Kiting, a verb, not kite a noun. Kiting is the acting of moving away from an enemy while they chase you.

This is pretty sick, i also appreciate the archived copy.

This program provides a framework for other states to follow in California, and soon Washington's, footsteps in cutting down greenhouse gasses. its also initial steps for a federal program.

god damn Biden making Trump look bad again.

Even then, another bonus with biking vs drinking and driving, you can get off your bike and walk home with your bike. With cars you can't do the same, and, at least in my area, there a lot of times you can leave your car overnight at places. So there's a huge incentive to drive it or pay for a ticket (which of course, pay the ticket over a DUI, but still).

Most places i feel you can get away with riding drunk. Not swervey drunk, but more intoxicated than you should drive in a car. I don't feel cops really care too much for drunk cyclists.

I mention this, because some people drive drunk in a 2 ton vehicle capable for killing or maiming others. Those same drivers on a bicycle would be better (though there's still a chance for injury and death, more of that risk is to the rider than others)

Very interesting perspective.

Lol fr? I thought dart people were more on the normal side than the nerd side...

This is a real post on x. It technically isn't the same as the nazi slogan, but weirdly close. More info: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/labor-department-post-slammed_n_696499cae4b0db619f4af95e

This would help for sure, but housing stock is just so low in the US that prices will still remain high until that is fixed... or a large portion of the population dies.

To expand on this person's point for those not aware, economists believe that the 30 year loan is detrimental to the movement of house stock and also leads to unfair economical advantages to those that can afford them.

With 30 year loans, there's always a likelihood that mortgage rates will drop at some point in the loan, meaning you will probably refinance as low as possible when the opportunity presents itself. Because of this, when people's lives change, they're more reticent to move to another home because they'll likely lose their current low mortgage rate. Right now we're experiencing that since about 4ish years ago we had very low mortgage rates, that have since spiked. Older couples who's kids are adults that moved out? might not want to move to a smaller home that better suits their lifestyle without kids around. Possible new job opportunity elsewhere in the country or even the state? The pay needs to be high enough, and job reliable enough, to ensure that moving into a new home with a higher interest rate is worth it. All these examples lead to people not moving from existing homes, which becomes a sort of domino effect of people not leaving their existing homes and maybe unable to move to more appropriate homes. My understanding is, we're the only country in the world with a 30 year fixed loan. Other countries either have shorter fixed loans, or mixed loans(fixed for 10 years, then adjustable for the next 10 years, with limits on how much it changes).

What do you mean by least restricted?

This image seems like misleading bull shit. This seems to be the law referenced: https://apnews.com/article/minnesota-artificial-intelligence-nudification-x-elon-musk-deepfake-131184be939d540de093b567b12c9e16

It makes companies liable for people using ai for nudification (which of course includes children). Musk argues the law is a bit to far reaching ( claims the law considers some body parts, that are commonly displayed in public, as private parts and also that the company can get in trouble for people nudifying themselves).

I don't know how legitimate Musk's concerns are, but the image is extremely misleading.
