essellburns,

In terms of Carbon, they produce about one third of the damage which an equivalent internal combustion engine car would.

There’s a lot of factors that go into the final figures, like the specifics of the vehicle and the source of the energy used to charge it.

It’s a bit like vaping instead of smoking. Neither are good for you but one is clearly worse than the other.

essellburns,

That’s the best figure I’ve seen for the total lifetime impact.

It depends on a like for like comparison. A really massive and inefficient EV will not stack up so well against a small efficient ICE, for example.

There’s just too much variation for any one figure to be both simple and accurate

essellburns,

Not if you take the median average, most will be within one standard deviation.

A Colorado town's newspapers were stolen after a story about rape charges at the police chief's house (apnews.com)

Nearly all the copies of a small-town Colorado newspaper were stolen from racks on the same day it published a story about charges being filed over rapes alleged to have occurred at an underage drinking party at the police chief’s house while the chief was asleep.

essellburns,

Well, if it isn’t the Streisand effect in action.

Horrible local story becomes massive story because of the coverup.

essellburns,

Everything in Blackadder

Once they’ve got that, move on to Malcolm Tucker level insults

essellburns,

Jeremy Clarkson (RIP) once talked through the humour of Bob with Rowan Atkinson. It was a good explanation.

essellburns,

I’m not American so I’m a bit unclear, however this photo has me wondering.

Was the civil war about the confederacy trying to ban having hair on your head?

essellburns,

It’s a disappointment the Republicans shifted their main focus from individual liberty to having clandestine gay sex in public bathrooms.

essellburns,

Indeed. Clandestine gay sex in public bathrooms is potentially a wonderful thing, just like individual liberty.

essellburns,

Can we call it kindertherapy then?

essellburns,

I think we can safely assume that “pretty major UX updates” means pushing the services they want us to use over user preferences

essellburns,

I’ve been shocked by the way people will believe violent Demagogues who convince them horrible things are okay if they’re doing them for the benefit of their group of people.

The number of conspiracy theories people of the past were willing to believe about queer folk, foreign people and anyone who didn’t conform is absolutely staggering.

Glad we out grew that.

essellburns,

Either end of the scale is clear. Less clear in the middle 😞

essellburns,

Do you want evil ant armies? Because this is how you get evil ant armies.

essellburns,

I think there will still be ambitious and creative stuff being made.

It’ll just be in the minority, the bulk being predictable and repetitive.

I’m reasonably confident this has always been the case and we see the past through the rose tinted glasses of selection bias.

essellburns,

Adding my Voice for Zero Hour. Excellent game. the multiplayer, skirmish and campaign modes all have something to offer.

It’s crying out for a proper remake. Just a modern patch. Don’t change anything, just make it work easier, especially the networking

essellburns,

What a beautiful contrast in this thread.

One response with a pointless political slogan and the other with an informed reflective response.

Doesn’t matter what “side” we take compared to the significance of knowing what you’re talking about.

essellburns,

His lawyers are so taking this guy for a ride.

They must know this how insane this is, surely? Just gonna get those billable hours!

essellburns,

Just change it up once in a while

That’s what the memes are trying to achieve!

essellburns,

28 Years Later in Development as Sequel to Beloved Zombie Classic, And it Could be a Trilogy - Report (nordic.ign.com)

The glaring error here is that “28 Weeks Later” from 2007 is ignored as it was the first sequel. Therefore the upcoming third movie wouldn’t be “the start of a trilogy” but the end of it. Of course “28 Weeks Later” is mentioned but otherwise the article words the sequel talk in a clumsy manner.

essellburns, (edited )

And of course the prequal, “28 days”, staring Sandra Bullock is overlooked at as always

essellburns,

Coz they used a different writer and director I guess.

essellburns,

Who’s directing this? Zeno?

essellburns,

Not exactly a civil war, I think the phrase “Texas Flash Mob” captures that event best.

The kind of place where the people dying are a footnote under the politics
