Isn't the used car market much bigger than the new car market? Afaik in Germany the biggest part of new cars is sold to companies that give it to their employees and after a couple of years they sell it and that's when most other people would buy that car - I think it's time for countries to incentivize early adopters to sell their electric vehicle for a newer model and create that kind of used car market.

Not sure how it works in the us but here the group of people actually buying fabric new cars is rather small compared to the amount of cars in circulation and the trick is getting them to sell their car every couple of years

One of the reasons is probably the same why Tesla isn't releasing their Cybertruck outside of the us - the Crash-Tests there just don't factor in pedestrian survival rates if they are hit by the car that you want to release on the market. Most of those giant trucks don't make it here because they'd just run over any pedestrian they hit without them having any chance of survival even at low speeds.

Add to that the totally car-centered infrastructure that basically punishes everyone not in a car and you have the perfect storm for dead pedestrians and bikers...

Do Bosch tools not exist outside of Germany? Here the professional (blue) line is pretty much on par with hilti and Makita in terms of quality if not better depending on the type of tool

Just because it's the same doesn't make it worse though - so it definitely is up there with the best game soundtracks of games from this year

It's always easier to put the blame on someone else and not change anything than to accept that you might have a tiny part to play in the solution, too

Why is the guardian doing such a shitty headline?

The problem is that with that kind of budget you could improve a lot more traditional trains

It's really just hyperloop 2.0 in order to not improve the classic public transportation

I always assumed incognito was just disabling history and cookies.

They do care but for the wrong reason (because it's costing them votes) - so their solution is copying right-wing positions in an attempt to win back voters when that's only normalizing their viewpoints

Let's see where the "bUt ChInA1!1!" People move the goalpost next to not have to change

 

So now that the teams going to the finals are confirmed: who on here is going to Düsseldorf (from where) and who are you cheering for?
