  • It's usa-specific, isn't it?

  • A reminder to wear pigeon poop protection caps

  • Just commenting so you have one more line to read

  • Teach us your ways!

  • Most of that happens when someone is not used to go out. It gets better with being used to it. Also, avoid going out or staying in the open during peak sun hours (usually from 10h to 14h, but depends on the season and latitude).

    Also, if going to places with high grass or something like that, use pants and closed shoes

  • I didn't really like the name microslop, but after their reactions, now I love and use it

  • That would be like a dream come true. I'm about to become excluded from mobile technology as my phone seems to be starting to present hardware failures, and I can't stand to use large ones.

  • For people who don't watch videos in the phone, e-ink already offer nice refresh ratios. There are also a few with dual screens.

    By the way, there's also the nxtpaper technology, which I'm pretty curious about, but I never used it to know if it's really good for the eyes

  • There's so much people becoming vegans. We got to keep milk in high demand somehow! /s

  • In my experience, they have always been one of the less painful custom rom experiences, but for some reason, overlooked by the community

  • It would be very interesting if that ended stimulating alternate energy sources and lowering the USA influence globally

  • Urban density isn't the best solution. The greater the density, the greater the pressure for resources in a city (especially water), and the more fragile and dependent on imports it is.

    For a much better solution, look at medium-sized cities in the developing countries. The places are mostly walkable, have everything one needs in small to medium shops spread around, have rural areas in the vicinities that can support the place entirely, so thay're resilient to situations just like this one, with oil prices going up. Medium cities like that could be close to each other, with the populations fairly spread in medium-sized clusteres. That are many more benefits, like much less losses in energy transmission and in the food chain, but it would require a too long text to say it all

    Dense cities might look like less from oil, but they need a constant input of resources from far far away, being more dependent on oil and exposed to global instabilities than people think.

  • Faith in Faith

  • Plot twist: op was ironic, meaning that with a large enough support network, even mosters can manipulate the public opinion to appear as decent people, while without such network, even decent people can be unjustly flagged as monsters and will be helpless to prove their innocence

  • Like male cochineals, who can't feed themselves after reaching adulthood, but are able to reproduce before dying of hunger. Evolution can be really cruel.

  • The photos might be from different sensors/cameras. You can also notice that the second seems to have a different lens angle of view.

    But why not use images taken with the same instrument at the exactly the same time of the year? Because we don't have availability! Companies like maxar definitely have standardized high resolution aerial images from the entire world at regular intervals, but these images aren't free to the public, so we have to do with what we have available.

    If skeptical, you can use google earth to see some high resolution historical images of the place, or you can grab some lower-resolution images from copernicus

  • Yes, we can get easily images from landsat or sentinel satellites, but the resolution isn't enough for seeing individual buildings like that, unfortunately. there are also the cbers ans an indian satellite which I don't remember the name, offering free high resolution images (still not on par with the ones in google maps), but will lack global coverage

  • It's like the mr worldwide meme

  • One more boycott I can't join because I never touched the company lol
