Warning: two- and three-head units are 30% less efficient than single-head units, and units with more than three heads are 50% as efficient (based on real-life measurements, in MN IIRC). So at least pick one single-head hyper-efficient unit

In Seattle area there's https://wirefreesky.com I saved $250 by just using wire cutters. Previously the power company removed the cable line for me, because their cherry picker was too tall and just drove into it and it sna

We suck at building ships. We can't build them quickly or resource-efficiently. They frequently break down (remember Windows NT problems on Destroyers?). Washington State can't even figure out how to buy new ones. The Jones Act ha

The amount of vitamins in food is trending down. We say we're farming, but the plants are living on materials delivered from petroleum or natural gas in a media where we attempt to kill all life. There's not a cycle. We shouldn&#x

You can't physically stimulate inner-ear response without actually accelerating and moving. You'd need to find some way to mask those signals so you actually feel like you're moving. Would also be the only way I could use VR

How about we just stop subsidizing rural living and force big city liberals to allow more housing?

We have enough active military equipment to fight land wars with two superpowers simultaneously. We have enough of all equipment to give to Ukraine. Not lease or sell, just get them to win without losing so many people. Fuck, give them a ca

According to Wikipedia, we have "some 3,700 M1A1, M1A2 SEPv2/v3 in storage". So we have literally thousands of main battle tanks we will never use we could just give them. It's a meat grinder because we're making it

It's table salt, rust, sand, and ceramic. It's not toxic in the least. Corrosive, yes. Breathing in silica is not good long term. But it's about as toxic as beach sand.

They have the fat tires because they're purposefully melting tire rubber into the pavement for a bit more traction. Rubber tires have maximum grip at 7% slip; just about the only material where sliding friction is greater than static f

I do not think anything you said is true. Most places do not have "time limits". I find no evidence of abattoir workers becoming more likely to be serial killers. People used to kill their own animals and weren't vegetarians.

The price of housing is outrageous and it's worldwide, somehow. The knock-on effects are huge and I think this is one of them. Or maybe governments just can't last as long as they have and they steal all progress eventually. (WW2
