I’m not a car expert, but from my perspective everything that has microchips increases the burden for DIY as you need special hardware and software to pair, program, reset that stuff. In case of tires I already had the case that I had to go to another car repair shop, because the one I usually go to didn’t have the right device to reset the sensor and pair it again with the car.
you can change the tires of your choice
Not if they have integrated pressure sensors.
If I buy a car I can change the lights, swap out the engine, do whatever I want with it, it’s mine, I own it.
I’d argue that modern cars behave very similar to DRM-protected games.
Spotify doesn’t even have that much net worth how the hell one can steal more than that anyway?
Because it was stolen already. By Anna’s archive. Isn’t that obvious!?

If they were really near, then two combined should be enough to end it, no?
Good point, thanks for bringing that up. But I still think that recent developments, especially drones, would lead to very high losses in a real conflict. Also I’m not sure how supply chains would work in case of an intra US conflict. Wouldn’t they run out of ammo immediately?
That only applies if they fight with equal weapons. In a violent conflict, a government might use armored vehicles, tear gas, drones etc. I don’t think the risk would be equal for both sides.
That’s also why I think that the second amendmend is pointless in today’s world. If it ever comes to a wider conflict between the general public and the government it’s not guns against guns. It’s guns against high-tech weapons.

Just a regular German word. Please keep walking, nothing to see here.
I consider myself pretty left (at least in comparison to the average German), but that lifestyle sounds quite tempting to me. I’d skip chicken though.
Next question is what happened that made one ‘a piece of shit beforehand’.
From a philosophical perspective, I find it quite difficult to measure a person’s evilness objectively.
Assuming a person is born evil due to their genetic material, is it then actually their fault? Shouldn’t that be considered rather as a medical condition?
Assuming a person is not born evil, but they turned evil due to outer influencing factors (parents, society, economic situation, luck, bad luck…), is it then actually their fault? Or are the outer factors the ones to blame in such a case?
I agree to the ‘the crack was always there’ statement. But personally I think that all of us humans naturally have this crack. Given the right parameters, this crack can heal to a level where it’s barely notable. But under less optimal conditions I guess more or less every human can turn (be turned) into a monster.
In terms of billionaires my opinion is that a) we should implement measures to avoid them in the first place and b) find ways to take away their power.
But other than that I would prefer a way to heal their (often abnormal) crack and try to make them again valuable members of society again. Revenge and punishment (especially death penalty) should never be the focus of corrective measures, no matter the crime or misdemeanour.
I think the unfortunate truth is that many non-evil people would be just as evil if given the opportunity. Or to frame it slightly different: I believe that too much money and/or power is what turns most people evil over time.
The Lemmy picture is blue/black for me while Wikipedia is white/gold. Is it the same picture? Or is because Lemmy fully supports dark mode while my browser doesn’t?
It’s still there, give it another go. ;)
You should add the local weather forecast, a random fun fact and the canteen menu of the day to the key to make it more interesting to read.

No source will be ever completely free of a bias, but Wikipedia is still way more reputable than the two sources linked here.
Wikipedia has plenty of critical articles on what Israel is doing / has been doing in the past: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_war_crimes
Looking at… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_East_Monitor … that source also doesn’t seem too objective to me TBH.
Again: I’m not saying that the original article is wrong. I just say that claims by any news outlet that a) isn’t too popular or b) that has a strong and well-documented bias in one direction must be questioned until proven right.
And MEMO, according to Wikipedia, has a long history of pro Hamas propaganda back until 2009, long before the current war even started.
If the groups are based on gender as written by OP, I wouldn’t see any issue for trans people to participate in these groups.
