Ah, of course, plant growth season makes the line squiggle.

That was yesterday. It’s about 428 now. The line goes straight up, as capitalism demands.

TikTok is an anti-democratic sabotage tool that should be banned, not endorsed.

… pickups or SUVs accounted for 89% of the “kills.” Cars accounted for the other 11%.

… those that are older, male or hold “right-wing” political views – are less likely to report feeling …

“Feelings are for pussies! Am I right, boys?”

Soon to be targeted at the chatbot maker’s political enemies.

Seems unsustainable to just let the old trees grow (capture carbon) slower and slower. Isn’t a long-lived wooden building the best capture, so log away to make room for new growth? Paper and Ikea furniture, not so well captured, soon burned in a power plant.

When you come up with a new name in English, I’ll start using it. Until then, chronic fatigue I can remember.

we’d know by now

Not necessarily. When intake rate finally exceeds human ability to remove plastic dust from the body, the accumulation begins.

This reminds me of when Quora automatically deleted questions containing spam (instead of reverting the spammy edits for some reason), so some political actors used it to provoke the deletion of thousands of years-old inconvenient questions (with all answers) by editing the questions into something that triggered the spam deletion bot. Quora never restored the questions and answers. They did ban the editing of anything, so now the site is full of bad grammar and typos, redundant topics, and wrongly bot-tagged questions.

When it’s cold enough, or just raining freezing cold water, biking hurts.

As a long time vaper, I never get any withdrawal symptoms after quitting - quite the opposite: the first week is still tolerable, but then the depression comes back and never leaves in 9 months of abstinence.

Antidepressant and Anxiolytic Effects of Medicinal Cannabis Use in an Observational Trial

Results: Medicinal cannabis use was associated with lower self-reported depression, but not anxiety, at baseline. Medicinal cannabis users also reported superior sleep, quality of life, and less pain on average. Initiation of medicinal cannabis during the follow-up period was associated with significantly decreased anxiety and depressive symptoms, an effect that was not observed in Controls that never initiated cannabis use.

If they invested ~1 million in manufacturability design, it’d be about half the price, but investors usually don’t dare because decades-old lawfare attacks by the fossil fuel industry are still in effect in many countries.

The ability to pedal enables exercise and gives you accurate longitudinal position control for parking. A servo generator as a forward-backward interface complicates nothing compared to a car-like interface. If it doesn’t have that now, it will because it’s an old invention and the natural solution for all pedal-electrics to evolve to.

Fairing in velomobiles reduces wind resistance a lot compared to unfaired recumbent trikes of the same size. I believe this with doors on has the same drag as a regular bicyclist. Doesn’t even matter because electricity is cheap. Rain coat can’t stop the weather from hurting my face.

Worked for a notorious backstabber, got stabbed in the back. Is this the right time for victim blaming?

That’s barely evil. Consider the destruction of OkCupid as an attack against its liberal-skewed user base:

Does this make possible federated supply-demand matching, like dating, jobs, and any kind of marketplace?

Just a credible threat.
