didn't everyone run out, two years into the war (1915/6?) for the exact same reason that US/Russia/Europe recently did?

Los Caracoles? (west out of Los Andes)

Some bicycles can run out of honk

Flip-flop. Can't wait for all the newspapers to "fact check" his interview.

If you'd like to be horrified, Alpha Phoenix shows how to make election maps that don't look like they've been gerrymandered, and might be hard to spot what is wrong with them!

30 seconds? Some exchanges have to measure the cables to prevent customers from getting a microsecond advantage!

Thomas Midgley Jr. (leaded petrol, CFCs, lots of deaths at the "ethyl" factory)

As jwz put it, "For nearly all of my life, I've known how I was going to die."

Well it's not an HTTP status code; it's an HTCPCP status code.

Wikipedia can also be useful to find software - e.g.:

• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_vector_graphics_editors
• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_integrated_development_environments
• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_audio_player_software

or look at the Wikipedia page for whatever you want to replace and see if it's in a category such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Audio_editing_software_for_Linux

You can even do this with things that aren't software, e.g. Homebase -> UK home improvement stores -> Screwfix.

That's not an EV issue that's a modern car issue.

One of the worst privacy risks was Buick who didn't even make EVs.

It might be a trope by now, but when you mention "rich tourists and digital nomads"... have you read For The Win?

When Cory Doctorow considers this question, ... His character, an archetype of the subcultures you mention, voiced by the most cyberpunk author you ever read, chooses a cargo ship.

Looks like the main options are the things you've already ruled-out:

• Lowest impact travel: passenger on a cargo ship.
• Zero-emissions vehicle: £6000 trip on a sailing boat, but any normal-sized boat is going to expect everyone on board to take shifts.

Maybe you can find a "tall ship" that's big enough to have passive passengers (example), or pay the small boat to bring a higher ratio of paid crew to let the passengers sleep.

Let's not allow them to claim this word - "orange pilled" refers to a realisation of the problems with northamerican suburbia!

Might be in an American suburb - their roads can be ridiculously oversized for the posted speed limit.

Shapez2 just released?

Someone's university has CH-751 locks on their toilet roll dispensers, and is missing a roll...

"Cannot contain your email address" - damn right it can't contain my email address in 20 characters!
