Shout out to Lala at this point for just fucking quitting. It probably sucked major ass for her
Well you do elect the god king that can supercede all other powers at all times. I mean sometimes the god king doesn't even have the backing of half the people who showed up to vote, sure, but that doesn't mean you can't give him supreme powers over all, surely? We got this 250 year old rag that says he does if interpreted by people directly benefitting from that being the case and where would we be if we weren't beholden to 200 year dead slaveowners?
it is not, but thank you
Just use OSM then what the hell
The event, titled Safeguarding Children’s Education, had been organised by the Natural Women’s Council and involved several notorious far-right campaigners.
My hitler particle detector just exploded
Through targeting parents and educators, the group claimed to want “to protect young minds from radical ideologies, social justice activism and political influence.”
Honestly every group that wants things "unpolitical" should be considered a cult at this point
there's quite the b-story to arhus12's comment about assigning cars the sentience of a horse
You're missing out. The chinese got the better dental plan, but true pros do it for the russians - their non denominational christmas partys are insane
you do this voluntarily?
The whole thing is pretty consistent if you're on board with "Working 80 hour weeks at the puppy kicking factory vs. starve to death" is a free choice. Friedman here isn't wrong about the quote, he's much more wrong on a much deeper level
It truly is incredible how the Wehrmacht, composed of nothing but unwillingly conscripted medics, truck drivers and radio operators, managed to take over so much of europe

New and wired: Using "dutch courage" to being overly optimistic about what you can carry on a bicycle and then just doing it
Frame made out of bamboo, pictured here is a My Boo that touts a partnership with a fair trade social program in Ghana to make the frames.
It's supposed to be more ecological, for obvious reasons. Weight on one is about 15kg, which is pretty good for a kitted out city bike.
I can't speak to longevity of this and whether it actually pans out vs. say, a steel bike that you keep welding back together, on account of these haven't really been around too long. It's held together via a composite glue made out of hemp and resin, so at least they're following through here I suppose.
Reviews I've read is that the ride quality is really nice, being stiff yet compliant in the ride cases as to not make it a boneshaker.
Price of these is, obviously, fairly high, these'd run you around 3000€ euros, I'd argue a comparable bike made out of traditional materials would run you maybe 800€ new. But I'd argue it's more a proof of concept.
I also sell to individual customers but you're gonna either have to be a pretty good runner to keep up or rather more dexterious so you can cycle next to me. Close passing cars and bike lane parkers get a nice squirt of mustard on the roof
Pictured here is the new spacecamper, usually a business for converting vans and such into campers, for cargo bikes.
I'm kind of undecided on this. It feels very convenient, unless you have an ultralight tent the weight of your bike, and your supplies and the tent and the bags and whatnot seems sort of the same as this stuff.
What do we think about the concept? Cool idea to incorporate your bicycle into your sleeping arrangement for trips or dumb playtoy?
I'm not blaming you but whose fault is that? Add that shit to OSM! Don't work for the assholes coasting off of FOSS labour of other people, subvert them!
