TIL!

Thanks for the links

It is frustrating that Couchfucker doesn't want this and for the wrong reasons.

one of the largest hydrogen fuel furnaces in the world

Hydrogen powered shit is dumb. Like, super dumb. It is nearly impossible to store the shit without it corroding the tanks, fittings, whatever. So maintenance cost will be a killer in the long run. Nevermind the whole Hindenburg-esque possibility of the plant. Worse than that, unless that hydrogen is coming from renewable sources (aka. "green" hydrogen), it will actually be way worse for the environment. Most of the shitty sources are actually fossil fuels (aka. "blue" hydrogen). And guess who would love to make and sell hydrogen from fossil fuels and is therefore lobbying for government projects for this kind of shit? That's right, our "friends" Big Oil.

Hossenfelder discusses this in her video Hydrogen Will Not Save Us. Here's Why. https://youtu.be/Zklo4Z1SqkE

So yeah. I hate agreeing with Couchfucker about this one very specific point.

I think "slur" also requires a component of direct offense for it mean anything. I don't think it is valid to be offended for somebody else if that somebody else isn't actually offended. If I make up a slur on the spot denigrating some aspect of your person that you do not find offensive (eg. Flumplenook - for a person who's a bit clumsy), is it really a slur?

So if you call someone retarded, and they do not have the mental faculties to be offended, is it really a slur?

For slurs to have any meaning, any power, they need to be understood and internalized as offensive.

There’s really only two kinds of Republican: The evil ones who spread these lies intentionally, and the stupid ones who believe this dumb shit.

They are getting harder to find, you know, with all the Russian money drying up

You should stop. The wikimedia foundation has all the money it needs to fund wikipedia perpetually. The endowment was met years and years ago. Your money is being spent on parasitic non-profit management class nonsense things.

holy shit, everyone on the enterprise is RIPPED

Must be tiring manipulating the new ship controls AR UI

Only because they massively displaced a shitload of local business. Same with Amazon. If you have very little skills, where else are you going to work?

Great beer. If you get a chance to try their Soleil version, I definitely recommend.

I do not agree with your assessment of "reality." Only one side is actively against bodily autonomy (especially for women) and wants to look at kids genitals and police which toilet a human shits in. Only one side courts the religious ethnostate fascist where their whole stance is in-group vs. out-group (aka, demonization). Pointing these out isn't demonization, these are facts. If someone likes politicians from that side, the odds are good it does indeed make them suitable for the various negative labels they don't like. The late Dr. Bob Altemeyer studied right wing authoritarianism (both the leaders and followers) and even developed a rubric that would predict right wing authoritarian followers. They are dangerous because they eschew reason for vibes and are extremely susceptible to demagogues.

Give this a read and see if it changes your opinion on "both sides"
