2008, the global financial crash, the subsequent shift of trillions of all the currencies towards the already-rich, then Covid hammering the final nail in the coffin of proving that governments care about the people only inasmuch as they provide value.

I get the frustration, but where is the evidence the far right would care an iota more about people? Specially during covid almost every far right government did worse, in terms of actual dead people, than any left one

They want to prove to themselves that their vote still matters.

Voting ultra right because of this is like trying to prove life is worth living by eating a bullet

Absolutely!... It would be hard to write a law against it, but definitely we should try

Planned obsolesce is like steroid for an infection in our consumerist societies

We almost got road hazzards with the ballsy groundhogs popping up

Awesome race but I'm going to echo something I read online I agree with

There should be no inters ... Either run on Wets or risk slicks

In inters, the race becomes Monaco where nobody dates to pass because if you leave the dry line you are fucked. On Wets it should be a normal race (albeit a slower speed one) and then, the first ballsy team to get the timing right on slicks would get a massive advantage... But it would be a risky move (like a game of chicken)

I've been taught that capitalism is all about innovation... So I'm sure the perfect long life car is just around the corner, they wouldn't actually just build crappy cars just to force us in a never ending cycle of consumerism, right?... Right?

/S ... in case it wasn't on the nose enough

Most pet dogs don't do work either... Show me a herder chihuahua or a fox hunting mastif

But again this is a dumb comparison... Why doesn't your dog repeat words like my parrot? It it dumb? Is it inferior? Or perhaps it's just another species?

Cats are naturally very effective as mousers, humans used them centuries in ships and they were so valuable because they preserved food stock and prevented disease... Show me a dog doing that specific job it was not bread for... No? There you go, dogs are inferior

Yuki deserves better than VCARB

Exactly right!.... It's like saying dogs are dumb because they don't learn words like a parrot would

In my experience the VAST majority of people that say things are hard on Linux have never actually tried it ...

Same with people that complain cats are not LoYAl lIkE DOgS... They have never had cats

DO NOT actively try to help anyone who is not sincerely asking for help

A small amount of selfishness is necessary for a healthy life
