Depends who you think of when you say status quo. I'd say the left is popular in many urban areas (radical left in modest neighborhoods and environmentalist/social-democrats for the rest), but the far rights reaps almost every rural area.

There's no need for that, unless parts of the US want independence, like some Scots regarding the UK. But break it all up because it's too messy, not healthy? That's what critics of the EU or the UN also say. Myself I've always been an advocate of unity and collaboration since it's the only way we're gonna be able to solve climate change and every other major world crisis.

If it's just for joy riding it's fine then. I'm more critical of valley roads where there is a lot of traffic. It's not because cars have reigned supreme there for decades there that we shouldn't adapt the infrastructure for bikes. It's a lot of work for sure. But it's sustainable development.

It's not that us outsiders like to watch your elections closely. But we need to since they're gonna have a big impact on the world we live in, whether we like to admit it or not.

I'd prefer a separate road for bicycles but it's nice to be value as a cyclist nonetheless

I think the post referred to Greece

There is a great video about the Great Filter by Kurzgesagt/In a Nut Shell. If I remember correctly, in it they say we can guess at which stage the filter is by how evolved extraterrestrial life forms are. So it's actually great if we find a lot of bacteria or other primitive life forms, that would mean we probably already have overcome the Geat Filter on Earth. On the other hand, if we find many alien ruins of several civilizations at or above our technological level... Well, our greatest challenge might be coming.

Syncthing is great to periodically sync files between Linux and Android. And you could use it as file transfer service for occasional needs if you just share an empty directory.

Ah ouais une semaine pour déposer les listes !? Il abuse Macron quand même. Il avait le choix entre 2 ou 4 semaines après la dissolution pour le 1er tour il me semble. Sans oublier le choix de pas offrir Matignon à Marine mais bon...

Vues les nombreux tâcles de Roussel aux autres partis de gauche et envers la NUPES (plus que la moyenne des représentants de cesdits partis en tout cas), je me suis dit que c'était pas la peine de mentionner le PCF. Dommage, ils ont des bonne idées aux PCF, pour certain·es.

You're right, these are very good arguments. I'm just too biased towards bikes, so I become overly critical of microcars. The two are complementary modes of transport, for sure. Still, a compulsory driving license for microcars should be standard around the world.

I'm not really fond of microcars. Every time I see one I'm like: "Just buy a bike it's cheaper and it doesn't look like a motorized dumpster!". Not to mention that to drive one in France you don't even need a driving license. Talk about a security hazard... My thinking is they're a lot pricier than great top of the line E-bikes (hydraulic breaks and the whole shebang), you can carry as much as a cargo bike and for the rain, a waterproof coat and pants work just fine (tropical regions get a pass I guess).
