Always impressive how they manage to let idiots parrot every long disproven “argument” completely unquestioned. Peak journalism as usual. As if there weren’t enough studies showing that removing parking spots for pedestrian and cycling infrastructure actuall increases walk-in customers and revenue for all shops nearby.


Isn’t that the point here? Mode of transportation doesn’t matter. People seem to quite universally set the same limits and it’s based on time needed. Better, faster or more efficient modes of transportation simply change the distance people consider for jobs.


It’s only baffling if you pretend that they are not actively trying to inconvenience cyclists with bad infrastructure.
In my city (in Germany) I have to do these kind of maneuvers every few meters as streetlights and even some signs and trees are intentionally put close to the center line of bike lanes barely 1 meter wide.


analysts believe SpaceX is “significantly overvalued”
So a perfectly normal US tech company, operating in a stock market that totally decoupled from economic reality quite some time ago.
Wow… finally one I don’t understand.
The thing about waether control in funny (or sad - depending on perspective^), but what is the point about knowing in which direction the sun moves? Doesn’t everyone learn that in the first years of their life?


upgrade to next kernel version != patch the kernel with backported security fixes


I seriously looked up photos to see if those eyes were edited…
…and omg, this isn’t even one of the worst pictures out there.
No consequences, no change.
That’s wrong. Without consequences there will be change, always to the worse, always seeing if they can get away with even more insane things.


So when you do a movie based on several seasons of (even multiple) streamed series the pool of people watching it is limited to the hardcore franchise fans that saw them all and actually know what it’s about? How surprising… 🤣
Debian daring to suggest that using your real name to identify yourself on the system is a reasonable choice for most people. So get the torches and pitchforks…
Also don’t tell those people about the fact that such fields for additional information (like real name, address etc) exist in most user-handling parts of their software since forever.
You get asked for your real name when creating a new user for longer than Linux even exists. It’s just that noone actually cares. But now that’s suddenly an horrific anti privacy policy because the narrative demand that it is.

The US got lazy because the leading role of the dollar in global finances actually made it so much easier for them than for anyone else to run on debt without actually paying that much.
Could they still have spend the money more efficiently? Sure, but some waste in a system that naturally ran better than anyone elses public finances wasn’t much of a problem.
The US keeping up current foreign policies and making former long-term allies divest from the US and from the dollar as the de facto global currency is what weakens the US at an incredible pace.


“Your” clock is bad, usually ranging from a 23 to 25 hour cycle naturally. The sun is what constantly adjusts it to match 24 hours.
The people with a natural inner clock of more than 24 hours (those are the majority btw) need the sunrise to tell their bodies “hey, you might think its still time to sleep because you are on hours #25 of your day/night cycle, but it’s time to wake up” and the sunset for “it might feel like there is still another hour of day but it’s time to get tired and got to sleep”.
Moving sunset/-rise an hour back really screws with their inner clocks. And “I just feel that one hour more of light in the evening is better” (the usual argument of the daylight savinf time as standard time side) does not beat actual biology and damning more than half of the people to a constant state of light sleep deprivation.


Calling science (biology in this case) bullshit sums up a US-centric discussion perfectly…


Correct, it’s not magic. It’s biology. Light, mostly natural light, is what controls your daily rhythm and what constantly resets your biological clock to a 24 hours cycle when it’s by default not that good and might range from 23 to 25 hours naturally.
The latter fact is also responsible for natural early birds or natural late risers because those are people with a natural inner clock more leaning to the 23 hour or 25 hour side respectively.
And that’s where things actually get interesting. The majority belongs to the second group. They are also the one most suffering from our modern style of life. Because while the early bird can just start the day a bit slower and can voluntarily go to sleep an hour earlier when his inner clock tells him the day is over (that free time after all), the late risers don’t have that choice. Neither can they just sleep a bit longer matching their “but my 25-hour of day/night are not done yet”-cycle because they have to get to work, nor can they go to bed an hour earlier to get enough sleep because they are simple not tired yet and still in day mode.
And there is exactly one thing that helps those people to not live in a constant state of light sleep deprivation. Earlier sunrises and sunsets to adjust there biological clock to better work with a 24 hours duration. Daylight saving times does the opposite and hurts the portion of the population already badly adjusted to hour modern day cycle (again: they are the majority, too).


How is it possible we can spend as much as we do, trillions, and our soldiers aren’t taken well care of?
The trick is that a lot of the so called military spending is only officially military releated. In reality it’s support for the industry to keep contracts running that make no sense and are far from economically viable.


A similiar thing is true for people in general. Early birds are free to just lie in bed some more or to move slower when getting up and they are free to go to sleep an hour earlier as that’s free time. Late risers (the slight majority, too) are not free to sleep according to their natual rhythm because they need to get to work and can in fact not just go to sleep an hour earlier when they are not tired yet.
And yet daylight saving time that punishes the latter group and keeps them in a constant cycle of slight sleep deprivation is pushed as the single time because idiots associate it positively with summer.


Thing is there is a correct and scientifically proven beneficial time (normal time) and one that idiot propaganda is successfully pushing because people positively associate it with summer (even often calling daylight saving time summer time instead).
So not moving on with the discussion was actually the better option.
