For 58€ a month I can ride on almost any public transport anywhere in Germany. Within a 15 minute walk from my house I can access 4 S Bahn lines, 3 UBahn lines, regional trains (I honestly don’t even know how many of those), 3 tram lines and at least 4 city bus lines (probably more).
Will the absence of robotaxis in Europe mark the moment its citizens notice how far their continent has fallen behind?

FYI for anyone looking only at my posts here: yes, everything is absolutely fucked in the USA right now. I see that, and I am doing what little I can to deal with that, although not posting about it anywhere. My post history may feel contrary to that, but reality is a little different.

@timesnewboman.com Having watched your back catalog on @nebula.tv and with the 2025 F1 season having started up today, how about a video about your thoughts on the recent (a few years ago now) F1 rebrand? Personally, I hate it, but the previous branding, while better, was not spectacular. Thoughts?
