This meme is an example of how the superstructure maintains the base.

It's ideology misdirecting attention away from class conscientiousness. If we're angry about a perceived cultural wrong, we're not paying attention to how wages have stagnated while productivity has soared.

Maybe Marxism, at least as a diagnostic tool, isn't such a bad thing after all.

I like old cars, but the point is there will be a point at which getting a car that is as uncomplicated as a 1990s Japanese sedan will end. In 20 years time you'd have to deal with all sorts of electric and software issues.

It used to be that you could just take out the cassette player and insert a Bluetooth radio, for instance. In modern cars everything is integrated software and it sure as hell won't be maintained by car manufacturers after 10 years at most.

For now. In twenty years time the current fleet of newish cars will be the old junk.

In Europe (in my case the Netherlands, but it's similar in surrounding countries) you cannot pass on the right and you can get fined for it. If you do pass on the right you're taking a bigger risk because it is not expected.

You can also get fined for staying in the left or middle lane for too long. But that's somewhat rare. You can get away with it a bit to pass an extra truck (our trucks speed limit is slower) or if the right lane is full and slower than the lane to the left of it, but don't drive excessively slow on the left. Especially on the Autobahn.

America as in the Americas. Tomatoes came to Europe after Columbus.

Italians are the laziest cooks. They took half their culinary tradition from Asia, and the other half from America.

1.53 here. But only for 7 more years before it goes back to whatever the market is.

This cunty one should remain though. It's appropriate.

In my country torrent sites are blocked, so I use a search plugin for qBittorrent to find Linux ISOs. I don't quite remember which one I use or how I installed, but it was quite simple. Google is your friend.
