Adding mass transit, incentives for work-from-home, etc. are all good. Taxing miles driven will reduce miles driven. Just taxing EV miles to make up for lost gas tax revenue probably won't affect miles driven, except for EV drivers. It provides no new reason for GVs to drive less.

But, Brawndo has what plants crave. It has electrolytes.

Would you want to be responsible for checking IDs over the internet? No sane company would want to be responsible for getting it wrong.

Also, would you be willing to send a scan of your drivers license to a porn website? Any website?

This would work, but it would be better if you had to pay for by the miles on your vehicle rather than tolls on any particular road.

I'm sorry, but I CANNOT agree. Coffee smells MUCH BETTER than weed. In fact, I think weed smells terrible. It reminds me of skunks. I would much rather smell coffee.

I've been on Mastodon for little more than a year. People here have been generally polite and give each other the benefit of the doubt. I have yet to see a "flame war" as we used to call it on USENET. But Mastodon (and Kbin and Lemmy) instances will have to decide if they will federate with Meta's new platform. I'm pretty vehemently opposed, but my Mastodon admin seems to think we should wait and see. So here we have Meta, which hasn't joined the fediverse, has already begun fragmenting us. Is that our fault? Maybe. But I don't think we're the problem.

I have been writing to my county school board to ask them to abandon twitter. It is used by principals, coaches, and others in the county system all the time. I explain that the values of the school system do not align with the values demonstrated by the platform. So far I've heard crickets back. :-(

I can't stand searching for a product on Amazon anymore. If I really want to use Amazon, it's much more efficient to find the amazon link using duck duck go.

What? Haven't you heard about trickle-down economics? Are you saying trickle-down doesn't work?!?!

I also like Tusky for Mastodon because you can also use it to open up your Pixelfed account.

I don't care for Karma-farming, but I liked having some way to tell if someone was a real community member or a throw-away account. I liked that there were some subreddits that wouldn't let you post if you had low karma because it helped hold back the trolls.
