Lmfao what does Russia even has to do with Sweden?

we are so fucked

Yes, if Sweden were to be populated only by people that associate the Russia-Ukraine situation with "we are gonna get invaded by russia because the donbass did", I would say you are fucked, because it's quite hard to run a proper democracy with a population lacking basic history and geopolitical knowledge.

And private gun ownership

Ah yes, private gun ownership, the true horseman of a country's defense when getting invaded by another. Lol.

Thank you Social Democrates....

You have the luck to live in one of the countries with one of the most solid/corruption-free democracies and level of education in the world (even though it doesn't appear to be true for all sweds) and you have the audacity to come here and complain that you cant carry a gun around and accusing your fellow sweds of voting for the same politics that allowed your country to reach such progress... As an italian, I would kill to have my country's politics elevated to that level, from the corruption shit-show that they have basically been for all history.

Seriousy, educate yourself, especially on what war in Ukraine. Thanks. Do it for your country and for its democracy.

The Catholic Church has protected pedophiles among their ranks for as long as the Catholic Church has been around.

It is documented and undeniable that there have been such figures in the church, but it is my opinion that this specific pope has been trying to bring the church in a different direction, both on this specific issue, but also generally more progressive, if you want.

Yeah, a real leader among leaders.

Thanks for sharing this article, I've read it and tried to do more reaserch on the topic (turns out the wikipedia page on the matter is pretty dense and source-full, while the NYT wrote just has a couple lines written quickly). I will answer with this article from the guardian

Bro out of all the people of the churches in the world, I really think pope Francis is the last person to bring this point on...

I think you missed the meaning of inefficency on this matter...

While it is undeniable that electric cars have a better supply-to-engine energy efficency than combustion cars, you can understand that they are equiparated in the meme as "equally bad" if you think outside of the box labelled "rubber wheels on high friction asphalt transporting usually a single individual".

Compare that with a tram or a train, transporting multiple passengers with the same electric engine but also steel-on-steel friction on the wheels and the difference between an ICE and EV vehicle becomes a mere approximation error; god I can do the math for you if you want, but I bet even a disel bus with a lot of passengers has a better efficency/passenger ratio than an EV.

So 1 electric car = 4 less carbon liquid fuelled cars worth of pollution.

Also I think this is a bit misleading: if I buy an EV this won't magically destroy 4 (where is this number from?) already existing carbon liquid cars, it merely means you avoided adding 1 other ICE car to the total.

I believe this would be the opinion of the mass of people in the picture, not the single guy :)

Not the same bed width or volume though.

Are you going to tell me that insane difference in vehicle and engine size and weight is needed to gain that extra inch and a half of bed width? I think we can agree it is absolutelty not and I am pretty sure you can find a model of the sane truck with a larger/longer bed as well. Actually here it is, and it hauls way more than the "truck", crazy bro they even made a version thats closed and higher so you can bring like 3x more stuff and it doesnt rain on your precious power tools or literally whatever you are carrying around.

Not the same comfort level in the cab or crew capacity.

Sorry what? Comfort level? You mean like ass-heating seats or cup holders? Werent we talking about a work vehicle? And even if not, what comfort feature is it not possible to implement in the smaller one? A toilet in the backseats? The crew capacity argument kinda "holds" in the very very specific and nieche scenario where you need to carry a very big team... but also not that many tools and materials? And I think we can agree 99,99% of the trips done in those don't fall within this scenario.

Definitely not the same towing capacity.

14000 libs towing capacity, my brother in christ, do you need to tow a tank? Because if not, the only thing that number is towing is its marketing

It's silly to buy the bigger truck just to drive around town, but there are plenty of legitimate reasons to get one.

And that's kind of what this entire community is advocating for; I don't think no one cares if a person that actually needs a worktruck buys the silly type of truck for actual work (even though this posts wants to say that for A LOT of those cases there might be a financially and efficiency-wise better alternative). What's stupid is that roads in some countries around the world are filled with them and I assure you 99% of them are used for the 1% they are advertised for.

Wall of text, forgot to say that they also have shitty visibility, while the second type one is great

Mhhhh the Nvidia shield does not really seems like a bad idea... Its price is actually not that bad (even though you need the Pro to have USB ports so i can plug an hard drive into it).

You say that plex on my current FireTv can see and play media from a NAS/other server in the local network?

That seems like a good piece of advice, maybe I will use this temporarily while I figure if I want to get a dedicated device.

Hello? Are we absolutely stupid?

Qualcuno dica al bro dell'MI5 qua che finchè il mio telefono prova a connettersi ai server di google in stati uniti/irlanda 117 volte/minuto a me degli hacker cinesi che gli rubano i segreti industriali tipo cesso con intelligenza artificiale può fregare ben poco.
