Brave Little Hitachi Wand

I’m a pretty low skill user admittedly, I only just figured out how to set up Jellyfin on my media server. My situation is pretty simple for now, but if I end up needing a feature I don’t get, I’ll rethink my options.

I used PIA for about two months about half a decade ago. It was pure agony.

I’m enjoying Mullvad.

I should have acknowledged that in my highly rhetorical line of questioning, but are we going to pretend road tax covers the full cost of roads? It’d have to be much higher if it did, and it still wouldn’t cover the environmental cost of runoff and emissions, nor all the squandered space from parking minimums, etc.

These costs always get externalised to a large extent and we pretend we’re doing something normal because moneyed interests have made it the default option. But we’re not.

Why should driving on roads be free? It costs the government money to build and maintain them, and it ain’t cheap to bail out the auto industry whenever needed. And cleaning up the atmosphere isn’t gonna be cheap. Why are the costs of driving mitigated at every level of society instead of just fully funding public transit?

King shit
