Oh yes I’m sure the Israeli version of Trump is definitely going to relinquish power

True, but as far as anyone knows that’s not a risk amplified or mitigated by climate change. Shouldn’t affect prices like a growing wildfire or hurricane threat would

If you’re in Oregon or Washington and west of the Cascades your house is worth what it’s valued. The wildfire threat almost entirely stops at the mountains.

Unfortunately the smoke doesn’t but it looks like the rest of the continent is getting it lately too.

Detroit definitely is. Stuff is cheap there and things are turning around, just doesn’t have the momentum or wider recognition of any of this yet.

There’s a reason why Portland Oregon was so well known for being weird. Parts of the city were dingy for a long time but if you were glass half full about that it meant living there was affordable. All the poor creatives could live in a city open to change, not just the folks with high paying bullshit jobs that normally are the only ones who can afford to live close to work in the city.

If I had the money to invest in some real estate, I would have bought stuff in the Detroit area since it’s got all the same ingredients to be the next Portland

I would assume hot earl gray tea came up in that conversation somewhere?

I very much am hoping that Gretchen Whitmer gets picked for VP. Trump picked Vance to draw in the Midwest votes, Gretch could easily kick him in the balls if picked

There’s also this company that caters to this sort of thing. I’ve been considering moving to this someday, maybe when my current phone dies. I’m the kind of person that needs a genuinely dumbed down phone to limit access since I’d just get the key out of the drawer and ‘cheat’ eventually.

I always assumed the reason was to get more tendrils into your phone for that sweet sweet data $$$ and allowing themselves more control over shoving notifications in your face.

Do I sound bitter?

No argument there. Was just the first video on the list

This is the most efficient way to peel potatoes

Comcast is sad that it can’t fuck us in hidden fees anymore. I feel terrible…just terrible for them.

Man you have no idea how annoying it is to dredge up enough effort to post comments and shit. Take it from me, a former 100% lurker on reddit

Good should not be the enemy of perfect.

Your concerns are valid, but there are only so many economically viable ways to produce energy and nuclear is plainly better than burning more fossil fuels despite the downsides.

Yes, we need to transition to 100% renewables(that dont take more energy in producing the equipment than its lifetime output) but until that comes to pass any option that isn’t actively killing us globally, eg, fossil fuels, should be on the table.

If I gotta breathe in smoke from a fire I’d prefer it be that sourdough fire.

But yeah it’s pretty bad here lately. This situation must have something to do with the tropical storm remnants, think it’s blocking in all of the smoke from blowing east

Meant as a tongue in cheek joke, but sure

In this particular case its intended literally as portrayed in the Spaceballs movie which is what makes this whole thing appalling.

But yeah, theres other use cases for bottled air.

Maybe companies that manufacture and sell oxygen tanks can get in on the game by driving out of town 20 miles and bottling that air out there and marketing it as ‘Great Outdoors’ bottled air

Deere has the most massive dealer network in the U.S./Canada. So when looking for a part farmers have an easier time finding them.

I have no doubt that this is caused at least partly by the decline of keeping spare parts on the shelf in a warehouse, something most companies did before everyone shifted to ‘just in time’ inventory management because it saved money up front.

But as it turns out ‘just in time’ doesnt work so great when a farmer needs a part right this moment since it relies on ordering then shipping only whats needed.

It probably made Deere’s dealer network look pretty good by comparison since they (presumably) stock parts that another farm store down the road doesnt carry.>

A canadian startup is already selling canned air.

Folks in places like china are buying it up presumably due to the air pollution they have. This article says they already cleared 300k in sales and are expanding their product lines to offer ‘flavoured air’.
