I can’t see it because it can’t see me.

Crappy situation all around. Best I can tell, there arent many, if any large pieces equipment offered in electric. Probably not a popular European brand, but last I read, John Deere wasn’t looking to have anything for the mid-tier until 2026 and had no plans for the large fleet.

It’s also not like farmers do a lot of equipment swapping; most I know use them and repair them until you simple can’t anymore. So, even if there were options coming onto the market, the percentage of those in the field would be very low to start and remain low for a LONG time.

Helping farmers make a switch is a shortcut, but the equipment has to exist for someone to buy.

Not OP, but I think we’d be friends. I want left (no pun intended) alone to live my own life, but I don’t think people should be left to die because of the machine we’re in. I believe your rights extend to the point they interact with mine and vice versa. You’re rights can’t prevent mine and vice versa.

My initial reaction is “fucking gross”, but that’s only because Google Maps has taught me what map colors should be. I’m old enought to have used a book-based atlas even before Yahoo Maps was popular, but young enough I don’t remember what that coloring was.

While I do find it harder to understand what is going on with the map, esp while driving, I’d be interested in reading more into why they made the change. So fucking help me God if this is just some graphic artists idea of what looks better…

The numbers being low on business travel shocked me; I work for a remote-first company and we augment that by getting together every quarter. I hardly travelled pre-pandemic. I figured other companies that are staying remote were doing something similar.

I fell asleep during it in the theater. It was so insanely boring.

My answer won’t be as popular, but it’ll definitely get the attention of the right people on the customer’s side: charge HANDSOMELY for issues caused due to customers using the systems outside of agreemed to or published best practices.

Pretty easy to make a socialist argument for cars IMHO.

It’d go something like, “the only way to ensure the right to mobility is equally distributed is to ensure every individual has what equates to a bus station in their own home.”

Using an ideology to support a desired outcome isn’t as hard as it should be.

Without teens and boomers, social media would be dead.

According to me and most of my buddies, the answer is diverticulitis in varying degrees.

Oh boy, let me tell you about the Presidential power that I’m most scared of: the President has 90 days to get Congressional approval for war. The idea being it used to take a long time to get people together to vote on things and even longer to mobilize. These days, though, you can conquer a country in under 90 days…

Subjectively.

Like most things, it is about preference and/or what the measure of success is. Some people prefer the tighter, mixed-use concepts and some don’t. I know people that would love a concept like this and I know people that would be overwhelmed and depressed.

Taxes from the middle class. Ftfy.

Provoked Gamer is pretty baller. Are you asking for a friend?

Urbanist?

IIRC, the price cap on labor was to reduce workers from getting drawn to other companies that were paying higher wages. The idea was to make production predictable by keeping the limited labor force in place rather than having them be mobile. It led to the rise of benefits, like health insurance, being offered as part of total compensation packages since the extras weren’t capped. Effectively this was the start of insurance being tied to employment.

Law of unintended consequences hit us in a big way with this one.

Countries with the raw materials needed to make modern batteries are about to need some freedom. This is actually scary, because a lot of those minerals are in Africa, and China has a pretty large investment in Africa, already.

Why are the Nordic countries so high?

Prefacing this question with the fact I’m an Android user and have never owned an iPhone. Saying this in the hopes people won’t think I’m an Apple fanboi trying to make a point…

I haven’t been that interested in the EU legislation around this until now; I’m curious what happens when something comes out that is better than USB-C? Are companies stuck until new legislation is passed or is there some sort of auto update to the standard written in?

Unless I’m misunderstanding how this whole thing works, it’d depend on the instance and community, wouldn’t it? If I set up my own instance, I can setup my own rules for the communities that might start there. Those community leaders may opt to set rules stricter than the instance rules.

If you go crazy enough, you get defederated like North Korea…
