Its very small.

FWIW, though its been a while, I have done the math for this sort of stuff back when I was studying Mechanical Engineering in college.

It is, in is by a huge margin. Doing things in bulk, efficient, standardized ways, will always be more efficient, for any task.

Even if electricity were all created ONLY using standard car gasoline, generating electricity in bulk on some.giant fucking motor and distributing it out to electric vehicles, would be more efficient than a million little engines running around stopping and accellerating and generting power to power one vehicle.

Hell even generating it using a room full of standard car motors would be more efficient because they could be set to always run at peak fuel efficiency RPMs and gearing (which by design in cars is like 55-60mph).

Its probably just an advertising campaign to try to win the midterms. “SEE, FREEDOM.GAS. VOTE FOR FASCISM PLZ.”

Also, isn’t there already a gas station chain branded Freedom? Are they violating trademarks?

Yes, because supporting the GOP means they get to use slurs again. Thats what really matters.

Oh god the religious albums everywhere.

You are awakening some PTSD here…

Data centers are useful.

Massive AI data centers are not.

Same as I do now.

CDs.

You can rip CDs to digital easily. You can get them cheap at resale shops and garage sales.

I buy and listen to vinyls, but also I moatly only buy them for my top 5 artists, partly for display. I do buy some if Infind them cheap or they are special, but I don’t really collect vinyls. They are impractical.

One I read about once.

Bonking people over the head to knock them out.

If you manage to hit them hard enough to actually put them out like that, they are likely bleeding internally and going to die without immidiate hospital care. Maybe even die anyway.

I sat on the jury for a murder trial last year (maybe 2). It was impressive how inept both the defence and prosecution seemed and how flat out sloppy it all felt.

I have serious doubts that even with a “blue wave” the fuckass Dems will actually DO anything useful.

Yeah, thought that in 2024.

Oops.

Let me know when it actually manifests into reality, accountability, and jail times.

“Oops, welp, better get a new one with a stupid scowling Trump on it!”

– Idiot Administration probably

Jagged Little Pill

Yeah, this is why I don’t buy digital movies.

No DRM Free download option.

FWIW, I buy digital music all the time, because I can download it, back it up, etc.

Also keep in mind thats usually when they start, so latter in the year it may be 6 difference.

IE, A High School senior (12th grade) starts at 17, but probably ends at 18.

Seven is essentially 2nd grade. General rule is age minus 5.

If it lasts 5 years, maybe its durable enough.

Zero, total.

Bah, maybe in some backwater European country like Germany or France, no laws in Freedomville™ America, Laws are for COMMIES who hate capitalism!
