I'm from Europe and I already met one in my hometown. The other day, it even damaged scaffolding on the Powder Gate in Prague, while it was, hilariously, riding on the bed of a tow truck.

Edit: The individual approval itself is already highly controversial: https://www.wired.com/story/a-rubberized-cybertruck-is-ploughing-through-european-pedestrian-safety-rules/

Wait, that's a photo? I thought it was a stylized rendering at first. The colors are almost vaporwave.

So who are the good guys, mind you telling? As far as I'm aware, currently it's a choice between Chromium based browsers and Firefox and its forks. So really just 2 options in the grand scheme of things.

Same here, I liked seasons 1-3 better than books 1-3 but books 4-6 better than seasons 4-6. And then there's the amazing books 7-9 which sadly didn't get adapted at all.

Are you suggesting that Trump is a supe with superhuman healing abilities?

But I mean, it's the same thing as this FB/IG case, no? Only worse because even if you pay, you still have ads.

The biggest Czech website (Seznam.cz) recently changed their policy and now force you to choose between: free tier with personalised ads or paid tier with anonymous ads. Yes, you're reading it right, even if you pay, it doesn't get rid of ads, they just stop tracking you. I have no idea whether it's legal but the EU should definitely take a look.

Edit: Ok, I think they only offer you this choice when you're using an account. I tried it in a private tab and it seems I can decline personalized ads there. Does that make it legal? If yes, then they're some sneaky bastards.
