Because everything the EU and the rest of the world does is stupid. By adapting things from other countries would be akin to acknowledging that other countries can do some things better than the US. But this can’t be, since the US is Numbaaa 1! /s

Ask the French and Romanians how well Nuclear Fission Power Plants are going for them rn lol

Cos its a prefix regarding the unit

In the context of prices of cars it is indeed a rather small amount.

k is just a prefix, it is unit-independent

Because humans are creatures of habit, and as long as stuff works for them, even suboptimally, a lot of people aren’t inclined to change their habits, even if it might mean a change would improve their lives. As long as sth is “good enough”, there simply isn’t an incentive for change.

Also, since there isn’t a huge corporation behind Linux, there is literally no direct advertisement for it, so people who aren’t into tech simply never will get in touch with it.

I don’t have a Logitech Mouse, but I fixed the double-click problem for me by spraying 70% isopropanol alcohol under the mouse button

I agree that tobacco products should be heavily taxed, but should cigarettes be banned outright? I’m not sure banning is the right way to go, I mean just look at what the prohibition of alcohol back then did. A thriving, unregulated black market. People should be able to buy cigarettes, that way they can be sure of what it is they are smoking.

Just my opinion tho.

How tf are those places still in business, are the majority of people in this area making six figures a year, or what

A lot of food is still safe to consume after it’s expiration date, tho. I think in the US it’s called ‘best by’ or sth like that, underlining that it isn’t necessarily a hard expiration date, just that it tastes the best before this date.

I’m pretty sure this is already a thing

This is very likely form the US where u need to be 21 to buy beer. So even a 20 year old would be a child to you? This is dumb af.

You’re right, edited it, thx.

Kinda ironic how people say we live in a cost of living crisis but then people also have always money at hand to throw it out the window for top level consumerism stuff. People have no self-restraint, do they

Edit: self-restraint, not self-constraint

Y do u collect Linux ISOs?

I think u overlooked what community this was posted in lol

Cos of the Boomer Managers. Boomers are allergic to changes lol

Absolut genial wie sich sämtliche Unternehmen während der fetten 2010er Jahre die Taschen vollgehauen haben und nichts in die Zukunft investiert haben und es jetzt aber die normalen Angestellten wieder ausbaden sollen lol.

Typischer Fall von ‘Gewinne privatisieren, Verluste sozialisieren’.

This is what happens when Boomers retire; they have too much money and now also the time to do all of this BS lol

We have $2 gas in germany. But it’s per litre, lol (actually it’s even more expensive, I wish it would ‘only’ be $2 lol)
