  • Agriculture uses 98% of humanity's land usage

  • Yeah. Trump told you not to rely on Russian gas and did you listen? No, you didnt and now you buy Russian gas (through India), thus funding Russia, while telling us to shoulder the majority of the burden of funding Ukraine. Just for one example.

  • During peacetime, all the corn fields kept operational with subsidy that just create corn which is fed to livestock seem like a waste.

    But if China (or anybody else) pulls a fucky-wucky and makes it difficult to get food imported from outside the US, we slaughter the livestock and then have enough corn to feed the whole nation (and a lot of our allies). Without missing a beat.

  • It would only be like the 20th time "optional" features became intrusive, difficult to opt out of, then actually required, just as soon as they think they've boiled the frog enough.

  • Torn on whether we're supposed to be noticing what seems like dull plumage on the right of the clothesline (feather line?) And bright plumage on the left... Or if its just a quirk of the coloring.

  • The bottom 50% of households have an average net worth of $629?

  • Stellantis just got in hot water for pushing ads to the screens in Jeep and Chrysler cars. So... Just you wait. Even if it doesn't show you ads now, they can always update it.

  • Thats a 3rd gen corvette. The ones made in the early 70's were famously slow. That's the "malaise era" when the fuel crisis and emissions regulations meant that new cars coming out were less powerful than older ones. Technology hadn't caught up, especially for American cars which had large engines with older block designs.

  • So did any communism NOT collapse yet? Late stage communism seems to have killed Russia and all the third world countries that tried it, just look at Somalia. China functionally dropped communism (idk if they're better off for it but they did). Meanwhile free market countries are still around. Communism.mostly just seems to produce emigration and an above-average occurrence of famine.

  • Republican lawmakers grow alarmed over signs of 2026 election wipeout

    Jump

  • I remember when they were alarmed over a 2024 election wipeout.

  • Does anyone else miss traditional forums?

    Jump

  • Yeah, forums exist but they have a real hard time growing their userbase these days. It's just more deliberate to visit a particular forum's website, then usually click on a subforum, then look at a thread, and then see its contents. Then you might be on page 37 of a thread and people are all discussing that post from page 33. It's slow compared to something like Reddit/Lemmy or Xitter style sites that put the content right in your face without having to look around.

    I'm prone to falling for this myself even as I lament forums growing quiet. But I guess the best thing to do is link directly to forum threads from other social media and hope enough users trickle in.

    What I REALLY hate is Discord servers replacing forums for things like video game FAQs and it's really hard to find the latest announcement, bug workaround, or whatever without butting into the conversation and asking (you're the 48th person to ask today and people are a little annoyed).

  • Hm? No, explain it to me. The government shutdown caused SNAP to pause. AOC wanted to continue the shutdown. Am I missing anything?
