I think there are two major purposes in government. First, protection for its citizens. This includes military protection from hostile foreign powers and domestic protection from interpersonal crime and systemic violence as well as providing safety nets.

The second is creation, protection, and maintenance of public infrastructure, including transportation arteries, healthcare systems, etc.

Furthermore, government should be centered around protecting all its citizens, not just the richest.

Whenever I see these I make a comment on how these are spread by evil hacker men so that tech illiterate rubes self-identity.

I don't know if that's actually true but it sure got the boomers on my feed to stop posting this bullshit for a while.

Fuck it. All androids are now required to be highlighter yellow. That'll give em something to argue about.

Either toss my ass in a dumpster or give me a sky burial. No exceptions.

I agree. With the cost reduction on renewables, grid-scale nuclear doesn't make a lot of sense anymore.

However, I hope that nuclear will get a revival with SMR technology. Especially as local power facilities for things like data centers and auto plants and other industrial facilities that require as much power as a small nation.

Get Michelin Cross-Climate tires. They've got a really different tread design that makes them true All-Weather tires that aren't dogshit in the snow and rain.

Why do companies even buy ads in this space? There's so many spots in our society where ads are just being injected to play for nobody. At what point do they figure out that it's not worth the return on investment to put ads in those spots?

I'll only accept this if they march them across the Alps and sack Rome like they should have done the first time. 😤

I see your thinly veiled Hanlon's Razor and counter with Clark's Law: “Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.”
