I think it also has to do with the economy, not just nazi salutes. Its a bad job market, people dont have money, so luxary cars are not going to be attractive.

Also there is hardly any reason to buy a Tesla… Volvo recharge and others are better cars, made by actual car companies with a good reputation for quality.

And old age.

Ok I understand. There is no way someone connect what you write here with your real identity. Only your instance even sees your ip. And your internet provider I guess.

You shouldnt. Post and be downvoted. As long as you are not intentionally trolling anyone, it shows strength of character to stand up for what you believe.

Its very different from work where you are not free to do what you want, because your entire paycheck is based on going along with the charade. You dont have to do that outside of work. :)

I guess its also our culture where sex is seen as the most important thing in life. So everyone is convinced their entire value consists of how much mating they are doing. Maybe that would be true if we were breeding animals but we are not.

You dont use your real name on Lemmy so I dont see why your history matters here. I could understand it on linkedin, which is why its a super cringe platform also, but here? I dont see a problem.

I like Lemmy because it can be genuine and real, unless posted on a instance that moderates away opinions the moderators dont agree with.

You can go back and find opinions in my history you wont agree with. But thats because i dont try to look a certain way, and I dont change my opinions to look good to others.

I think everyone should do the same. Be who you are. Reflect on feedback, maybe you are wrong, but if you dont think so, dont change yourself.

Bad sex is not better than no sex… Wtf… :)

Its like having a junior developer with a world of confidence just change shit and spend hours breaking things and trying to fix them, while we pay big tech for the privilege of watching the chaos.

I asked chat gpt to give me a simple squid proxy config today that blocks everything except https. It confidently gave me one but of course it didnt work. It let through http and despite many attempts to get a working config that did that, it just failed.

So yeah in the end i have to learn squid syntax anyway, which i guess is fine, but I spent hours trying to get a working config because we pay for chat gpt to do exactly that…

Stop using that shit, your life will be better for it.

Trump doesnt understand that a deal should benefit both partners, not just him.

“The EU is so difficult”… Lols.

Thats hilarious as usual when it comes to Trump. :)

And the tone… I expect… The president for a few months, who has been in jail and is full of lies, expects someone, which he doesnt know by the right name, to comply with arbitrary rules…

What a guy.

Any theories why?

Still laughing my ass off… Imagine trying to Google for solutions to “windows app” :) :)

But we live in a world where Muskie renamed Twitter to X, so…some serious brain damage going on all over the place.

Im starting to feel smarter now, as an effect of these guys becoming dumber and dumber, so I guess thats a plus.

You should be happy its the first you hear about it. It wasnt popular when it came and it never became popular and still it took a decade to fucking die.

It got bundled with Firefox in June 2015 and now exactly 10 years later, its finally gone.

The suspects – aged 25 to 75 – come from a wide range of backgrounds. They include a priest, a grandfather, a music teacher, a paramedic and others described as “good family men”.

Every. Fucking. Time.

Something about becoming a priest in life must be about trying to fight inner thoughts you dont want to have. Maybe you want to believe that God can help remove thoughts. Its interesting. They are always on lists of pedophiles.

Signed up for subscription service, realized you are getting exploited…

Well… Yes.

For me its been almost 0%. :) Very happy with it.

Tempest Rising, the new modern command & conquer game. I really like it, and struggled for weeks how to beat the computer in skirmish on hard as GDF.

Turns out i hadnt realized the huge value of comms…

Flatpak has annoyances like sometimes not following your icon theme, or just generally looking out of place because not picking up system defaults.

It works but I avoid it. On Arch Linux, there is a huge AUR repository where users have made native packages, and thats usually much better than Flatpak. But on Ubuntu, Flatpak is the only option sometimes.

I meant that with Trump in charge of the USA, it would be at the bottom of the ranking if it was included in the European stats.
