I’ve installed Linux mint cinnamon on some PCs for other people. It’s okay. I still run into errors and difficulties but for your average non techie person it might work if someone else gets them started.

Have they been around long? I lived in Oregon, California and Washington but it’s been awhile

I’m anti Kroger - my wife and daughter both worked there after the pandemic. They’re definitely union around here but they’ve negotiated the worst wages in the area. You make $13/hr and still have to pay dues.

I’ve been to 47 states and a bunch of countries, I’ve never seen a winco

My dad’s brother just kept answering the door naked and they stopped coming back. Her devil vagina magic might have worked if she was cute.

I think the question OP didn’t want to ask was, “does all of this dick in my ass affect my poops?”

Dammit is this how we got the Lion & Wardrobe and such?

but 69 F is nice

I drive a Subaru Crosstrek. It isn’t the most fuel efficient vehicle on the earth but it’s pretty good among vehicles that can handle the terrible dirt/gravel/unimproved roads I’m often on. I’ve owned a couple of big trucks, but I used them hard every week. I don’t need one now. If that changes, I’ll buy another one. Some of those big trucks are actually pretty efficient these days, although speed affects that a lot. “I can’t drive 55” but it would save a lot of fuel if you could.

In my area there are tons of bigger trucks. Delivery box vans, dump trucks hauling dirt or gravel, garbage trucks, school buses, fire trucks, ambulances, tow trucks, box trucks with 8 meter boxes (don’t need special license to drive). Not to mention full 18 wheel semi trucks that are everywhere and especially our highways. Almost none of our trucks, are cabovers, they have huge hoods on them.

Those pickup trucks really are usually the smallest trucks we see, and when you’re in one you still feel like you’re in a smaller vehicle compared to a lot of the other vehicles on our roads. It’s not brainwashed when it’s observable. I’ve lived in Europe the US and the roads are very different experiences.

It’s not a big obstacle to your theory in your mind. A lot of rural people would go to war before being forced to abandon their properties. It becomes a pretty big problem to reality then. And in some of the more rural areas the backroad dirt or gravel connectors are maintained by the residents. You should spend a couple of days exploring the upper peninsula in Michigan. You need at minimum an AWD vehicle with a foot of ground clearance. There’s honestly like one paved road.

I don’t live in a place like that, I live in a shitty suburb with no sidewalks or bike lanes, or even a shoulder on the road. You can’t go anywhere without a car, it’s deadly. But I do vacation in places like I was describing almost exclusively. And most of them would never move to a city. But you’d just force them? My politics are anti-authoritarian. If I understand you correctly, you would empower monsters to do heinous things to your own citizens.

Except we already have built it wrong. Maybe if the government bought all of those houses and re-zomed the land forbidding houses but we’re talking more than 10 million homes (probably WAY more) probably $4 trillion+ and that isn’t even accounting for building new infrastructure. Not to mention people would refuse to leave their land. Realistically this is probably a $50 trillion undertaking.

Civilians used to own canons. For blowing up ships. And the occasional home invader. Doesn’t matter if it has sailed if we sink it. We should sink that ship.

Yeah I’m thinking about leaving Lemmy. Not sure where to go but this place does not have diversity of thought or dialog.

My thought exactly. They can always do like me and nope the fuck out of there.

I came here to make sure someone had said this. I usually have a wolf spiderbro in my bathroom. I talked to one this morning in fact, he was a new, smaller one though. They’re great. Eat bugs, no webs. Not significantly dangerous at all.

They definitely slam white people’s heads into the ground for telling them no, too.

Man, Ohio is now in Turkiye. Not sure if I’m more excited about the mountains or dreading the time in the restrooms.

It eventually got so hot it got SWOLL and rose up out of the sea.
