Is there a used electric truck old enough to be $20,000?

The closest thing I can think of is violence or loot boxes, but not all video games.

There may be a market.

The big 3 have been chasing larger trucks, effectively abandoning this market. I can see this being a farm truck that gets beat to shit.

That’s tech companies for you.

Why else would they make all this for free?

To add onto this, you’re also seeing a greater development of the nerd fan, propped up by fantasy football and gambling.

Before, a fan would be interested in their team and maybe a few others. You now have people dedicated to the league, treating it as the RNG running their games. That means knowing all teams, all players, and even how coaching staff will use players as that affects their own games and possibly even their own bottom lines.

I was labeled as gifted growing up, part of it being I was the smartest kid in the classroom in a lot of my classes. That generally meant that no one really celebrated if I did well academically since it was expected. It was really only a celebration if someone beat me. So I never got used to celebrating what I did since it would just piss people off.

My mom would also usually claim my accomplishments as her own since she raised me and my success was due, in large part, to her.

So I got used to not getting a sense of accomplishment when I accomplished something.

Goldmember…

A lot of print media is dead. Magazines have shriveled up. Newspapers are dying.

I don’t think the Internet provided an equivalent replacement.

For some reason, monogamy was the default in Europe, and that default goes back thousands of years. There were times when men could have second or more partners, but they were never on the same level as wife and any children born from these unions weren’t entitled to inherit anything from the father. It is just a cultural signifier that goes back before Christianity; Romans were monogamous.

To add to this, Western peoples have slowly redefined marriage over the past century to go from a man and his wife to the union of two people. This has given women more power in marriage while also allowing for same gender marriages, since gender is no longer a defining characteristic of marriage in a Western society. I would see same gender marriages being harder in a polygamous society as gender is hard coded into the rules.

As for the Western aversion to polygamy, you’ve seen a lot of people here describe polygamy as “less civilized”. That belief has been around for centuries, so it isn’t tied to marriage equality For instance, the statehood of Utah was delayed until the Mormon church gave up polygamy.

Moving out days are a great way to get cheap furniture. Troll apartment buildings at the end of the month and you can usually find some furniture getting thrown out. I still have some dumpster pieces that are in good condition.

Retired

There’s nothing like a cool body on a warm summer night.

I assume you are looking for passive methods that aren’t air conditioning.

As others have said, thick walls that have a thermal mass. It helps if you open the building at night to help cool the walls.

The structure should be as light as possible, both the walls and roof, to reflect back light.

Windows should have large awnings so direct light doesn’t enter during summer. Everything should be in the shade.

If you can, you can create a solar chimney by having a large and dark chimney on the south side of your building. Set your building up so that there is a natural air intake which comes from below ground, so you naturally pull in cool air.

The idea may be to get mods up to speed on moderation so they can take over with time.

Also, given than .ml is the developers’ instance, they are likely more focused on Lemmy than most mods are. So, the admins may be more protective because they are on Lemmy more than the mods.

Images get a grid. Everything else is a detailed list.

Republicans don’t care.

Even worse, there isn’t a next generation near the size of millennials. Part of the reason that millennials took over while Gen X didn’t was because of the size of the relative generations.

You’re also running into the issue that culture has become a lot more fragmented due to the Internet. You can present a millennial culture where most people may be aware of other subcultures even if they weren’t a part of them. I don’t know if that is going to happen for Gen Z or Alpha.

Yeah. That’s why social media tries to curtail that kind of communication.

Still enjoy the culture that I have while accepting that I’m old as fuck.

Sadly, I expect millennials to be more annoying than boomers when this transition happens.

Turn it off and touch grass.
