Very few can say that they truly exist without ANY trace of animal products in their lives.

Forreal, longtime vegan here… Vegans (online mostly) annoy me more than most people. I swear we aren’t all jerks! I’m probably a major sell out, I don’t even have a problem with hunters.

The answer is here, but you just can’t fight physics. Light needs to come through a lens and hit a sensor. There has to be some significant distance, in relation to the thickness of the phone for this to work. Until camera technology advances and somehow produces a comparatively sharp image, we will be stuck with the bump. It’ll happen at some point I’m sure, but there is a whole bunch of tech that will need to change to get there.

We need these all over the place in the U.S. - If the tech works out, problem solved, fewer chemical battery downsides. https://www.euronews.com/green/2024/02/06/this-disused-mine-in-finland-is-being-turned-into-a-gravity-battery-to-store-renewable-ene

Today’s empires… tomorrow’s ashes…

No way, this stuff is excellent. Hard to believe yours is a good faith take when Trump & co spew the most vile commentary that is completely fact free day after day. This is sarcastic, but it’s not really an exaggeration. They could go harder, this is still quite professional, I love to see it. Finally the Dems are in the rhetoric race.

Yes. Fearmonger more. You keep up that driving! The rest of us will take advantage of more spare time to read while we cruise smoothly by the cars sitting in traffic. Truly a nightmare.

It wasn’t milk

Same rules for communists then?

You know nothing, are not American, and you comment all the time on American politics? Why are you here again?

Shills gotta do the job they’re paid for, after all …

Slippery slope on that one. Do all Nazis deserve punched in the face (and worse)? Yes! Let’s not criminalize thoughts or beliefs though, no matter how reprehensible they may be.

IDK where you were riding… 10 year cycle courier veteran from Boston here with my own anecdotal experience. This could very well be a personal health thing with you. Never had any issues related to the fumes in my throat, or heard of any related issues within the messenger community. If you told me over time that the fumes have a negative impact on healh I’d believe it, but I probably wouldn’t listen to a commuter who rode a tiny fraction of the urban cycling I’ve done personally. I’d be very interested to see a study on long term bike messengers.

Forreal. Somewhere in the Modern Primitives book one of those old heads talks about making people wait a year for a face tattoo. If you’re serious enough to come back a year later then it’s not just a passing impulse. Good policy. Kinda doubt homegirl waited a year, but it’s possible.

Sure, we are all capable of the whole gamut of political opinions, it’s foolish to gauge race as the only deciding factor. On that we agree. There is also a whole messaging thing that would need to shift for Republicans to appeal to a wider variety of people, which is what I was trying to point out. How many times has JD Vance spoke in narrow terms about “the white working class” , that’s probably not a message that appeals much to a diverse electorate. I don’t think the current Republican party would even tolerate Michael Steele at this point.

That’s hilarious, you think Republicans would try that? It’s been mask off for the open racists since Obama, they understand their base just fine.

Zappa even has a song about this very subject, from 1967.

Its an observation, sweetie.
