Ah I see.
- Comment on Driving a manual: is it difficult? 1 hour ago:
Well not to be an ass, but why would you drive yourself around? I have the feeling your boyfriend and his family wouldn’t mind driving you around for a bit. And in Europe you don’t generally need a car to get around.
Anyways. Driving manual is not too hard. Just don’t let the stalls bother you. Other drivers don’t really mind either if you stall and waste a bit of time, so just relax. And to be honest; I would actually take the chance to learn it while you can if I were you. Seems like you have a good opportunity here.

Looking foolish? It’s Romania. The only foolish thing to do is to not try.

Trucks don’t have too much to do with it. It’s completely different per car in general. I’ve driven in cars that are almost impossible to stall.

Sorry bud but I’m not going to continue replying to you because of your condescending tone. Are you ok with that?
- Comment on A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them 2 days ago:
Yes I think they should just honor the contracts and make a tiny bit less profit.
They could even just add some sane limits if those were not present yet.

The people operating the company do not deserve to run it. Maybe they should declare bankruptcy and let somebody who will honor the contracts buy it.
Allowing this kind of anti-consumer behaviour just allows them to juggle the company around to get out of contracts.
- Comment on A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them 2 days ago:
Just honor them and take the loss. The new owners did a bad deal. In many countries it would be highly illegal to cancel these contracts while continuing the business. Either liquidate the company or honor the deals. Fuck capitalism.
- Comment on A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them 2 days ago:
I have no idea, but the end users should not get fucked because the new owners didn’t know what they were buying. In many countries it is illegal for the old owners to not let the new owners know of such things.
- Comment on A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them 2 days ago:
That has nothing to do with the end user. In such cases they should sue the original owners.

They will not make anything of it. It’s willful ignorance and they’ll stay silent. Brush this off as propaganda and move on within their delusional filter bubble.

- Comment on The FTC cracks down on an AI content detector that promised 98% accuracy but was only right 53% of the time. 2 weeks ago:
I asked Chatty for a TL;DR:
Western fear of AI comes from a fascist obsession with “owning” ideas. Using AI isn’t a big deal — if students can “cheat,” it’s because courses are badly designed, not because students are inherently dishonest. Most students don’t cheat; the narrative that they do is exaggerated to justify punishing them unfairly. Academia exploits students, charging massive fees while offering poor educational value and using dishonesty accusations to control them. Education should be free and empowering, not a tool for gatekeeping and oppression. The current system betrays the purpose of education and contributes to larger societal decline.
I think you went a bit too far. Most of this is also only accurate for the US.
