100 is a bit much, a good ebike can cost several thousands. IMHO the main driver for adoption is the availability of dedicated infrastructure. I can afford an EV but chose to use a bike because the infrastructure is excellent where I live and it allows me to avoid traffic and congestion.

The only time I’ve seen frog legs was in biology class. I’ve never seen it on a menu anywhere. It might be a regional thing.

Good thing it happened in Japan. Here people would have burned with the plane arguing over who gets to get out first.

I use gitea, it works fine.

He didn’t need to buy them off, they’re all neoliberal shitheads, they’d lick his ass for free.

I have two kids and use a bike (for ecological reasons). I realize I’m incredibly lucky my area has very good and safe biking infrastructure. Had to upgrade to a electric cargo bike when the second one came about, but I don’t regret at all, it’s more’confortable and safer for the kids. I do own an old ICE car, which I considered replacing with a new EV, but since I drive maybe a few hundreds of kilometers per year, I figured it’d make more sense to keep the old diesel than to replace it.

Turns out there is another trial in France right now, for pretty much the same thing, concerning the centrist party. Left-wing parties have had similar practices too. As much as I hate Marine, this was and is still a very general behaviour of all political parties to misuse available funds for their benefits.

Black market cigarettes is a very real thing actually.

I don’t think cars are cheaper.

They did sign the CTBT in 1998, and don’t perform any test since 1996 so I don’t know what more you want.

That depends hugely on the region. They do it on Thursday where they say Chocolatine.

I don’t know where you live, but here the government doesn’t give a shit about eco-social organizations until they start to destroy costly things.

I considered it seriously even though I am fertile. The process is so complex, long and uncertain in my country (western Europe) that we chose to make new ones. Still considering to adopt when we get a bit older.

Suddenly going down seems to be a constant in my self hosted services though…
