Please note the following:
* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.
* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

150 Km/h is really fucking fast, dude.
Even I dont drive that fast on long ass highways. I do drive over 100 (everyone does) but never that high. 165km would scare me.

Having driven on the Autobahn and like roads in Europe, it is scary. At first.
Provided you're in a car that can handle that speed (e.g. Not an SUV or pickup, but something with tight steering and proper brakes), you get used to it over a bit of time. Start at 130 and bump it up sad you get comfortable.
There are lots of rules. No smoking, driving coffee or anything that takes your hands off the wheel or your eyes of the road. Stay out of the fast Lane unless passing. You need a copilot to adjust the AC and radio if you have it on.
It wouldn't work at all in North America with our vehicles and drivers.
