Transporting across state lines is weird and federally regulated.

Why not just metric, so we can get those metric seconds, then daylight time wouldn’t matter anymore.
Yeah it really only matters what you are comfortable with, if you get units you aren’t comfortable with then it gets confusing. I almost feel like metric folk don’t realize that the USA is like 50 EU states in size, and this disconnect causes them some rage at seeing imperial units. At the human level I still can’t comprehend Celsius, mostly cuz those numbers have meanings in fahrenheit, sure makes for some cognitive dissonance to heard 35 degrees thinking you would need snow gear to hearing it’s unbearably hot.
Trying to live in the “raised by wolves” timeline?
Democracy has it’s own inherent issues, for one the majority has complete authority over any minority group. At its worst democracy is a mob that doesnt care about any minorities issues. As in if you cant get your issue/cause agreed to by more than half of the population, it’s never going to happen. Democracy isnt inherently good,
I’ve tried more instead of less, I will have to try fewer and see how it works, which repo is fewer on?
Not the one concerned, but the two party system used to include the wigs. One party can get dismantled and I think it would only happen with bottom up pressure, and grass roots.
It really is the blame game isnt it? Like is it western world fault for buying those goods and the emissions from their production. Or is it the place that allowed those goods to be made there with those emissions? If it wasnt produced would america buy them? If there wasnt american demand would india and/or China produce them?
But Christmas is a religious holiday, but not originally a Christian one.
This feels like accent shaming. You coulda been nicer.
What do you mean it doesnt scale up? It sure does. What do you think the control room operators are doing? Nukes turn water to steam and run that steam through turbines much like any other steam driven plant. Using control rods you can adjust the energy output of the plant. Could a single nuke cover a whole state covered in solar? Not likely. But neither can a single battery.
Same 70’s era flying sounds nice, less like packing people into sardine cans
I wish I could of tried a plane in those days
I had a car that needed gas, and was a stick shift. I called the technique three footing. Basically I jammed my heel on the brake and raked my toes on the gas pedal to keep the engine running at a light or stop sign.
It’s not the everyman buying from scalpers its industry buying cheap pis over plc, when it’s that much cheaper scalper prices isnt much to them. And they need them NOW. Gotta love just in time manufacturing.
I dont understand, like how is the government compelled to break its own laws. Isnt library under free speech. I dont understand how such a failure of our institutions was able to happen.
Each nation has its own agreement with the USA that defines these things, it’s weird. I think it’s in Wisconsin where tribe members retain hunting and fishing rights to a lake sold as a private lake, when cops showed up, they had to let them fish and hunt or the land would be returned to the tribe. As per the agreement from long ago.
