The fastest I drove was 262 km/h on the German highway (which has sections without a speed limit). At this speed, you have to watch as far as you can, because a car on the left lane overtaking other lanes will usually be at most 180 km/h there, so you have to be prepared to slow down a very long time in advance.
300 km/h is just dangerous, you have to be fully concentrated to adapt to the other drivers and it leaves a very thin margin to react (if any), should something happen. You definitely put your life and the one from others around you one the line doing that.
My experience wasn’t particularly pleasant, but it was nice to feel once how the car behaves at its maximum rated speed. I haven’t done it again. But I’ll regularly drive above 160 km/h to just go with the flow.
oh no this one will need 2 loo-breaks
i bought Wipr 2 a few months ago and i’m really happy with it, it’s regularly updated
anyone born after 2000 is young in my book.
it takes a special kind of person to work for Lum💧n. Leave your sensitivity, common sense and empathy in your car before entering the building.
cases of this happening is plastered all over the news, my point is that you will have to be extra careful, be informed of your rights, look up for legal representation early.
At this point, they might ask for that legal visa proof, take it away from you and do as if it never existed. Good luck!
Block and move on, no well-intentioned person would say that.
edit: it reminds me of this hilarious sketch on the French youtube channel Golden Moustache, english subtitles available
oh yeah that does sound like a hassle, just like headphones, one size/shape does indeed not fit all
no problem in our household :)
btw, flushing will make droplets of what’s in the toilet bowl airborne, so i always put the lid down at the time of flushing. That’s the default state of our toilet
Don't look up
has a pretty accurate depiction of what the billionaires will be able to achieve when the end of the world comes.
And the series Mr. Robot
did very well by showing realistic software and hardware all along.
if it’s open source, you can definitely have someone copy that code, make the change you want and use that modified version.
if you wish to redistribute the modified version, some rules will apply depending on the type of licensing of the original program.
if you wish your changes to be integrated to the “official” version of the program, that’s a bit more difficult, as this change would have to be accepted by the owner of the code repository, it needs to fit the code quality, planned features implementation, pass the tests, and that people involved have time for and interest in your changes.
someone tried that with their license plate, it turned out well: https://www.wired.com/story/null-license-plate-landed-one-hacker-ticket-hell/

Mostly if you find an attached GitHub repository to the software, you can have a bit more trust in it than otherwise, it means that the developer is putting their cards on the table and not trying to hide something nefarious. Of course there are caveats to this but it’s a good start.

I see absolutely no problem, the process of interviewing for a company goes both ways: for them to see if you would be a good fit for their open position, and for you to evaluate if what they offer is right for you.
No contract have been signed, you are free to revoke any appointment. Be courteous, let them know you have made a decision not to pursue this venture and that will be enough.
I love when there are solutions for every weird use case ^^
i rinse everything that goes to recycling because it could be a while until i get around bringing them to the collection area and i don’t want my place to attract flies and other critters, or leak sticky stuff in my bin
