I wish that was all that it was, a lot of those marches were pretty heavily coopted by some incredibly racist people though and they’re pretty tarnished as a result. The neo Nazis showing up in force sorta drove that point home.
I think that our immigration rate is too high, but those protests in particular didn’t really contain themselves to just that issue.
A decent induction is a lot better than household gas for stir fries. It can dump more heat into a (flat bottomed) wok than a household gas burner and you can get proper wok hei which just isn’t possible otherwise. A home gas stove can’t dump the 3500w that some induction can.
I’ve only lived with gas or induction and the heat and controllability from a good quality modern induction stove is unbeatable until you go to commercial gear.
He’s also studied a lot of revolutions and it all fits in with the sort of things that have happened in all of those revolutions. So it’s strangely believable
I’m all for separated bike lanes etc. They’re nicer and safer than riding on the road. however when that doesn’t exist the safest way to ride is to behave like a car, so holding the leave etc. Otherwise people try to squeeze past you or your less visible and it gets really dangerous
I’m from Australia and wouldn’t have been able to confidently say there wasn’t a tunnel between Ireland and England. There are long tunnels in a few places and one there wouldn’t be too surprising to me
However trams are a hell of a lot slower moving than a subway because they still have to deal with surface intersections etc. When there’s a good subway system it makes transit really fast, much faster than trams
It won’t win anyone to your side if you’re trying to convince them and say that though. That’ll just harden them in their views.
If you really want to reduce the influence of the right then you’d want to stop that sort of language spreading
They’re little sea puppies that are perfectly happy to cruise around while you swim with them. At least that’s the grey nurse sharks we get in aus. The ones you’re describing sound more like wobbegongs or similar. The grey nurses need to be in highly oxygenated water.
Grey nurses also used to have a rep as “man eaters” but that was just because of how they looked,not any actual attacks
That’s often the point of riding two abreast. If you are riding one at a time and on the edge of the lane then cars will often try and overtake you without leaving the lane, or at least a minimal amount. That leads to very dangerous close passes.
If you ride side by side or in the middle of the lane if alone, then generally the times you get passed by cars are much safer as if going fully into the other lane already they tend to give you enough space.
This would depend on the drivers in your area, but with the shitty Sydney drivers I learnt quickly to hold the lane unless it was a safe place for them to pass.
Also, because traffic is a thing it’s very rare that I don’t end up right behind whatever car passed me at the next traffic light, safer passes don’t really cost much time for the driver once traffic is accounted for
I’m assuming for large scale commercial solar
It’s also better than v and much much better than 2042. It’s a pretty fun arcadey shooter, with a very non toxic player base
Yeah I’m kinda with you. If you’re becoming filthy rich off selling access to content others made then you’re fair game. If you’re just doing it for yourself / not profiting it’s a very different ball game though
I think the current thing is quite likely an organic uprising. Things have been very very broken in Venezuela for a while now and the people there aren’t happy. Lots of people have been fleeing to Colombia for a while now and there are solid signs the election results were made up.
Yeah, I’m learning on an old mini, which is a great car to learn on because they made basically the same car for 40 years and it’s one of the most heavily produced cars of all time. I can buy every part for it for a reasonable price from one of 15 online retailers, about 5 of which are in Australia. However, if that wasn’t the case it would be quite a bad thing to learn on because you’d just spend all your time chasing parts.
Something like that, an old Toyota or a bug would be a good car to learn on
For YouTube stuff, d3sshooter is pretty good. He’s an older bloke that really knows his stuff and does detailed videos about how to do specific jobs on his cars (e.g. I followed his video when putting together the hubs for my mini). This is also a more expensive way to do it, but restoring an old car isn’t a bad way to go. You’ll learn a hell of a lot from it and they’re a bit simpler and more approachable than a newer car
Over the past 5 years the monthly road deaths here in aus have been going up, because of the prevalence of those massive cars
Not mostly, mostly consumer preferences. You wouldn’t be able to sell them and it’d just be wasteful
The example they gave (shooters fishers farmers) also has policies that better represent views in the regional communities than nationals. I don’t really agree with them, but they’re more honest and better represent what they claim to than the nationals.
Nuclear is a terrible fit for that though, it can’t scale up and down generation quickly, which is what would be useful with renewable. Honestly we’re better off for now trying to get to 95% renewables as quickly as possible for cheap, and filling the 5% with quickly scaling gas, and solve the last few percent a little more slowly but in a way that’s economic (and therefore will realistically happen). Nuclear is just way too slow, and if you sunk the cost that it’d take to build out the nuclear we could easily have a 100% renewable grid a lot sooner than the 20+ years it’ll take with nuclear
I’m so sick of the privatisation of our public space. There’s precious little of it and parking a mega yacht on it is a terrible use of space
