As a Dutchman, I agree we have great infrastructure and “walking” cities. But you’ve only seen Amsterdam. Outside of the cities, The Netherlands is more dependent on cars than you might think. I live on the border of the country and public transport is basically non existent and cycling is not viable due to travel distances, every adult has a car in my area. A family of 4 adults (children over 18 living at home) have 4 cars parked in front of their house here. We’re not as car dependent as the US, but we don’t live in a fairytale either.
Better start now, the US might need a new one soon. /s
A smart contract as the declaration of independence would be awesome though.
EA: hold my beer
For example: in FC25 you can have 14 ms ping to the server, but still have a laggy experience as if you are playing with 1,400,000 ping.
It’s even become mandatory by communities in some games, which is something I hate with passion. For instance, many MMORPG communities are on Discord these days (e.g. Guild Wars 2, more specifically the raiding scene).
So I subscribed to these communities and started using Discord. I still don’t get the appeal, it’s a cluttered mess all over the place and it doesn’t feel intuitive to use. Maybe I’m getting old…
I don’t buy that. I live on the other side of the planet and I know what project 2025 is and its key action points. It’s not just foreign media that were reporting on it. I also watch some US late night shows, especially when a major event like an election is about to happen. Most late night shows also discussed project 2025 at length.
Curious if this argument also works for other situations? “I didn’t file my taxes, because it would take too long”.
Such negative sentiment. Not everything is about rebelling against billionaires you know? Space travel is following the same innovation curve as any other mode of travel. Remember how expensive a car used to be, or flying? Those used to be only for the wealthy, now you can hop on a flight to the other side of the content for less than 100 Euro. It will eventually be the same for space travel. The cost of space cargo is coming down quickly, which will enable us to explore “the final frontier”. I hope I get to experience it in my lifetime and it isn’t really outside the realm of possibility either.
