it is similar here in czechia, at least in theory, but the theory will always differ from real life.

you first have to know there is a camera to identify the problem, then if you are in doubt… i don’t know, sue them to prove that camera does not capture your property?

it would take few years, because the justice system here works on geological scales. and before you would get any reasonable result, billion other cameras would pop up meantime.

they put that money into some kind of Klarna Wallet or whatever, by default, instead of in my bank account where the money originally came from.

thank you for the tip

break it and be recorded on their camera breaking it. that will end well.

all you had to do was reach second sentence of their comment and you wouldn’t have to assume.

the problem with these fucking things is that you can’t really opt out. even if you don’t buy your own, some neighbours will happily buy and install the big brother to watch you from their porch and there is very little you can do about it.

same as you can’t really escape the google, even if you don’t use single one of their service, there is always the other part to any communication you are having…

wtf, how is that legal? if someone is obligated to pay you some refund, how can they send it to some other private business instead?

thank you

or it might be the bot

bot who joined 3 hours ago. spamming the comics community seems to be the laziest version of pretending activity.

You’re either living a very sheltered life

if i were, i might believe that this is true:

Drivers are out there trying to kill us, because they saw some cyclists ran a red light. Doesn’t even have to be the same cyclists, just kill a random one, get a slap on the wrist, and go on with life. And 99% of people are happy with that outcome.

since i have actually been outside few times, i know you are just delusional. go get help, for your own good.

if that is what you truly believe, i suggest you talk to a therapist, because this level of paranoia is not normal.

I will not give up.

you will not give up what? shouting nonsense on the internet? 😂

then all that means is that you don’t matter enough

yeah, i am not so important that few thousand people would change their habits to accommodate me. when you outgrow kindergarten, you will find out that neither are you.

it is not that funny how you can’t read.

people wearing religious icons are being made fun of for their flaws, it is just they are different flaws from a cyclists. in one case it is religious fundamentalism, in the other one it is cyclist’s fundamentalism.

how does cyclist fundamentalism manifests you ask? when someone points out that a cyclist broke a traffic rule, you start seing red, you try to deflect with “but cars…”, and you engage in half day discussion where you are trying to prove a point but you are making circles without any logic to your arguments.

oh, yes, i misread that part. so it is basically password that was on post it note somewhere in your drawer for who knows how long? well that is safe.

if they are sending you random code, through email or sms, that is 1fa authentication that can be intercepted - through some malware in your computer or phone and it directly beats the purpose of having 2fa.

cool soundbite for your edgelords’ meeting.

in real life, most people live in a society and engage in some communities, these have some means of communication and since it’s 21st century, they are usually digital. and these communities are not centered around you and few dozens/hundreds/thousands people are not going to leave the tool they all know and switch to another tool just because you told them to.

if i lose access to my school’s discord, my ability to communicate with my schoolmates and ask for a help or information on anything school related is going to be significantly crippled, to the point where i am not going to do that.

if you are some asocial hermit living in a basement, who cares about neither real life nor digital connections, that may be true for you.

then it is possible to abandon Discord by just quitting and not looking for any alternatives.

it is really not. not without significantly crippling your life.

luckily, there are alternatives, so we will just see if people are willing to put money where their mouth is.
