    Most of society’s electricity IS from fossil fuels. It has to be charged somehow.

    Also the caps were attached to keep the bottle from becoming two separate pieces to help store plastic waste in a more consolidated manner. Also less choking hazards for animals and children.

      i’m so excited for when i finally have enough money to buy: an RV with enough solar panels on it to recharge an EV and an EV powerful enough to tow the damn RV.

      what’s the electric version of rolling coal? blasting Leslie Gore when we pass someone? that will be so fun.

      I was going to say the same thing.

      It’s amazing how many people just think electricity comes magically from the ether

            Well, all you had to do was learn a foreign language (your fourth), have a job in technology, spend a year preparing, get rid of most of your possessions, abandon your family and friends, move over 10,000 KM, change hemispheres, then find a job before you run out of money, and finally, you too could have spent a year in freedom and then have it all collapse as a part of the pandemic and AI boom.

            I’m not doing OK. BTW, 19th of November is international men’s day. Maybe if people want the chuds to STFU on march 8th, reach out to people next month.

                Pay attention to how much of a fuss is made to the problems that men that aren’t powerful face on November 19th and you’ll understand why.

                I’ll try to remember to let you know this time around.
