I haven’t owned a car for twenty years. I was lucky to spend most of that time in Chicago, which has great (comparatively) public transit, a lot of taxis, Uber and Lyft. It was almost never a problem. I think I needed a car five times in fifteen years.

Rich people blocking clean energy to preserve their views is a dick move regardless of what their political beliefs are. That they’re liberals also makes them hypocrites. Same for the people that defend them.

What you think about the Kennedys is irrelevant. That they fought Cape Wind to protect their views from Hyannisport is fact.

Fuck these NIMBY motherfuckers. You explain the math and it’s “I feel this, I heard that, wah wah, let’s spend an extra $110 million to run power lines through a nature reserve so my golf course view stays pristine.”

Yeah, I love the arguments the Kennedys and their ilk trotted out against Cape Wind.  

We’re about two weeks away from this not being sarcastically floated by rightwing gun nuts.

Maybe every classroom should come with a shape charge to blast a doorway out? /s

Apple, I know you aren’t looking at this, but please make the notifications at the top less intrusive. They don’t need to be as big as they are. A simple small bar will suffice.

Just the weight on top of the wall is going to press those blocks more tightly together. Look at all those blocks that move up. That’s not gonna happen IRL.

Sounds like SOMEONE is trying to keep water cannons out of the hands of law-abiding ‘Muricans!!!!!!!

In California, at least, block walls need to be reinforced, and there should be a bond beam at the top. The cannon might make a dent in such a wall, but won’t shatter it as it does with non-reinforced block walls with no bond beam.

There are in my state too. (I also think they look just fine) - Because I am in an oil producing state governed by a super majority of oil baron fellating morons.

The price is meh, like a 100 dollars more than any other phone on the market, so big deal?

Most new phones these days have a notch, and that quickly vanishes from sight after a few minutes of use.

Android phones won’t have buttons for long either gurl.

The fact that you never used one shows here, because face recognition

Related: Even when you delete that screenshot from the screenshot tool after tapping ‘Done’, those images still end up in your Photo Stream. You may not see them when you view your Stream on the phone, but open Photos in macOS or via iCloud.com and there they are.

I was skeptical, at first, but after 2 months using it, the notch, and the no buttons are non issues. Rather than a “notch”, I think of it as a chopped status bar. Gestures take maybe a few days to get used to, but they’re more comfortable (less physical force required) than clicking a physical button. Face

That would account for the massive piles of dead birds at the base of each turbine........... Oh wait. No dead birds? Maybe it was all a rumor put out by someone with an ax to grind.

Don’t blame the phone. You’re not holding it right.

“But, Narrator,” I can hear you asking, “why is it that when I drive, I see so many wind turbines not turning?” Well, that’s an easy and multi-part answer, my dear questioner. Recall the gearbox we discussed. Well, that’s not a variable speed gearbox, so the generator in a turbine can only effectively generate

While I’m not into 50ft props littering my dense suburban area, I’d definitely welcome individual vertical axis egg beaters.
