You’re saying the Bill of Rights sucks because it’s not complete and total?

Is not in the Constitution.

You sure got me. Are you also responsible for everything your government does?

I’m, uh, curious. Protesting what? To who?

Like, I get that the American government has been exceptionally shitty, but I don’t see what a Canadian protest is gonna do about it.

I pray that we’ll return to being a reasonable neighbor asap. I promise we’re feeling it more than you are.

The subject matter isn’t the parodied thing. It’s not making fun of Tetris. It’s using Tetris in a pretty unrelated way to its actual purposes.

“Gaps”. There’s more ocean than land.

Most of us aren’t on farms. But yeah, if you are I’d definitely look into it. Especially if you’re running large refrigerators and/or freezers.

Dude, all you need to do is spend $13k for one of these,

And then mount it 30 feet above the tallest tree or building near you.

How hard can it be?

I’ve looked into it for exactly this reason. 1 kW at night would go a long, long way for me. It doesn’t work.

If you’re lucky, a small turbine might be able to charge your phone. Maybe. Intermittently.

The turbines scale exponentially with blade size, not linearly. And none of it works well at suburb/city height. You need this things 100ft in the air with large blades.

At that point you might as well get a real one and power your neighborhood. Those things really don’t scale down effectively.

He’s had to adjust quite a bit I’d say he’s thoroughly and well adjusted.

Which one?

Also too cowardly to include either Bush or Reagan.

You’re… leaning back against the seat?

From my brief research it seems it’s about a 50/50 split of profits (corporate measures in gross revenue though, so no Hollywood accounting to get out of it), and a large chunk of the corporate half goes to advertising.

I expected his first term to go much as his first term actually did. I expected his second term to be worse, but not this much worse.

If he was going to dismantle NATO, I would have expected him to do it shortly after Putin got him elected.

Yeah, if you don’t do any political activism, and you don’t say things that are unapproved too loudly, and you don’t end up at one of those slave labor (BYD) or corpo plants with the suicide netting, then you can certainly get by with the way things are.

But political activism and freedom of speech and the bill of rights is also how we make things better. Without those, and without people who fought for those, we wouldn’t have “the weekend” as a concept.

And with how much efficiency has risen over the last hundred years, we should be able to do better than just the weekend.

Well these days credit cards have an authorization function where they can hold $50 or $100 and then when done can release the hold and charge you the proper amount.

And cash is rare enough that they don’t mind inconveniencing those people anymore.

Late, after the publicity, yeah.

Isn’t this old? Is this just regurgitated slop?
