This would be a good time to remember that horse armor that caused a shit storm for fishing like 5$ or something. Good times.

The signs below the speed limit (probably, cause pixels) say "bei Nässe", which means "only when wet". So assuming this is an Autobahn, and it does look like one, it's probably fine.

Shame it's an SUV or something even larger.

That thumbnail alone means "no, thanks".

What are you people doing to your phones? Since smartphones started being a thing I haven't cracked a single screen, and yes I do drop them. Not daily, but it happens. Not onto concrete from the 4th floor either.

Or: Maybe spend more than 100$ on a phone and it'll actually be fine, cause it isn't shit?

That story is genuinely hilarious. And from the judges summary judgement it really does sound like the license holder of the disputed songs did some legal juggling just to be able to play the victim and sue Spotify. What an odd business plan...

That's not actually a solution when talking single-use either. Remaking the bottles from recycled glass is incredibly energy intensive and not an environmentally friendly process either. Multi-use bottles are much better, but the cleaning required also isn't that simple and also relatively energy intensive (far from remaking the bottles of course).

There's also practical downsides to glass (heavy, breakable), but those are subjective and their relevance highly depends on the use case.

Ideally, we wouldn't buy stuff to drink in any kind of bottle, but just use tap water. possibly just buy some concentrated stuff to then make your actual drink at home. Nothing beats the effectiveness of transporting water through a simple pipe, but that isn't even possible everywhere in the world due to drinking water quality issues...

You might want to actually read the article, cause that's completely missing the point of the program, and ignoring all context. As with all things, context matters.

It's a free market though. You can just buy from the wonderful companies that are Dell or Lenovo instead. Don't try to look to closely at them, or you won't be able to but a laptop ever again.

It isn't a Microsoft issue in the first place. Doesn't mean switching to alternatives isn't a good idea, but this one isn't on them for a change.

Because there are laws that specify when the brake light has to come on, and it isn't when the car shows down (slightly). You could be starting to go up hill, or a list of other reasons. The point of brake lights isn't too signify the car slowing, but that the driver intends to slow down. Which is also why it doesn't come on if you're motor breaking" (is that the right term?).

This obviously varies wildly depending on where you are in the world. I'm also sure there are some places where it would be allowed.

The point is to avoid left turns when merging onto or leaving from the smaller road above. Keeps the traffic on it flowing.

Just pop a non-glare screen protector on it, and it's fine. It's like a 5-10 $ problem.

People buying a twice as expensive model for a slightly different screen surface are just insane if you ask me. You can also install a proper 512gig SSD for like 60€ or so to get even on storage, also takes 5 minutes.
