We could make it ride on some sort of steel rail and string along multiple carriages to increase fuel and space efficiency

WanaBana Apple Cinnamon Fruit Puree pouches, Schnucks cinnamon-flavored applesauce pouches and variety pack and Weis cinnamon applesauce pouches were recalled

it was actually the cinnamon in the applesauce being cut with lead to significantly increase it's weight, thus it's value. It was an Ecuadoran cinnamon processor called Carlos Aguilera

they used to put brick dust in chocolate bars, and sawdust in bread

edit: heck, they just caught someone recently intentionally putting lead in ~~applesauce~~ cinnamon that was used in applesauce, which has been used off and on as a sweetener since at least ancient rome, where a bunch of people went crazy and died from consuming a sweetener made by boiling grapes in lead pots

I think in proper cyberpunk, no individual is able to meaningfully change the system/improve world circumstances on their own, including a CEO of a gigantic megacorp. So a CEO can make things worse with their megacorp, but they can't make them better.

Companion to the John Carpenter film The Thing.

 

Currently there is no rule for when a vote is over, or when the vote is tallied. I propose we allow 24 hours from post creation to allow everyone in the community to have a chance to see and consider a proposal and vote. After 24 hours from post creation, the 'polls' would close and the votes can be tallied. Any votes cast after 24 hours would be invalid.

Edit: some good points made, I withdraw this proposal
