Driving is inherently stressful. Hell, merely being around cars is proven to negatively impact your health: https://www.eea.europa.eu/en/newsroom/editorial/are-you-noticing-the-harmful-noise

Worse, too often these laws are selectively enforced only when cops are looking for an excuse to profile minorities and poorer drivers.

I would fully agree that confronting a lunatic face to face is dangerous, but the chances of getting shot for driving slow is next to zero.

It is unusual and I don’t like it, but I wouldn’t say it is bad. If I liked the person I would probably come to like the name.

I never tried that, but if you fill a bottle with water and submerge it in water then you can drill holes in the glass without it shattering

Sort of like how the CIA tried to blackmail MLK into suicide and then had him killed when he refused to back down?

How many non-capitalist countries has the US bombed, overthrown through black ops, sanctioned or embargoed?

The US is every bit as bad fascist Russia, but Americans are so brainwashed that they refuse to see it. Even if you tell Americans about how the US infected black men with syphilis and forbid the doctors from treating it, Americans will just bury their head in the sand

The Christian one should be a missionary actually helping people. Christian faith that only exists in church is a false faith

Jokes aside, all of my favorite IDEs have an option to use VIM key bindings so learning VIM makes it easier to learn other IDEs.

That alone was enough to convince me to learn VIM

Prosperity gospel has been shitting on the red text of Christ for decades now.

Jesus hated wealth inequality. The only group he said would never enter heaven were the wealthy (“easier to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven”, in other words, it isn’t possible for the rich to enter heaven). Jesus also violently flipped tables and whipped the wealthy to drive them out of temples.

So conservative “Christians” abandoned the teachings of Christ many decades ago.

Flatpaks work great on my laptop, but they have can have issues if you use multiple hard-drives or partitions. Especially for gaming.

The rich do have flying cars. They just call them private jets. The rich own mansions (huge houses) all over the world, private islands, mega yachts that contain smaller yachts, their own submarines, and now they even have their own rocket ships

Lead poisoning. Leaded gasoline started in the 1930s, but in the 50s and 60s we destroyed our public transportation and then destroyed millions of black homes to build highways through our cities. So leaded gasoline peaked in the 70s.

Oh, and boomers, who have the most lead brain damage, hold all the political power because they hold all the wealth.

The “work yourself to death” is a stupid boomer concept. It’s a hugely negative aspect of traditional masculinity.

At least for boomers, loyalty was often rewarded with promotions, bonuses, and generous pensions. But these days companies will work you to death and then fire you for a 0.0001% boost to their quarterly profits. They’ll fire 10,000 people just so the billionaire shareholders can earn 1% more.

Readable code is especially important when companies lay people off every six months so you constantly lose expertise

When did the french become such insatiable bootlickers? As long as billion dollar corporations are still making billions then they should be told to kindly fuck off.

I’m not wasting my mental energy to create more profit for the shareholders if I’m not directly incentivised to do so.

Especially when those very same capitalists use their wealth and power to attack democracy and public institutions! Every dollar of profit I make for a modern day (wage) slaver does harm to my soul.

Brother, capitalists are using the power that capitalism gave them to destroy the planet, public institutions, and democracy around the global and you are still repeating the pro-capitalist / anti-communist Nazi lies from 80 years ago???

LLMs can be great for translating pseudo code into real code or creating boiler plate or automating tedious stuff, but ChatGPT is terrible at actual software engineering.

She’s a lawyer, so you won’t see her advocating for a violent uprising

Ah, yes, because the Nazis were famously beaten by lawyers…

We know from history that fascism cannot be beaten peacefully. We cannot appease or argue our way out of this problem.
