What are u people smoking, cars are awesome.

NYC metro is bankrupt and unmaintained. They can't even build a link to JFK.

I grew up with public transport and now drive the car daily. Car is so much more convenient.

I don't understand what's all the fuss is about. Like it's impossible to haul a lot of groceries in the bus and u have to wait in the cold for the bus to come. And sometimes there are a lot of people and u are like sardines there.

Who knows what they use under the hood but WordPress architecture is horrible

~~Wait wtf. Automattic was sold in a fire sale?
When? Why? How?

They were not making money? I thought they had WordPress.com - that should be making pretty good right? Or paid plugins like jetpack - those gotta be making money.
How did this happen that they got sold in fire sale?~~

Edit oh. Ive read it wrong. Tumblr was sold in a fire sale, okok. Yeah I could see that.

Ya, ran into this one recently. Had to install gcam instead of stock camera on my OnePlus just so I can use alternative gallery. Android is not truly open source project anymore.

And then if u try using alternative roms - half the cameras your phone has and banking apps are not going to work - Google intentionally castrated the functionality like this.

That's the real reason yes. Not sure if hyperloop being underground avoids that problem or one still has to deal with property owners

I wish we had YouTube alternatives other than just political ones (rumble)

Used to recommend?

They are still super weird recommendations for kods. We had to take tablet away from my daughter because allowed shows like sheriff labradore are about constant kidnappings, other shows like about children dying from hunger in the woods and other ones I've seen about giving birth. All observed just this year.
I also didnt like English language muslim religious show that automatically popped up. Like wth bruh
