good_ and with consistency you could probably become _rather good_ (lacking any blockers), but to

the seatbelt example isn't a 100% fit as seatbelt-opposers argued that seatbelts actually increase the risk of drowning, so they're not a security improvement but a trade-off. of course, cases of drowning in an automobile where t

owning a car is almost always the convenient option, especially if you disregard all the downsides like the (monetary) cost to one personally and to society at large. i agree that living car-free is not practical for many, mostly those li

i doubt that's correct. i can install windows as often as i like, i just have to pay for the key and afaik i can only use the key in one active install at a time (as a private user). so it's very different.

i always thought long covid is a variant of ME/CFS - it just got it's own name due to the novel virus, while non-covid cases of CFS are caused by viruses which usually have a far lower chance of causing CFS (epstein-barr/herp
