  • Additionally I would like to propose that we don't sign up for apple or other fruit rentals or delivery subscriptions.

  • AI shit alone, I never understood the urge to build a whole OS in the browser. I want my browser to view websites. If I want more, then I can install extensions. I'd rather them release this as some sort of "official" extension. Might switch to LibreWolf (do you have any other suggestions?)

  • Weird, because I'm pretty sure all other mice can be used forever, as long as they don't break.

  • We compared land transport options for getting to net zero. Hands down, electric rail is the best.

  • In most of Europe you need to pay a fee to drive on public roads, sometimes only motorways

  • I started to get these daily at random hours, even when I'm sleeping. Someone's trying to hack me?

  • It might not be 2-factor. Microsoft has an option to log in via email code, which doesn't need a password.

  • Okay, that sounds fine, but what about an apartment high rise? That's a residential property, and there's not a great way to have it all be rental property without being owned by a corporation of some kind.

    Then not all of them have to be for rent. In my country at least you can buy individual apartments.

    Also you could allow them to own the property they build, but once sold off, they or another corporation (or individual with too many properties, maybe the limit can be 3 or 4) cannot buy them again.

    Obviously I'm not a lawyer and this was just a quick suggestion. I expect people more familiar with the law can word this better.

  • Yeah, I think many people thought you were talking about those electric scooters, which are, well pretty damn silent and good to make cities less car focused (like in the US). I mean things like this.

  • Tipping is fine, but only as a bonus for excellent service. There shouldn't be a "suggested gratuity" or some shit like that and also obviously shouldn't be counted as part of the employee's salary, like in the US

    • Slave labour in prisons.

    It would be nice if prisoners of non-violent/minor crimes could (voluntarily) work (at maybe a lower wage than usual) and and they would be able to get what they earned once they get out of prison.

  • It's fine as a concept, it allows you to live somewhere without making a commitment long-term.

    But there needs to be more regulations in place, like maybe making it illegal for corporations to buy residential property and requiring by law that any new residential building must have the option to buy as well as rent, with regulations to ensure it's a fair price.

  • All bottled water - no one needs them and it's plastic that's here forever

    Depends on where you live. It's a bit ignorant to say "no one needs them". Also sometimes you have no choice, like maybe in an airport.

  • Yes, except we shouldn't "pitch" it as a total change if we want it to happen. Unfortunately the general public has been brainwashed into believing we are basically either terrorists or we belong in an asylum. It's insane but it's the world we live in....
