Having lived in Tokyo for several years in the 2010s, this sounds absolutely miserable. Osaka is definitely not built for such a high influx of people at once.

That’s totally what the US voters were planning on happening when they voted for this dipshit. You’re welcome, world, we united you all against us!

Same.

Agreed, it’s an awful headline

Heh. With how they’re taking over the FEC and other election regulatory bodies in red states, I am not optimistic there’ll be normal/fair elections in the near future. Not that the pre-existing gerrymandering was fair to begin with in many states, but it’s going to get worse.

Right, but read the whole thread and there are tons who think that the people who crafted the bill also think that. Only a couple of the politicians are going down the chemtrail route and marketing it that way, which is why the bill itself is literally written to talk about geoengineering and cloud seeding and not fucking chemtrails.

You didn’t even read my comment, because you’re literally repeating what I just said.

Whatever, I’m done responding to this damn thread.

I mean, read the bill yourself. It’s banning cloud seeding. The politicians just lied and made it sound like the bill is going after conspiratorial chemtrails. It’s almost as if no one has read the fucking article with how much disagreement I’ve gotten.

The bill literally is about cloud seeding. The politicians marketed it as chemtrail bullshit, but that doesn’t change the actual content of the bill.

Cloud seeding is different than contrails. Think 99% of the people in this thread are confusing the two and making ignorant statements. They’re banning the former, not the latter.

Lots of ignorant comments in here. I’m not even an expert, but numerous scientists agree that the long-term effects of cloud seeding, aka “chemtrails” are not entirely known. However, there are known potential downsides, such as increased flooding and environmental pollution (from the silver iodide used to form the clouds). There are also other downsides to it, but I’m not going to dive into all of that because I’m lazy.

In short, banning cloud seeding isn’t that bad of an idea. Whether the cons outweigh the pros (increased precipitation is good for farmers/crops), that’s a debate worth having among our legislators and the scientific community.

though some suspiciously are.

Some? A huge portion are. Numerous others have replicated it with visual proof. I agree that the news sites should be verifying it, but NYT did and also documented their proof.

AI is useful for basic, mundane tasks and that’s about it. Trying to force it to be some sort of Uber search engine is such a bad idea.

Private schools don’t have to follow the same requirements as public schools already. The person above you is just inferring that since they’re already separate in the current system, the new ASVAB requirement would also be separate. But until it becomes an actual law, it isn’t super useful arguing hypotheticals in this context.

Fucking hell, it’s so depressing living during the collapse of an empire.

Oh 100%. He’s 13 years old and still acts like a big, dumb puppy. Yellow labs/labs in general tend to be like that, though. Just happy with life, haha.

Unless you’re my dog, who fucking loves going to the vet and groomer. He has zero survival instincts, though.

It’s damn near the very bottom lol, so I forgive myself for missing that. When I skim something for a product, I’m looking at the tech specs/BLUF message, not digging thru the entire page of text. Anyway, glad it’s all sorted out.

Thanks for the info! Was actually thinking my current watch’s battery was beginning to hold a charge less and less lately, so definitely keeping these in mind.

I did indeed skim pretty fast, but it doesn’t say that, it just says from 7 days to 30:
