Most countries stopped using SMS ages ago. WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram are ubiquitous.

Here in NL, you can get a 9 letter/digit code from the app or website to write (or print) on the envelope. For example:

A 8 F

2 C D

5 P V

I remember how excited I was when I finally got an invite code. Now happily gmail-free for 2 years.

Google Maps and YouTube I can’t avoid but otherwise ungoogling successfully.

Love it!

Cycled a bit in Paris last year and it was nice. Infra is still getting there but drivers are better than here in NL!

This is why you want your own domain, providers aren’t nearly reliable enough…

Why allow someone like this to drive ever again?

The article reports the punishment as 3 years and 10 months of driving ban and 20 months prison. Still not enough obviously…

I see it as my duty to fart into every billionaire bunker air intake I come across.

This is only a problem if the concentration of PFAS in the foam is higher than already in the child.

Otherwise, consumption should actually remove PFAS from the child’s body via osmosis.

When you talk about “pollution” (compared to a shipping vessel) you are only talking about greenhouse gas emissions. This is the exact fallacy that the comic is addressing.

Localised particulate matter pollution will have a much more severe and direct impact on human health. Whether widespread individual car ownership is worth the cancer and microplastic pollution in our bodies is certainly still open for debate. However, this “environmentally friendly car” that you are imagining is a pipe dream.

Humans living fulfilling, individualised lives has been happening for more than just the last century.

Sounds like end-to-end encryption is opt-in. Thus, a default configuration leaves communications unencrypted and vulnerable to eavesdropping.
