- Comment on will i fit in more with china/japan or russia or their communities in terms of acceptance/blending in? 2 hours ago:
what community will accept me more
When seeking personal acceptance, you depend much more on individual persons than on a culture / country.
- Comment on Driving a manual: is it difficult? 1 day ago:
otherwise, I can rent an automatic.
You want to double check whether you actually can do that.
Automatics are actually rare there. The kind of rare that turns heads and raises eyebrows.

It is easier to keep the books than what’s written in them…
- Comment on Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooks 4 days ago:
nonfiction, this could work pretty well.
Only in rare cases.
If you have for example some explanations to a complex topic, then a super emotionless voice would still make you hate it and block you from learning it. Even the most dry and hard topics need some good and alive voice in explanations.
If it is just some reference list, where you need to search and hear small parts of it, then it could be Ok.
- Comment on I’m very good at math and would like health insurance. What is the easiest option? 5 days ago:
I did not say that being rich were the same as getting rich.
I did not say that anyone likes the average.
- Comment on I’m very good at math and would like health insurance. What is the easiest option? 5 days ago:
You can’t have it all.
For example, there are countries that honor human rights very good, 100 times better than Usa for example, and everybody is like a king there. But where everybody is a king, there are no servants. Everybody earns average, with healthcare included, but only basic, and nobody gets rich. Appartement, not house. You have to be organized. You have to clean up yourself etc. and nobody looks after you.
For example, there are countries where you can be rich, and feel special, and have a nice house with several poor servants who take care of all your shit. But you can’t be trans there, and only bad guys are rich there, and you can’t be chronically ill or special needs, and maybe you can’t even originate from Usa.
And then there are countries where you really don’t want to go.
I recommend to get some of your issues solved and become stronger and then think again about moving.
- Comment on if pure water is not conductive why would condensation be an issue for electronics? 5 days ago:
Isn’t it water that basically turned to vapor and then back?
But then things like Whiskey and Gin would not exist…
- Comment on Why is coal and fossil fuels still used? 5 days ago:
I thought with the explosion of electric power
I thought with Solar panels being massively produced
When you are young and you have your first real job and your first good paycheck, you may feel rich. But there’s still a lot more money making the rounds in the world.
Not all of it is in your hands.
The world is so much bigger than you think.
- Comment on If someone is bullied to suicide/threatened to death, and they actually attempt something like that or die, will the person who told them to do so get charged? 6 days ago:
A lot would be needed to make a suicide actually an enforced one. And this is probably very difficult to prove.
OTOH such serious kind of bullying is a crime already. Death threatening as well.
(Maybe not everywhere, but here it is).

Isn’t it one of the fundamentals that everybody has the same right to go to courts?
So, even the idiots must be allowed.

How can it be both Supervised and Full Self-Driving?
It is not all the same.
You are full.
The car is self driving.
Tesla’s interns in India are supervising both you and the car. - Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 1 week ago:

- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I’m not really passionate about anything.
That’s nothing to blame. Many young people need a year more or a few before they know what to do with their lives.
My suggestion is to donate a year of your time to charity. You are going to gain lots of valuable experience, and see some parts of society that you could not have seen otherwise.

- Comment on How would legal procedure change if every citizen eligible for jury duty was aware of jury nullification? 1 week ago:
But I suspect the question you’re really asking is “What if every juror refused to convict in any crime?”
Eventually they would allow jurors to bring their guns…

- Comment on When society completely transitions to cash-less, what happens when the power goes down? End of the world? 2 weeks ago:
So, You are society today. Your chance to turn it into a different society is now.
Treat people as worthy persons. Start building trustful relationships. Make sure they do not want to see you hungry and suffering and begging.
Start with one.
- Comment on When society completely transitions to cash-less, what happens when the power goes down? End of the world? 2 weeks ago:
2 weeks without power
How will you get food and stuff?
You go there where it is, and ask. If they trust you enough to pay it later, ok. Otherwise you beg. And beg more.

One huge condition will be: has your country invested enough in a super reliable infrastructure?
Spain wasn’t bad in this regard (like most western European countries) but that recent event was hardly foreseeable. And they forgot to prepare for the “black start”, which prolonged the problem.
In the future, the grids must become even more reliable and fault tolerant.
Some countries should better increase their invests by magnitudes.
- Comment on Tesla Board Opened Search for a CEO to Succeed Elon Musk 2 weeks ago:
What I am saying is the other way round: The revolution is no revolution anymore, EVs have become normal things. Therefore nobody needs any super special niche products, overpriced but lacking most of the qualities that normal cars have - a.k.a. Teslas, anymore.
