The folks with their dick in the asshole of the guy you are sucking off. Kind of difficult to see from your vantage point but everyone else can see it.

They've been spamming their posts of them sucking Russia's dick all over Lemmy. And getting massively downvoted every time, as it should be.

There's nothing communist about Russia now. They are trying to recreate the Russian Imperium, not the Soviet. Not that the Soviet was much better.

Unless there is a near infinite supply of something, it is a commodity and there is a market for it, even in a perfectly anarchistic utopia. Things take land, labor, and capital to produce. That makes them a commodity no matter what, even if the state and everyone else all insist my labor belongs to them.

In theory, yes. But I think for UBI to be successful we need to deal with the housing issue first. Otherwise landlords being able to gouge due to the housing shortage will do to UBI what student loans did to higher education.
I would defer to someone with far more knowledge about social work and conditions as to whether a single UBI-like payment can take over for the various agencies that currently pay for food stamps, welfare, etc. I suspect there is a lot more to them than just the cost and the payment.

They loved that Art Deco style. I do too.

EVs aren't remotely speculative any longer. Fuel efficiency targets are locked in and anyone who wants to sell cars in 10 years is spending billions to get the infrastructure and development in place to make EVs.
Efuels are what are speculative and it is highly doubtful they will be anything but expensive. Which is fine for luxuries like sports cars. And even unnecessary international flights are a luxury. We just feel entitled to them.
Methane is always a possibility but I imagine that will be expensive while the infrastructure for that is put in place. And it is a lot of infrastructure that needs to be built in the hydrogen sphere.

No, we have always had to make a compromise or a choice between sustainability, convenience, or price. The EU just decided to limit that choice to convenience or price.

No one likes a 6% loss. Not in revenue and not regarding ad effectiveness either. Although I'm guessing a lot of the people here are part of the adblocking crowd.

I'm not going to cry if there are a lot less people here. Half the real people sound like bots on Reddit and the quality of discussions has hit bottom. No loss whatsoever if that isn't replicated.

Screw the environment. I demand convenience instead!

The level of entitlement people have nowadays is insane, especially regarding issues that they are happy to say are super important. They just refuse to give up an iota of cenvenience to do anything about it.

Put it in a case. It's not difficult.
