Yeah, this is a giant scam. The whole “we’re stealth” and “we look just like a regular RV” are key giveaways. If what they were doing was 100% legal and above board, they wouldn’t be doing it this way.

Did I say it wasn’t illegal? I literally said it is.

What I’m saying is CAD is pretending they were protecting the environment when in fact all they were doing was squatting a land title. They didn’t actually check on the land at all, which is something you might expect of someone who was actually trying to protect the land and wasn’t just pulling a big publicity stunt.

So yeah, what I’m saying is the other guy is right: theyre making a big show of saying they care about the land after the fact, but before then did jackcall shit and never even checked on it.

Elon can be a shithead and CAD could have just been doing a publicity stunt. Both can be true

I don’t know why people are downvoting you. At the very least, it seems like they didn’t even check on the land for years. Notice it’s a 2017 photo and a 2024 one. No progress pics in the middle, no “we told them to stop on X and Y date and here’s photos of them continuing”.

They abandoned the property for years because all they cared about was squatting on the wall being built, which by having the deed they were doing. They didn’t do anything further because that was never their goal.

So honestly, while what Elon did is shitty and illegal, them trying to claim the some moral high ground by acting like it was an environmental sanctuary is disingenuous. In fairness, the original purpose of stopping the wall from being built is STILL being upheld. Elon’s not building the wall there as far as I can tell. Just storing junk(that CAD should just scrap and sell since it’s abandoned on their lot). Heavy machinery is worth a lot…

Title is a bit misleading.

It’s not from US Bank(the specific company).

It’s from a US based bank, Providence.

How would you even type a “?” with that keyboard. No, I would not use a keyboard that was missing all numbers, 90% of symbols and threw 3 of the keys haphazardly to the side.

This is a joke at best and mostly just waste. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. It’s junk like this that makes the alternate keyboard community look like a bunch of schizos. “Why would I use something that works when I can remove tons of functionality to be cutesy?”.

Hard pass.

No numbers, important keys shoved out of reach… OP expects you to bind OTHER IMPORTANT KEYS LIKE ESC/TAB/SHIFT TO BE BOUND TO Q in order to function…

Might as well just grab a macropad at this point. You’ll almost never use the keys for one thing anyways and you’ll be doing Ctrl+/Fn+ combos constantly.

I woundnt use this even for emulators. A controller would be more useful than this.

I wouldn’t even use this for an emulator. WASD is completely borked and the buttons you’d bind them to instead would then be lost as well and those need to be rebound too. A controller is more useful than this ever would be.

California is not a good example of wildfires caused by climate change. California is an excellent example of how not letting natural fires burn over the last few decades has created unhealthy forests full of dead tree/bushes that are now powderkegs waiting to go off.

California, especially things like redwoods, evolved to NEED a cleansing fire every so often. THAT is our natural climate and we have been fighting against THAT for years.

This isn’t “climate change”. This is “the climate isn’t what we humans want so we tried to change it and now we’re suffering the effects of that.”

Well, seeing as how the question is directly asking “is there any energy you can’t eventually trace back to the sun”, you shouldn’t ever stop going back unless you can reach a definitively non sun answer

(Gravity arguably works - probably the nuclear attraction force as well, electromagnetic I believe)

Y’all need to pay attention to the actual question being asked. Geothermal, nuclear, tidal are all originating with the formation of the galaxy and the formation of stars.

Ask yourself: WHERE did the earth get X,Y,Z? Where does nuclear materials come from: supernovas. How do planets form? A gas cloud coalesces, the star forms, and the remaining gasses coalesce in that gravity well formed by the star. Without a star forming in the middle, you get no solar system. You get cold blob of gas or a cold dead rock. Where does tidal come from: same gravitational interactions that require a sun sized object - tides aren’t 100% earth & moon.

Stars are like the seed needed to form crystals. Without them, nothing else forms. Just a bunch of basic chemicals floating around.

Which wouldn’t have the potential if the larger sun didn’t form first to create the gravity to allow the rest to form.

Star != Sun is just pointlessly pedantic. You’re not trying to learn anything, just be a smartass.

Earth wouldn’t have coalesced without the sun in the middle. Otherwise we’d still be a gas blob.

Nuclear materials were formed in supernovas. They wouldn’t exist in the first place without a star.

Earth wouldn’t coalesce without the sun. Thus no geothermal.

Nuclear materials were formed in supernovas. Can’t have that without a star.

Moons tides wouldn’t exist if Earth didn’t have an orbit of its own. Again, sun needed.

Hydro you already figured out.

OP is inadvertantly providing another example: the phrase “conspiracy theory”. It was coined by the US government as a way to discredit ideas - to make people look like crackpots. Lots of negative propaganda was created around that phrase.

Fast forward to today and “conspiracy theory”, though admittedly still tainted in various ways, has made a resurgence. Things that would have gotten you laughed out of the room are now proven fact(like Iran-Contra, for a simple and fairly uncontroversial example).

A) literally means figuratively. Go grab a dictionary and check yourself.

B) Was I complaining about Reddit? If anything, I’m complaining about the fact that Lemmy is much smaller and often delayed in getting me news about current events

All the downvotes but literally every post here I see is on Reddit hours or days beforehand.

Don’t listen to this person. Unleashed dogs are the responsibility of the owner in most states. Not only are you not legally responsible for the injuries to the dog, the owner is responsible for any damage to your car.

You can literally say the exact same thing with Windows. That’s how you Linux peeps feel, constantly yelling “why are you using windows! Stop having fun!”

Is windows perfect? Nah. But does it work most the time? Yeah. All the bitching about windows being shit and yet my 300+ installed games all work… Crazy…

How about just let people use what they like and shut up with the damn “my OS is better than yours” nonsense?

It’s posts like this, that even though I’ve used Linux in the past, make me immediately think “nah, fuck that, I’ll stick to windows. I don’t want to deal with those people.”

You’re more of a harm than help.

That’s a wiring issue. Bulbs burning out shockingly fast means something else is wrong. Had the same issue in a ceiling light until we replaced the wiring.

And how often do we see loaded language regardless. I’m praising them for being neutral when often times the media isn’t. Especially with a topic like 9/11
