Owning a car if you need one is not in itself a problem. "fuckcars" isn't about blindly hating cars, it's about being aware that cars are inefficient, dangerous, and bad for people's health. It's about raising awareness about how car-centric and car-dependent society has become, despite there being better ways to structure transportation.

It is. :) It actually started way back when I was still in school. I suffered from pretty severe depression, but being a teenager I thought I had to deal with it by myself and I didn't talk to my parents. Instead, I would skip school, take my bike and just ride off into the forest and just read all day.
Back then it was classic escapism, really.
I'm mostly better now, was in therapy for a bit and while I still have some bad days, the habit of doing this to hide away from the world has morphed into something I do just because I love it, not to get away from something.
Im Vergleich zu bisherigen Berechnungen gehen die Autoren von einer Steigerung zwischen 10 und 40 Prozent aus. Diese könnten sogar noch höher ausfallen, wenn die generativen KIs direkt in Software integriert werden würde. Dadurch stünde mehr Arbeitszeit zur Verfügung, die für andere Aufgaben genutzt werden könne.
Ich hasse den Kapitalismus. Statt die höhere Produktivität als Grund zu sehen, die Arbeitszeiten bei gleicher Bezahlung zu reduzieren, geht es ausschließlich darum, die gewonnene Zeit "für andere Aufgaben" zu nutzen.
Jedes Jahr steigt die Anzahl der Burnouts, gefühlt jeder hat Depressionen, aber Hauptsache die Profite steigen weiter, alles andere ist egal.
We're going to have to actually read official documentation instead of relying on some greybeard's wisdom on SO 🥲
Turns out you are siblings
This looks pretty good, and I wouldn't mind paying for search, but it seems really pricy. I've never counted how many searches I do, but it's definitely more than 10 a day. $10 a month seems like a lot for just search...
I started doing this two years ago, mostly because I couldn't justify the emissions from flying just to go on holiday and looked for a more local alternative, but I've grown to really love the freedom and flexibility bikepacking gives.
My previous trips have always been in summer or early fall and my gear was oriented around that. I wasn't really expecting the cold nights and strong winds of the Danish coast (especially since May last year was way hotter than this year) and just froze my balls off at night. I did it for two nights because I still appreciated the greater flexibility of just pitching a tent whenever I wanted, but on the third night I just gave in and booked an AirBnB.
It was still a super fun trip, though!
I rode Kopenhagen -> Berlin in May (started as bikepacking, but it was colder than I expected, and I didn't really have the right gear, so I switched to staying in BnBs for the last 2 days).
I don't have any concrete plans for other longer tours right now. I'll probably do the Altmühl Cycle Route over a long weekend, though. It's pretty close to where I live, so I can just take regional trains to the starting point and back home at the destination.
Unrelated to the article, but I've never heard of defector before, and I spend the last hour crawling through and reading a couple articles. Seems like a fantastic little site (and apparently worker owned?). I don't care much about most of the sports articles, but the other stuff is great. Thanks for posting!
On weekdays, mostly in bed before going to sleep.
On the weekends, I do longer bike rides and take my E-Reader. I listen to audiobooks while riding and then stop at a nice spot in the shade and just read for an hour or two before I move on to the next spot or ride back home.
I don't disagree, but there are ways to use color without making everything shiny. If everything pops, nothing does, and for me personally that just felt like a little much.
Obviously this might just be the trailer and we'll have to wait and see what it actually looks like, but to me it feels a little like they're trying to make up for poor texture quality by making everything 50% brighter and more saturated.
We're not some kind of cult setting rules for how people should live. If you need a car, buy a car, if you want to own some kind of ridiculous lifted truck, you can do that, but I'll reserve the right to make fun of you and think you're an asshole.
