Was it everyone? Do we have any information on whether there were any sensible people refusing to take part in this?

Probably the only good moment in all of season 3 frankly.

I can appreciate the sentiment, but do you honestly believe that Trump & friends need an excuse? They've fabricated every justification they've wanted in the past, so I don't see how this makes him more or less likely to do Something Else Evil.

If anything, I would think it would give them pause. A brazen political assassination like this might suggest that their opposition might do more than march peacefully in the streets while he dismantles the country.

I really missed this when I switched from Konqueror to Firefox a long time ago. Nice to see it happening.

Fuck that. Roll out the red carpet for him and then chuck him in prison.

While I welcome this sort of development, but without a safe and cheap way to store that power, the usefulness is limited. Most people aren't home during the day.

If you’re a Windows user

So no then.

This is really the big problem, but it's solved if it's implemented with a simultaneous crossing for bikes & pedestrians (aka scramble intersections). Without that, turning left means waiting through two (sometimes three!) red lights.

Source: we have one of these here in Cambridge (UK) and they haven't implemented the simultaneous crossing. It's untenable, so cyclists (myself included) do all sorts of dangerous things just to avoid the ridiculous wait times.

The most upsetting thing about all of this is that it lays bare the truth that the reason we don't fight climate change is that there's not enough profit in it.

Capitalism needs to die, or it's going to kill us all.

That is.... nuts. Is your home listed or something or is this must the council being crazy?

Yes and no. So long as the air temp outside is higher than the inside, you should close and shutter all windows regardless of the direct sunlight.
