Turkey probably doesn't want more Russia on the Black Sea coast.

Cancer kills humans, which are a main cause of CO2 emissions!

Still, it is worth emphasising that China’s emissions remain far behind those of the EU on a per-capita basis.

When weighting historical emissions per head of population in 2024, China’s contribution is just 227tCO2 per capita, less than a third of the 682tCO2 for people in the EU27.

Worse, in my jurisdiction (Ontario, Canada), the government has decided to rip up bike lanes... to "reduce congestion" i.e. to own the libs.

The federal government has announced a plan to build high-speed rail along the major population corridor. But they'll be soon replaced by idiots whose whole platform is "undo it all".

One of Elon's private flights can easily produce as much CO2 as the average US inhabitant does in a whole year.

See for yourself.

Very nice looking knife.

Mostly I use a regular kitchen knife (ie non serrated) for bread too, just have to keep it very sharp. It's carbon steel so it's easy to hone and strop.

Hilarious that it's named after bread. Imagine if the Canadians created a missile called Poutine. Imagine getting killed by the fucking food missile.

More air defense in Chechnya means less on the front lines. No additional air defense in Chechnya means pissed off Chechens. Win-win.

Not only a petrostate, but also a dictatorship and a state that just ethnically cleansed 100,000 Armenians and is getting ready to do even more of that.

Modern bikes being less maintainable is largely on the extreme low-end like Walmart bikes, or extreme high end carbon-fiber nonsense designed for rich weekend warriors.

Best if you find a shop that deals in second-hand bikes and get a cheap one. A bike that has been maintained by such a shop is likely to continue being maintainable. Plus you may not know what kind of bike you like til you ride it for a while so don't spend too much for your first one.
