Ugh, I'm sorry. It feels like the whole world is coming apart at the seams. My country did some terrible things recently, but I hope we will all trend in a better direction soon.

This is a 2024 moto g stylus 5G.

I'm on a Motorola, I don't think it's flashable...

Not bad, but they gotta lose the smart stuff and smaller integrated batteries. The 4G chips and apps are the first things to go usually, and the integrated batteries are generally too small over external offerings.

Those are the same complaints I have with the Level 2, which we have. My other bike has no app and an external battery, and upgrading the battery size is a breeze.

Your poor head! This made me laugh hard on a pretty rough day, so thank you for that. :)

Seven hours? Holy crap, I hope they make r2r a thing in the future. That sounds awful...

Honestly, I kinda like it. I don't think my phone will get 16, though. I'll probably get android 18 or whatever is out then.

When it comes to saguaro cacti with scorched, dying bases...can people chop and prop them, just like traditional succulents and cacti? The ones in that picture still have a considerable amount of green. Their bases might be destroyed, but their bodies appear to be fine until they die of thirst. Humans may be able to save a number of them.

I limit my driving, try to limit my plastic consumption, and try to push our household into energy-saving appliances. We plant native plants, and do a ton of research when voting, and encourage others to vote.

At the end of the day, most stuff is going to be best directed from the top-down, such as switching from methane "natural gas" to renewable baseload power, like advanced nuclear, geothermal, hydro, etc. or preserving democracy so we can make these decisions instead of the red menace currently in charge.

Getting people to vote for democracy and climate policy has an outsized impact over my personal choices and habits, regardless of how good or bad they are.

Paula R. Glover, president of the Alliance to Save Energy, a group that promotes energy efficiency, said the Energy Star program cost $32 million but delivered $40 billion in annual savings on utility bills.

32 million for over $4 billion A YEAR in savings. What a fucking waste to cancel it. 32 million is pocket change. I think my city spends more than $32 million a year on bike lanes, lol.

I'll look into those- thanks!

Honestly, I like this version better than the real "Midwest", which isn't western at all, and hasn't been for well over a century. Hell, there were forts on the west coast in 1792.
