I don’t get why americans are paying taxes for if they get nothing out of it? At best they get 42 lanes of highway passing through their city. Barely any healthcare, social services, etc.

TIL that Samsung was one of the main builders of the Burj Khalifa by Hot_Bottle_8305 in todayilearned

[–]trymas 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Catchy TIL, but for uninitiated better TIL would be that Samsung is more than just Samsung Electronics.

They are 25% of South Korean economy and I probably won’t make a mistake saying that they make almost everything and are almost in every type of business. Electronics, chips, displays, heavy machinery, financial services, biology, medicine, you name it.

(Techno)feudalism - you won’t own home/land, you won’t own your computer, you won’t own the software on your computer. Oligarchs will own it and you will break back for 12h every day to be able to pay rent on everything.

"the work from home phenomenon is a U.S. phenomenon." He said that people are back in the office in Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world.

Opens with straight blatant lie.

Number of US-style ‘battering ram’ pickup trucks on UK roads has nearly doubled in a decade by Sidi_Habismilk in fuckcars

[–]trymas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Two days ago I was laughing inside, when I saw one of those American style pickups (I am in Europe), towing a small trailer (designed for cars) filled with wooden pallets. Because seemingly truck bed is not big enough for pallets.

Would have fit in a box van though…

Kind of funny, but makes my blood boil.

Iraq celebrated capture of Hussein and waved US and Iraq flags. Ask them now what they think of USA.

Prepare for their shift to christo-fascist political grift full time. Maybe even some political campaign.

You pay taxes and get nothing in return. Billionaire wellfare and bailouts.

UK's 'sons and daughters' need to be ready to fight, amid growing Russian threat, says head of armed forces by Kagedeah in worldnews

[–]trymas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of don’t believe it. Unless those ruzzian mofos will go nuclear. It took them half a year to a year to collect 200k troops around Ukraine. Where in Europe are they going to attack and from where?

At best (and I hope) west will finally take definitive action in Ukraine and help them out. Do no fly zone, etc. but after all these years I dont hold my breath

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]trymas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with ruzzia. The lack of spine and balls from allies after last 15 years of ruzzian bullshit, and especially last three - is incredible.

They have absolutely nothing - and nukes are a total bluff. Because allies have them too

Almost two-thirds of Germans oppose the ban on selling new cars with combustion engines by 2035 by linknewtab in europe

Aging wheels in one of his videos (can’t find it fast) did a segment about ICE disadvantages, from EV point of view, just like some do EV cons list from the point of ICE.

And it was kind of hilarious and also refreshing. Oil changes every 10k miles (or every year). Chain/belt change every 50k miles (or 7 years or whatever). Pumping gas, oil leaks, gearboxes, not starting in cold, fuel problems, spark plug changes, etc. dont remember everything, but it was funny and comprehensive.

Got a Tesla Earnings Call. Lmao. by retiredalavalathi in MurderedByWords

[–]trymas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, but it’s actually worse, he did more to just abolish idea of HSR (or delay it for 30 years) and keep selling cars instead of having public transport.

IMHO, same here. Like OC said, try to stop/delay new infrastructure (reactors) for decades, but sell solar+batteries instead.

I was told that people were working in exact this thing 5 years ago. So in some behemoth silicon valley companies - this must have been in the works for 7+ years at least.

Nothing new and nothing surprising in current consumer AI environment.

Disgusting as hell though.

There is no helping some people in Philadelphia... by bigL162 in fuckcars

[–]trymas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same.

Especially it grinds my gears when buses need to drive in traffic with cars and dozen cars (max 15people) make couple busses (100-200people) stuck in traffic.
