do not look at the front page of that website. Good lord!

There was no warning given because they just started bombing right away. They didnt even give anyone a chance to leave.

No. They cant decrypt your chats. They can however backdoor your device and see the pre or post delivery message. Its not hard for them to do. Technically or legally.

If they arent currently logging activity on your device then turning on self destruct messaging could mitigate their ability to spy on you. Unfortunately all your chat partners have to do it too.

i use the term labor time a lot

it would have to be on rails. Sure, buses have fewer wheels per passenger but they are also heavier so go through their tyres much faster. Its probably still a net benefit but it doesnt eliminate the problem.

Give us a name!

“Everyone who disagrees with me is Sealioning!” Its a ridiculous concept and i take exception to the suggestion that we are debate nerds, or civil. What evidence does anyone ever present in an internet debate beyond a news article or a wikipedia entry? Its become apparent that the people who write in those mediums are no more diligent with their research than anyone else. There are no consequences for laziness. Reputations no longer mean anything to media firms. They have monopoly power, they can print rubbish and continue to hold their audience. To truly examine any evidence requires questioning all assumptions and no one who spends their time arguing with strangers on the internet is going to be that committed. Apparently asking for evidence and and pointing out its flaws makes you a troll.

Does Manning count?

The second line is obviously talking about africa generally and not gabon specifically.

You said every rider you ever see is breaking the law. Which is clearly nonsense. Meanwhile dont pretend you never break any road rules.

And finally

solidly 20 mph

The topic is motorbikes in queensland. Not america.

Fair play to ya. fair play.

Climate science doesnt have much to do with spaceflight either. Are you complaining about that too?

It would need to scale pretty high. Wealth inequality is the root cause of this problem.

which, considering that the U.S considers accessing a server based in the U.S grounds to extradite a person from the otherside of the world and try them for a capital crime might not be such a bad thing.

Its filled with bio-memetic gel. Because language is a meme.

No the problem is that governments arent legislating standards and are letting australia be used as a dumping ground for models that cant be sold elsewhere.
As the article mentions people are getting tax breaks to buy these things and then not using them for work. They’re buying dual cabs to take their kids to school and go mudding. Not to visit work sites.

The vast majority of these tradies could make do with a van and a trailer. Their tools would be more secure and they’d have more space for hauling. But tradies arent buying these things. People who want to look like tradies are.

It also mentions that they’ve caused an increase in morbidity and mortality on the roads. To get a motorbike license i had to take 2 day courses and tests and also do logged supervised hours. This is apparently necessary even though the only person i’m likely to hurt on a bike is myself. People driving these light trucks dont have to get any special licenses or training at all.

The longer they wait the more invested people will be in heavy cars and the less viable it will be.
