no soup for you.
Article has no information whatsover about what they mean by “warmest year”.
More likely is a background/credit check service that runs statistical analysis on genetic factors that correlate with late payments or property damage as part of their renter screening service.
This drives me crazy with ddg. When it happens I use searx instead.
Public or private, it makes no difference to them.
We still scroll “down” to the “bottom” of the page, so how is moving your finger up more natural? Maybe i’m just old now.
That’s funny because I think commuter cars could maybe be replaced, but not trucks. How else do you haul supplies and materials for craft, industry, and agriculture? There’s sadly no viable alternative.
If we stay in debt to them, then it’s unlikely we’ll go to war. Who attacks their own investment?
oh you know you do, the english dress slutty like that.
Most likely your shoes don’t fit and you should try another size. Are you wearing through the outside first or the inside first?
Hey! We do have common ground! More frequent small towns/villages would definitely be a good thing. Idyllic, even. I don’t know how to get there from here though.
In my area it’s not really zoning laws; it’s just economics of scale. There used to be a convenience store/hardware/feed store just like 5 miles from my place. It went out of business 30 years ago when they put walmart and lowes in the city. If it were back, i could probably get by with a horse and buggy.
Fair enough, I guess. I was just hoping for a way out of my personal car dependency.
I would love to find a way out of needing them, but I think maybe you’re right. It’s just a necessity for us. Anyway if the city people can ditch their cars it will solve most of the ecological problem.
Towns and villages would be a lot nicer if we parked on the outskirts and walked, biked, or golf carted around. Not sure how to implement that though, at this point.
Thanks for the introduction, those bakfiets are really cool and I’d never heard of them before. I can imagine lots of scenarios where that would be useful. I might be able to take a load of groceries to and from a carpool with it.
Anyone who has animals, commercial or not, needs to haul more than that. For context, one cow eats around 50lbs a day in the winter. I only have three right now, but it takes maybe 5 to feed ourselves and the handful of houses around us.
I guess anyone who hauls feed for livestock needs a truck, unfortunately.
They had feed mills in carting distance, and they had hundreds of acres to grow their own food. With more people on earth, we usually have dozens of acres, at best, and one feed mill in the county, at best.
I definitely should have been more specific. I wouldn’t think of 4km from groceries as being rural at all-- like you said, I think that car problem can be solved with normal urban solutions.
Renting a car to haul is just… not even close to viable. That would approximately double my annual expenses. Besides, I can’t rent a car with no credit history and no way to get to the city to rent a car.
Hauling really does seem to be the sticking point. If you have to haul you’re kind of stuck with a car.
Yeah, I was surprised how many responses didn’t consider hauling at all. I really don’t need to commute anywhere at all. I’m happy just staying home. But I do have to haul hay bales, feed sacks, and 50lb sacks of groceries.
These are not mutually exclusive.
