Brexit has left the building. :(

That aside, i dont agree and this way lies stagnation.

The Russian Government has nothing in common with the goals of climate mitigation nor does the US government for that matter. The US and Russian government’s for example are well aligned in the biospheres destruction.

If you’re not closing airports, banning cars, rebuilding roads and car parks with cycling and small medium density well insulated with and shrubs and trees around s, solar on the roof, closing roads and buildong electrified trains, if you’re not banning meat eating pet ownership, cruise ships, personal yachts, jet skis, power boats, banning advertising then you’re going the wrong way.

All we get fron cooperation is slight incrementism that’s then argued away.

My proof ? We’re not even taking baby steps in the rihht dirction, if we were it would have at least paused CO2 emissions with a slight decline but April saw the single largest increase in CO2ppm ever recorded and people are jetting around the world to attend a Taylor Swift concert in response.

I am not sure the author understands the word threat?

Chinese tax payers subsidising the world’s transition to electric mass transit is a good thing.

While there is more then a grain of truth to this, still seems to be time for distracted voters to watch Netflix, goto concerts, watch movies, goto sporting events. You’re not going to get out from under any of this by substituting screeching about the need to pay bills, for activism.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bread_and_circuses

Juvenal originally used it to decry the “selfishness” of common people and their neglect of wider concerns. The phrase implies a population’s erosion or ignorance of civic duty as a priority

You can be distracted and not Vote GOP for example.

29" ebike. Giant or Merida, they are like Toyota, mostly reliable, well priced, most boring but normally well made. I have a Giant… The more you pay normally the better you get with diminishing returns though. Maybe Trek as well ?

Depending on the front fork it will have a QR lever or a thru Axel, either way you’ll be able to take the front off easily to load it into a car. Not so the back wheel albeit it can be done if you have to. Ebikes are heavy, onto the roof is probably out.

I remember reading once an interview with an Australian female MTB racer who used to race road and swapped to MTB, she said she tought it would be like riding a road bike on dirt trails and as she said, it’s NOTHING like that.

If you take to it you’ll be more in tune with a better bike to suit your needs in a couple more years. If you buy something too cheap you WILL be disappointed as it will let you down. Off road is much harder on the bike.

Bikes are stupidly priced.

Good luck and have fun

White women are his majority

Whatever he’s saying resonates with them

It’s time to stop coddling white women when they bolster white supremacy, and to push for concrete acts of solidarity

Yes, 55 Percent of White Women Voted for Trump. No, I’m Not Surprised.

They don’t care. They are lazy cowards who will give up everyone’s rights for a false sense of safety.

Thats how it is for most of humanity, from Hitler, through Putin, to Trump, same playbook to appeal to the 80%

“Susan Sontag was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be moved in either direction” —Kurt Vonnegut

I don’t believe you. What you’re describing in regards the weather is most of Australia and it’s even more car dependent then the US. If you were there, you’d drive.

It’s snow bound northern Euro countries that are way more advanced in being car free then sunny warm countries. Have you seen Manila? Jakarta ?

Dude, you realty knife :)

I have 1 Spyderco and 1 Leatherman that’s about 30 years old. I used the latter when I off road motorcycle toured decades ago.

What are the most private social media platforms?

I’ve been feeling uneasy about the privacy implications of using Lemmy and similar platforms. The ability for anyone to view your entire posting history feels to me like publicly sharing my browser history. In contrast, most other social media platforms allow you to limit your feed visibility to just friends or followers....

Goto social ?

@hanrahan@slrpnk.net avatar

A perfectly private social media service could be constructed but it likely won’t because there is no profit motive.

And here it is, that thing you said most likely won’t be…

gadgeteer.co.za/gotosocial-is-a-new-activitypub-s…

Even if it were, how many people would truly use it.

To be social, 3 people, maybe 5 is all you’d need.

As to proft motive, maybe you’re not aware of FOSS?

I suspect developers are gonna stop developing.

That’s what happened here in Australia and homes and condos (apartments) have gone from horrendously expensive to ridiculously horrendous expensive.

We don’t build homes to house people either. Unlike say these guys
