Magnetism only feels like magic, because we don't have biological sensors for it
  • I actually heard about an experiment with magnets. They implanted them under people's finger tips or something like that. Think they left it in for a year. They were able to even detect electricity through walls as well. After it was removed they could still do it!

  • Fascists, socialists are the same coin. The Nazi regime just had longer reaching effects. Tyranny still going strong too...

    If you want a science fiction example, Cyberpunk - Star Wars.

  • A simple solution at cost of minor aesthetic changes
  • Yup batteries are not the way. By the time the batteries need to be replaced you might have helped slightly but probably not. Batteries is a illusion to going green right now. Just another product that has a demand and an easy market for it.

  • Die for Uhmerica
  • Canada- You wanna die? Perrrfect.

    As for the US if you're working, you should have insurance. Thank Obama if you do not. I vividly remember when he screwed that shit up.

    As for Europe, good luck.

  • What is something that people think is dangerous but in reality is completely harmless?
  • There are already programs. Run by a government that obviously can't help. We don't need to share our wealth, if we were provided wealth through real jobs. With a paycheck to buy whatever it is you need and be able to save. Less taxes, less inflation. It's the government chopping your wealth at your knees too "feed" other people will only make it harder to become financially well set for your chosen life style.

  • Stoner
  • It's not chemically addictive. Honestly people should really pointing fingers at smokers. Majority who smoke know the risks. Sugar is far more dangerous yet and they add it to everything. Weed on the other hand can help the majority with far less side effects then prescription pills. I'd take an edible or spray any day. Although it is far more fun to use a bong.

    Good meme but honestly when do you see an angry smoker? Even if he breaks his piece, worst that happens is a bummed high.

  • Hotel > AirBNB
  • Air BNBs all the way! I just got back from one in NC mountains. We rented a lodge right next to a river with a cow pasture literally next to the house. Besides a washer and dryer...It had a hammock, fire pit, grill, farm fresh eggs, sweets from a local bakery, plus milk and orange juice and a stocked coffee bar. Then there was also a basket of decent snacks.

    The Airbnb before had the same attention to detail but much smaller. They owned most land near the house so they built 2 little cabins near them to rent. This one came with a "free" bottle of whiskey. It also had a Blackstone and fire pit as well.

    All hotels offer is the same shitty breakfast foods and coffee. Much rather be enjoying my vacation even if we wanted to spend half the day home at an Airbnb. Can't beat the perks. Just need to do your homework, not all Airbnb's are shitty rented side rooms. For the last 5 years my extended family and I had rented several houses big enough for the 9 of us. All with plenty to do around the house when you need a break from driving, hiking, restaurants and shopping.

  • Any Bean Recommendations?
  • Sounds like some great beans! Gonna have to order some but I have never roasted before. Though since joining this sub, I kinda want to give it a go. Have you tried any of their pre-roasted?

  • Unpopular opinion : Bing is a better search engine than Google when it comes to piracy
  • Yup, honestly haven't seen much difference at all when I switched a few years ago. But thanks to this post I learned about SearX. Gonna give that try now. Curious though if using a browser like Chrome for example, would make it a pointless? That's what drew me to duck since they have their own app.

  • What streaming services do you pay for?
  • True, though between my wife and I, we do to much of our shopping on there. Which I know is WORSE. Love to ditch that too but that is gonna be a slower progress to ditching then Netflix. Their history of cancelling shows and prices hikes makes it easier.
