unfortunately 500 errors and what not plague me today. I check in to fedia.io, infrequently but I hope the situation can improve at some point.

For MTG and conservatives in general, woke or communism just means "(the acts of) people we don't like"

The only thing that caught my eye is the age of the video. I'll upvote it but that fact might drag on people's responses.

The main point of this video was their lethality to pedestrians and especially children. It has to do with the hood obscuring the driver's view. I've seen the spread of vehicles like this and even a fairly tall person is mostly obscured by these monstrosities.

In addition, large heavy vehicles destroy roads at an insane rate. These vehicles will drive cities to financial ruin even faster than suburban development with passenger car wear and tear

In terms of production values and scripting NJB is always top tier.

Ohhh so that's what's up. I see them pop every now and then, usually when I first jump on.

The top priority should be remaking housing so it doesn't require power to keep up comfortable (and everything else so we don't need power to enjoy it).

Iran has had this knowledge for over 1000 years. Termites longer. It's utter insanity not to do this. We imagine we live in a fast changing high tech civilization but our 'solutions' are to pretend renewables will let us carry on like before. Rural folk in Bangladesh have adapted to seasonal flooding by taking to living on boats for part of the year, their gardens on them providing shade under the vines. They've already adapted. The West, not so much.

Ah Pompeii and its graffiti. For all the tech, people and their political problems as well are still the same.

The assumption here is the CEO is unusually smart

Oh I think it's the fine rarified air they breathe and Musk, well he has a well known record. /s
