My dog herds my chickens. It’s not really useful, but at least all of them get some workout I guess.

I’ve driven a diesel Renault for 12 years (loke 300k km) and didn’t need to replace any of those. The only big unplanned cost I had was a faulty EGR valve, which happened at 600km and wasn’t warranty for some reason.

That said regular oil change for clutch and brakes were mildly expensive, but I guess even for EV you’d want the brake hydraulics replaced the same way.

Edit : just spotted filters. Yeah I replaced every filter every service, but with how grimy they look, even in EV I’d argue for replacing them.

Transmetropolitan, though I have a hard time deciding whether is it the style or the characters. Probably both.

Knights of Sidonia was drawn by an architect. Definitely shows - thel background / landscape shots are quite ridiculously good and give you the scope a lot of comics tend to miss.

Almost all cities in Hungary voted people affiliated with fidesz, despite all the crap this party is doing. At some point we need to start holding people accountable - and I say that as a hungarian living in hungary.

These idiots (=people living in those cities) voted for Orbán’s party at the election nevertheless. Hungary is a special kind of quagmire.

More like “Did I really lock my front door?”

Ah yes, I forgot we’re doing the echo chamber thing here as well.

Eh, it’s not to say it’s a worthy endeavour for them. But Putin doesn’t care about the dead, and there are very few signs that even the russian society at large does.

Russia may well go through another collapse after this, but that doesn’t mean they won’t cling on long enough to cripple Ukraine and/or annex parts of it. That is my concern.

Remember: Karelia still belongs to Russia, and the winter war wasn’t any less bloody for them.

Advances on land are definitely not a be-all/end-all kind of thing, but rather a metric in terms of current force ratio. If Ukraine had enough troops and supply of weapons, they wouldn’t have to give up ground. The current supply they receive is insufficient so they have to yield ground though. It’s a symptom.

Unless russia starts running out of either manpower or war supplies before Ukraine does, they are not in danger of losing. And as unpopular this opinion might be, with the current level (=limited in number and scope of use) of support Ukraine is getting, it’s far from decided that russian war effort collapses first.

Russia is still very much advancing in Kursk and Ukraine right now, it doesn’t matter if their economy is going to break five years from now.

Good artists copy, great artists steal

Given the murders happened on the 1930s, the culprit is probably dead now one way or the other.

GET OUT OF HERE, STALKER!

Well yeah, that is true. Security and convenience are usually at odds… MFA has place, unless you don’t mind some guy from russia access your online bank account ; but I definitely wouldn’t use it on all my accounts.

That’s between platforms though. I like my stuff self-managed. Unless it provenly works with full offline solutions I’ll remain sceptical.

If the passkeys aren’t managed by your devices fully offline then you’re just deeper into being hostage to a corporation.

Masking tape is a conspiracy

Soon smartglasses will look like regular glasses though. Miniaturisation isn’t about to stop.

Turn based RPGs ain’t doing that bad. I mean, BG3 was the hype in the last year or so…
