Hehe, “ladybug”.

Pah! That sausage is barely bigger than her.

Is this digital Mitosis?

The current BMW X1 (Diesel). It’s my company car and MAN I hate it, or rather the endless stream of problems with the infotainment system.

I’m currently thinking about going back to a privately owned car. The Hyundai Inster seems nice and affordable.

edit: I also own a VW T3 oldtimer, but it needs quite a bit of work to be done, especially on the lower chassis.

Granted, but you get third person view behind your head while aiming.

I got a plug-in hybrid as my company car before the current one and despite my bias I gotta admit it was rather practical for my use case. Most workdays I was able to drive fully electric (we have chargers at our branches) and when driving to my rural hometown (with absolutely 0 hopes to charge with more than one phase) on the weekends I burned some gas.

Still, not gonna defend the german “Dienstwagenprivileg” for plug-ins, in way to many ways it just greenwashes those cars.

edit: current plug-ins have up to 100km range, mine only had around 45.

Weiß ich nicht, ist das schon wieder Jevons Paradox?

Am WE mal mit einem Freund in Satisfactory reingeschaut. Ist 'ne Weile her, dass ich nicht merke, dass es 3 Uhr morgens ist.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t air dominance the US military’s strong suit?

Oooor the other hand?

I grew up in a rural environment in the 90s and early 2000s where it was perfectly normal to use “gay” with a negative connotation. The kind of environment where homosexuality was weird and every guy 13+ had to constantly prove he wasn’t gay or get angry getting called so.

I was fortunate enough to move away from there and meet new people and ideas.

I remember one turning point specifically. I was chatting with some people and used “gay” to describe some product I didn’t like, without thinking about it all, no ill intent. Later one of the guys took me aside and asked me if I realised I said that while a gay friend was standing right by. It couldn’t give a good answer in that moment but it gave me something to think about and I apologized later. He took it like a champ and I’m much more conscious about language since.
