This seems like it would work but I refuse to add more noise pollution to account for breaking the law. Introducing hazards to race tracks is more enjoyable (and very effective, racers rarely want to clean up hazards from the race track because it would mean they’re thinking of someone else). If the police ever gets interested enough to look for the source of hazard their presence should prevent races from taking place too.

It’s not the constant background noise/hum that gets me but the occasional car/bike zooming through the streets to the point where things start to vibrate while also sounding like the most annoying mosquito. Even though I’m almost 40 I can still hear very high frequency sounds (like those devices to scare away animals) and fast vehicles seem to go into similar register. ANC headphones don’t block it well either since they’re tuned for low frequency sounds.

James Holden in The Expanse has a strong moral compass and becomes sort of a folk hero.

My hearing is very sensitive. Over the past couple of years there has been a significant increase of number of motorcycles and street racing in my country. Loads of vehicles are illegally tuned exceed permissible noise pollution norms. Police does fuck all about it. It’s summer so I have to keep windows open at night to cool down my flat. I can’t sleep with ear plugs because they bother me too much. I barely sleep.

China looks to Africa as testing ground for global roll-out of yuan denominated financial instruments*

No, China is not planning to end capital controls.

I’m complaining about the state of things.

I didn’t have to scroll that far lol

reminder: these fascists assholes are not human. they give up all humanity when they actively choose to become or remain within this trump nazi cult. so when we say “nazis are not human” we are not dehumanizing them; they did it to themselves. these fuckwits need prison. all of them.

Get educated on how nazis dehumanised people so that it would make violence possible later before you go around calling people nazis. For a nazi hunter you seem to know little about nazism, or pretend not to because you’re just out for revenge.

It shouldn’t impact us that much, it’s just a different kind of lottery.

If you’re advocating violence against people you arbitrarily deem nazis it doesn’t make you a good guy and you’re likely breaking plenty of laws regardless of jurisdiction. I’m seeing liberals advocating violence against people voting for Trump, that’s pretty dehumanising.

Everything is alleged here, including the claim against Nintendo.

„Everyone’s a little bit like that, right?” :D

When I was being assessed for autism I elaborated on my interests, also revolving around electronics (like retro computing, gaming, programming, automation, open source etc). My assessment came back stating „X’s special interest is electronics.” - it felt so reductive that I almost felt insulted.

His/her story wasn’t really plausible because if it was true parents would be the first to suggest and then do it.

Sell that iPhone and make enough so that your dad doesn’t have to work for the next couple of years.

I don’t believe the reason. The real reason are Grok-generated expletive-filled tirades against PM Donald Tusk. Polish internet is filled with hate speech and current government did nothing about that so far. Current coalition also promised to pass laws to include LGBT folk in hate speech laws but didn’t deliver, as is tradition, too. The only thing politicians care about is themselves.

If you plan to sell it, yes. This is a DYI project.
