Yeah, from East Texas and having lived in Estonia, American fascination and glorification of violence is insane looking from the outside.

Honestly, that is a great a reply. I especially agree that some dams on the Mississippi need to destroyed and have agriculture be moved away from the river, as the dead zone in Gulf of Mexico is caused by upstream agriculture states.

Sounds like most American metropolitan areas.

I feel bad for guy who tweeted as someone from East Texas. Main reasons I want to go into hunting is to the keep wild boar population in check, or at least slow their growth.

Yeaahhh, as interesting (and mildly funny) as it is, this a very online taxonomy. Don't really care much for it.

Lets see if it passes the House now. Overall, as presented by the article, it makes sense limiting who can receive the credit based on income level and car price. It will create more "working-class" EVs that a middle-class consume

Agreed. It is honestly, a failure of government policy, from the local level to the state and to the Federal government.

Yeah, as someone who grew up (and still is) lower middle class near rural areas, DGs and the like served a niche that would be hard-press to be filled by other companies, national or local. So I can't really blame a company for taking

Honestly, no in the tech field at all, I would be surprised anywhere is paying Bay Area salaries in US besides maybe NYC or some other high COL area.

As an aspiring writer, the Internet has made it possible for small publishing houses to carve out niches, and made self-publishing more possible. While there is increased competition, it has allowed many writing voices to be heard that woul

So at redlights you need to turn off your car, then turn it back on when it changes to green EDIT: Specify the part of the post that bewildered me.

As the previous commented said, it is how much energy is left in the battery as the site is solar powered and goes down sometimes. While I can tolerate it, I do agree it is really annoying from a user experience POV.

I am pro-Nuclear as the next guy, both from environmental and job creation perspective. But renewable can reduce emissions and has been proven to do so.

Agreed with you. I just find it an step towards defining what Section 230 cover legally.

Honestly, results are not surprising. Most people who would move out of the city for teleworking would probably move to cheaper suburbs for two main reasons: 1) They might need to head into the office for facetime in situations where workin

As a "native" Texan, whose family has lived in the state for seven generations, it is really beautiful. Especially during road trips as the state changes from east to west. Gonna miss it when I leave.

Agreed. Even Reuters News is high quality in comparison to CNN and Fox News.

I am using Brave, which is Chromium based, and I had no problem loading the article. Sucks to hear you having that issue.

Some reason HN didn't notify me you replied. Weird. Anyways, I hypothesize that some TV shows from taking place in Iceland brought a lot of attention to the landscape which was capitalized on by the Tourism departement.

by lostandbored 5y ago
Definitely. Since 2013, Iceland has been advertised more as a tourist destination leading to more tourists.

Not surprised to see this posted here already. Anyways, I find the idea presented in the article really interesting, and I honestly can see this system being used in cities that are "Degrowing" to provide similar services on a sli

Twine is a great tool. However like the article mentions, its use cases are limited and honestly fulfill a small niche in the interactive medium. As a writer, I have a couple stories that I could tell with twine. However, beyond that, I don

The title line did not do the article any justice. Personally, I love the contents of the article. Just wish the editor gave it a better title.

>"Classist" is adjacent to the right term for my attitude here but its not quite right. Conflict of belief systems or maybe anomie?
