Ever heard of Jehovah’s witnesses? Or Mormons going on their mission? They aren’t constant here, but they are definitely a thing in the Netherlands.

At the very least, do so for the infrastructure. I don’t mind companies trying to sell me the service competitively, but the infrastructure should allow for a competitive market.

My BIL got a new Tesla a few weeks ago, my dad has an older one (4 years iirc). I’ve driven my dad’s one and I must say, I don’t like it as a car and the build quality is not great. Too much fiddling with the touchscreen to get basic things done. Then I looked at my BIL’s Tesla and it’s a hard no now. You can’t remove the stick for the indicators. It’s moronic.

It’s not just Elon that makes me not even consider a Tesla. He’s just an extra reason to not consider the brand.

Ah, haven’t thought about youarelistening.to in a while. I should turn it on while working. It’s strangely relaxing and helps a lot with focus.

As the owner of a Fairphone, this is indeed my experience. The only non-standard app is the Fairphone app, which is easily ignored or might even be useful.

A friend of mine: liters are not the same as kilograms. She’s 30…

I mean, producing hydrogen by using electrolysis is probably the best option we have if we want to truly free ourselves from fossil fuels. You’ll run into the same issue that hydrogen cars have tho, which is that it’s expensive to run something on hydrogen compared to batteries. Even electric trucks are preferred to hydrogen trucks now due to the difference in costs, meaning that it’s unlikely that infrastructure will be rolled out that makes a hydrogen bike usable.

In the end, these kinds of bikes might be better off with a battery swapping system like seen in electric scooters.

I was about to say. Wikipedia has an overview.

I would honestly hope we would be smart enough not to go the road of the car again but instead invest in good public transportation, at least in cities and other densely populated areas. Flying cars, even automated, would be a terrible idea from both risk and energy/climate change perspectives.

That looks good! I think I’ll try it out soon, thanks for the tip 🙂

Might be a slightly unpopular opinion, but Volumio (software for a raspberry pi to run it as a headless audio system). It’s good, it’s relatively well maintained and works. But paying 7,50 a month for this software to get multiroom audio, Tidal integration and some other stuff is ridiculously expensive. That’s nearly 90 euro a year and the only thing that is actually an addition server side is syncing settings across devices and the Tidal integration (requires license fees iirc).

And sure, I can’t buy multiroom speakers for that kind of money, but damn, is it expensive.

So why not use something like WhatsApp or Signal instead then? Sounds like a terrible user experience to me. Nobody I know uses iMessage, everybody uses WhatsApp instead, which is platform agnostic.

But I’m European, so the iPhone penetration is lower iirc and they can’t stay in their bubble as much.

Even the Fiat Multipla looks better than the Cybertruck…

It’s the order of importance sir! First one on the list actually gets work done!
