Proton includes cloud storage and recently started supporting automatic backup of pictures on your phone.

Isn't rayon just cellulose? Maybe it's just labeled differently.

Or, here's a crazy idea, for the one week each year where you actually need the range you rent a Honda Civic and leave your EV at home.

This idea that nobody on the internet is willing to pay for anything is outdated. Most people know that if it's not money, they're paying in data, time and/or attention. I much prefer paying with money, as do most people that use Proton, Kagi and other paid alternatives to free Google products.

The video responds much better than I could. But in short, Gary doesn't believe the housing prices to fall until the rich are taxed more. So get in soon if you can, it's only going to get worse.

Might be wrong, who knows. I'm not able to buy a house currently anyways so I'd have to wait either way.

Recently watched this interesting Gary Stevenson interview.

Not very optimistic but might give you some ideas.

Tl;dr: do everything you can to buy a house and get the rich taxed (much) more.

Depends on altitude really. If you're higher up it's freezing meltwater, which might have a non-zero chance of containing disease carriers but it's probably extremely unlikely.

Yup, really wanted ANC ones for on the train and very happy with my €50 Edifiers. Sound fine and the ANC is good. Watched tons of reviews on XM5s and Bose QCs which only seem to offer meaningless improvements.

I do also own good cans and DAC for when I'm at home, but paying over €300 euros for something you'll only use in noisy environments and fussing over audio quality you won't be able to optimally enjoy anyways is silly.

and it's not like anyone watches anyone else.

Unfortunately some people are creeps. The University of Toronto had to partially reverse their all-gender shower policy shortly after implementing it.

After the policy was instituted in 2015, several female students of the University of Toronto’s University College began noticing that someone was attempting to record them in dormitory bathrooms by holding a smartphone over the top of shower stalls they were occupying.

The more I learn about nuclear the less it makes sense. It's a great source of energy but it's complex and expensive to maintain. Solar, wind, hydro and geothermal are simple and becoming cheaper by the day. It's hard to imagine a scenario in which we ever require more energy than those combined could provide.
