A programmer with an interest in transit, making music, and building things of all types.
I have dysgraphia which makes writing difficult for me. I hope you can figure out what I mean despite my issues.
Because someone needs to be enslaved to provide universial health care. If even one person wants to opt out, no matter how wrong their reason you if you allow don’t allow it they are enslaved. (note that there have been many different systems of slavery, but even the best still remones choice from someone). as such I prefer other options if they exist.
There are other options and so I oppose universial health care. Do not confuse that with approving of the system we have.
Your local bike store should have a nice selection. I use my EV bike all the time and the car I keep for those few trips where the bike doesn’t work just sits… You should too. Don’t forget to check out the local transit options (and if - as is likely - they are bad demand better)
The worst thing you can do is block people because of their leanings. That is how you get echo chambers. Of course many extremeists on both sides need to be blocked, just make sure you block them on your side too.
I wish I knew. So far I haven’t seen one that works. It is despirataly needed.
The problem is other platforms exist. not jst social media, but daycare dropoff or coffee shops.
I’m not sure if I could get anywhere and back. Woge I own a gun and you have allowed me to get it on a plane, but that day would expire before I get home and now I have a gun that I am taking through airports and customs.
We need ways to counter them. If nobody counters when they warn about whatever made up junk they have someone else will believe them. I don’t know how to country them though - it is harder than you might think. There have been a couple real conspiracies in history and if they accuse you of being in one how do you prove you are not?
that mechine can throw rocks hundreds of feet. Did it shut itself down like safety demands when you are that close?
The brutially honest personality test. Which was your standard MB test (not very useful) except it points out typical weaknesses and thus is something to watch out for. I know what I’m good at.
People don’t want to work 3rd shift - the rest of the world (your family, sports…) all work 1st shift. 2nd shift is only slightly better. It is probably better for your life to work 3rd shift for 1 week of every 3, than 3rd shift constantly - those other 2 weeks you can live semi-normal and thus have friends.
It still sucks, probably the best compromise.
Farmers do buy fertilizer. The concern is how that fertilizer is produced.
Err, yeah. Not a mineral but an element. my mistake
it leaves the field with the food we take off. from there it ends up in landfills and sewer systems. None go back toethe field.
Potasium is a mineral. When it is gone it is gone. Nitrogen is replenishable, but minerals need to be brought back some other way.
In a few specific areas. None within 1000 miles of my city., the tech is promissing, but only time will tell how far it gets.
If you live where it exists then you should be asking questions. It seems like a dream answer.
Automated light metro. build the same guideways all over. Trains that hold around 50 passengers, half with corgo bikes. Cookie cutter stations that are easy to factory prefab. Stations every mile on the existing grid. Automated means you run 24x7 with frequent service.
the important part: no station is more than 10 minutes ( 20 including you bike trip) to a central station where you can transfer to any many other trains including express toethe rest of the city. The central stations must all be in a zoned high density retail area so you can do your shoping there. there will be a lot of them scattered around the metro area.
the above will be expensive. However once bilt it would be cheaper than cars.
who knows if when they will exist. if they exist they will probably work.
specifc references to pun is the problem. I can accapt that mc speaks two languages. I can accept that they find a good translator as neede, and ths don’t have languare issues. However I find it hard to accept that they are speaking modern english. as soom as you make a pun it breaks the story as now I assume the modern world.
That one is worse in my mind as baring steroids men will be physically larger and stronger than women. women should have motivetions other than marry a strong man (nothing wrong with wanting a good husband, I know many young girls looking for one - but please don’t be the cardboard that is all I want)
It breaks immersion when you realize it. of course it depends on the story, if the story is in a small vilage it is fine but world travelers either need more than one language, or some in story reason everyone speaks a common language.
You are a slave and should opt out of those things.
Your proble is you know what is and cannot imangine what could be.
