Oh, right, firefish.social has blocked qoto.org. You cannot even follow your firefish.social account from here and from firefisch.social you can't even see qoto.org at all.

@kemal But what did you mean with broken? As you can obviously post here.

@gpowerf Not disagreeing here that I and my environment generalized some things here. :)

Experience of my family:
Alpha Romeo: Bad (lost a wheel right after a garage checkup too! Dangerous situation 30~ years ago).
BMW: Excellent (dad's a fan, his BMW is by now an oldtimer).
Porsche: Good (dad's a fan)
Volvo: was fairly reliable
Suzuki: Great bang for buck, cheap and comfortable enough for that price, very agile in corners
Skoda: Bro loved it, reliable
Seat: Meh
There was this one Italian brand my bro had, I never saw a car with so many breakdowns in my life.

@piggo They used to be able to do a literal search on stuff you put in "", but even that seems broken lately.

@gpowerf Italian cars are regarded as 'meh'. French ones are a hit or miss. German ones are largely solid. Swedish ones are good too.

That's what I understand from my environment. (I don't have a car).

Japanese cars are popular as well.

@gpowerf I can't help but think that in a cheaper car, I'd feel safer in an European one than a Chinese one. 😅
Heck, I'd also feel safer in a Japanese car than in a Chinese car. Japanese cars are regarded with good quality here as well.

@gpowerf What happens if you crash at X speeds and all that fun stuff? You know, with crash test dummies and such. Safety.

Left cat: *Sniff sniff* This smells like butt.
Right cat: *Sniff sniff* This is actually a butt.

@kemal Did you break the internet again?

@olives A lot of minds joined the Fediverse.

Unless you're talking about something/someone specific, in that case I don't know them. ;)

@lydiaconwell 👀

@gpowerf What about build quality though?

@lydiaconwell Or are your toes fingers, but on your feet?

@manlycoffee @atomicpoet Oh, I've seen a documentary on TV a few years ago featuring this. There is a whole village in South America where there is a large ratio of children having this condition.

Unfortunately they often get bullied in their teens, after transitioning. :( So it's not really accepted that much even though it is very common.

Found a link which describes it in more detail:

Nature can be crazy interesting.

@lydiaconwell I don't think there's much left to appreciate to a squished slug.

@lydiaconwell That's because you're already doing such a splendid job all by yourself. 😋

@arstechnica Doesn't the Gmail spam filter largely work on the basis of other people reporting this email type as spam? 😅
