Yes a car free society should be the end goal but this will take a lot of time. We literally CANNOT wait for a better alternative, we needed to get rid of gas ten years ago.

Daily reminder that "EVs aren't a perfect solution yet" argument is what the oil industry is pushing, so they can maximise profits for an other decade at the detriment of all of us.

Opposed to google?

There's nobody to bomb and go to war with, we literally just have to stop.

Per capita, we pollute twice as much as China does. On top of that, most of their pollution is directly linked to making products for us.

We are the bad guys here, no contest. Especially when looking at how our government fights the transition every step of the way.

I totally agree though, it's completely mental that the environment isn't our top priority.

I would choose a character and concentrate on learning him. There are builds online you can use to not get over whelmed at first by the shop.

I play an other MOBA but there is probably a lane that has two players for most of the match, you should concentrate on playing one of those two types of characters so you and your son can maximise play time together, most likely the tank would be the better choice (more forgiving, easier to learn, support character so your son gets to be the hero).

I enjoy it since there's the aspect of interviewing the victim themselves, as well as a constant sense of danger since the killer needs to obviously finish the job and fast. It becomes a bit of a race.

Altered carbon and Hyperion by Dan Simmons come to mind as having the concept.

We are the major polluters

Congrats, you are a mouth piece for the oil industry and part of the problem.

Hypothetical situation, if there was a way to induce lucid dreaming and record the dreams as well? Coding doesn't really lend itself to this but advertising, filmography or architecture would benefit at least at the early concept stage.

I agree It's all very sci-fi but if they can make a product that works like they say (sending ultrasounds to target specific parts of the brain to induce lucid dreaming), it has amazing entertainment value right out of the box regardless of its work use.

I think his point is that the REM portion still does its job regardless of if you are lucid or not during the phase.

This would actually be insane for music creation. The few times I had dreams where I was playing an instrument, it was pure fire
