What is up with that blue car? I'm imagining the owner parked at a strip mall, selling car insurance, vehicle registrations, and automotive decals to whoever walks up.

I really like the maps that also indicate population, like this dot density map:

In 2015, two German researchers speaking at the Chaos Communication Congress described the internal operation of the OS. The North Korean government wants to track the underground market of USB flash drives used to exchange foreign films, music and writing, so the system watermarks all files on portable media attached to computers.

Interesting! I wonder what they do with the information.

No information is the best option. How bad the misinformation is depends on intent. Is the misinformation a lie intentionally told to conceal a truth? Or is it bullshit, information intended to persuade regardless of truth?

Someone who lies and someone who tells the truth are playing on opposite sides, so to speak, in the same game. Each responds to the facts as he understands them, although the response of the one is guided by the authority of the truth, while the response of the other defies that authority and refuses to meet its demands. The bullshitter ignores these demands altogether. He does not reject the authority of the truth, as the liar does, and oppose himself to it. He pays no attention to it at all. By virtue of this, bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.

From Harry Frankfurt's essay On Bullshit

You could totally sell boar's bile to conservative suburban moms today as a "natural home remedy."

NiteRider has a K-Edge adapter for their Lumina lights:
https://www.niterider.com/products/gopro-adapter-by-k-edge

They're a US company but have distributors in Europe.

The Luminas are a more serious headlight than you are looking for. They're great, though. Mine lights up the road on the darkest nights.

This would fit better in [email protected].
