Apparently it’s because there’s a chance your foot could come off the brake if you’re rear ended so the car has momentum forward and no brake applied.
It’s just a pedantic rule from my neck of the woods and most people would never do it the ‘correct’ way for daily driving, but if you’re going for your licence test the driving instructors might get anal over small things like this.
I was told off by my driving instructor for putting the car in neutral while sitting at the lights, he said it was due to the risk of being rear-ended and rolling forward into oncoming traffic, this isn’t a problem if you’ve got the handbrake engaged but some driving testers will have a whinge about this apparently. (At least in my area)
It’s a good habit to learn though. Also to add, resting your hand on the gearstick will wear down the transmission in a similar fashion

Fuck yes dude, chop my hands off. I’m in one of those 10%
Oh yeah the very nice police force that has absolutely not been systematically trained to shoot first and ask questions later when things go south?
They’re useless because the capital powers that be actively try to misinform the public on preferential voting (As part of a larger attack on education to keep a complicit population)
If I had a dollar every time I heard someone tell me I’m throwing away my vote for preferencing a minor party that has no hope of winning I’d probably have enough money to bribe a politician into making some decent fucking policy

Oh, works on my machine. Oh well.
The best solution for privacy is to not use windows, seems like a good guide but even with all these modifications I would throw the computer in the dumpster and set it on fire before using it in any privacy sensitive or mission critical applications.
Linux runs fine these days, and with NTSync in the kernel and the work done on WINE and proton there really isn’t a need to use an operating system that abuses you and sells your data for profit.
This is an economic war and it has been going on for some time, they have no need to fund armies. They’ve already subverted our way of life.
The oligarchs have united to fight against us, we need the working class to unite and fight back before it’s too late
Yeah I don’t disagree with you whatsoever, and the only time I actually use the handbrake in this situation is for one set of lights in my hometown because they take 5 minutes to goddamn change.
I’m more pointing out that driving instructors will have little quirks about things like this so going for a test in a manual can be more of a nightmare, especially now that manual trans is considered a hobbyist/enthusiast thing nowdays.
