Don't buy a truck if you're just a daily commuter, that's just plain dumb. Get a BEV with much better efficiency and a tow hitch for the occasional needs.

That's not 150 miles of actual driving range, it's more like 75-100miles of actual range.

Meh, i tried usenet about a year or two ago when I was getting back into this, and it was utterly useless for anything that wasn't English speaking media for myself. Anything locally produced or foreign shows translated (for my kids) where almost impossible to find so YMMV. It seems to have a lot less variety than torrents offer.

I found a private torrent tracker that caters to my liking and now there's almost nothing I can't find anymore and it's also full bandwidth (1gbit in my case) download 90% of the time. Costs are about the same, just for VPN instead of provider and indexer.

EU har jo valgt at lave bøder efter omsætning og ikke overskud, netop fordi det reelle overskud i en region kan mudres med diverse skattefinter. Når vi har med spillere af den globale størrelse at gøre giver der netop mening at bruge omsætningen i stedet.

Oh please, as if it's only the US having massive issues...They're not, they're just the most loud mouthed about it online and it gets tiring. There's only so many fucks to give before fatigue sets in. While their situation is truly shit, it's also by far not even close to the worst were dealing with at the moment. So yeah, I'm tapping out on the subject of US political drama for a while, that doesn't mean I don't sympathise with them.

Yeah but generally a generation is characterised by the aesthetics of their teen years, boomers were around 30 in the mid 80's. Using pop imagery from the 70's would be more appropriate

Whats with the 80's retro? "Boomers" are from the 40's-60's, not 80's

Traffic fines are made to bankrupt drivers or to finance the state, but to encourage people to drive safely.

Yeah that really depends on location...in Denmark the minimum fine for speeding is 160€, and that's if you're just more than 3kmph above limit...it just increases from there and ends with something like a 1000€ fine and them withdrawing your drivers licence (a new licence is going to set you back 2000€). If you're above 100% speeding the take the car too.

Apple får en bøde på 3.7mia kroner...de havde en omsætning, bare i EU, på over 650mia kroner i 2024...selvom beløbet lyder virkelig højt er det grinagtig lavt.

That's not going to be enough...the dude claimed "coast to coast" autonomous driving capabilities "by end of the year" back in 2016.
