  • Germany btw has a central car and driving permit registration.

  • How are you Americans doing car registration? As someone from another country it sounds a little bit crazy to not have a national car registry. Is this on the state level? And if someone from Texas is caught speeding in Arizona, police has to as there for the ID of the owner? Or is there no registry at all? And why shouldn't states be able to collect a tax from their citizens?

  • Yes, you are looking at a social media post of the CEO of Tesla promoting the Cybertruck as being waterproof and being able to serve briefly as a boat, so that it can cross rivers, lakes & even seas that aren't too choppy. So it's not too stupid for someone to believe that the "wade mode" in his Cybertruck is allowing him to cross a lake

  • Money is the universal way to exchange goods or services. Yes, you may be getting paid for your tax-doging renovation in gold, bitcoin or artworks. You may accept Monero or Roblox gift cards as a payment for drugs. And you might find other people who will accept Roblox gift cards, but that doesn't scale.

    But then you have 10.000€+ in Bitcoin or gold and need to exchange it into real money in order to use it. Your local supermarket will not accept gold. You may be able to buy a house with Bitcoin, but the seller also needs to launder this money into something usable.

    The neat thing here is that this might work for some small drug dealer or some craftsman doing a few things off the book. But if you're doing a lager scale operation, that will get harder

  • We have them here in Germany and let me tell you: they do work, they save money, they are easy to install, and no, they won't burn your house down.

  • I've been running this for years and it's great. Does what it says and it's really awesome to have a tool like that

  • I never played that game - so what does this mechanic do?

  • Yeah - they know that you are using the service a lot. They know that you are willing to pay. But they are not getting ongoing revenue from you. That is something no MBA manager CEO dude can accept. They will come for lifetime users

  • The mar we are talking about is right in the middle of Madrid. Just three kilometers from the Prado and the city centre. It's located in a busy neighborhood right next to several other bars and cafes. So please stop pretending that people are forced to go into that fascist place because there are no alternatives.

  • No, but if you go to a fascist fan café, people will think that you are a fan of fascists. And there is a difference between historical monuments and businesses catering to fascists

  • I mean ... you've written 1100 comments here on Lemmy in three months. So ... welcome to the asylum?

  • Yeah, he is 54. Which means that he has maybe two, three, or with good health care (that he can afford) four decades left on this planet. So if everything hinges on him without a successor, he's doing something wrong.

  • Back when I used Twitter, that was totally possible. Even without being totally insane. In some areas Twitter did work like a giant unorganized chat room. You were able to discuss the current soccer games. Or current events. Breaking news. The local elections. I totally did write more than 50 tweets back in 2016 in the election night when Trump was elected or during the soccer world cups

  • After May 20, users will only be able to use their devices to read content that’s already downloaded. Once an older device is deregistered or reset to factory settings, it cannot be re-registered after May 20.

    Which means: You can still read your books, but you are on borrowed time. If something goes wrong, you can't access all the books you bought from Amazon in the last decades anymore with your current device. So jailbreaking makes sense and it is also important to crack the DRM on those books.

  • Not only traffic - Google is now able to kill every protest in the areas they are operating their Waymos. They can block streets or simply do an automated Tiananmen Square massacre by ordering their thousands of vehicles to drive at full speed through the protestors. They can also encircle protest camps like on Tahir square by simply driving around them at high speeds

  • Just imaging the folks going into such a bar

  • That is in a car from the 1990s. A modern car in that form could use way less.

  • It kind of was peak car:

    • small (3,7 x 1,65m)
    • wasn't that expensive
    • no fancy electronic entertainment systems with subscriptions and problems. Just put in your System of a Down-CD and you're good!
    • Goes up to 150km/h, which is enough speed for everyone
    • Uses between 6 and 7 liters of gas. Which is better than your pickup truck
    • You can drive around with 5 people and transport more stuff than you think.

  • The question is kind of weird. I want to build a new gaming computer, but that is nothing I'm doing at current prices and I can totally live without building a new one. If that one breaks, I might reconsider. But I really do not know if there are people around who are planning to build a new computer in May 2028.
