Crammed like sardines? Or living in sanely zoned communities free of urban sprawl and endless suburbs?

Also China's e.v.'s are making inroads. I know BYD makes a comparable, if not better car for a fraction of the price.

I think even without Trump&Musk doing exactly what a xenophobic moron would do at every opportunity, we'd still see Tesla's sales declining. I think this next century is gonna belong to China. Love em or hate em, they sure do have their shit together.

Idk. I haven't owned a car in 12 years, and haven't flown for even longer. And tourism accounts for 8% of carbon emissions, whereas cars are coming in at 16%.

I might be dumb, but I know what love is!

Most people for most of history worshiped a fertility deity of one sort or another. Some stone age asshole spreading around what is basically nano tech (the seeds), having no idea how it worked, just knowing it was a miracle.

Just a few examples . Through out the year, at least before the abrahamic religions really took off, most people would have participated in at least one fertility ceremony or festival of some sort.

Love the culture series! Communism..... In space!!! Though I'd say to anyone who hasn't read them yet to skip the first and come back to it. It's a great novel, but it smells like the 80's. Was my first read in the series and it turned me off to the rest of them until years later when I have the series another chance

There's a ridiculous amount of energy being released all at once with a burning tanker. Bridges are of made steel and concrete, not magic!

This is precisely the reason hazardous materials are banned from being transported in tunnels. A cars worth of energy being torched? Sure. A tanker carrying several thousand cars worth of energy is a different beast altogether.

It's a balancing act with no clear one size answer. Can't fix stupid, nor can you teach wisdom. There's definitely situations where I'd want someone older in charge, cooler heads and all that.

I think when you see a rigid seniority system in place, it's usually a stand in for a more equitable solution. Sometimes the argument over who gets precedent isn't worth the trouble, and it's easier to just say fuck it and go by seniority. Less fair than some methods, fairer than a lot though too.

Rice vinegar makes a great condiment. It's much sweeter and less pungent than most other vinegars. If you're making a sandwich right, it's half salad. Dress those greens with some rice vinegar!

Slice up some cucumber, some onion, dress it in rice vinegar and stick it in the fridge overnight. Great on salad, on toast, anything really. I've even diced it up good into a relish and put it(cold) on pizza.

If I ever start a nihilistic cult, I'm totally gonna name it this!

It's asbestos siding, absolutely nothing to worry about!

I've still got an account. But I jumped over during the API debacle. I'm sure if I stayed I would have been banned for commenting on the Luigi situation, or calling Musk and Trump out for the dimwitted little Nazi fucks they are.

But I'm here! A proud little lemming just feeling blessed AF to be here with all you nerds!

A river died

Just one example of their bad acting. No worse really than the western world has done, but certainly no better

Dope! Ya I do realize, I suppose I could have worded it better. That sounds really nice and I hope you have a wonderful time!

Also maybe we should skip the burgers too. Veganism is probably the way to go.

I know screen shots from googles shitty AI isn't the best but....

You'd have to eat a whole shitload of hamburgers to get close to intercontinental air travel. Congrats

Right? I don't want people to be hermits. If I were a dictator king, everyone would get two tourism passes. Once in their 20's, and again in their 50s. Take 6 months/a year, learn the language, and live in the community.

I don't get it either. Maybe they're decrying labor practices in US meatpacking plants? How there's underpaid child migrants working in them. And beef is also terrible for the environment.

Like a whataboutisim, like get off that high horse because this also terrible practice exists too so quit whining about your thing.

Idk best I can make out. Still a terrible retort if that's what they mean.

Get this man an IPO and a PR firm immediately!!!

Y'all better start learning Chinese
