  • People are becoming more conscious of stuff plenty of us have been aware for quite some time already. The idea that a browser made by a corporation who harvests your data for the purpose of advertising doesn’t give a shit about privacy and will try to block adblockers is not something some people weren’t expecting - but normies are getting this shoved in their face with YouTube giving them the anti-adblock notification.

    Firefox (and it’s clones) is basically the only other choice - all the other (major) browsers (that aren’t Safari) are based on Chromium, which is developed by Google.




  • Traffic jams and cost. You can’t be this stupid, can you? I literally pointed out buses take up less space and use less energy. Why ask your question as if I hadn’t pointed out the negatives of your solution compared to buses (or other public transit vehicles).

    Also, it’s not quiter or cleaner, since more cars = more noise compared to one bus (you can’t consider the vehicle without considering it’s capacity), and you generate a lot more pollution (rubber tires produce a lot of particles, and you have more vehicles and more tires with taxis). So stop lying.

    The reason people in cities with proper transportation don’t worry that much about getting a bus directly to their destination is that the network is comprehensive enough to cover all manner of trips, from any one point in the city to another. Same with frequency, if it’s arriving in less than 5-10 minutes it doesn’t matter when exactly it arrives.
