Some of those were hilarious, like the one who didn't know there were shots, so he just said he collapsed then was escorted off the stage, or the "I wish he would Van Gogh away" one

Give me your olives then. I don't mind

That would be fine if they were trying to reverse ALL personal vehicle adoption, but nooo.

The problem with this is that this will encourage Canada to do the same, like the good little brother it is, and we'll get fucked along with y'all -_-

We also use it to weigh down our fishing lines.. because we're that smart.

It's potential. Matter can go there. Saying there is an end to the universe means that at some point, there is no possible expansion. It also means we are completely ignoring the tiniest infinitly small chance that our big bang wasn't the only one. If you zoom out far enough, is there really zero chance that this "known universe" is actually just part of a greater whole?

imagining the universe as a contained thing with hard limits is what gives me the creep

I feel like I could talk about this for years, but I got video games to play. The short answer is I don't feel like I have to know what caused the matter to all be at the same place and then expand to be satisfied with an infinite universe of finite matter. I wish my brain could understand how time as we know it started with the big Bang, but I think I'm slightly too dumb for that.

Because the universe is expanding. If it were finite it wouldn't be able to expand. Emptiness is still "something". If we were "at the edge of the universe", we could still go further from the center, there would just be nothing for as far as we can perceive, maybe even infinitely, but then, we would be there. That makes it "a place".

"The cosmos is not infinite, has a beginning and an end"

The fact that everyone around me seems to be persuaded that there is a beginning in time is unnerving to me. In my head, cosmos has always been infinite, and will always be infinite. Even if nothing is there, it will still exist.

The idea that anything before the big bang is considered to not exist has so many things wrong with it that I struggle to internalize it. If matter cannot be made or destroyed, that means that there will always be matter in one form or another.

Most technology news your average layman is interested in is ads for new products and how tech companies turn out to not be so great to work for. I think that's why most news that appear on top don't really cover the fun stuff.

What I meant is that while foreign companies are profiting from these laws, it is the American car makers that lobbied for them. I also don't really care for any car company, but if I were to boycott car manufacturers, I would start with the American ones.

If you look closely, they are the three largest "car" manufacturers in North America.

I have something against lobbying for creating the word "jaywalking", destruction of historical black neighborhoods, and the SUV/pickup truck epidemic caused by their lobbying for reduced emission requirements on "light trucks".

I guess you could also add Tesla to the mix, since they're making such a big deal of their cyber truck.

Ford, General Motors, Stellantis.
