I would assume that if you go out of your way to have a company and buy a massive pickup that is more expensive than a Van and less usable you probably do not give a shit. The fact that they can basically ignore BPM on company cars is absolutely stupid.

"[...]you can mock them[...]" is already something that i do not agree with. This could very easily be seen as an insult and in court you would get fucked over. But then again, I am not american. It is illegal to show the middle finger here. Even to objects. Welcome to Germany. I would say that the US still has freedom of speech. Just with a lot of cops that should not be cops at all. My country? No.

Most first world countries do not really have freedom of speech. While the headlines are quite excessive from UK and Australia (for obvious reasons), there are a lot of countries where the simple existence of those laws are never talked about. Denial of the holocaust is illegal in a lot of countries, denial of historic events in a few less, insulting people in a few more.

Getting pulled through the legal system because you showed a middle finger to someone or because you said that some random war crime was not really that bad is a thing that just should not happen. But it is a thing that happened before.

Protests and speech being regulated has the effect of everyone just trying to not get jailed. Even if there are no big headlines about it. And that damage is arguably worse than media coverage, which pulls attention to the issue.

While I agree, all of them required specific amounts of players to play, sometimes you keep friends out, sometimes you had randos who had no idea what they were doing. And really... there were way too few of them. The playtime is not that long of them and they are too linear to be worth replaying. Saints row 3 arguably has better coop. Saints rows story is not built for this, but they just play the cutscenes at the same time and sync the world. Now if rockstar spent 12 days implementing that... The GTA story would be almost perfect to play together IMO. If they bothered to sync things up.

Your statement is not technically wrong, the best kind of not wrong. I saw a lot of games in the past which had some COOP mode which you can technically call COOP, but just has so few things to do that I feel like it was just an excuse to write COOP on the box. Battlefield 3, Far Cry 3 come to mind.

I really hope for a COOP story. GTA V looked like the perfect game for it but that never happened. I really enjoy COOP games with friends because of the general increased hostility in Multiplayer games (or at least I feel like it) and the endless microtransactions, but I feel like there are way too few COOP games...

Love it. More people scared of trusting large corporations will help everyone.

I have a catchall. Sending mails is a bit annoying... I like not having to send a mail because I can easily avoid spam if someone misuses or sells my information because GDPR only hits small people and not the corps that deserve it. While yes, it may be slightly more annoying to create accounts, maybe that is a good thing. Because then you don't create an account at every possible site.

I wouldn’t want to try to do that either. With the political climate in Europe it would be stupid to invest sums into making ICE more efficient or less harmful. Could very well be that in 3-4 years it will be impossible to sell an ICE car because of fuel prices, city bans or whatever. It’s the same reason why the diesel scandal happened in the first place: stupid rules and regulations with even more stupid metrics.

Well, even if you ignore that Firefox is inferior compared to Chromium, Mozilla is not a respectable company anymore in my opinion. So i see 0 reasons to use Firefox. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/we-need-more-than-deplat...

Still all the other points. And i am REALLY not sure if switching from a company that is known to try to not give data to governments to facebook, which makes it's money by analysing and selling data would make a lot of sense.

IRC for me is a way to seek support for OSS projects and nothing else. It is not really designed to be a IM for phones...

No drawbacks? Whatsapp requires your phone to be on and have Whatsapp running in the background if you want to use it over Whatsapp Web. Also the amount of Messages and Media that Telegram delivers to me would not fit on my Phone.

Also let's not forget what a bad user experience Whatsapp offers apart from that. No bots, no channels, no hiding your phone number, no polls, limited permission system in groups,... i could continue for 20 minutes. But what is most infuriating to me is the backup system. It never works and you can only store it in iCloud/Google Drive.

Matrix or IRC if you hate yourself.
