This is a myth and has been debunked.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/feb/12/car-splatometer-tests-reveal-huge-decline-number-insects

The survey of insects hitting car windscreens in rural Denmark used data collected every summer from 1997 to 2017 and found an 80% decline in abundance. It also found a parallel decline in the number of swallows and martins, birds that live on insects.

The second survey, in the UK county of Kent in 2019, examined splats in a grid placed over car registration plates, known as a “splatometer”. This revealed 50% fewer impacts than in 2004. The research included vintage cars up to 70 years old to see if their less aerodynamic shape meant they killed more bugs, but it found that modern cars actually hit slightly more insects.

Insects. At night there would be plenty of insects under every singe street lamp. The windscreen would be full of yellow goo after driving in summer.

This.

I tried Fark-It-All and it legit helped me reduce my stress level a lot. After Amazon drove up its Ads I felt I realy couldn't take it any more. And since there is literally nothing you can do about ads, neither on reddit nor on Amazon, I looked for other options. And what can I say? Taking some Fark-It-All brings the fun back into funding, hypercapitalist corpations trough engaging with Ads. I highly recommend Fark-It-All, even if you just feel like you could potentialy be stressed out a bit by Ads. I've heard a lot of realy positive feedback on taking it preventative.

No /s, it realy is the shit. Just try it out and see for yourself.

In kleineren Städten hier in der Gegen (Mainz, Wiesbaden, Darmstadt) sind 500 realistisch, auch weniger. In Frankfurt geht das auch, aber da muss man schon Glück haben.

Gender ideology, which seeks to blur differences between men and women through movements such as transgenderism, “makes everything the same,” Francis said.

“Erasing differences is erasing humanity. Man and woman, however, are in a fruitful ‘tension,’” Francis told the assembly

Wild. Unscientific, Transphobic and in the end just realy harmful misinformation.

True, but there will be New Solutions. Or no YT for me at least. I am not willing to watch a single stupid add. Not one.

Jtlyk, you can use a custom keyboard, like Swift Key. Many have the option to scale according to your preferences.
