Pons_Aelius, 3 months ago (edited 3 months ago) to asklemmy in What do you think of Gordon Ramsay, his shows, his recipes and the way he is ? Exactly. In the UK version he was not an angry, shouty cunt. That was added for the US show. It's as if people think The Rock was actually the heel he played in WWE or Anthony Hopkins is actually a cannibal who kills and eats people.

It must be awful to live in a place where scientific study into human well being is political. It sounds like some undeveloped country where you can't drink the tap water.

I am not in the EU but a 5 second search leads to: https://www.euroncap.com/en/results/porsche/cayenne/29116 plus dozens of other links for the other models. As others have said, the cyberwank fails in so many other areas it won't even get to the crash test stage as its design is so flawed.

Pons_Aelius, 3 months ago (edited 3 months ago) to asklemmy in What's your opinion about the future of cryptocurrencies? you seem to think about cryptocurrencies like gold as well; an investment. because that is what it actually is used for. My question was about the future of them as a normal currency That is dead and burred. The one thing a currency needs is a relatively stable value, otherwise it is useless as a medium of exchange...ie: money. While crypto is as stable as that bear that ate a couple of kg of cocaine. I think of it as a ponzi scheme because that us what it has become.
