Can solar panels not be turned off? I see panels that aren’t plugged into anything and they don’t exactly blow up. Can’t they just be turned off when storage reaches a certain capacity?

It’s the same situation with North Korea. Either let people starve and hope something will change, or encourage bad leadership by saving their citizens from their bad decisions.

Why not build it in a remote location then?

Dams can also produce a lot of hydroelectric power, and a catastrophic failure could also destroy an entire town or more. We just don’t build dams upstream of a large town.

Man, Armagastan is such an accurate name for what America is these days.

It even eludes towards Armageddon, it’s perfect.

Left wingers should boycott McDonald’s just for fun because it’s Trump’s favourite thing apparently. It would be interesting to see.

One thing I never see addressed with the dream of ending cars and just having bikes is how do first responders operate? How do you transport unconscious people to the hospital? Put out an apartment fire? Get to an armed robbery in time to stop it?

Bikes are great but they also aren’t an end all be all solution to society.

Both probably on Putin payroll to cripple the military by removing competent leadership and replacing them with incompetent people.

Maybe you would. How about a 60 year old woman?

I expect police to arrest people breaking the law or fine them, not beat them with sticks.

Also damaging to businesses… I already knew about the butter recall and then saw this. My brain automatically filled in ‘peanut butter’ when reading because of the photo, and my first thought was damn, Costco fucked up again? Maybe they are going downhill in quality. Until I read the comments to realize I should reread that.

My zoo buries them on the premises. I know of a camel, a moose and a few other things got buried there. They have a large plot of land that is used to dispose of organic waste like branches and trees, old compost, etc until it’s full and needs to be tricked out to the landfill. They just bury the animals under the ground there.

The zoo near me a few decades ago had an accident where a lot of their reindeer got pregnant before the male could get neutered. They kept all the female offspring but they couldn’t risk having two males in the same enclosure and no nearby zoos needed male reindeer or also couldn’t accommodate them so they had to put them down and ended up feeding them to the carnivores in the zoo.

I wonder if prepaying would be a way to force them to help you if you have a miscarriage instead of turning women out at the door.

“I already paid for this! Get over here it’s too late to say no!”

We need to try and bankrupt any company that produces fax machines.

The industry will need to adapt once fax machines aren’t produced anymore.

I prefer having ballots not say what party the person is in. Then people actually have to know who they are voting for, not just blindly check a box beside R or D every time.

I call that kidnapping

I always wondered if instead of a two lane road every block you could have a city where it’s a four lane road every two blocks, with a single lane pedestrian/bicycle street alternating every other block there isn’t a road.

Personally I prefer a mixture of both. Touch screen for anything you don’t need to operate while driving and physical for everything else.

Android Auto navigation, car system/audio settings, clock and system management, etc should all be a touch screen so you aren’t navigating through turning knobs and pressing up and down buttons to go through various menus like your programming a microwave.

Knobs and dials and buttons for anything to do with audio volume, skip/reverse tracks, etc. and air conditioning.

My dad is the same with gas price. If gas is 156.9 cents a litre? Nah to him it’s 156 cents a litre

Then leave the advertisement alone. They still print the prices on tags at each store location.

Let them send out flyers saying item A is $20 *plus local taxes but when you get to the store the pricetag on the shelf should say $23.50 or whatever the markup ends up being at that location.
