Germans aren't straight out of Wall-E like some Americans ... they can walk 5-10 minutes ... walking is healthy. You should try it some time.

It's great ... there's always someone to accept cash (I like paying cash), and you donÂt have to touch the stinky gas/diesel nozzle. I love mandatory full service, makes me feel taken care of.

How does ransomware harm an air-gapped SSD that's only connected at time of backup and swapped with another one periodically?

Also, don't use clownd file storage. Local storage with backups works just fine. If your house burns, you're dead anyway, so who cares?

Turning a dial to change cabin temp is faster than "left vents to 75 degrees, you dumb bitch. Why can't you have a dial instead of a stupid ass touch screen and yap control? Huh? HUH?!"

Or just walk to a coffee shop, banter with with barista a bit, sit down, drink coffee. Don't be such an asozial who wants to do everything on his couch while gaining even more weight.

You don't have to permanently damage robotaxis to disable them, just surround them with something they think is an immovable fence. If people will get 20-40 years in a cage for putting down some cones and foam, well then, the United Stinkholes will have shown its true colors as a Fascist shithole.

Bingo, a lot of Americans view moving abroad as some sort of moral failure just short of treason.

Yeah, just what I need when I want to relax in a public park, the mindless buzz of stinking drones overhead. As if the tourist helichoppers aren't bad enough. All because people are too lazy to walk to the store or too asozial (post COVID Stockholm Syndrome) to go to a restaurant.

Or just accept the risk and don't go to dodgy sites. Extended support is a scam.

I live in NYC (though probably moving to Europe this year) ... the amount of tourist and other helicopters flying overhead is already annoying as hell. I'm imagining the constant low buzz of drones overhead and cringing.

COVID is ovah. O v a h !

Enabling people to stay isolated at home behind a stinking screen is actually harmful ... people should interact with others, whether they like it or not. Keeps 'em sane.

In non-shithole countries (like say Germany), Ring doorbell owners can be sued or even arrested for filming anything but their own property. But the US is a shithole, so they get shit.

I see what you did there! But smaller pods with batteries may be the answer since they can stop and "park" easily without blocking the main tracks and can run off batteries while parking.

Why not have a grounding strip and an overhead 600vdc rail or wire in the tunnels to charge in motion? It can be high enough off the ground to avoid people who need to evacuate touching it.
