  • Even living in a European city with good bike and public transit options, I run into cases where a car is the only logical option.

    Which is why I rent them a few times and year which basically comes down to sharing a handful of cars between a few hundred neighbours. Every single person having one or multiple cars is insanity, especially when you consider traffic conditions.

  • When you talk about “pollution” (compared to a shipping vessel) you are only talking about greenhouse gas emissions. This is the exact fallacy that the comic is addressing.

    Localised particulate matter pollution will have a much more severe and direct impact on human health. Whether widespread individual car ownership is worth the cancer and microplastic pollution in our bodies is certainly still open for debate. However, this “environmentally friendly car” that you are imagining is a pipe dream.

    Humans living fulfilling, individualised lives has been happening for more than just the last century.

  • I don’t know about Adobe but I think it’s true for some software.

    My previous employer (~30 person company) got in trouble for a Fusion360 file that was sent to a customer after being edited by an intern’s pirated copy. Employees and interns typically used a different licensed CAD software.

    I think the pirated file being opened at a larger company tipped them off, but I don’t know how they ultimately tracked us down.

    That being said, I personally wouldn’t want the stress of using pirated software, let alone pirated assets in a professional setting.
