"Remain single" or "currently single"? That's a big difference.

His last post was 2 months ago. Did I miss something?

I hope that comic strip above was AI-generated?

These are great.

It claims a range of over 250 miles which is about the distance from me to there.

Uh oh!

I believe the main reason why Trump loves tariffs so much is that they give him endless opportunities to reward or punish the people/companies/countries he is dealing with.

@jon-nyc rofl!

Hey, I also used to have one of those in a former apartment!

I guess the percentage of the population living in those areas, while less than 50%, is also a quite significant fraction of the total population.

Fascinating.

August Förster? Cool. Very unique, warm sound. Cheaper than other premium brands. Not easy to find, even in Germany

Yawn.

Who gives a shit?

Well, if there's one person on TNCR who can eat this kind of food without having to worry about fat and calories it's you.

Ah! About a year ago I made some space cookies. Very bad experience.

Also, THC may calm you down, but I don't think it works against real anxiety and depression.

@jon-nyc What are gummies?

But does the whole system support these kinds of loading currents reliably?

If you have ten loading stations in one place, then presumably at most two of them or so could charge at those speeds at the same time. If many people in different places charge at such speeds at the same time, the whole energy network might be in trouble.

@jon-nyc said in Hey Asshat MAMILs…:

That could be dangerous. Often big groups are too spread out with a few stragglers 30-50ft behind. They may consider themselves part of the group for purposes of running the red, meanwhile other cars might not notice them.

There must be a group leader and he or she has the legal responsibility of taking care of proper formation of the riders. I've also taken part in such rides many times. The formation is formally temporarily dissolved when climbing a mountain and then re-established on top. It doesn't happen that anyone is behind while the group formation is active.

It can be quite annoying for cars but it is less dangerous for the bike riders than the alternative, I think.

I don't know about the legal situation in the US, but over here different rules apply for large groups of riders. If more than 16 bikers are riding together, the whole group is legally treated as if it was one big vehicle. For instance, if a light becomes red while the group goes over a crossing, the rest of the group can still go despite the red light.

Watched the first 40 minutes. A great interview. Zimmer is so smart, it's insane. I'm certainly going to listen to the rest, too.

I took the ferry that connects the ends of the planned tunnel a couple of times.

It's nice to save some time there in the future.
