The rest are just jealous. 

I got them out just to submit this comment.

Pull her plate; America is out of room for more bad taste. 

...Am I supposed to side with the minivan lady? Because I don’t. She sounds like she wants to be offensive for the exclusive intent of being offensive. Society won’t lose anything here.

To me, the order does seem simple, but there’s an inexplicable lack of will to do it:

Every so often I’m reminded of just how screwed we are as a species. Things need to change, but in order for those things (whichever you choose) to change, other things need to change first, but for those things to change... you get the idea.

Different strokes for different folks (had to be said). My philosophy has always been, why not both?

“This all seems a tad extreme to me. I’d reckon police in Japan (and around the world for that matter) should be more focused on far more dangerous and important crimes. But I guess a dude selling some modified save files for an old Switch game is also important too... to someone.”

And again: All transportation combined (Planes, Trains, Automobiles and Boats) is 14%, and non-industrial transport amounts to a little less than half that (We’ll round it up to an even 7% though). So even if tomorrow we just snapped our fingers and made every single car and small truck on the planet electric, we’d…

You might laugh, but remember what happened to Ben back in the Majora’s Mask days? Ben drowned

Personally I hope they throw the book at him. My brother died of modified zelda save files. 

You misunderstood, the point being made there is that energy production accounts for more emissions than cars and that it should be a bigger priority.

I guess it comes down to where you ride and what your goal is. I’ve owned 2 and 4 strokes ( currently have one of each). No doubt in my my mind that my ‘18 Husky TE250 (last year of the carb’d 2-stroke bikes before they got TPI) is more fun than my ‘19 Husky FX450 (EFI 4 stroke), but I am faster and get better results…

I am all for nuclear power.

Nuclear power baby!

Also it’s just silly how little gummybears fusion research gets. I mean few years back Apple used more on R&D than was used globally on fusion. I mean one is supposed to save the world, another is for sharing cat videos on social media.

Agreed, no free lunches.

Even a smaller 4-stroke can make more power - an Aprilia RXV 450 makes 60hp stock compared to 55 from the CR500 engine.

I totally agree. Factories need to get cleaner before cars. 

I think I said that here once and was shot down. I agree with you. There are many reasons why EV’s are being pushed, but I have a feeling that it’s not the panacea the “pie in the sky” folks think it is.

Van, down by the river.
