I knew what video this was and had a little lol anyway. She does a good job.

How would a turbine that takes energy from the air current generated by a passing car decrease the energy of the car? The car has imparted the energy to the air, the air has already extracted energy from the car aerodynamic or directly Newtonian forces, and then the turbine would extract energy from the accelerated air from the passing vehicles.
Blimp reservoirs!
Tried Threads briefly. It’s full of the same people who comment on or create Facebook reels. Insta-political trolling, deliberately wrong info just to get people to comment and correct it, “I’m stupidly out of the loop on this ridiculously popular topic, can someone tell me why [thing] is?” Just to get every know-it-all to reply. Like every low-effort post on Reddit ever.
Couple that with the inability to sort, and the inability for notifications to take you to the post you were having a discussion on, and I gave up after about 3-4 days.
The platform sucks and so do the participants.
Couple -2
Few - 3 or more
Lot - anybody’s guess
It’s not even consistently denoting plural. It’s being used because people don’t understand the use of an apostrophe in a contraction as well. Word ends in “s”? Just slap an occasional apostrophe in them.
Emotions are difficult for them outside of fear and anger over “everything wrong with this country”. They don’t like public display of emotion, as evidenced by their sharp criticism of Walz’ son Gus crying at the convention. They do seem pretty happy to inflict suffering where they can.
Pretty much what I was trying to get at. Everyone’s fixated on “but it isn’t karma…” while rejecting out of hand that people can place value on post/comment count, and at some point the idea of point “totalizer” could become a thing.
The fediverse isn’t static, and if it grows it will only require someone to desire that change and the knowledge implement it.
I simply thought of cutting it off before it could ever go that way with and that it might be worth considering. A mechanic that would offer a cake day yearly cumulative “badge” that showed sort of service to the communities and longevity without any avenue to amass points - other than a rolling 1-year trend to show post/comment contributions as individual numeric values. Make it community controlled? If you participate in a Linux community your badges show up as a bunch of Linux Tux penguins with “thumbs up” or some such.
I have no idea who these two men are other than reading that the guy (on the left?) is Shapiro and Behind the bastards did a good job informing me what a tool he is.
Yep. Grew up in the unincorporated area of my town and had well water.
Also have plenty of dental work today.
It was obvious enough that the hygenist even asked if I’d grown up with well water.
Sad that I had to churn this in my brain as how things should be, yet it’s a “comic” that is fictional, but also the idea that society would get its shit together and think this way is also a fiction.
