Got milk?
Or the Dutch “Melk is goed voor elk” (“milk is good for anyone”). Same vibe, different era.

Copying the user agent string from the network requests tab obviously makes them a cyber security expert, didn’t you know?

The “normal” forms of protest just don’t cut it anymore. When is the last time you’ve heard about one, let alone seen one? It’s a (relatively) harmless shout for attention for a very dire problem.

How is the consumption of meat not a climate change issue? It produces a fuckton of greenhouse gases, uses an immense amount of water, and is actively contributing to monoculture crops in (for example) the Amazon.

Well, there was the DIN standard for radios back in the day….

Never gets old how most people never care about nutrition until someone vegetarian/vegan shows up. Then they’re protein and/or B12 deficient, and they’ll die for sure!

That’s why you take into account the traffic lights/intersections ahead as well. Works fine over here in NL.

Our car is a little above “a cheap car”, perhaps. But taking into account 4 days on site, you get about 20k km per year (assuming 52 weeks). With maintenance and other costs, including putting money aside for when this car is to be replaced, we reserve about €300 a month. That is including fuel for those 20k km per year. Getting a “traject vrij” (free travel on a certain route) subscription from the railways is, I kid you not, €400 a month. Even more expensive than when I looked last time. 🥲 Edit: forgot to mention you’ll need the bus as well, which is around €2 per ride. Around €70 euros per month extra. Cheaper than getting a discount subscription (€18 per month + €55 in fares) or a total subscription for the bus (€97 per month)

The cost of owning + maintenance + extra fuel was taken into account I’m afraid

Public transport is also increasing in price quite significantly. So expensive, in fact, that it would be cheaper for my girlfriend to go to uni by car (about an hour’s drive) once her free student travel runs out, than it would be to take a discount (!!!) subscription for the route from home to uni by train. Public transport here is good, but it’s suffering from enshittification due to underfunding and sky high prices. It’s a shame. And unfortunately, a 45km one-way bike trip isn’t feasible most days. Not time-wise anyway.
