I thought cops wearing chainmail was ridiculous, but maybe London police should have something like this:

Technically you can't call it "Android" without paying Google for certification and play store/gapps license. It's AOSP.

You'd be surprised how many companies ignore GPL. Providing broken links to the source code tarballs, telling you to send an email request to get the code then proceed to ignore the requests, etc. Only the most famous case got sued, the rest simply got away with it.

I imagine cops would forcibly remove homeless tents near nice neighborhoods, which is usually where schools are located.

Everything will cost so much less that Universal Basic Income wouldn’t need to be anywhere near as high as it is right now to be “living wage”.

Assuming companies would pass the saving to their customers, which is usually not the case these days.

When self-driving cars finally become a reality (working reliably on any condition without constant supervision), I suspect many people would skip buying house and buy these cars instead because it'll be so much cheaper. After work, you hop into your car and take a nap, then wake up in a diner's parking lot. Go back to the car again after eating to sleep, and wake up in the morning already in your office's parking lot. Basically homeless but never need to worry about cop because the car constantly moves while you're sleeping, making circuit around the city until it finally take you back to your office's parking lot.

Google Reader was the best. Not sure why Google killed it, but it was really good at both content discovery and keeping up with sites you're interested in. I tried several alternatives but nothing came close, so I gave up and hung out more on forums / link aggregators like slashdot, hacker news, reddit and now lemmy for content discovery. I'm also interested to hear what others use.

You can always install an EV conversion kit to old cars.

Mullvad is going to sell subscriptions to both sides, right? Assuming Sweden is going to be neutral again during WW3.

Or perhaps not because Sweden just joined NATO last month.

How long would it take for an average guy to learn Chinese without actually living in China or near a Chinese diaspora?
