It's like getting into a boxing ring alone to face ten prime world champions after an hour at the gym is my analogy.

Aren't people doing pretty much all of these? I like what I call the opposite of "death by a thousand cuts" approach, which I like to call "healing by a thousand bandaids".

Every good a poor person buys is shipped by fuel though? Edit: And the rich are more likely to be able to afford electric vehicles and appliances _and_ they of course are more likely to be able to take a hit to their finances and an upsurge

They had Mr. Garrison say this ``` On November 8th, you must vote against me and show the world that you didn’t think the new Star Wars was all that good. When you’re in that voting booth, remember that every vote for Hillary Clinton is a v

I thought it was telling when South Park basically walked back the whole "The vote's between Shit Sandwich and a Turd" or whatever and said "Vote for Hillary". It was as if they hadn't realized the amount that

Europe's been very good about energy conservation and has already reduced 1990 levels by a third. I can't find the graph's I've seen but this is representative. https://www.motherjones.com/wp-content&#x2F

Yea, and most young democracies are very vulnerable. You can look at the Arab Spring for examples of failed democracies, and the early United States (it took us 20 years to get off the Articles of Confederation and work on the Constitution

Yea, I'd be fine seeing ads for camping gear on a site for neat hikes in my area... it's the fact that the advertisers are tracking everything I do instead of just putting relevant ads in relevant places. To be fair, some ads are

Lol, I dunno man, you clearly have some sort of viewpoint you're staunchly confident is the way the world works. I just read the article, electronic vehicles are very quiet, this has been my experience biking around NYC as well. So the

Hmm, they did a bunch of studies before moving forward with creating a framework for the sounds required. The article's fairly decent. Should check it out :-)

I'm not sure about the noise levels but it's the law to add some noise to electric vehicles cause otherwise they're nearly silent and people can't hear them creating a very hazardous environment for pedestrians, bikers,

I'm pretty sure card only is illegal in NYC for precisely this reason. I come across them occasionally and I think the pandemic made it a bit more common place but it's technically against the law here to not accept cash. https:&

My good friend's Indian and she loved when I described the caste system as "just racism for people who look alike". Groups gonna group... it's good to see there's some pushback on the bullshit.

If someone built something that said "Launder your money here" and it took in a bunch of money, and then disbursed it sans fees to hide where it came from... they'd say it was money laundering and arrest the person. Can anyon

I just turn off all the toggles for personalized suggestions from Siri and targeted advertising and don't worry about it? I don't receive anything targeted to me as far as I've seen. I believe the toggles are fairly visible u

I don't think this is an accurate assessment of the situation. China's an export based economy that's going through a slowdown and still struggling with pandemic lockdowns. War would shut down the Taiwanese straight for shipp

Huh, I always crush with the knife edge _before_ peeling, then the skins come off easy as pie. This is after washing the garlic segments I plan to use, then I save the skins along with other washed refuse from carrots, onions, celery, etc a

Extremely dangerous might be a bit much. I ride the subway a fair amount. And there's been an uptick in crime (all over the US), but I wouldn't really call the subway dangerous. NYC houses something like 95% of its homeless as wel

Wouldn't the early iterations of something generally be pretty lame? Seems possible in 50 years or so things could be more mobile or advanced in other manners. Either way, certainly interested in seeing what the USAF will be doing to g

I've done well reducing the amount of things I have that can distract me for long periods of time. These are things like news sites (don't visit much anymore), phone, social media (don't have anymore), news aggregators like H

Seems fairly linear no? Gut biome digests food to ingest nutrients which are used by the eyes and brain, ergo more efficient processes produce better results for them?

They've done that from NYC to Albany and it's great. As you say, no traffic. I can't think of a much safer way to bike.
