Yeah. One thing that set Trump apart in the initial primaries is that he wasn’t pushing the business friendly policies that other mainstream Republicans were pushing.

The Guardian is British.

Not the original commenter, but American breweries make some very top tier beer.

I feel like a lot of the difference is that American breweries are more willing to experiment and have a deeper variety of beer within breweries.

The Vorta don’t have those kinds of lobes.

And if the cost of all the stairwells is $100,000,000, is that life worth it?

Not really for Acela. The NE Corridor is fully grade separated for most parts and four cities chosen are far enough apart to make use of the train’s top speed.

This is part of a major rethinking of how code impacts density and whether it is worth it for certain design forms.

There is a cost to safety and it is used to evaluate whether it is worth it given the odds.

Yeah. People who have that in my job tend not to do well.

Wildfire season becomes a thing on the East Coast as Canadian forests burn. People start spending more time indoors in the summer because of it.

The bad time of year shifts from winter to summer as snow becomes rarer and heat waves become common.

Coastal cities near me either harden their coasts or design their cities to not flood. Major tunnels are retrofitted to allow for saltwater intrusion with minimal damage.

More multigenerational homes form as retirees in Florida become climate refugees as several Florida metro areas collapse due to the increased number of hurricanes. They don’t call themselves refugees, though.

Several state parks form in the region, created as the state buys out entire communities to intentionally create new freshwater wetlands.

Areas that don’t flood see rapid densification as property values skyrocket and single family homes are pushed into apartment buildings like the urbanization of cities in the 19th century.

I pay money to cross a large river.

They’re still having them? Good for them.

There isn’t a guarantee that federation protects against enshitification. Email has effectively been captured by a few providers.

I feel like part of it also is that Lemmy isn’t designed for anywhere near the traffic that Reddit gets. For instance, Lemmy maintained Reddit’s mod power structure based on mod service length.

Also Lemmy hasn’t really done a lot to build spam fighting measures. If the user base grows 10x the current size, I can see spam becoming a bigger problem which could affect usability.

It is people who want small government finding out that programs that benefit them or their communities are getting cut.

We’re not even in hurricane season, yet.

Kind of. The Department of War was the Army only. The Department of Navy was its own department and operated based on a different set of military demands, which was a major reason why the Marines exist.

It wasn’t until after World War II when the USA recognized the difficulty in having two separate departments for the military made combined operations hard to implement. You also had the Army maintaining a larger peacetime size and a third branch, the Air Force, being created to optimize for a new theater of war.

Funny. I thought the Navy beat the Army more in the Army-Navy game.

Well, Trump also sold Bibles.

The problem is that credit cards can be useful, but you need to have a certain mindset with money to have them. If money is an one-off switch instead of a number, you’re going to be ruined by debt.

No. The war is unpopular, but Zelenskyy is still popular.

I think it is clear that the Ukrainian people would accept a negotiated settlement including the loss of territory, but I don’t see total capitulation as politically acceptable. The big sticking point appears to be who guarantees Ukrainian independence after the war.

Yeah, this one is the big one.

I feel like World War Z would have been better adapted as a TV show given that the book was episodic in nature.
