"Someone". And yes, they are.

Fusion 360. It's the only thing that makes me boot into windows. I've lazily tried to make do with some 3D CAD on Linux, but no.

Sweden: Svensson, although the most common surname is Andersson.

Specifically for Gothenburg - Glenn "everybody is called Glenn in Gothenburg", or older use - Kålle (male) and Ada (female). Not used that often.

I know toasters are for bathing, but hadn't heard circular saws were better for showers. TIL.

If you're implying what I think you're implying, violence is rarely the way to go. It feeds on itself and those who are best at it or most inclined to use it tend to rise to the top and those are not the kind of people you want running things when the smoke has cleared. Those people tend to continue using those same methods that worked to get them where they are. History has numerous examples of when well meaning movements that came to power through violence and turned to crap afterwords because the leaders continued using violence to stay in power. Be very wary of simple solutions to complex problems.

You are right in the sense that change is needed and change never comes easy. I think it is a mistake to blame the people, despite my click-baity first question above. People are just trying to get by and do not see a way to improve things. If you got a mortgage and a couple kids you gotta feed and the boss is on your back with ever more work and there's just not enough time in the day, it is bloody hard to let go of that responsibility and join the revolution. Most people just want to get by and are too tired to do anything else. They are also fed an endless stream of propaganda that you got to succeed and if you just work hard you're gonna get rich one day. It is all lies, of course, but it is not easy to see through all that massive indoctrination that you've been forcefed since you were born. The shitty schools does not help much either.

Yes, people are too comfortable. But if your life is anything like I described above, you're too bloody tired not to be. You just want to get a few hours to watch the TV or look through your Facebook feed before you crash into bed with a few beers to numb the pain. People are still believing in the rugged individualism and it must be their own fault if they don't succeed. (Or some scary minority's fault) It is a very compelling story. Letting go of all the things you've been told your whole life isn't easy and there are very powerful forces doing all they can to prevent people from realizing they've been had. It's much easier to lie to someone than convincing them they've been lied to. Do not blame the people, blame the system.

Fair enough. If he had done it all by himself, it would've been fine. If someone wants to risk their own lives, it's up to them. It is honestly kinda impressive to roll your own bat like that and actually manage to get it sorta working. But as soon as he started selling the trips, the situation is completely different. He knew his glorified tub wouldn't pass any sort of inspection and still went full steam ahead. He had numerous people telling him it wasn't safe and he just ignored them. He knew, he just hoped it would work anyway because he was in to deep.

Old punks unite! You're right. Kindness and trying to do our part as best we can is all we can do. Hope is so very essential to combat the hopelessness, as is kindness. It's easy to lose hope, but we must fight it however we can. Your comment does make me feel a bit better, thanks. You are wiser than I, which also is punk as fuck.

All the time in the world if you can answer my second question instead. 😀

What the fuck is wrong with people?

That's rhetorical and I have a fair understanding about why this is happening. It's just so bloody frustrating not knowing how to turn this shit around and open the eyes of gen pop to this. People just don't want to accept that unless we do something right quick, we're fucked. We might be fucked even if we do everything right, starting tomorrow. And still, pretty much nothing, or token agreements that are cheap enough and not too disruptive to the almighty economy and doesn't disrupt availability of cheap crap from China and other low cost countries with little to no worker safety or even regard for human life. I'm not saying I'm not part of the problem myself, cuz I sure as hell am. I try to do the right things, but far from all the time and it's far, far from enough. This needs to come from the top to have an effect, but most, if not all, governments have their lips firmly between the cheeks of very large economic interests that need their diagrams to always be pointing up, no matter what.

I don't know. If they weren't such fascist autocratic ass kissers I'd be tempted to join lemmygrad. Revolution, baby. Seriously though, people here seem like an intelligent and rather handsome lot with their hearts in all the right places, so I ask you, what the fuck can we do?

I leave you with a pic of my cat to take the edge off.

Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

Edit: feel free to quote me if I'm wrong. Is there an aged like milk sub somewhere?

Yeah, and that it actually is two very different operating systems who sort of "merged" into one some 20 odd years ago, even if the base was NT and not 98/ME. They have tried to keep both paradigms alive since then, so it's a long standing MS tradition.

Did paying customers fully understand the risks, though? Seems the CEO was rather adept at bullshitting. And saying he didn't want military experts on the team because they weren't "enthusiastic" is just a load of crap. I bet they saw what a death trap the sub was and wanted no part of it.
