  • And you wouldn't have to reverse causality to travel backwards in time. You would just have to travel faster than the speed of light.

    Another term for the speed of light is the speed of causality as it is the rate with which causality propagates through the universe.

    Traveling faster than the speed of light is, by definition, reversing causality.

  • When everyone has unlimited access to stuff, one person wanting more does not deprive others of anything so it does not matter if it exists.

    IE: In a post scarcity society, greed becomes irrelevant.

  • Not really. Hubble is set up to image objects light years away and moving relatively slowly.

    Keyhole stats as set up to image the earth's surface that is only hundreds/thousands km away and moving quite fast.

    Two different missions would lead to two different designs.

  • Even if a law was passed it would be repealed as soon as a new party was in power or nullified by the supreme court due to the 2nd amendment.

    The 2nd amendment needs to change and that is now impossible.

    The US founding fathers recognised that the constitution would need to be constantly updated as times changed but it has become a holy document and religious text for the cult of USA: The Greatest Country on Earth!!!.

    Multiple other countries have reached the point with their own mass shootings and said enough is enough and restricted firearms. But any outside example is rejected in the USA because the USA is different because (insert trite reason).

  • No politician wants to change these gun issues so this will continue.

    Because they know that to try would be political suicide. So much of the US population fetishizes gun ownership and makes it a corner stone of their personality that it is basically impossible to change.

  • The absolute numbers sound impressive but compared to total car sales we come back to reality.

    The year-to-date sales of battery electric vehicles (EVs) have hit 80,446 compared to 28,326 for the same period last year

    EVs made up 7.2% of all motor vehicle sales so far this year.

    So, while the increase is encouraging it is still small compared to total sales.

    There is still bugger all EV charging infrastructure in the country which will slow down further growth and wider adoption.
