There is SO much empty ass space in the south west of the US, why the fuck would you go out of your way to deforest an area? Stop proposing solar in areas that don’t get as much sun as the south west, this is political nonsense bullshit. Put pressure on Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Colorado to install more solar. California already has the most solar of any state by a huge margin.
That hurts my brain. We made it to the fucking moon, figured out nuclear power, and yet we have people doing that shit? Reality is an amazing inequitable shit show.
Where’s your evidence proving exactly how much Starship has cost in total? Or wait, maybe you are just making bullshit up because you have no idea how much it has actually cost them because they don’t disclose that information like NASA does.
It’s absolutely insane that we would protect corporations from public competition. Restricting public options is absurd, just another example of why things have gotten so shitty and expensive. It’s absolutely apparent that our government is controlled by big money corporations.
Fuck that title. No such thing as too many solar panels. The only thing that is bad is how the energy is used or if it’s wasted. Free energy should mean algae production which would mean carbon negativity. Negative energy price should mean negative carbon emissions, get on it.
Holy shit I thought this was The Onion. They are clinging at straws. Fuck corporate greed, all my homies hate big corporations. Never flying with them again.
This is a part of the beginning of it. Centralization results in layoffs and worse products. This is why we have antitrust laws, now they go unenforced because of corruption. AI is going to replace a lot of jobs and we’re going to get shittier products while the winning corporations continue to make more money. Winner take all system is bad for everyone.
Great bandaid. Now stop all federal student loans otherwise this problem is just going to continue. The idea of the government cyclically giving out loans and then cancelling them is the stupidest shit I keep reading as a valid solution.

The grip of the pistol has a nook in it, the handle at the top is much more narrow. It creates the illusion that her thumb is really long, but really most of her palm is behind the pistol grip because it’s so much wider at the base it hides it.
You’re referring to something that is changing and getting better constantly. In the long term LLMs are going to be even better than they are now. It’s ridiculous to think that it won’t be able to replace any of the workers that were fired. LLMs are going to allow 1 person to do the job of multiple people. Will it replace all people? No. But even if it allows 1 person to do the job of 2 people, that’s 50% of the workforce unemployed. This isn’t even mentioning how good robotics have gotten over the past 10 years.
If we get another 4 years of Trump, at least we’ll know why. The system just needs less people to vote for Trump to win. If we get another 4 years of Trump it’s going to be Biden’s fault, not mine.
