many parking spaces actually got converted to charging stations. and when building new parts of the city they could’ve taken the demand for parking into account.

i agree that there are too many cars in the cities, but actively taking away parking isn’t how you solve that problem. that just makes people hate your political party.

solving problems like this requires an actual alternative that is as comfortable as a car to use. then people will willingly give up their cars because there is no need.

i don’t like bamboo printers very much, just because of the closed ecosystem. the printers themselves are really good, besides being loud.

i would like to switch to a different CAD program, but i couldn’t figure out freecad for the life of me. fusion is still my go-to.

thangs is my primary hosting site, just because zack freedman started gridfinity on there. and at the time, thingiverse was almost unusable from my perspective. never really tried printables tho.

you are the problem here.

i have and ender 3 pro as well as an ender 3 max. after a PEI coated bed and a second cooling fan, the ender 3 pro curns out the best sub-300€ benchies you’ve ever seen.

a friend of mine has a 3V2, and it has all the mods i would’ve done to a 3 pre-done.

for budget printers like the ender series, it’s a skill issue most of the time. so teach newbies how to use cheap printers, of course it isn’t plug and play. you paid 200€ for it.

i’m really into cars, and want to own (maybe modify) an MR2 1st gen.

problem is: the german government is trying its best to make owning a car impossible or unattractive.

nowadays you have to pay 1.90€ a litre of gas and rent a parking space (the ones that used to be free get converted to charging stations for BEVs or are only for people who live near it)

getting a license has been increasing in cost for a while now, and we’re at the point where it’s up to 5000€ (i have one already, but it’s increasing the barrier of entry)

modifying the cars is also basically illegal, i won’t get into it here though. the comment is long enough.

additionally, the only political party that’s worth voting (in my opinion) is increasingly making cars the national enemy and is trying to introduce a speed limit on the autobahn.

so the frequent occurence is basically incompetent politicians fucking over the consumer, giving right-wingers even more fuel.

yup, noticed that revanced wasn’t working a week ago.

went into revanced manager, patched the recommended version, installed gmscore, done.

suck it youtube, i’m not paying a subscription to watch low effort vtuber edits.

they really are trying to fuck themselves over, aren’t they?

i’m gonna switch as soon as game devs realize linux needs anticheat support.

and i know a lot of people who don’t care what operating system they run as long as they can use their web browser on it.

recently reinstalled win10 pro, located in europe using a local account.

haven’t seen any yet.

FP4 user here. while that is true, any android ROM with google services on it isn’t privacy-focused.

but i don’t want to miss out on clash of clans, so here i am using their bullshit spyware.

you and my dad both. he’s been using it forever

ex-GX user here. i do not miss chrome.

yeah, on android it’s kind of a pain. but being able to use extensions is insanely good.

i’m using a 3070 currently, my next GPU will 100% be AMD.

i played a match and i don’t get it, that game is just boring.

how do people actually play this?

i have colleagues who gush over how they want everyone else to play it.

it’s just so… stale

yup, sadly many of the bands/artists i listen to don’t really offer their music as physicals, but there’s also no way i’m gonna spend 20 bucks on an album just to listen to like 3 of the songs ever.

i have a weird way of listening to music.

my dad has a huge collection of CDs he started in the 80s. and he’s not gonna stop buying every single CD that his favourite bands release.

he rips them onto his ipod and his phone. great way to efficiently own music and get some pretty cool artwork.

so from what i can tell, no one (that i know of) buys CDs to play them out of a playback device, just to own your library.

some bands, and their fans. you can make a cassette look pretty dope.

and i’ve heard prisoners often only have access to cassettes.

they’ll send you a replacement, but they take weeks to reply

i second getting a fairphone, but look into a second battery or a power bank for heavy use.

Fairphone 4 user here, i love it. but ghost touch keeps coming back, i’m on my second screen now.
