My wife’s opinion is that most of the pressure comes from other women and old men.

And most men thank you for that and wish all women were like that.

Battery cost pushing up vehicle cost, battery replacement cost, battery weight, low battery energy density, batteries that only last half of a car lifespan of 20 years.

We need much better batteries.

For now, plug in Hybrids are a good way to avoid many of these problems.

Strange how it tracks with the quality of music according to my social circles.

Maybe profanity is a symptom of a lack of imagination, not only in discourse, but in song as well.

Ankilosaurus.

Because nothing says antisocial quite like bony back armor and a big ass hammer.

I wish my inner voice was Morgan Freeman’s and not Adam Sandler’s from Nicky.

Agree, but how do you address the current problem, now that these people exist. Clearly the current strategy and these camps are just making it worse and if you release them, you are planting seeds of terrorism for a generation to come.

We should do all we can in society to prevent people from going to prison, but you can’t just release prisoners without rehabilitation.

How do you deprogram members of a cult at this scale?

Maybe an island penal colony in the Pacific is preferable to perpetual internment camps?

Agree. This is why average speed over distance enforcement is so effective.

It gets people to concentrate on their speed and it gets people to drive at very similar speeds.

In movies the resistance is usually of neutral good alignment, fighting against the lawful evil empire.

In real life the resistance is usually neutral evil, or true neutral at best.

I think this strategy makes sense, if you do an overall push to have all software sources verified. Knowing users, a simple warning that an app is unverified rarely affects their behaviour. You need to hide the app, to encourage app developers to get verified for it to work. Users ideally should be able to trust by default, because we can’t trust them to know any better.

Exactly. Linux mint is one of the few distros that really follow through that their users may not be proficient.

It’s why it’s my business distro of choice.

Amazing, when you sit people down and force them to think, they tend to come to their senses.

Loyalty be damned! It’s the law bitch!

Don’t touch the boats!

A reminder that not voting, has the same effect as splitting your vote proportionally to the eventual winner.

So in that way you are supporting that candidate.

Vote for someone else if you want to make a point.

It’s mainly in the USA it seems. In South Africa, we have had internet banking since 1995. So businesses stopped using checks around that time. Phone banking with DTMF was popular around that time as well. Bank transfers we used more than checks for businesses before then.

For individuals, debit cards became the default around the same time. Same functionality as a credit card, without the credit.

Then Internet banking became mainstream for individuals around the 2000s when everyone got access to the internet on their phones.

Cash remained popular throughout since ATM infrastructure was very good in South Africa.
