  • I'd say that it depends on whether you expect them to be there when you return, and/or if your presence is expected in the meantime for whatever reason.

    Just have some situational awareness. Normally it wouldn't be an issue to leave a room to get a soda from the fridge and then return. However if you're in the middle of a timed game or while moving heavy furniture, then it would be rather annoying for the rest of the people if you just suddenly disappear without explanation.

  • It can be sorted quite nicely if you get an organiser division thingy. Even if you're only going to keep one thing in each section, it's nice to have each thing in its own place. The difficulty with that is remembering where it's supposed to be, and that it takes more space.

    A little basket is suitable for keeping most of those things if you simply accept that them being in the same basket is actually the correct placement for them.

  • They don't want to maintain the software for it.

    Also, they simply don't want you to know. Especially if the whole setup is already a patchwork of sensors that barely work together in the first place. It might cause unnecessary questions, concerns or even liabilities.

    A lot of it is useless anyway as long as the car is not broken, and if it is broken, the sensor might be broken too. It's meant for diagnostics only.

  • It's a satirical cartoon, which is an art style by itself.

    Recognizable facial features are exaggerated for comedy and to highlight the uglyness, yet realistic enough to recognize.

    You can tell it's comedy, because the persons don't actuallly look like the hyperbolic cartoon character, but it's still a very personal criticism, because they do have those features, unlike any other person. The name tags in the image are redundant.

    It must be getting more difficult to make with modern celebrities, who already look like satirical figures in real life due to botox, spray tan and fake hair etc.

    Satirical cartoons are important. Even if the political point is blown out of proportion like the drawing itself, it usually shows some truth or at least something that could be true, and thus basically states the lowest common denominator for understanding the actual politics for the reader to relate to and form their own opinion.

    It's sort of "let's play with the worst possible interpretation of actual events".

    Regardless of the person actually being a good or bad politician , there will be satirical cartoons made to critizize them from this "low brow* point of view, that they ought to be able to handle or even admit to and laugh along with. So, it gets even more funny if the targeted person reacts negatively towards it.

  • "Can haul" and "can haul safely" are different.

    She was loading bags of gravel into a Toyota Corolla. Sure, it'll drive, but will it brake?

    If she should crash into something there's also a huge difference in having a heavy passenger wearing a seat belt and loading the back seats with bags of gravel.

  • It's all a show for populistic politics. More people are employed watching the borders than the number of people that they catch at the borders. It's a complete waste of time for both the border police and the EU citizens who legally cross the borders.

    The resources would be much better spend tracking down the undocumented people inside the countries. They could start by looking at the places they work or stay illegally.

  • Nah, it doesn't always make the news. I know of one time where they flew right over my house and there was no mention of it anywhere, so I tell this story every time anyone mentions those "routine" fly overs.

    It was New Year 2019-2020 about noon.

    The MIG came in from the Kattegat coast and roared through a fjord well below reasonable eardeafening altitude, which made me go outside to see what the fuck was going on. It got intercepted by one of our own F-16s and they did a few rounds of dog chasing right above my head before it flew like hell back towards Russia. The fucker must've dodged the Swedes on the way here.

    Way out of line. It's completely reckless to put some kid into a machine like that and have them fly this close to residential areas. Who knows what would've happened and how many people would've been hurt if the idiot had hit a tall antenna or lost control from the g-force or whatever. They were flying low, fast and swirling like moth being chased by a flyswatter.

    The Russians are reckless assholes even in peace.
