Well not only “big = more expensive” the larger engines also have lower efficiency requirements. It’s much easier to make cars bigger and more “chugging” because they don’t have to meet the efficiency standards and because it’s bigger they can charge more.

In space we can hear you scream, a long time later, and very very quietly.

The problem is that you’re not just sending parts out there. You have to:

• get the upgrade rocket going fast enough to actually catch up with something going very fast with a 20 year head start
• slow down once you get to it.
• make the upgrades while floating in space on a piece of hardware that was designed not to be upgraded and built on earth (hope you don’t need gravity for disassembly) that you control on a 30 minute delay.

At that point we could just launch a whole new satellite with better hardware, going faster, and covering a completely different area of space. Which is what we have done. But we can still make use of the system we have out there. It’s still the furthest out, so it’s still worth using for as long as we can

100% agreed. Like I said I think it should be legal regardless, the punishments are way too severe for what it is. But on a completely different note, we do still need the tests. I love drinking and I love smoking, but there are rules of the road, and one of those is “don’t drive the death machine with impaired judgement”.

But yes you’re right, the legality shouldn’t be based on if “but what if they drive”. I’m more saying “if you do some life-disregarding level ignorant” shit you’re still getting in trouble.

THATS A LOTTA NUTS

I don’t think this is “car brained”. They’re not saying anything around public transit, just that we need to have a test for DWI and weed. People shouldn’t be jailed for 30 years regardless of the presence of the test or not, but we do still need some other test. Otherwise I guarantee that “don’t drive while baked” will be the next infomercial you see in a few years.

There are also a fair number of scientists that believe there may be a higher power or an afterlife that still devoutly hold to scientific study. You can be a person of science and a person of faith. As long as you don’t deny science along the way then there’s no problem with that. Now if you don’t believe in evolution or something then yes your credentials are weakened significantly, but believing that there is a higher power beyond earth doesn’t mean your test results are invalid.

Not only that but both of them, Kirk and WBC, were experienced. Not at being good debators but at shutting down people who tried to prove them wrong. Even if they were wrong. They had months if not years built around defending a flawed view and shutting down naysayers. They regularly practiced all their tactics so most of the people they debated (regular students who had an opinion) weren’t ready for their tactics. You don’t have to outsmart your opponent or be correct, you just have to trip them up and make them publicly look foolish. These guys travel the country ragebaiting and begging people to call them out daily, they know how to dodge and redirect and speak over.

Once you stoop to their level, they beat you with experience. It doesn’t make them right.

Also I’m pretty sure half of WBCs old tactic was saying stuff that would get them punched and then suing.

I mean… technically you are correct? The gravitational pull of the apple does act on the earth, but it’s so incredibly small and the earth is so incredibly massive it’s borderline non-existent.

But yes all gravitationally interacting object do act upon each other

He’s a politician and a former president? Of course he’s on X. Every single politician has been for almost a decade now.

Anyone who rips on waffle house hasn’t been tired, hungry, possibly hungover, and had $10 in their pocket. Eat like a king, bottomless coffee, and no frills food. I’ll take waffle house over Denny’s any day.

There’s also a vocal minority of just really pessimistic people on here. Politics I don’t mind as long as it’s a discourse about not only what is bad but what can be reasonably done about it.

I’ve been in several discussions where I add “look at community, we are strong together” and it’s immediately beaten down with “the world won’t change things are shit and always will be, be mad and angry about it, I’m mad and angry at you”.

It’s the internet, I’m not surprised. But I’ve definitely had to disconnect myself for a bit some days after severe reactions from people just to remember it’s just strangers on the internet.

It’s not all the time, but for some discussions that promote inclusion and understanding to be met with the hard “I don’t agree so you are human garbage” can be an awful whiplash sometimes.

There’s a lot of people in here talking about fitness, fasting, etc. but it really just comes down to calories in, calories out.

You have to acknowledge what you’re eating and what it does to your body. Calling out yourself, and the foods you eat.

All you need is:

1. How many calories in a serving
2. How big is a serving
3. How many calories can I have today
4. Self control
5. Water

Idk, I feel like if that was the plan it had the absolute opposite effect. All of my friends getting forced into tests that didn’t matter and getting suspended for getting beaten up made most of us realize that the school/govt had no clue what they were doing

Money I think is needed. It’s just an easy way to simplify transactions from person to person. If I need to pick up something I don’t have to carry around 3 chickens and a dozen eggs to barter for groceries, I just carry cash.

“Investing” however, is unneeded. There should be no real reason for people to purchase parts of someones business publicly and extract value from it. The companies don’t need the profit from rising stocks, they already have their profits. So all these snakes that buy shares and force companies to rip their guts and morals apart chasing “number go up” does nothing but enshittify products and companies until they’re too unstable to use.

If you want to keep loans, that’s fine, but then it needs to be private, and locally lended. Your lenders can’t provide more money than the local economy can provide and it only goes back into the community that made it. None of these faceless companies extracting billions from a community to some far off corporation.

The correct response is to find out who is responsible for the chaining/closing and start chaining/closing their stuff. Randomly messing with another park doesn’t hurt anyone and just means another park is closed.

Specifically not paying contractors. He would regularly hire contractors for jobs at Trump buildings/companies where it was x% up front and x% on completion. Then when they came for the completion percent he would just not pay and make them take him to court. Sometimes he paid, but other times they just couldn’t afford to litigate as long as he could so they’d get stiffed.

I think the better language is “you can be drunk 16 hours a day” which, some people are, and they’re certified alcohol addicts. So shoving Instagram in your brain the same way is the same disease, different symptoms.

Trump and Epstein they knew,

The most terrible things they could do,

Defile young kids, for the highest bids,

Then pass the bill on to you.

Not every day, but sometimes taking off your shoes when you know the day is over? Oh man the relief.
