Parking minimums are systematic oppression by car lobbyists against all others forms of transport. Yeah I said it.
  • Seriously, its like you've never played Sim City or Cities Skylines. If you are going to rezone or redesign districts and remove parking then you need to, like everyone else is saying, maximize public transit and walkability. Without doing that you are just creating an urban desert.

  • That type of comment may have gone over well back on reddit but, sir, we are not idiots here. UTTER BULLSHIT, LEFTISTS DO NOT WANT TO TAKE AWAY YOUR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS. We want that right too. We just don't want mentally ill people having access to assault weapons with which they can kill many, many people with significantly reduced effort. Someone going on a rampage with a pistol or a shotgun is far less deadly than someone with a long rifle of any type, especially automatic rifles. BULL-FUCKING-SHIT LEFTIST DO NOT WANT TO TAKE THAT RIGHT AWAY.

  • If there was a 90s retro aesthetic similar to the current 80s neon and synthwave like the 80s never were - what would it be like?
  • It'd be Niravana done in the style of Phil Collins while the video shows a vhs recording of people partying on a beach in board shorts and bikinis flanked by skaters in JNCO jeans with POGs glued to their skateboards with a club in the background that's called "The Edge", which is brightly adorned with a combination of "that cup design" and the pastel RGBY in geometric shapes while inside its actually got a simultaneous jungle and future aesthetic.

  • Marjorie Taylor-Greene was right!
  • I also remember seeing a scene in a science fiction movie that had an apparent HAARP facility firing some weird laser system and having it actually do some type of weather or space manipulation. So it's been in the public eye for a long time as some major conspiracy theory. I just wish I could remember what the movie was.

  • I'm not usually one to call for "nanny" laws or regulations but those types of situations are just the perfect excuse for having filters trapped in a captive device that can only be opened by licensed mechanics. Sure there would likely end up being a grey or black market of third party workaround devices. It happens in any situation with regulations. Its just ridiculous that the knuckleheads are able to make and keep enough money to spend on some of the more ridiculous clown monster trucks on public roads.

  • One point I have to disagree on is the point you made about nuclear energy. Its untrue. If we switched to primarily using nuclear energy we would be able to successfully power the majority of the species using that technology. Its fear that stops us. Everyone is worried about another Chernobyl or Fukushima. When the logical course of action would be to find tectonically stable sites for any nuclear facilities. That'd be number one to solving a lot of meltdown concerns. The other would be to use well researched and planned designs. Chernobyl was a faulty design for a reactor that should never have been allowed to be produced.

    Lookup Thorium reactors. Those are the true future of nuclear technology. Thorium is also abundant when compared to Uranium or Plutonium. It does not have the same weaponization issues. It does not produce the same high levels of radiation. It is also safer to handle and store once depleted.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium_fuel_cycle#Thorium-fueled_reactors "Using breeder reactors, known thorium and uranium resources can both generate world-scale energy for thousands of years. "

    Literally with nuclear power we can power the whole world for the next 2,000 to 3,000 years. Possibly longer. It's fear that holds us back on this.

  • ‘We should have better answers by now’: climate scientists baffled by unexpected pace of heating
  • Its cause none of these systems are static or by themselves in a vacuum. There are feedback loops in all parts of our environment. Its not a coincidence that the temperature started to accelerate after the recent series of MAJOR volcanic eruptions in the many parts of the worlds oceans. Throw in the absolute monstrosity that is human industry and well the feedback there is more heat from industry combined with greenhouse gases means the the heat in those areas rises. What does heat do? It rises and moves outwards until it reaches equilibrium. Where is it cold? The arctic and antarctic. What's happening in those places recently? Oh yeah huge spikes in temperature that are causing shifts by over 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit or about 8-10 degrees celsius. Sure it's technically still freezing over the arctic and antarctic for portions of the year. However the arctic has, for the last several years during summer, been almost entirely ice free. The North fucking Pole is ice free during the summer time. That's fucking insane. Everything feeds into everything else with our environment and climate.

    Until more people in power actually understand these facts, we are all going to suffer needlessly.
