@scottmiller42@mstdn.social @sarahtaber@mastodon.online If there were an argument that "saving the family farm" was good policy to avoid monopolism, I'd favor some effort in that direction.
Since this tiny family farm likely has around 4 square miles of land, ... nah.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social But they're much better, higher tech hospitals.
The insulin we won't provide is of a much higher quality and we're watching the planet burn in high color on wide, wide, screens.
Progress! \s

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social It is too small.
To get a solar farm to produce 9GW, they'd need 90,000 acres.

@dramypsyd@ohai.social Sorry, math fail:
I'm square and a square squared.
I wondered if it was worth correcting. Now I know.

@david_crispin@mstdn.ca @andyb@mastodon.au Seems correct.
The original smoke detector likely needed the $400 analysis: a replacement should be included with the first.

@farah The avoidance is the brain exercise.
The actual exercise should be meditative, brain relaxation.

@jojo @briankrebs Since they've been making 'em for Russia, they likely have efficient factories, stockpiles.

@wlaatje It has taken years to get to this point where the robot has a moveable waist and ankles.
It does not swing both arms.
Another year and it might be able to fall gracefully. Huge programming challenge!
Trail running is way down the road yet.

@MichaelTBacon Entirely possible that "Jesus" is a composite of several people so differences among the descriptions are all "true".

@quinn Still irrelevant.
Failure to vote (voting third party) is surrender to chaos.
Trump was the greater evil, no matter how evil was the alternative.
Replying to
@quinn Reality is a brutal master.
There are only two ways to change things in this country.
Either vote for the lesser evil (Primary and General) or start shooting.
Failing to vote means they don't have to pay you any mind. Failing to vote helps their gerrymander for free.
Replying to
@cshlan The DNC runs the candidates who run.
They run the candidates who win primaries, not random people chosen by alien reptiles.
Those who fail to vote in primaries allow bad candidates to run in Generals.
Those who fail to vote in General elections leave all the decisions to their opponents.

@scottsantens@hachyderm.io Property taxes should be bot progressive and cumulative (?).
All your property values should be added together and then taxed in a progressive way.
"Property" should include wealth beyond "land".

@samlitzinger@journa.host Trump gift to the party if he vetoes it.
They can over ride, claim to work for the people, and show that they are not spineless Trumpers.

@lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org Yeah, seems like it was easy (for other kids, not me) to play with but then, all of a sudden, it disappeared.

@quinn@social.circl.lu Irrelevant.
The reason Spanky won is that a whole bunch of people failed to vote. They knew trump was a fool but couldn't bring themselves to vote for that black lady.
The choice was a choice. One obvious idiot vs a black lady, but they couldn't make that decision.
