Magic Earth is closed source but it claims it respects the users privacy, it uses open street maps and it has decent traffic data for navigation for some countries. It also has the advantage that you can configure it to stick to the original route if you prefer. This is very important for me because sometimes I want to take a scenic route, or just routes I prefer but that are not necessarily the fastest.

at this point in life I think I already saw all the bands I wanted in concert. I think I can afford to boycot these mfs and stick to local concerts that dont use that garbage company.

not really, not everybody has the same destination, but a lot of people need to go in the same direction at a given moment (thats why you are stuck in traffic in this situation).

Im not sure what you mean by socialist countries. But communists countries are more oppresive:

• They have leaders that stay in power for decades. Opposition is often punished.
• There is nor freedom of speech, speaking against the government gets you in jail or worse.
• In some of those countries, people are not allowed to leave the country.

And for the record, I agree that poverty is extremely oppressive as well and we need more socialist reforms in capitalist countries, tax harder the rich, break monopolies, foster more unions and so on, I just dont agree that communism is the magical land you all think it is and the solution to all the problems. Nobody seems to want immigrate to North Korea for a reason.

My feelings? not that I remember. My faith in humanity though…

Dave “I fire people that have sex out of wedlock” Ramsey? Who cares what that religious nut have to say?

better be 40% alcohol or I will bite your hand!

I have to, otherwise I wouldnt listen to music at all…

Where can I find some of that free fuel? Asking for a friend

yeah I remember that guy, I stopped watching his linux channel during the pandemic as soon as he called it “plandemic”. It looks like it just got worst from there.

it seems so, but there is only one way to know if it works.

aaawwww… (closes wallet)

“Yeah our ice is mined in… uh… Greenland. That will be $200”

“Dumbass”

If you are sad because you lost your cat, that means you loved it. So yes, you live, you suffer but you also love. Im sure you made your little friend very happy as it made you and Im sure you gave it a great life that few creatures in this planet can have. If you made such a difference on a living creature, you can do it again. Maybe that is the point of all this.

Tired employees that feel treated as pawns are not more productive? What if we poke them each morning at the door with a stick? That may work. /s

Losing 3 hours of your life per day stuck in traffic, polluting the planet, spending money you dont have in gas and downtown lunches so your colleague can tell you all about the weather and you can assist to the same meetings on video calls with people that are in another country… yay…

Downtowns can become very nice neighborhoods once all those offices and car space are transformed in housing, parks and walkable spaces.

My bad I didnt see that. I like what you wrote, if you are in your last breath, might as well enjoy your last seconds and leave with a smile.

What do I need to do from now, until the day I die, to be the happiest possible?
