Given that I don’t have any personal gain from proliferating biking as a means of personal transportation, I’d rather consider myself a bike preacher.

A decent bike needn’t be expensive. For as little as 300€, you can have a new bike that’ll do just fine for recreational use and simple commutes. Used bikes can usually be had really cheap, too, but for that you’d best know how to check the components and what to look for.
Race bikes, mountain bikes and pedelecs are a different thing, but those are either specialty sports equipment or luxury items.
Either way, (normal) bikes are easy and cheap to maintain, if used correctly.
Your thoughts are valid and I agree – in principle.
The proportionate punishment does, however, depend on the severity of the violation. In an academic context, there are few things as severe as blatant plagiarism. Being caught in not just cheating but brazenly copy-pasting other people’s work can imho be appropriately punished with expulsion, be it in the US or elsewhere.
On the flip side, all threat of consequences works as a deterrent only when there’s the expectation to be caught and punished.
By always catching but never handing out punishment to kids violating rules, you only teach them that consequences are inconsequential.
Fastest speedrun was like not even 10 minutes.
And that was to beat him. Just reaching him and dying to him should go substantially faster:
Property acquisition in the US more expensive than in Europe? I think not, at least for the immense swaths of land that make up most of the US’ land mass.
The legal fees I see, but that’s why most developed nations have legislature for disowning property owners of land necessary for infrastructure at a set compensation. Whether that’s fair or just is up for ideological debate, I’m sure.
The Commission transmitted a proposal to the European Parliament. The Parliament and the European Council have to discuss and pass the proposal for it to go into effect.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’d be more fitting to mandate every product to include its ecological price. Disposable vapes, for example, would disappear instantly.
Oooooh, that’s a neat idea in light of the current EU legislation concerning the Right to Repair: Introduce a mandatory, highly visible, and standardized seal that all electronic devices have to display on the front of their box:
Repairable
or
Disposable
I hope Unity’s legal team is prepared.
I really hope they’re not, because this practice needs to crash and burn brightly as a warning beacon to other corpos’ grubby fingers.
Ham, cheese, and mayo it is.
I’ll raise you some mozzarella.
What about potato salad, noodle salad and similar dishes containing cooked components?
Tuna and mayo it is.
More like when someone leaves a fingerprint on actual professional image editing equipment (refer to this insightful post by another lemmyng) and just rubbing spit on the screen will damage to screen.
For a phone screen, this cloth is overkill and absolutely unnecessary. You should put a sacrificial glass screen over expensive-to-replace phone screens anyway.
It gets much easier once you factor in that you, yourself, aren’t static and constant. The task isn’t to find someone capable of becoming perfect for you, it’s finding someone whose compatibility and willingness when taken into account with your own offers a fair chance to grow into a symbiotic relationship.
That’s an important distinction that too few people understand:
Psychiatrists: medical doctors with a specialization in mental health who can prescribe drugs
Psychologists: trained professionals with an academic degree who provide mental health care by (generally) talking with you
Both are important health care providers, but they generally do very different things, and in a mental health crisis you best have one of each at hand.
Seeing that deploying airbags hit like a fist to the face and regularly break noses, maybe reframing airbags as airbombs would suffice as a deterrent.
