Why doesn’t Cuba just build a canal through Panama?

I can’t spend more that $300 a year on medical bills. Not because that’s what I can afford, but because the rest is 100% covered by the government.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•13 actionable steps to do aside from going to a no kings rallyEnglish
1·4 days agoLike some of these could be quite impactful but there’s no reasoning given for why any are moreso than no kings.
Trying to create a viable third party for an electoral system is incongruent with the assumption that martial law is inevitable.
Compulsory “I’m not advocating violence” … You’re saying “do a Luigi”
Maybe say something about how mutual aid fills the gaps missed by the system and how if it grows then we can build systems with greater nuance and independence from the state thereby better protecting our communities against disasters and brutality from law enforcement.
“Read a book” types are the fucking worst.

Can’t say everything Nixon did was bad, at least we had the EPA.
Pedant here! The smog was a result of NOx emissions, not lead, but both were hazardous to public health which has always been the motivation for emission control.
Climate change concerns were just marketing on legislation. If climate change was the actual concern then there would have been smaller engines with better economy. But that would of course reduce oil demand so it’s commie shit.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca•What would happen if a helicopter/chopper chops a power line, does the helicopter get electrocuted to death?English
4·4 days agoYeah, there’s a wedge shape that creates a shearing stress on the wire while pushing a blade against it. It uses the momentum of the helicopter. Like when you cut paper by holding scissors open and just pushing them through.

4·5 days agoThis is called a Wire Strike. While the helicopter can conduct electricity it’s much less of a concern than damage or loss of control for the helicopter. The aluminum skin is actually protective for the occupants against shock. Think if the helicopter snags the line then it it can tear itself apart or simply end up in an unrecoverable flight path.
Many helicopters are fitted with [Wire Strike Prevention Systems] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_strike_protection_system) which just cut the wire.
I think the spotify shuffle+ algorithm weighs songs more when you’ve liked them more recently.
I’m also fairly confident the artist’s contract impacts the weight as well, especially for suggested songs not in your playlist.
Songs from the backlog get played, but at a much lower frequency. Random should have a relatively flat distribution, not a skewed bell curve.




The normal way. Flirting, talking, dating.
As long as someone is addressing their depression (e.g. therapy or whatever) and not expecting a relationship to fix it then it is fine and healthy to join one.
Granted loneliness can definitely cause depression, so an exceptional case there.
In terms of dark room vs. extrovert, i can speak from experience that both can feel lonely and the depressive episodes still come and go. IMO better to have higher highs because you’re getting the lows either way 🤷.
