Yeah, for example convicted pedos have a higher suicide rate than the average - I don't think most people believe that is a statistic we should work on changing.

That's because of the way it is.

It's a war crime.

It's almost like the point of these scenarios is fun escapism and isn't about perfectly simulating an apocalyptic wasteland down to the most mundane and uninteresting parts.

Also, they time travel past going to the shitter, sleeping, most of the journeys etc. So unrealistic that it's literally unwatchable.

What country is this, so that I never travel there?

PHEV's are getting reclassified/re-regulated by the EU, because:

  • The stated average emissions are based on actually plugging in to charge, which most owners don't bother with, considering electric propulsion only accounts for like 1/15 of the cars total range

  • It has been regulated in a way that gave the manufacturer only small emissions penalty for increasing the motor size & weight of the car - because it was still considered to be electrically powered.

  • The design itself leads to a heavier car (having 2 propulsion systems)

Meanwhile, the full EV market has been more self-regulating in the sense that they have kept the weight/energy requirements down in order be competitive on range.

Sound more like the U.S. than Germany - Germany has the €49/month public transport ticket, relatively good public transport offerings and a green party that has the best election results of the western industrial countries. Of course shutting down nuclear power plants didn't do them any favours regarding pollution.

  • Don't code in a language/style that requires you to write code that makes prefixing necessary - divide and conquer instead
  • Readable code and well written unit/BDD tests is much better than separate documentation that will go out of sync the minute another Dev does some surgical incision into the code
  • Be verbose if you need to in order to convey the relevant semantics, the characters are virtually free
  • Use the casing that is mainstream/recommended by its' developers for the language at hand

In 1991 we paid around $60 for the best Nintendo NES video games (we had 22% VAT at the time in my country). That's roughly $127 adjusted for inflation.

Why do I need to install Linux in order to install a WYSIWYG word document editor of my choice?

By no one, I assume you mean everyone, including the Russian troll bots?

Hexbear.net is a Russian nationalist instance... They've grown up under Putin's cencorship and state media brainwashing.
