That cyclist is going to have very soggy feet. Better to have mudflaps that go down within a couple of inches of the road on the front mudguard, you have much drier feet that way :-)
Sigh. Yet another thing that must be sacrificed on the altar of the almighty motor car.
Looking forward to wave 3. Too bad but it has to be done.
One of the weaknesses with Lemmy I think is that communities themselves aren’t distributed - a problem solved by both Usenet and FidoNet decades ago (for instance, a FidoNet bulletin board ceasing meant that the community there would have to be moved to another BBS - the FidoNet echoes (“communities”) were themselves distributed so as a user you could just move to a new BBS and whole communities wouldn’t have to be moved. Similarly with Usenet - your usenet server get shut down? Just move to a new one and subscribe to all the same groups.
The OP is clearly using hyperbole. But only 1% of the welfare bill goes on unemployment benefits, so even if absolutely everyone on unemployment benefits is cheating and you cut them off, you don’t save much. In reality the majority of people on unemployment benefits are not cheating the system - a system that already sanctions the unemployed for not actively seeking work.
Never. We had a work lunch and one of the guys a few days later said “I just tested positive for covid, better test”. About 2 days later I was testing positive, but none of us in the household ever had any symptoms other than testing positive (about 4 days in, the LFT was going bright red as soon as the liquid reached the test line). None of us ever had so much as a sniffle. The guy we got it off was really rough for a few days.
Not only that, but they will make an ungodly racket while doing so. Multi propellers all turning at a slightly different RPM, with all the annoying beat frequencies this will create. They will also likely be almost as expensive as helicopters (only a very small amount of a helicopter’s cost is its fuel, the overwhelming majority is maintenance and insurance).
A road rage conviction should result in a lifetime ban or until a medical professional can certify that the person is mentally fit to drive.
