Spain. Posts don't represent any employer 🙄.

Keyboard warrior against certain social injustices. I have neither time, nor energy, nor inclination to fight them all, sorry.

A long time ago I enjoyed breathing the atmosphere at around 320 ppm CO2.

@arstechnica I don't know about US, but in EU we're more worried about apocalyptic climate change that is accelerated by people continuing to burn stuff (including, but not limited to, in internal combustion engine cars) than a few car manufacturers having a hard time because they doggedly stuck to designing and making more shitty petrol, diesel & hybrid cars.

  • Yes, all cars are bad.

@arstechnica As long as those computers continue to interact with me via switches, knobs and buttons, that's OK. What's not OK is swapping in a giant touch screen to replace all those controls for which we develop muscle memory and can soon use without distraction from, erm, driving.
