I told my boss that I was going to have to reduce my hours back to weekends only because college was starting back up again which meant I couldn't do week day shifts, so they put me down for two mid week shifts and didn't tell me about them, then they used that as an excuse to fire me.

Attempts to bring lynx back to Scotland, it’ll stabilise the ecosystem for the first time since the Middle Ages

A ticket for 53 in a 50? Either you were using a GPS speedo instead of the mechanical one in the car or you were actually going faster than you thought.

Here in the UK speedometers are required to read fast and all speed cameras have 5mph dead zone to account for errors in the reading so doing 53mph on the speedo wouldn’t even set off a camera. Obviously idk about the US but it seems a bit stupid not to have a system similar to the UK one.

Tiny takeaway with a rich owner, hires on the spot, cash in hand payments, no contracts and most regular deliveries are to houses that stink of weed. Pretty sure that one would be a front (but it’s a front that does good food)

That’s the whole reason gold even has value, for 99% of human history it was worthless but people thought it was pretty so it became expensive.

At the moment the deer population has to be controlled by humans because otherwise they’ll completely destroy entire forests, when lynx are introduced they’ll prey on the deer so humans don’t have to and the forests can recover.

All I can think of is that Lollipopman joke where Checo says Max needs to up his overtaking game or Helmut will be coming for him.

Call me a weeb if you want but my favourite is still the AE86, but honestly I like most 80s/90s cars. I prefer the boxy look over the bubbly 2000s look and most cars after the turn of the century are just bland.

As someone who used to be a delivery driver in the uk the idea of getting a tip for doing a shitty job is bat shit insane, I almost never got tips beyond people telling me to keep the change and even when I did get a tip it was usually £2 for driving about 20 miles to do a delivery.

The absolute highest tip I ever got was £10 for delivering 2 full bags of food to a super rich neighbourhood in about 15 mins because it was the first house on my route. (And that £10 was still less than 10% of the cost of the order.)

A few weeks ago I commented on one of these posts saying I’d played cyberpunk for so long that I none of my games were interesting and I’d been flicking through stuff like RDR2 and transport fever but wasn’t getting invested.

2 weeks later all I’ve been playing is RDR2, it’s so immersive now that I’ve got a new GPU and I can max out the settings in 4K.

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

It costs about £1.80 per litre to make your own bio diesel in the uk at the moment using supermarket vegetable oil (or even less if you bulk buy) so I don’t see eco fuels being so expensive that it’s unaffordable to anyone who can already afford a car.

The one time I slept in a plane for more than an hour was when I wrapped my head in a blanket and had an empty seat next to me to lean on.

It’s cheaper to buy RDR2 offline only than it is to buy the RDR1 re-release so I really don’t understand what they’re trying to achieve here. Not to mention they still haven’t brought it to PC.

If left unchecked yes, but if it’s someone’s pet then it won’t be unchecked. I still believe that all pet cats should be neutered (until we have the stray population down anyway) but if they have been neutered then you shouldn’t force them to live their lives indoors (again if you’re in the natural ranges for the wildcats they descended from). Cats have extremely large territorial ranges so unless you live in a mansion your cat will not have enough space if they are stuck indoors 24/7.

Steins;Gate is my all time favourite anime and I wish there were more shows like it. It's also the only show I've ever watched more than twice (and I've only ever watched 3 shows more than once including S;G).

Homemade blue cheese.

High pressure hydrogen is a thing too and regular petrol engines can be converted to run on it. Toyota already did it with an old corolla and a rally Yaris https://mag.toyota.co.uk/restomod-ae86/ https://mag.toyota.co.uk/hydrogen-gr-yaris-showcases-experimental-engine/ so not fully shutting the door but still a big hindrance.

There is no difference between a domestic cat and a wildcat, as in they're able to interbreed because they're genetically the same species. So if you're in a region where they would naturally exist (effectively all of Eurasia) then it's perfectly fine to let your cats go outside.

TLDR: It's only bad to let your cats out if you live in the Americas or Australia.
