Remote start of any kind is a luxury and it’s wild to me that someone would defend internet car controls as any way important or even desirable. That’s what I’m talking about. Physical keys work totally fine and add like two seconds of time to the process.
It’s a good thing we invented remote start at the same time as the car itself, I can’t imagine the horror of only operating a motor vehicle I’m next to (let alone touching)
They have to believe in meritocracy, that wealth isn’t intrinsically tied to exploitation and a long history of classism.
I live on top of a hill that drains directly into the ocean. If my house floods I have different problems.
I also won’t live on the side of hills without a very clear understanding of the local watershed, soil stability, nearby land rights… I took a lot of Earth science classes and honestly it’s kinda traumatizing to peek behind the curtain. Shit is fucked.
We don’t respect rivers enough. I would never live in a floodplain.
Dude’s a Christian Zionist.
Or. Or. And hear me out on this: participate in society.
Off power grid maybe, imagine the nightmare of urban well-digging or apartment septic tanks.
What, and take any responsibility for the Commons?
You should never expect privacy in someone else’s car.
Grain is also fruit, botanically speaking.
Racism.
As it should be but not how it is.
Did you invoke the magic phrase? You must say “these edibles ain’t shit” to activate their power.
This is a web forum, not an academic journal. Fuck off with the grammar policing.
And while we’re at it, get fucked Pearson and other scummy textbook publishers!
How is that meaningfully different from “the camera generated”? Both result in a full image from a single input.
Neither storage “solution” is currently adequate for fossil fuel replacement and may never be for high-density populations. Nuclear is less impactful than burning hydrocarbons or damming rivers and fearmongering about radioactive waste products isn’t helpful because, again, every nuclear accident or leak to date has been less harmful than normal exhaust from coal-burning plants and riparian habitat destruction.
If we had kept investing in an actual energy solution we would have gen-IV reactors already and the waste concerns would be even lower.
We’ve been a deeply racist and violent country for longer than we’ve been a country. Built on genocide and slavery. We didn’t properly address our failures when we had the chance (Civil War should have ended with a new constitution and drastically different political structure to keep militant bigots from gaining power) and now we have this.
