    Something something Biden bad
  • No yeah you're right let's vote for Trump. That will fix things.

    Or maybe people in battle ground states, that would vote for Biden, should vote for s 3rd party candidate, that will totally not be exactly the same as not voting at all and by extension helping trump. /S

    The time to pick a more progressive candidate was in 2020. We lost that battle. But if Bernie had won, moderate democracts might be saying bernie should be replaced right now with someone more palpable. I would say in that situation same thing I'm saying now: don't change the incumbent.

    The incumbent historically has had a huge advantage.

  • We can point out Trump is worse than Biden, while still pushing for a better candidate on 2028, that won't support genocide.

    Nobody is saying it's impossible.

  • Basically. They had the opportunity to make an interesting bad character, and even though they didn't kill them off quickly like with Maul, they said made the character boring.

    Wwyd if you were given a pocket dimension 3m cubed?
  • Which is why i Said relative to the earth. Doesn't matter where the earth is relative to the milky way or anything, if your position is based off the earth, just stay on earth to avoid issues.

    Wwyd if you were given a pocket dimension 3m cubed?
  • *It has a couple of plug sockets and can connect to internet from the region you teleported in from

    What do you mean connect to internet? usually that needs to work through a provider, and be hard wired. I think for this scenario its safer to assume you have radio signal access meaning you could have mobile data and calling.

    I'm also assuming the teleportation is relative to the earth so If I'm on a plane, I wouldnt' want to teleport into my pocket dimension as I'd teleport out of it away from the plane.

    One thing that comes to mind is you're basically an extremely hard to catch drug smuggler. The only time anyone will ever find drugs on you is when you're taking it out or into the dimension. Heck, even in doing sales, you can't be easily caught because you can drop off the drugs somewhere remote, and pick up the cash elsewhere. Even if you get "ripped off" the biggest problem for you is the money lost on buying the product, and travel time.

    I think having a specialized emergency kit in the dimension would be very valuable. Maybe some explosives if you ever need to clear out an area though that should be rare. Canned food, and water. First aid kit. Some kind of smoke bomb (running away from a situation). Laptop with internet access (if you ever need to hide out, acts a entertainment and a way to hear what's going on in the world). Cardboard box that you can fit into (not certain whether you should teleport back somewhere because people are looking for you? Teleport back, inside the cardboard box to see if it's safe lol). Several rechargeable batteries since you basically have unlimited free power.

    I think one of the more practical uses is using it as a home. You can live almost anywhere and have at least a small home. Get a job in the highest paying area you can access, and live in your home for most of the time and you'll save so much because those high wages usually stem from high cost of living.

    I don't think you'd want to transport people because the more people that know about your ability, the more attention you'll get which is very bad. The only way transporting people really works is if they're transported while unconscious so they're not aware they were in another dimension.

  • Yeah for real, the characters were extremely interesting in TFA. Poe and the storm trooper(Boyega) had really cool chemistry. Rey was probably a bit more interesting at that point than later, Kylo I remember liking a lot too because of his conflict with the dark side that we've not really seen before. Palpatine was interesting as well because he didn't exist, yet.

    Elon Musk ‘Secretly’ Used Starlink To Foil A Ukrainian Attack On Russian Naval Fleet Over Fear Of Nuclear War: Report
  • Give an actual reason we shouldn't care about Russia's history of attacks, that show you're not ignorant of the topic, and I'll actually provide you an answer. Your reply appears extremely ignorant.

  • My solution doesn't appear to apply to you, since you're practically plastic free, but for others reading, i use my milk cartons and bread bags (where the sandwich bread is packaged) as plastic bags. I clean out the milk cartons with water and let them air dry. They don't smell, and I'm not using additional plastic for trash.

  • Lol, we tried your strategy, it just just emboldened Russia. Remember their attach on Georgia? How about their first invasion of Ukraine? Obviously, Russia wants to do what they want to do, especially if there's no consequences. Let's try this different approach and see if they feel being violent still helps them secure their goals.

    Man Fires His Gun During Road Rage Argument
  • You seem to be implying he didn't have it stashed while driving around. I didn't see proof of that, but its perfectly legal to drive with a gun in your car.

    Man Fires His Gun During Road Rage Argument
  • Don't know the whole situation, but with a gun pointed at you, you'd be an idiot to think he wouldn't kill you on camera. Either he had a good reason to pull it out, or he didn't, is an idiot and wouldn't think of the consequences.

    What's the best financial decision you've ever made?
  • I'd like to be able to do that, but I'm not certain how feasible it is for me. What's the weather like in your area, throughout the year? In mine it goes from about about 60 to 90 where I can't imagine wanting to ride my bike at about 90, and arrive not drenched in sweat. How much do you think a person would spend to purchase an Ebike? How many miles do you expect to ride per 10 minutes, if you're trying to get somewhere? Near some places I frequent, there's not good public transit, so if I took it, it would take like 3 times longer than by car. A bike may be nice, but then I'ld probably arrive sweaty and maybe still about 2 times longer than by car (i'm not familiar with expected speed of traveling on a bike).
