They’re little sea puppies that are perfectly happy to cruise around while you swim with them. At least that’s the grey nurse sharks we get in aus. The ones you’re describing sound more like wobbegongs or similar. The grey nurses need to be in highly oxygenated water.

Grey nurses also used to have a rep as “man eaters” but that was just because of how they looked,not any actual attacks

It’s also better than v and much much better than 2042. It’s a pretty fun arcadey shooter, with a very non toxic player base

Yeah I’m kinda with you. If you’re becoming filthy rich off selling access to content others made then you’re fair game. If you’re just doing it for yourself / not profiting it’s a very different ball game though

I think the current thing is quite likely an organic uprising. Things have been very very broken in Venezuela for a while now and the people there aren’t happy. Lots of people have been fleeing to Colombia for a while now and there are solid signs the election results were made up.

Yeah, I’m learning on an old mini, which is a great car to learn on because they made basically the same car for 40 years and it’s one of the most heavily produced cars of all time. I can buy every part for it for a reasonable price from one of 15 online retailers, about 5 of which are in Australia. However, if that wasn’t the case it would be quite a bad thing to learn on because you’d just spend all your time chasing parts.

Something like that, an old Toyota or a bug would be a good car to learn on

For YouTube stuff, d3sshooter is pretty good. He’s an older bloke that really knows his stuff and does detailed videos about how to do specific jobs on his cars (e.g. I followed his video when putting together the hubs for my mini). This is also a more expensive way to do it, but restoring an old car isn’t a bad way to go. You’ll learn a hell of a lot from it and they’re a bit simpler and more approachable than a newer car

Over the past 5 years the monthly road deaths here in aus have been going up, because of the prevalence of those massive cars

Not mostly, mostly consumer preferences. You wouldn’t be able to sell them and it’d just be wasteful

In this case it’s because if you raised them no-one would want to buy them. The egg laying breeds are a lot tougher and have a lot less meet than the ones bred for meat. They also cost more per amount of meat in the end.

The simple fact is that people don’t want to buy that, so it’d just be wasteful to grow them out.

Ah yes, let’s take the low life area and make it 0 life

If they aren’t absolutely essential for some important societal function the aircraft should just be grounded rather than be allowed to fly on leaded. No one’s toy or joy ride should be giving thousands of people lead poisoning

But ranked choice is easy to implement and in practice if everyone would put a candidate second they aren’t likely to be knocked out in the first round. There are very limited practical examples where it doesn’t provide the optimal outcome.

It also seems to have some level of support and momentum in the US and it seems to me like it’d be better not to get caught in the weeds fighting over which new voting system should be implemented there.

Yep, I was talking to my grandpa about what invention his parents thought was the most significant in their lifetime, and they had said the radio. They had lived through both world wars which had brought about many many inventions and that was the one they thought was most significant.

Up to that time news was incredibly slow and you couldn’t put what was going on on the other side of the country without a massive delay, let alone the world.

I mean, that seems like a really sceptical way to live. Often things get shilled because people are just happy with the service and think the business is doing things well. I am a kagi user and have brought it up to some others, including outside of lemmy, because I find it produces better search results than ddg etc. And it’s a definite step up from google in privacy

And brown poop fans

Sort of, but honestly the vapes have created a new generation of smokers and they should have banned them much sooner (unless you have a prescription and actual plan to use them to quit smoking). They were much easier for new people to get into and we went from smoking dying out to a sizeable number of young smokers.

The tobacco companies have done very well out of vaping

Yep, this is me too. I absolutely hate car centric city infrastructure… But am also restoring a classic mini. They’re a cool piece of engineering, just a shit way to transport lots of people

Not always, but the ones that aren’t about that are much smaller. E.g. I know a little community of christ church that is very simple and they rotate through the sermon and then have a friendly morning tea after. I’m not religious but it’s the only church I’ve been to where I kinda enjoyed it and I think it does just bring community and no harm. That being said, it’s a fringe denomination and isn’t really growing, because it’s not trying to force itself on others

You can do that at any doneness, a cast iron heated up for 10 mins will do a perfect sear in a bleu steak

Container ships provide an important service for many many people, and are actually one of our most efficient forms of goods transport. These personal yachts on the other hand are pure vanity projects
