↑ This, but without the /s.
In particular, we need to protect the free market by creating a carbon tax to compensate for fossil fuels' negative externalities and level the playing field for "greener" competitors.
Not taxing carbon is anti-capitalist protectionism.
Now try adding up all the square footage parking spaces take.
For example, consider that adding a parking space to a 400 sq.ft. studio apartment — or adding two spaces to a 800 sq.ft. two-bedroom — effectively increases the total square footage by a whopping 50%. And since concrete parking decks are more expensive to build than habitable area of dwelling units, that likely represents a greater than 50% increase in costs.
And yet people unironically defend minimum parking requirements while simultaneously removed about housing costs.
Not necessarily. I, for one, mostly (i.e. at least a little bit >50%) blame the deliberately-low-density zoning code and early FHA policy (e.g. redlining and deliberately recommending car-centric development patterns).
Did Standard Oil and General Motors have a huge influence? Sure, but they didn't literally pass the laws.
The Oregon Trail Generation is just its own thing.
As an older millennial I use the phone just fine, thank you very much.
It's Facebook and other random proprietary crap being used for IRL communications (especially important stuff like community associations, etc.) that I can't deal with.
I've had a P.O. box for years because I don't want to disclose my home address when I register domains. Maybe I should check it one of these days...
I, for one would rather actively work to de-normalize it!
There, is that written accurately enough for you?
I am sure you believe that
...says the guy getting ratio'd hard, LOL.
I'm kinda picky about installing stuff on my phone (especially from untrustworthy sources like Google Play), and I like the additional vetting F-droid package maintainers do. Does "IzzyOnDroid" do similar vetting, or is it just grabbing whatever from upstream and distributing it without human intervention?
This is an oxymoron. Liberalism is right-wing.
This is the least-incorrect part of your comment, but it's still incorrect. You need to understand that it's possible for parties to be vastly different degrees of right-wing.
