Ironically Republican presidents are the worst for the economy, https://www.jec.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/democrats/2024/10/the-u-s-economy-performs-better-under-democratic-presidents

What’s unhealthier is living in a cramped apartment space with noise and smell pollution.

Theres nothing wrong with car-centric if done right, not everywhere needs to be a dense urban environment.

Lets tax the wealthy appropriately before suggesting we need to suck taxes out of regular fucks by packing them like sardines.

People need to stop believing that their preferred way of living is optimal or necessarily better. Sometimes I doubt anyone wants to live this way, and maybe it’s just a ploy by landlords to get more tenants per unit of architecture.

Lastly, if you want to live in a “community” or “commune”, then go ahead. If someone else prefers isolated spaces and they’re paying taxes on what they have, that’s okay too.

This is sub is not solar punk, it’s more tired communist propaganda.

I don’t find any issues on .world. Yeah some people say dumb stuff, but that’s just the world isn’t it? I am sure there are others who think the same of me. It’s whatever, some people getting mad at .world are just mad they’re not in an echo chamber.

But other people complaining about trolls are right, there’s just no place for that. Report, block and move on. It’s not your job to educate anyone.

Just tapping that linuxsy

Urban planning is tricky, some times nice ideas have super tricky executions. Planting fruit/food trees in public spaces also accounts for rodents and pests, and managing disease vectors. Was just reading about fruit bats and Marburg virus spread in Central Africa…, regardless, just something that needs to be done with planning and consideration https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/04/23/178603623/want-to-forage-in-your-city-theres-a-map-for-that

Is this post sane-washing Russia? What’s left about Russia under Putin? Overall funny, though

Yup that’s what I do

Edit to say that there’s some mouse drivers which don’t work in a VM, at least from my experience but maybe I didnt try hard enough

Maybe, I’d like to see if there’s a difference, but you’re probably right

But not all Windows apps can be run via Wine, at least some apps related to some tools I’ve had to use were not available

Rich donors who don’t want EU like welfare states in the U.S.

Apple products have really great temp resistance

Maybe but such companies are also very good at lobbying so it’s not “easily fixable”

Companies which rely on transporting products between different locations (like Amazon, UPS etc) will make use of emptier roads to transport more goods. More empty roads = more opportunities for operational efficiency for transportation companies

Edit which isn’t a bad thing per se, companies should get to be more efficient, but not at the expense of tax payers who don’t want to subject themselves to public transport

The other side of this is the fact that many people do want to use public transport. I’ve driven in some excellent cars, I hate other drivers and don’t want to drive with them and I hate how ugly my city/ suburb is due to needing to have wide roads everywhere

Great, just please don’t force your preferences on someone else.

Is this your first day under capitalism?

I am tired of anti-car people pretending that removing cars from roads isn’t going to replace the empty space with shipping trucks. America is not Europe, it’s not a robust welfare state.

The other side of this is the fact that many people don’t want to use public transport. I’ve used excellent public transport in the EU, I still hate other people and don’t want to travel with them.

“So why are you voting Republican, then?” “My family is Republican; we always do.”

Republican politicians would eat this person and their family if it ever came to it

I think Fedora requires less configuration because a lot comes working out of the box. I haven’t had any issues yet

I mostly use Debian and Fedora, so you’re preaching to the choir
