Onto the cow?

Cancer or disgust, we all have to choose our preferred consequences.

I couldn’t find spring rolls on AnyDice.com

The surveillance is a bit anal.

Politicians without cops become blowhards real quick.

Cops aren’t the root cause of evil, they’re just actively standing in the way of making progress (in theory).

The root cause of evil might actually be in most of us not cooperating when that’s needed.

get a skate park already, you two

Yeah, people should have small, quiet, electric motorcycles ridden by educated and defensive drivers with winter tires.

I had a two-stroke motorcycle that I rode to school all year round and yeah, I’d argue for bans on ICEs in motorcycles, harsher noise pollution/road safety laws/monitoring now.

They’re extremely loud and cause noise pollution

Combustion engines do that, two-wheeled motor vehicles can be built quiet.

They’re very dangerous on the road and have high accident rates

IIRC, most fatal accidents involving motorcycles result in motorcycle driver death, not so much others. Limiting speed or power (especially for young and learning drivers) might reduce fatalities.

They’re bad for the environment and cause air pollution

ICE engines. One point for road infrastructure in general (tires, asphalt), although their PM/NOx emissions should be compared to trucks or trains.

They’re extremely inefficient as they can only carry 1-2 people max

Inefficient in what way?

They can’t carry cargo

I think you know this is a bad argument.

They’re dangerous for pedestrians

What motorised vehicle isn’t? Which vehicle infrastructure isn’t? This one is oddly specific.

They’re very demanding to operate

Yes. I always saw that as a good thing, because it meant that I wouldn’t drive when I couldn’t or shouldn’t attention-wise.

They’re virtually useless in the winter when there’s snow, ice, and hail

Gear, restraint and skill issue. I found autumn rain much more dangerous.

The people who tend to drive them tend to be assholes who don’t respect road laws

True that.

sqeak

The party pooping or the fucking?

That’s why they take children for the job. “The children yearn for the hearts” as the saying goes and since we want to win hearts and minds this is what they do.

I never really understood what usenet actually was. How does it compare to Lemmy or Mastodon?

stroganoff?

Edit: Ahh strogan off…

Lemmy lore.

It is sooo relaxing when you don’t have a reason to clog the toilet
