This thread is like Monty Python's "Life of Brian". Half the people here are the People’s Front of Judea and the other half are the Judean People’s Front.

Or better yet, we're like the Maya Pei Brigade arc from the first few episodes of season two of Star Wars Andor.

Trump, Stephen Miller, Meloni, Orban, Farage, Weidel, Le Pen and the rest love watching us fight each other. It's one of their most effective tactics.

That's the comment I was looking for.

Use a Yubikey. It's a small USB Device you can put on a keychain. It is still a second device, but it's not your phone. And you always have your keys with you, anyway.

I have seriously thought about doing this. I believe if your car is stolen, your insurance will not pay out if you have disconnected the antenna. It's probably not enough to stop me from disconnecting the antenna, but it's infuriating how much the whole system works against privacy.

I want to have my cake and eat it too, though (privacy plus electric).

I'm looking at the new electric Slate pickup. As far as I can tell, this is the one EV that might not spy on us.

There's no conscious goal to biodiversity. But over time, life will grow and reproduce to harvest as much of the universe's energy as possible and make as many copies of itself as possible.

Think bacteria on a petri dish, humans on the earth, and really, all living material in the universe.

I love to see bikes overtaking cars.

I hate to see bikes not stopping and yielding to pedestrians using the crosswalk when pedestrians have the right of way.

The idea that there's cross talk between rod and cone dominated pathways has been understood for years.

But the technique they used requires a lot of skill and the study sounds very impressive.

I agree.

ASOIAF is amazing, and If GRRM can't write a good ending, I'd rather the series stay unfinished than have finished it in a way that detracts from the story.

Exactly.

I hate posts like this. If people on the left could unite against capitalist billionaires we would stand a chance.

Instead, we attack each other while they laugh all the way to the bank.

Wow, it was tough to watch that whole video. I hope things have improved since then, although I'm sure in a lot of places they haven't.

Eat less meat and if you do eat meat, pay extra for pasture raised animal products.
