This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

the EU is already passing legislation to require core functionality isn't hidden behind a touch screen.

good public transit is more likely to happen and I'd put my money on subscription based self driving taxis.

Yeah i have hated it for years My personal car is old and has buttons for everything but still a touch screen if I want it.

My work car is like dealing with an ipad to change the volume etc. It's not safe

You guys have seperate work and personal cars?

Yeah mobile crane mechanic, company pays my fuel and car.

Be fucked if I were to travel around with all my tools in my personal car making someone else rich

Out of curiosity, do you own your tools?

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 13 points 6 months ago

Yeah i own my own tools in Australia most mechanics do.

You need the flexibility to have what you want and need, not relying on what someone else thinks will get the job done
