Layers of bullshit. It's only made to distract us.

The problem with discarding plastic is not racism. The problem with discarding plastic is not food prices. The problem with discarding plastic is not poverty.

The only minor problem with discarding plastic is that it would briefly make a curve in the stock prices for companies involved in producing wrapping materials until they figure out how to make money off other better products.

Oh sure the technique of storing heat in stone is valid. Again, the Finnish have used it for long time in oven design. It's possible to get modern soap stone ovens for this purpose.

It could be interesting in a smaller scale or off grid purposes, but you'd still need solar panels as a source.

I doubt it's worth saving heat from a wood stove. It'd be better to burn less wood to begin with. Some of the modern pellet ovens are very efficient for that.

They use this system to convert excess renewable electricity to heat for storage to be used in the district heating system. There's probably a lot of loss in comparison to a regular battery, so the point is to utilize excess the electrify. It makes perfect sense in Finland because their electricity is a lot cleaner than their heating.

Most modern cars have hill assist, but it might still be a help to use the handbrake when starting on a hill, or at least know how to do it.

I've always hated the descriptions "girl group" and "boy group".

Imagine being a post-apocalyptic historian trying to make sense of what these people did or why they were famous enough to be pictured everywhere and the only description is that they were a group.

It's impossible to tell if they were a notorious mob group or famous for making gay group sex videos.

My best guess judging by the visible letters is that it either says "I like your mom" or "Bukakke Soccer Mom".

It's common knowledge that soldiers don't walk in unison on bridges. It dates back to 1831.

Same thing happened in France twenty years later:

It also postponed the opening of a bridge in London by two years in 2000:

Shit excuse. It takes more effort not to march in unison.

It's also something that is taught in UK army, since the collapsing bridge incident.

It's basically a very large sauna stone.

Det er simpelt flertal.

Hvis flertallet er "uvedkommende trafik" så skal kommunen gøre noget for at nedbringe trafikken eller overtage omkostningen.

Hvis flertallet er beboere på vejen, så skal resten af samfundet ikke belastes af omkostningen ved at vedligeholde vejen.

The birds are watching you.

Try leaving bird seeds. They'll know instantly, because they're always watching you.

If you don't leave bird seeds they will find your car and shit on it.
