Ok, but why do they even need side indicators? I thought socks could go on either foot.

Is own a grenade launcher for home defense, since that’s what the founding fathers intended. Four heathans break into me house. “Have at 'em lads” As I grab me scrumpeh and grenade launcher. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he’s dead on the spot. Quikie laucher on the second man, miss im entirely because it’s smoothbore and nails the enemy spy. I have to resort to the loose canon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with cannonball, “Not one of yas going to survive this!” the double donk gibs two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Grab me bottle o’ scrumpeh and charge the last terrified dadie prancin’ with a head full of eyeballs. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular glass wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

I know this is quite a bit later, but this comment confused me. I do not see how loosening zoning laws that limit density and banning corporations from owning houses are mutually exclusive.These policies can and should work together as part of a bigger urbanist policy. I also don’t see how supporting local developers is that bad of a thing. I’d rather have the money stay in the community and go to a community member than some multinational corporation who owns thousands of homes across the country. Still it isn’t the best. Cooperative housing or need based housing who is better, but realistically those can’t fill up the excess of stock that we need. We will need input from private developers, as well as a big government housing initiative.

Ramps, escalators, tiles, and seating. There is nothing inherently not accessible about subways, we just choose not to make them accessible. When I was in Japan, there didn’t seem to be any issue preventing wheelchair users, old people, or blind people from using the train system. Escalators can be used by people in wheel chairs and old people (and presumably blind people too, but I’m not sure.) There were tactile tiles in the floor to guide the blind, and there was plenty of seating specifically dedicated to old people, disabled people, and pregnant people. There were also wheelchair accessible cars on every train. As far as I could tell, it seemed just as accessible and easy to use for them as anyone else. (Also elevators were only usually kept open for the people who needed them)

“deregulation” detected. ready the down votes. /s

Seriously though, zoning laws are a big reason why we have the current housing crisis. If given the opportunity, someone or some business will build high density housing. But you can’t with he current implementation of zoning laws. Without that barrier, you would see a lot more high density building projects

Still we do need zoning laws. I don’t think anyone wants a factory or a garbage dump in their back yard. Used correctly zoning also helps limit sprawl.

Considering they directly communicate with Apples servers and make money from that…

But, isn’t that what APIs do? Why would that get Beeper in legal trouble if they are paying their license fee? I’m not being facetious, genuinely curious.

I like Will Wood, his stuff has been described as “evil jazz”, but it ranges from calm and soothing singer-songwriter type stuff to a full upbeat jazz band with chaotic composition and arrangement. I find his lyrics insightful, but they are also often quite abstract.

Cute girls doing cute things have some nice tracks, but many of them feel a bit the same-y.

The Vienna Clarinet Collection has great covers of classic clarinet songs, but classical and jazz.

I couldn’t choose one, so here are a few jazz bands I like: Francis Coppieters, Loftys Comet, T-Square, Micheal Lowerstern, Archie Shepp, Sons of Kemet, and Mansur Brown

If it works, sell or donate it. If it doesn’t work, you can see if it is worth repairing. If it’s not, recycle it. You can check on your municipality’s website on their waste management page to see if they recycle electronics.

If you do sell, donate, or recycle, make sure there is no data on the drives that you would miss, then wipe it. If you plan on recycling, you can take out the drive and destroy it. Magnets and paper shredders are helpful.

Are ya a smart fella, of a fart smella?

what makes you think any attempt is being made to avoid civilian casualties?

they aren’t operating under best practices.

I don’t

Disable/delete YouTube in your settings and go to settings - apps - default apps - opening links, press on the newpipe app and enable opening links, you may have to add supported links manually

(Not disagreeing, but offering a bit more insight)

To be fair, what the IDF is doing is hard. Fighting irregular forces in dense urban environments is hard, especially with their opponents having hundreds of underground bunkers and using civilian shields. Even if they were operating under best practice, there would be a lot of civilian casualties.

However, they aren’t operating under best practices. I don’t know how the average IDF soldier feels, but the top brass at best doesn’t give a shit if they kill a hundred palestinian civilians per one Hamas member; At worst, they see this conflict as an excuse to actively target them.

Georgism (Land Value Tax) enters the chat

You know maybe I will because the number went down

I was joking in a satirical manner in a way to mimic the tone of the op, while pointing out how some people is this community take these kinds of memes too seriously, but I guess I wasn’t funny or clever :

Inb4 lib complains about how satirical memes promote drunk driving and killing cyclists, somehow

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

This talking point doesn’t make sense to me because feminine and masculine voices sound different, so it would make sense that some aspects maybe annoying one a feminine voice and not a masculine voice, and vice versa. Also, I don’t think that some of the source of annoyance comes from the voice itself, but it’s cultural association. The reason why it is so annoying to me is because I associate it with vanity and celebrity worship (probably because of the Kardashians, couldn’t tell you which one as I try to avoid them at all costs).
