The personal responsibility theory of pollution was made up by these corporations you are defending. The reason that companies make products is to sell them yes. But the reason the products are made in polluting ways and with essentially un

Not everyone hates driving, and public transportation only works better in high density areas. Retrofitting cars with electric motors isn't better for the environment, it's just destroying pieces of history. (If you're going

If you've never encountered a dangerous situation in the right lane, you don't drive very often or very far or both. Electric vehicles are not actually better than gas for continuous use , they're better in the city when the

Private cars aren't obsolete (how could they be?), and banning them is a freedom of movement issue. Not everyone lives in New York City. Not to mention the joy of driving should be taken away

You seem to be against actually selling software, and tactily agreeing that the main beneficiary of the saas is the business renting the software to consumers. We already know that company benefits from not actually selling you software.

I am sorta surprised that the support of SaaS is so high. It seems that saas in consumer products is the cause of so many consumer issues. Few pieces of software really need that many updates, and being able to view the code is key for futu

There doesn't really have to be, we could let cars drive for the conditions. Also, unless the UK is different, there isn't a negotiation process before either...

Yeah, but the hard speed limits existence in the first place was from this. There used to be roads with limits, and the limits also took a long time to go up, they are still low, and most backroads are still like 55 or lower

It sorta sounds like you don't really enjoy driving. After Germany is safe too, even with the unlimited speed.

The speed limit being 70 in the us is a bad joke. A relic from the gas shortage we had once that must have proven lucrative. Our roads are long wide and straight, it shouldn't be so low. (though Texas has some 85mph sections)

Fact and truth aren't synonymous. The connotation in English is different. A fact implies a verifiable statement with no grey area."A man died from falling". The truth implies you have the full picture and relevant context.

I am 100% certain that you can evade taxes, and do crime without cash. Even movies have criminals do wire transfers. It is hard to have, say, negative interest rates though.

It's funny, because cash transactions are definitely more common among poorer people. Also, using (even more) imaginary money benefits banks, ultra wealthy, and governments not regular people. Even among the criminals laundering money,

40 mins to make a 5 min drive sounds terrible. What does rural mean to you? The United States is huge, and if you are in Europe, you probably weren't all that far from a city (making public transit feasible). Also cars are fun, maybe n

I mean, if no one is willing to do a job then you have to pay more for it. That's why dangerous jobs have hazard pay. And since you can't do a physical job for a long as a white collar job, you need more money to compensate.

Wait, Cloudflare stopped being benevolent by NOT abusing their power enough? You have two different opinions one is that Cloudflare should respect privacy and one is that is should moderate the internet, these are fundamentally at odds.
