Good question, I copied this response from Quora, but looks legit to me, feel free to do more digging as required. The equation doesn’t copy well here, but you can Google it and find the answer with the equation intact.

Let’s assume that you have a 1500 kg car including baggage, driver, etc. You want then to add another 65 kg passenger. Since fuel consumption is highly dependent on driving style and on the routes you take, let’s also assume that your average fuel consumption is 6.0 L/100 km, considering no extra passengers. The last assumption I’d make is that fuel consumption increases linearly with car weight, if the weight deviations are low.

We can use a simple proportion to estimate the fuel consumption with the added weight, considering all of the above assumptions:

(Removed equation would be here)

That is a 4.33% increase on fuel consumption.

These assumptions may not be very accurate, but personally I believe that this estimation is a worst-case scenario.

Your car charges extra for it via gas consumed

Non-gendered bathrooms aren’t just the same bathrooms we currently have, but just letting everyone in. It’s either a single room with a toilet and sink, or a stall that completely closes from floor to ceiling on all sides, then having communal sinks. I’m definitely more in favor of having sinks more out in the open, because not enough people wash their hands, and maybe that would help.

To be fair, usually (absolutely not all the time), it’s idiots who want to do something dumb like this. Idiots can just download pre-engineered weapons and hit print. It takes a lot more thought to manufacture a metal weapon. So that takes out a huge barrier to entry.

There’s a variant called ‘horde’ on lichess where it’s evenly balanced, and pretty fun!

Probably, have you watched war dogs? It’s pretty much that.

Well that’s what he’s saying, it’s not immediate.

Probably not Finland or some other European countries. As long as it’s not sexual.
