Correct. Giving meaningful choices is hard.

That moment when you look around for the most competent person, and come the sad conclusion that it's you

Model split also has it's downsides. For example:

Not every trip is the same in every country. Denmark commutes 22km on average, the Netherlands does 3km

Not every country travels as far. Someone who does 10km by train out of 100km has a much greater share than 20km out of 10.000.

99% this is why the Tu-22 used ethanol for coolant. If you do your maintenance properly, you get free booze after every successful landing.

Also, the price point determines the sort of people looking at your add

Choice can't exist without information. If you know nothing, you can't chose. If two doors are perfectly the same, it's not a choice. If you have no information on either path in the forest, you're not really choosing.

Brakes cost money

Only half? They must have taken some impressive anti-corruption measures to get it down.

Wait, my memory says you flap your hair with your hands. Is it really ear stroking?

So does reality, I wonder what causes it.

Meanwhile, basically every Dutch students "dates" by bike, and most of London dates via the Underground.

A lot can be legal if you agree to it. But they absolutely can't unilaterally declare this rule into effect.

Just don't pay, what are they gonna do? Sue you for damages that they admit themselves can't prove?

Because theyre either lying about, or blissfully unaware of their own shortcoming.

Or they work in sales.

Pretty sure that's not how consulates work..

"being mean to scabs is, itself, doing work."

Volunteer work is also work, and I'll gladly do this for free.

and should totally be done this time around.

Even if it gets resolved right now, we should still land a C130 in a stadium, just because.

A lot of the issues you mention are, at least in part, caused by not dying. For example, I've got asthma, but without bronchodialators I wouldn't be an asthma patient, I'd just be dead. Another is better diagnosis, melanoma are much easier to identify nowadays, and we actually do diagnosis. If you look at old death reports, they contain a LOT of "sickness of the X" or "natural causes" for people in their early 60s.

Oh absolutely, in the grand scheme of how fucked humanity is, most chemicals are barely a blip compared to ecosystem collapse and global warming.
