Brit here. I think we’re the same? I’ve never gone to a concert by car. It’s usually in a major city and it’s just easier by train. Not cheaper, though.
I’ve had friends tell me they’ve been stuck in car parks for hours while leaving concerts, so people obviously do it. It’s just not a great idea.
I guess it’d be different if we had massive car parks instead of train stations, which is becoming more the case with shopping.
Good to know the name, I’ve seen it invoked a few times.
In fact, I had this recently at work where I questioned a decision only for them to retort with one similar characteristic which a prior suggestion of mine shared. This was also a modal fallacy as they only used that one characteristic to come to a conclusion about both.
You also see it all of the time in politics unfortunately, a lot of “yeah but you also…” where we should be hearing good justifications.
I’ve used it for the exact same purpose, great minds think alike. It’s perfect for that scenario given there’s no internet.
I just don’t use it much otherwise because apps like Signal are far easier to move my friends and family on to and they’re more than good enough. The metadata privacy Tor would provide would give me a lot of peace of mind but I know it’ll never happen.

F5 is American, they just had a Moscow office.
However the creator of nginx, Igor Sysoev, is Russian.
Yeah, I don’t think it’s completely quiet and it also adds up.
I love the combination of auto stop/start, hybrids and electrics in the city. No idea what the real environmental impact is but the silence at traffic lights is amazing.
