The films of such a vast project will be far superior techno-fap fodder to some truckers driving in a bit of snow.
Real "truckers in jeopardy" drive unarmored supply trucks for military contractors, but good luck getting camera crews to stay long enough for a series.:P
Religion is toxic, and one of the great accomplishments of the Maoists was to damage its influence in China.
While it is rare that a national government is in the enviable position to oppose superstition, I support their efforts against backwardness. One day anti-religion may be regarded as visionary.

I'm working on that problem using my belly folds as a conveniently resettable mechanical model. With time (and plenty of syrup) I expect plenty of useful data.
As long as Photoshop is the standard and Adobe doesn't go insane with copy protection, there is no (non-ideological) reason for most users not to use Photoshop on Windows systems.
As with Office 97, being able to use a legal copy at work yet pay nothing for home use makes the parent company a fucktillion dollars by chumming the market.
If Adobe moves to heavy copy protection they will lose market share.
More pocket money (and supposedly obsolete PCs) for me!
Nuke-and-pave is fast, which is all that matters.
Fixing Windows installations is like picking shit out of toilet paper. Just because you can doesn't mean you should, and you aren't likely to remove the entire "problem".
Just abandon Superstition. That simple. Put down the nonsense, repudiate the affirmation which is the REAL reason for the popularity of Superstition Societies, and free yourself.
There is no evidence to support any superstitions, and spirituality is beneath modern man.
"Why punish those that are there to learn with disruptive people?"
No Shit!
I had to deal with Hellmouth-creating asshole students when I was in school and would have been delighted to have the system hammer them into the fucking ground or boot them out. I was finally able to escape to private school where I thrived.
Children do NOT automatically self-discipline without IMPOSED discipline (neither do adults, which is why military Basic training is vital to team function) and some will never do that anyway.
That's the only way left so expect it to become "normal". Peaceful change won't happen so anyone wanting to fight must do so under less-traditional conditions using less-traditional methods.
When an opponent has overwhelming conventional forces, the only to negate that deterrence is to refuse to be deterred.
Food for thought: This is the least expensive way to fight. The effort to PRESERVE ones troops can become a handicap.
".I recently realised that I will be like the people who make furniture in their garage, fix up old cars (I won't go into the new computerised cars), or even make simple electronic circuits."
Plenty of people work on "old" cars and trucks for utilitarian reasons. (In my area a forty-year-old truck is a common work vehicle.) It saves a shitload of money and will in future.
I get very well "paid" to service and repair my (old and newer) vehicles and am not alone as the enormous DIY market demonstrates. That won't change. Auto labor is expensive and compared to that quality tools are quite reasonable.
BTW: The computers in new cars are only a barrier if you decide they are a barrier. Modern car systems are mostly well-documented and not terribly difficult to work on. Don't be intimidated.

This calls for the classic Fuckedcompany (which Pud should have resurrected) comment:
"They had a vision for something great and they tried their best to make it happen. Not every business succeeds, in fact almost many fail. They had the guts, the vision and the nerve to be great."
Be really blunt about it to chase off the sensitive fucks who start this shit in the first place. The way to react to PC bullshit is with scorn and open hatred because courtesy is wasted on such people.
"This site may offend you. If it is possible to offend you then go the fuck away and never come back because no one here needs you as a viewer."
There really ARE valid reasons for harsh netiquette.
Why must everything be "authorities vs. citizens"?
How about "innocents vs violent thugs"? Am I obliged NOT to ID someone who assaults me, steals my stuff, or burns my or my neighbors business because you think it's oppressive?
Piss off. It's also perfectly reasonable for employers to fire criminals. If someone cannot be trusted not to loot and burn, why should anyone be obliged to retain them in any position of trust?

I LOVED working four ten-hour shifts instead of five eights.
You can get plenty of work done with less interruption and three-day weekends rock.
I loved four-day weeks at college. For a trivially longer workday you get four days extra per month to have a life.

Who feels violent after rubbing one out?
That presumes there is an appropriate task for said employees and that employing them is more profitable.

Egypt and Libya are examples of oppressed peoples rising up to demand inalienable rights.
The UK is an example of chav scum smashing shit (and killing innocent fellow citizens, lest you forget!) for shits and giggles.
You must REALLY hate chiropractors. Please post many similar letters to editors. Copypasta is fine.

Stay the fuck off then. Illustrations DON'T suffice or medical texts would still be relying on line drawings.
Why should the rest of us sacrifice for the faint of heart?
If body parts offend your taboos, YOU CHOSE those taboos.
You have every right not to go there in the first fucking place, thereby exercising YOUR right to opt-out.
No one is giving you the Clockwork Orange eyelid clamp treatment. You have to navigate TO a site to view it. Please don't breed.

Why should what you DO in public not BE public?
What about the ordinary people the rioters assaulted and killed?
