> The US is younger than a single Chinese dynasty.

Eh? There are like 60 Chinese dynasties throughout history. The US has been around longer than most of them. And some of the dynasties that were around longer than the US has been will lose that title if the US lasts another ~30 years. The Qing, Ming, Tang, etc. dynasties all lasted ~275 years, and the US has been around for 248 by now. But the vast majority of the Chinese dynasties lasted like 10 to 50 years.

Also many cities in America are walkable.

I fault the people complaining about performance of a city builder running at 1440p more than the developer. You're looking at concrete and asphalt and brick textures and shit like that. You don't need anything higher than 720p.

If you buy pine or oak or cedar you can be pretty darn sure it is regenerative. That's how the industry is able to exist: they cut the same fields of trees every 15-30 years.

If you're concerned, you can always plant a tree or two somewhere for every project you do that uses wood. There are lots of places that let you plant trees even outside your own property.

The hardwood family this article is about, ipe, is not grown at all in the US.

I'd sooner have real IDs tied to internet personas than this shit

That's not really "full self driving" if you are referring to the SAE scale. Level 5, the top, is fully autonomous driving, everywhere. What you are referring to is level 4; fully autonomous driving in specific geofenced areas on predetermined routes. Think Delamain in Cyberpunk 2077.

Buying a diploma is not really a bragging point.

As if college doesn't also require a lot of certification and training which is time consuming and costs money.

Oh my god yes trying to watch Carnival Row is freaking impossible during the day. But also, I'd be OK with worse picture if they would let the sound guys actually get a microphone within 20 feet of the actors.

Yes, actually. According to current FTC rules, canceling a subscription has to be as easy or easier than signing up for it. Lina Khan is great, and a shining example of why votes matter and both parties aren't the same.

Depends on your latitude. Here in Georgia in the US permanent DST is far better than permanent Standard Time. It might be bad up in Canada I suppose.

The vast majority of users never post an answer or a question, and most of those that post only once or twice never get upvoted (or get downvoted more than upvoted), so their reputation stays at 1.

I think they said a couple years ago that over 50 or 60% of registered users have 1 reputation.

Well, IE has not been receiving feature updates for over a year. It only receives security patches, and these days only critical ones. It is a dead browser; do not use it unless your job forces you to.
