The truth about how I am? Because they don’t care. They don’t actually want a long infodump about personal details of my life.

Since I don’t know how well their manipulation works

I do. It works really fucking well. $900 billion per year well.

It’s not luck. Things are built for a reason, the regulations and structures of society are designed, and it artificially dictate s what is built. Perhaps they live in a place where the regulations mean that sensible livable apartments are fairly abundant. Perhaps you don’t. That’s not luck, those places were designed that way.

$180 for a new 4TB USB SSD? Hard drives are becoming pointless.

Look, if we’re inventing hypothetical scenarios, imagine there was a fire truck behind the car. Now the car drivers are clearly the bigger assholes.

Towards the end of the video he addresses the point that the optimum speed of cars is around 60(or I thought it was 70).

This argument doesn’t apply here because that figure is for a car traveling at a constant speed on a straight, flat road with no wind. E.g. a freeway/motorway. In a city, a significant amount of the energy is used to speed up and slow down at intersections.

Remember the kinetic energy formula, Ek=1/2 mv^2 . That tells you that accelerating a car to twice the speed takes 4 times the energy, or in other words it takes 4 times as much fuel to get to 60 as it does to get to 30.

This extra energy to get up to speed is going to far outweigh any benefit from less rolling resistance at 60 compared to 30.

When i worked at the office in my last job, I find it almost impossible to take a decent break.

What is wrong with your labor laws? In my country there’s a mandatory 1 hour break(30 minutes of which is paid) in a full day of work.

It isn’t on a mobile device where you might go out of wifi or cellular coverage. But it’s probably a good thing as I don’t want my tab habit wearing out my disk
