I would totally pay for YouTube premium if they weren’t so good about making me watch my favorite gun-tubers on other platforms. Every channel has this endless and constantly changing list of words they can’t say for fear of being demonetized.

Fuck them indeed.

Break up the monopoly and I won’t need to block your ads because I’ll be able to go elsewhere.

I moved Mykolaiv+Odessa to US in the 90’s, then married someone who grew up in Canada. Citizen of both.

Food wise, try a lot, Ukrainian flavors are incredibly bland, depending on where you live (I know Mississauga well) the Indian food is very good and authentic and kind of the polar opposite of traditional slavic cooking.

Canadians are more diverse, cultures vary depending on who you’re talking to, cannot always tell just by appearance. Very very different from Ukraine in this regard as well.

Other things people here covered already.

I do that. I got thc-v extract isolated in a lab from someone in the industry (supposedly a bit more of a simulant), when I took it I passed out until the next day and was depressed for a week after that. There’s some poorly understood relationship here, but my doc said it confirms my (very mild) type 2 bipolar suspicion/diagnosis.

Here’s a fun thought experiment: What gregorian year and date will the spacian date value of zero correlate to? Trick question.

The atomic clock on the moon and every other celestial body colonized will simply start at zero, and thanks to relativity it will not actually be the same rate of time passing as on earth.

Enjoy your nightmares.

How do you define young?

I’m definitely too old but I loved Tarkov before cheaters ruined it.

I know some early-20’s folks who grew up on DayZ.

Both games very hard to not suck at.

To be more precise: fuel efficiency standards go down with the physical volume a vehicle takes up.

So every year efficiency requirement goes up, but you just update the body every few years to add a little more sheet metal and stay within your legal mandate.

Freak out a little then masturbate all morning for sure.

“caving” is a stretch, one results in much more money in their pocket including funding for their reelection campaigns

Your government has guts. It’s just a government representing corporations and not people.

Other responder is on the money for established brands.

For new car makes, they are forced to play it safe.

For example Rivian, let’s assume there is no technical constraint. They need to decide how much they are willing to risk before introducing a new product. When you invest billions before the first customer buys anything, your investors who are fronting all that capital want you to use the formula that is proven to work in every respect apart from whatever dimension you’re innovating on.

Cars going on sale this year were designed multiple years ago. They were tested. Tooling and whole new production facilities needed to be designed and built and supply chain set up for all the new parts. Test batches evaluated. It’s not like how you patch shit software almost on the fly in today’s beta culture.

If someone like Rivian got the shape wrong because in the meantime everyone decided the porsche 356 was the prettiest car ever made and every new car was round and curvy, they’d lose what’s called product market fit, which is the death sentence for every failed company. As a car maker they can recoup some money by slashing prices but this whole product cycle would be a huge cash loss they cannot afford to miss.

So everyone plays it safe. Everyone copies apple. Everyone emulates the design direction of Ford’s F150, Toyota’s Prius, etc.

Or, you know, change emissions regulations so that cars can be made smaller again.

Hate to tell you there’s no singular villain trying to kill kids with cars.

Literally the only reason cars got this big is because minimum efficiency is the result of dividing mpg by square footage, and by law the number has to go down every year. I do not blame auto makers for simply making the same popular models a little bigger with each refresh so as not to have to redesign from scratch the things that took 100 years of engineering effort to get to the present level of function.

Woah, only USD 12 for a GENUINE fake cracked copy someone first downloaded from a torrent?

Passenger door to passenger door doubles the available space for your door to open on the driver’s side. Especially important with kids you need to get in and out where you can’t just slip through.

As a privately held business, we have no clue. Only the directors of the company and the board truly know what impact was made, and even then I would not be typing this on this app were it not for Reddit’s behaviors. The effect may not even be immediate - it’s now clear to many many people what value lies in developing an alternative that’s for everyone instead of something niche for those right wing groups censored/banned by Reddit.
