I'm not sure what most of this means or how it could affect me, but you're saying that as an EU citizen, this is not something I should be overly concerned with?

I guess you write a bunch of gibberish, press execute and hope something happens?

I've seen your and other similar comments getting a lot of downvotes. Are people suggesting it's acceptable innocent people have to fear for their and their family's safety, because they choose to uphold the law?

It's funny you mention echo chambers because most of what I've seen here is just that.

You can't go into a community and disagree with something without getting downvoted into oblivion. The hivemind here is the same as it is on Reddit, the difference being is that more people are left-leaning on the political spectrum, but hivemind nonetheless.

I'm not disagreeing with you or most people here for being annoyed by everything being build around car usage. I just don't see it realistically change. You'd have to rebuild most cities from the ground up and invest ungodly amounts of money into several modes of public transport in every city. It just won't happen.

I've had to use public transport to get to a job I loved in a neighbouring city, due to not having a car at that point. Where a drive with the car would have taken me about 20 minutes one way, the bus+train combo I was forced to use was 1,5 hours including waiting times. It was so draining that I quit that job after 6 months.

If this is the choice you need to make, people will take that car every time because you can't rely on jobs being available within 20 minutes of walking or public transport, most cities aren't build to offer jobs+housing+shopping within a small radius for all the people living there.

I live in Scandinavia, in one of these walkable cities. Everyone has a car. Why? Because relying on public transport or walking/biking everywhere is not practical. It's just reality.

We have seen your previous pledges, we all know these are hollow promises.

I've been cleaning up my home office and found 2 pretty old smartphones in a box, around 10 years old I'd say. I don't have any old chargers to check if they still work so I'm unsure what sort of data is on there, if any, or if they still charge up even.

What are the chances I can safely dispose of them at a recycling center, without risk of anyone trying to check into the phone? None of them can have the battery removed so I don't want to just smash them with a hammer.

I'm in the same boat. I like it but unlike Reddit, I feel like closing the app after 10 minutes of scrolling because I either keep seeing the same posts or the posts have no comments to interact with.

Commenting here because I can't upvote twice. As usual, it's the religious nutcases again that believe we should live according to a fairy tale written 2000 years ago...

Hands down best race of the season. And all it took was for RedBull to not be around.

Basically as the title states, I can't create a post no matter what I try (I'm making this one without issue in Jerboa) and just get a message that says "coming soon" as if it's some feature I don't have?

Edit: getting downvoated into oblivion for asking a genuine question - feels like I never left Reddit.
