Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warns of potential impact of 2024 election
  • I think most didn’t vote because they are apathetic, ill-informed morons with the attention span of a gnat. They don’t understand inflation, tariffs, deflation, international relations, trade, renewable energy, oil production, gas prices, vaccines, healthcare, or much of anything else. They also don’t care to learn about how anything works. It’s not like the last chapter of the history book on the United States is going to blame the pro-democracy candidate for not doing enough to appeal to a public that was too lazy to continue living in a democracy. They have access to more educational resources than any humans in history and they just ignore it.

  • Guess who's back
  • I feel like he should attempt to order that to see if anyone is willing to carry it out, for no other reason than to see if they're willing to do the same when Trump orders it.

  • Truck bloat is bad, sure, but have they even considered NOT buying a truck?
  • Lumber is the main reason I miss my small 90s truck. Lumber delivery is $75 to $100 depending on which place you order from. That’s fine for big jobs but I often just need a few boards or a sheet of plywood. Places like Lowe’s have truck rentals but then you have to make two trips back and forth. If I do place a delivery order I have to buy lumber for multiple projects and buy in excess of what I need just to be sure I’ll have enough.

    I also don’t have trash pickup here and loading trash into a truck bed is much nicer than putting it into the trunk with potential smell and leakage issues.

  • Eat lead
  • Lead 204 is entirely primordial and the other isotopes found on earth would be found at roughly the same concentration were all of the lead on earth primordial. It's the excess ratios of the other isotopes of lead that can be attributed to radioactive decay. That is a substantial proportion of the lead on earth, but to say the "existence of lead" is proof of the age of the earth is entirely incorrect.

  • Alpha-gal syndrome
  • I have this. Had a lone-star tick on my right shoulder blade and didn't notice until it started itching. The wound site took over a year to heal and would still randomly itch for a decade. Took me forever to figure out what was causing the allergic reactions because there's a 3+ hour delay before you experience symptoms.

  • South Korea fires warning shots after North blows up roads
  • The photo the DPRK released showed a fairly small drone with a triangular shape. It doesn’t look sufficiently large to fly all the way from the ROK to Pyongyang, drop some leaflets and return to the south, meaning they should have been able to recover the crashed drone. Also, if it were a civilian group, they usually take credit for the balloons they send and none have said anything about sending a drone to the north. It really seems like something might be going on internally and the DPRK is trying to blame whatever is happening on outside agitation.

  • Kia launches the 2025 Ray EV starting under $21,000
  • It's for the Korean market. It'll get you from Seoul to the east coast on a single charge and there's high-speed rail just about everywhere for your longer journeys. Perfectly fine for most people in such a small, densely-populated country.

  • Tugboat powered by ammonia sails for the first time, showing how to cut emissions from shipping
  • If you have solar paired with proton exchange membrane electrolysis, you can generate hydrogen very economically. PEM electrolyzers are already around 80% efficient but supply is limited right now. Hydrogen is a pain to store, but if you feed that hydrogen into the Haber-Bosch process you can very efficiently produce ammonia. Ammonia fuel cells are very promising if you're looking to decarbonize container shipping.
