You're joking... but look into "brightline" with the Florida shit show and how they're now getting further public subsidiaries to make a "profitable" HSR (highspeedrail) between CA and NV. Doing exactly what you're stating but with their ears plugged while screaming as loud as they can.

400 holmes, the british sequel to 300.

According to my social media feed from yesterday everyone in Vienna has to park like this

I read that as the fireplace must be 10ft and not the chimney lol. Of course there are some bad ass ones this size but I wouldn't like the horror movie that comes after the installation.

two is one, one is none. I suggest the YOLO - conspiracy theorist in a forest shack setup

Thank you for the unsolicited pictures of your wood.

There was actually a prototype environmentally friendly airplane designed and tested back in 2000 during a genocide in Yorkshire that I feel like isn't talked about enough. The plane, using bicycle technology, was successful in transporting all of the local populace to safe territory with the help of a veteran Royal Air Force member and an American entertainer posing as a flight specialist. Really an incredible story and there's still footage of the flight. but I don't know the status of the airplane today.

Could be a problem if you're regularly taking stimulants in medication or drinks unfortunately.

Can we still send her but it turns into a "The Terminal" situation and she can just be your local airport mascot?

that's like stage 7-8, after an extremely high electric bill. Also about that time you consider moving to a colder climate so the electronics can just heat your house.

I'm so glad this is slowly getting more solid traction. For more viewing and reading pleasures on the topic,

So what you're telling me is that being tricked into eating a dog treat really isn't that big of a deal and in fact! relates to the poverty stricken parts of society and the struggles of class warfare so they really just need to get over the whole incident?

Wait, are we suppose to be in favor of the first one? I think like maybe a 25% tone down/declutter of the one on the right is a good sweet spot that's comfy and livable.

Normally I would agree but the brutality and whiplash like nature of the comment definitely has some dark humor to it. I was thrown off at first till I realized the context of them roleplaying as "Brandon" from the image. It's crass, but checks out as an attempt for me. Then again, I applaud people who are willing to be downvoted for a good well-hidden joke (the whole woosh thing).

Or they can wholesale just make shit up like all the evangelical rapture crap. Hell, look at even the constitution and how that's been stretched and colored for all of the anti-progressive rhetoric in the past.

I'm not 100% on board with @sulgoth@lemmy.world because it gives off some "but you participate in society, interesting" vibes. However, as an American I am all for people from the rest of the world boycotting our products (and this time not because of the health implications!). When Canadians were promoting non-american alternatives I agreed with them so I think we can say fuck companies and still stand with the actual individual people who want peace and everyone to prosper respectfully.

I just bookmark the piracy megathread/wiki thingy, lemmy/reddit (backup). For streaming, I would probably recommend hydra, it's really all the same but that site has "auto-next" which I prefer. There was one site I used to enjoy that was just better than any streaming platform I've paid for, skip intro, skip credits (would even detect after credit scenes), subtitles in all languages and audio tracks even commentary, quick responsive high quality loading of any media your mind can remember. They went after it hard and I haven't seen a proper iteration since (every clone slowly lost features as they were whack-a-moling).

For downloading, they're really all crappy (several link hoops to jump through) and hit or miss (for quality and selection you can't beat the ease of a torrent unfortunately). You can find what you want eventually but the difference in hassle is just crazy.

I view it kinda differently because that public post is still there (with the creators consent), and you can naturally run into it if you're a member or interacting with that group. However, this is a re-post and specifically a group targeting them as negative which can lead to brigading.

I definitely understand public is public, I think it's more of an ethics/moral choice where anyone wanting to harass the user would have to take extra steps since the information wasn't provided by this platform.

You're giving off some strong "I just awakened my ChatGPT" vibes here. Raw genuine unadulterated humanity is a figment of your imagination just like the "original" tomato, both have evolved from prior iterations of it's ancestors and will continue changing in the future. Why not just aim for primordial bliss?

invasive species = non-native. But, non-native doesn't always mean it's an invasive species.

Invasive Species: Any species that has been introduced to an environment where it is not native, and that has since become a nuisance through rapid spread and increase in numbers, often to the detriment of native species.

I don't think having a non-native title is necessarily bad, just that it didn't originate/evolve in that area.
