I’ll do you one better
Replace most city car infrastructure by bicycle infrastructure. The few remaining required car parks? Move those underground under buildings and parks. Then those places that used to be car parks, make those actual parks to walk and sometimes cycle in
Then move solar on top of building roofs
It’s all a scam as the house and all the intermediaries win, the client over time always loses, and somehow we keep doing it in the name of “fun”
Go out and do something
Go somewhere you haven’t been yet.
Go places where there are other humans.
Go find a hobby you like and join a club.
Talk to people
Start practicing kyokushin.karate. most modest and humble people you can find who train hard to find peace
Go to a bar, talk to a stranger. Do it again. And agait. You’ll learn, it’ll become easier
Just do something, anything. Go out, meet people.
That is your cure
I fucking guarantee that all used services will not be what you wanted, but from companies that paid Google the most, fuck your needs.
In principle, what you described isn’t bad, sounds nice, but hells no unless I host it all myself and it’s all open source so I can trust it
You Americans really need to start learning how taxes work, well, are supposed to work. In Europe taxes are higher and we’re happy for it because we understand how tondo that part and what younger back for it, right.
And this is why you want to promote bicycles. Most car trips are under 3 miles which is easily doable on a bicycle, even easier on an electric bicycle.
Maintenance costs? Like double digit costs per year per bike, if that. I bought a new bike and had zero maintenance costs for 2 years now
Wow, congrats in the good ending!

Tip #2
Just ignore all self help shit and enjoy life being yourself
sellers of second hand vehicles
Well that’s just a cheap shot, what else do you expect them to do but lie?
I’m in a building with multiple offices for multiple companies and one of them has a massage place.
Each floor has one set of shared bathrooms for men and women
The masseuse guy goes to the bathroom and I’ve noticed him there multiple times taking a dump, then walking out without washing his hands
And he then massages people all over…
As soon as there is “unlimited” content, the vast majority of said content is shit
So here is a stupid question
What exactly is the fediverse? What’s included in it? I’ve hear much about fediverse and Lemmy, but is Lemmy part of it or not? Are other systems like Blue sky a part of it or not? Do I transparently see posts from all those different systems?
Am I the only one who thinks that this is very bad for Putin?
This is basically Zelenskyy giving Putin permission to hold a stupid party. The optics of it obviously are that Zelenskyy is powerful and Putin isn’t.
Since Putin’s type is all about him being powerful and able to make the country better, that is a very bad position for him to be in
This stupid war so far has cost Russia 1.5 million casualties, it ran through the vast majority of its weaponry, so much so that it had to pull out 1970 era materiel, it showed to the entire world that it’s internal corruption caused its military to be so weakened that it can barely hold itself to a small country, it has shown that it’s simplistic tactics don’t work on the battle field, and the only way it can get gains is through sheer massive meat grinder attacks. Meanwhile it’s now massively being attacked in its own country, it’s infrastructure is being wrecked and Russians are slowing seeing more and more what war really is like.
And for all of that Russia only holds a small sliver of Ukraine, and it doesn’t hold Kyiv, and it can’t touch Zelenskyy who at this point is a world wide hero. Russias economy has been running red hot as a war economy for a few years now it’s through its reserves, and with the human losses, there is now an enormous gap in human capital, it’s economy lost a shitload of able bodied men and in return received a lot of men that won’t be able to work and will need lifelong medical help.
If Russia wins, it will winna utterly destroyed piece of land, that will require hundreds of billions to repair, billions that Russia doesn’t have, filled with people that hate Russia and will cause terrorist attacks and what not. If Russia loses, it was all for nothing and then the world will pressure it to pair reparations to Ukraine.
And now Zelenskyy basically gives Putin permission for his parade, that must be fucking humiliating for Russians
I don’t know. I know Russians mostly don’t get to see the real news, kinda like a fox news situation, so likely they don’t know how bad the situation really is, but if they know even a little about it, I imagine that they may start thinking about a new leadership
I think Putin is fucked
Russians are fucked too because whatever comes after Putin, I doubt it’s democracy, and the guy in charge will doubtfully be better than Putin. The new guy in charge will also inherit a wreck of a country
This is the shit dictatorships get you.
Samsung used to be awesome up until, say, 10-15 years ago? Then they just got so big and quality just went off a cliff
I have a Samsung flat screen from 15 years ago, the thing is a tank and won’t die. A new Samsung flat screen is lucky to make it 5 years tops
but these companies are so far into the ad revenue game that they seem to have forgotten why people used their service in the first place
That already rang true 20 years ago
And open the door to thousands different atrocities committed by thousands of different people
I feel you’re very optimistic if you think that single key people made all the difference in the world and that without them, no other key people would have stepped up
