what does that even mean? You can't have nice things because black people exist?

It kind of is though.

Can't have nice downtown because blacks live their so all the whites go out to the suburbs. End up with shitty inefficient suburb hell and under funded downtown.

No one wants to use public transport because of a sense of crime so only the lowest income people use it meaning further funding loss.

Nothing in America is for "the people" paid by the state except highways, oil and pouring water into the desert everything else needs to run a direct profit ignoring externalities.

I think it's a tax on housing. It doesn't make a difference how it's applied. But I like how it incentives less luxury.

Good job America isn't the only country in the world. The transition to renewables isn't even slowing down without America.

I generally agree with everything you said. You tax on housing is interesting idea I haven't heard before.

I do think electricity is going to have much more profound affects that people realise. We are regularly seeing negative pricing all around the world and solar, wind and especially batteries continue to drop in price and increase in deployments each year. Also electrification.

Simply to cost of production is far far lower than anything that has ever come before and the amount of people that can supply energy to themselves and others have increased dramatically. The market is much more competitive that anything that has come before. Honestly think people are sleeping on this.

I doubt that. Spacex is miles ahead of the rest and they have bigger plans.

Sure they would rather have a monopoly on cheap rockets for as long as possible but they have always known people would be trying to catch them up

Just because you want something to be true doesn't make it so.

School was great. Short days, long lunch and breaks. Loads of holidays. Had an hour of exercise thrown in every few days. Loads of people to talk to. Different things to learn.

Hated certain classes and hated being a child at times.

Last couple of years of highschool was awesome. Dropped all the shit classes, people suddenly treated you better because you was a young adult had even more time off! Like fuck 3 hours of work a day was unreal. (Where is our reduced workforce efficiency gains!)

But I agree with the other guy uni was much better. More drinking, more fucking more independence. Uni was the dream.

I was using libre tube for a while and that broke.

What's the best link for revanced?

The cost reduction for business needs to come into consumers. People don't actually need to earn more money to have more money. They can have more money by spending less.

In starting to think the solution is some big government intervention. The easiest thing is Land value tax which is happening in some countries but it's really enough.

The next solution would be forced purchase of land (bureaucracy needs to improved here) and then market driven bidding for manufacturing high density housing. The thing is the government doesnt need to aim to make a profit here. The loss of the building process can be gained back by taxes in growth in the economy elsewhere.

Energy and food are looking like they will get cheap soon with renewables and precision fermentation and lab grown meat. But taking land that has been horded by the rich, building high density and building railways will need government intervention.

I was just about to say you are wrong. Lifestraws don't filter out things like lead.

Just learn new ones do though.

Germans should be critical of Israel then.

 

BRB going out to buy a cloak.

 

"Quantum dot technology has been in TVs for years, so why isn’t it already in solar panels? Well, there are a few challenges. If we can engineer around these challenges, then these little devices could have a BIG impact - breaking the limits of our current solar panels, and ushering in a new and radically more efficient age of solar energy."

 

"Wales needs more funding and "economic fairness" from Westminster, Plaid Cymru has said ahead of its general election manifesto launch later.

Party leader Rhun ap Iorwerth said the general election was "about one thing - the economy".

He said Labour did not offer "meaningful change" after 14 years of "Tory cuts and chaos".

Plaid's manifesto, which is being launched in Cardiff, calls for the Welsh Parliament to have more power over natural resources and funding for public transport."

 

"Yesterday France announced the winners of the 250 MW South Brittany floating offshore wind auction, the world’s first commercial-scale floating offshore wind auction. This is a major milestone for floating offshore wind technology. So far Europe has only built small pilot and demonstrator projects. With yesterday’s announcement floating wind took a big step towards commercialisation and large-scale deployment."

 

Good fight that actually lived up to the hype.

 

SpaceX's Starship rocket, a futuristic vehicle designed to eventually carry astronauts to the moon and beyond, will probably have its fourth flight in 3-5 weeks, the company's Chief Executive Elon Musk said in a post on social media platform X on Saturday.

Renewable energy accounted for more than 30% of the world’s electricity for the first time last year following a rapid rise in wind and solar power, according to new figures.

A report on the global power system has found that the world may be on the brink of driving down fossil fuel generation, even as overall demand for electricity continues to rise.

 

Analysis of Home Office data showed the impact of the shift from EU to non-EU migrants. Migrants from the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey aged 25-64 were almost twice as likely to be economically inactive as someone born in the UK.

Spanish migrants typically earned around 40pc more than migrants from Pakistan or Bangladesh, while migrants from countries such as Canada, Singapore and Australia paid between four and nine times as much income tax as migrants from Somalia or Pakistan.

 

I suck at spelling and would like to know a word I have typed is wrong or not. Ideally with a red underline.

I really struggle looking at text I have written and seeing the mistakes. I have tried Samsung, openboard, gboard. None seem to fix the issue.

I'm willing to download anything as long as it's not a privacy concern. Is there any way to get what I want.

I have a Samsung 22+ if that makes a difference

"Spanish consultancy AleaSoft Energy Forecasting recorded negative hourly electricity prices for all but one European energy market it analyzed during the first week of April, including in the Spanish and Portuguese markets for the first time. It also registered an all-time production record for photovoltaic energy in Portugal and the second highest value ever recorded in Italy"

 

"In a statement, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) said the Royal Air Force (RAF) will repel "any airborne attacks within range" of operations in the region.

It is understood RAF jets have flown over Iraq and Syria, not Israel.

PM Rishi Sunak condemned Iran's "reckless attack", pledging the UK would "continue to stand up for Israel's security". "
