Disney told L.A. residents to move to Florida for a planned campus. They did, it was canceled and now they're suing ( www.latimes.com )

Walt Disney Co. continues to face fallout from its scuttled plans to move 2,000 California employees to a proposed Florida campus — a controversial decision the company reversed last year following the return of Chief Executive Bob Iger....

What a downgrade in life.

FDA advisors voted against MDMA therapy – researchers are still fighting for it ( www.bbc.com )

Some 13 million Americans struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Existing therapies only bring relief for a fraction of patients, and new treatments are sorely needed, according to psychiatrists wrestling with the scale of the problem. So, there was distinct disappointment when an advisory committee at the US Food...

I just tested with my VPN and indeed xvideos doesn't give a shit if you're in Texas.

The A record for xvideos resolves to the Netherlands so that's probably why they don't give a shit.

Then why are EVs priced higher than ICE?

aniki ,

My 2010 wagon has 180k and I can still take it to the mountains and not worry about finding a broken charge port on the way home.

aniki , (edited )

I'll keep my ICE and ride a bike. I'll still do less environmental damage than you because I am human powered for all but the trips to the mountains, and then I don't have to worry about being stranded without a plug.

And I have yet to hear a convincing argument that taking my perfectly working vehicle off the road to buy another manufactured product is still more environmentally friendly than... not buying anything at all.

I don't give a fuck about initial torque. I'm going to be laughing in my wheetabix when there's not a single EV older than a decade on their original batteries.

Downvotes don't make me wrong, chuds.

aniki ,

Either they are priced higher or they aren't. They are priced higher and as such I won't be buying one anytime soon. Not until they are a decade old on their original batteries.

aniki ,

Gas engines are cheaper

Yeah, I understand perfectly that you're hilariously wrong. My car is paid off. It's just maintenance at this point. How is that going to be more expensive than buying an EV?

Pretty easy to make a comparison to the average American. It's like BMI -- it's bigger than the individual and not a metric useful for individual comparison.

https://aaafoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/202309_2022-AAAFTS-American-Driving-Survey-Brief_v3.pdf

Drivers reported making an average of 2.44 driving trips, spending 60.2 minutes behind the wheel, and driving 30.1 miles each day in 2022. Projecting these results to all drivers nationwide, 255 million drivers made a total of 227 billion driving trips, spent 93 billion hours driving, and drove 2.8 trillion miles in 2022, all of which represented small but not statistically significant decreases relative to 2021.

I average 0 miles a day driving.

Irrelevant.

How do you know how much environmental damage...

I do?

This excludes major battery recalls, such as the Chevy Bolt and Hyundai Kona.

aniki ,

How is being stranded with no way to charge your EV not a concern for owners?

And yes, potentially gas stations could be vandalized as well -- except they aren't, and charge stations are.

Boy... if all those 2010 Leafs are still on the road, why can't I find any used for sale??

It's almost like they didn't do any investigative work and just regurgitated a Nissan spokesperson. It's fucking Forbes after all.

So two strikes to you. Wanna try again?

This country will not.

Oh how many comments I have seen on Lemmy from lefties suggesting death or violence upon right wing people. Horse shoe theory is not a theory. Tjeu should just get together and fuck or something.

University of Minnesota pauses hiring of professor who called Israel's war against Hamas 'a textbook case of genocide' ( jewishinsider.com )

The University of Minnesota paused the hiring of a professor who wrote that Israel’s military operation against Hamas in Gaza after Oct. 7 was “a textbook case of genocide” to head the school’s Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies (CHGS), Jewish Insider has learned....

What's the hard place between genocide and not-genocide? Since when did a university give a shit about what a bunch of rich blowhards bloviate about?

If it wasn't for Lemmy I'd have no idea what's happening.

Seriously. I finished OSUT for 11B school and half the company didn't pass the tape test and that was in 2002. There's no fucking way its not so much worse now.

Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas out of Olympics after losing legal battle ( www.theguardian.com )

The US swimmer Lia Thomas, who rose to global prominence after becoming the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA college title in March 2022, has lost a legal case against World Aquatics at the court of arbitration for sport – and with it any hopes of making next month’s Paris Olympics....

Play victim harder, daddy!

World Aquatics insists it is doing all it can be inclusive and has introduced an “open” category for transgender swimmers. However, plans to debut it at the Berlin World Cup last October were cancelled after no entries were received for any of the 50m and 100m races across all strokes, which were due to take place alongside male and female races.

You're not arguing in good faith by having something so absolute as:

it’s that banning a woman from women’s sports is saying that she’s not a woman.

On 28 April 2022, Just Stop Oil supporters blocked the entrances to Clacket Lane Services on the M25 by sitting in the road with Just Stop Oil banners. They also decommissioned the petrol pumps by breaking the display glass and covering it with spray paint. This action was taken in support of their demand for the UK government...

That wont work at all. Each subscriber needs to get the update which is not a feature of Lemmy at the moment. Simply injecting posts will only copy over content.
