I try to live by the rule of I would rather be alive than dead. Being “right” is no consolation when you’re in a hospital bed dying.
The same goes for cars and especially bikers. You may be right, but being right doesn’t stop the giant SUV next to you from flattening you.
This is an android enthusiast community. For a lot of people here the answers to that are going to be yes, yes and yes.
Registering to vote is pretty normal. You might not have to because the government already has records of you and that is the same in America for a lot of people. For immigrants in Europe you still have to register!
If you change municipality or state in Europe you might also have to register again so they have you voting in the right local elections.
I find the wait times have gone up as they prioritise both drive thru and delivery options ahead of people actually at the counter.
The floor at one of the spaceports just fully disappeared permanently for me, and bounties seem bugged in that they are not removed even after killing all witnesses. One of the transport pods in the main city is also just permanently gone. This is on top of all the issues you pointed out!
I would disagree with a big part of this characterization. Specifically that prices are out of control beyond housing (which is completely fucked), but outside of that Canada has done better than most comparable countries when it comes to inflation over the last few years.
Taxes are not that crazy unless your only comparison is the US, which is a bad comparison.
I mostly agree with this but more than shorter code I value readability, I would rather take 3 lines to be clear to any developer than use some obscure or easy to misunderstand structure to write it in 1.
I just hope it works so that people can shut up with the high speed rail only works in other places garbage. Just tell them to go visit california and see how good it is… Only works if they finish it so I hope they do.
But without main population centres is it going to be done successfully? Imo they should have started with one of the ends, so that at least there is a big trip destination.
Too late for that now and I really hope it works out and we get a good example for north american high speed rail projects to point to despite everything.
It’s 90% on gen z with investments, the article has a link to the survey they’re getting the data from (or at least another article with more specific numbers about the survey)
Its a shame because it is something I am actually really good at, and now it’s a completely useless skill!
It is also ergonomically horrible, to the point where I prefer to use the magic track pad over the mouse.
Honestly I can’t think of a single European language where it is the case. German, Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian, Basque… none of them sound like airplane.
This is exactly my experience as well. It doesn’t help that my peripherals are purchased based on if they work with windows so half the functionality is missing on linux, and I’m not about to go buy new ones.
That and fixing any issue can be such a frustrating experience because when you search you end up with fixes for every distro except yours, or the fix for your distro that worked 5 years ago but now doesn’t.
My current forray into linux is going well except for taking all day to configure the dual boot though, so maybe some things have gotten better!
This astro turfed guy again? Yikes
I feel all of these are relatively realistic and achievable by my workplace except for reliable public transit which is out of their hands. Thankfully they’re still remote first though there have been a few indications that this might change.
Your specs are slightly better than mine and I’m running at a stable 144fps at 1440p with everything maxed out. I guess you’re running at 4k? Even so I would expect your framerate to be higher than that
People have been saying the Chinese economy is a year or two away from complete collapse for the past few decades, each time for a different reason. I’ll believe it when it actually happens.
The point that everyone in the comments is getting at is that it should not be required for people to spend 1000s of dollars a month on a personal vehicle. It’s not the transit thats forcing people to be stuck in cities, it’s the lack of it and the overreliance on cars that people can’t afford!
I think you’re misreading it. In the same way as there are people that need to ride on planes (for example for their job, or to move to where they have a job, etc), there are people that need to use social media.
For example, if you own an online store you really need to have a social media presence. Same if you are an artist, and live off of commissions. I’m sure there are plenty more examples.
