A group of students emptied blue ink from pens onto the stair handrails for a graduation prank.

It ended with paramedics being called to the highschool with police and news crews. Staff and students started to think it was a biological threat of sorts, as multiple random students started to get blue hands and eyes.

Same school a different year a bunch of students got on the roof and spray painted all the skylights black.

The "news* cycle is too quick and the majority of people forget due to information overload.

Hopefully there are still a select few that organize and fight specific issues while the rest of the public moves to the next big story.

Instead of less fancy trims a more fancy bike or e-bike would be perfect.

I wish all people would ditch their cars for trains, subways, trams, buses and bikes.

Its amazing how much income is spent on owning a car not mentioning the cost of constantly having to buy fuel. On average the costs of fuel can be around the same if not a little more then the cost of the car brand new.

I do, most countries are a unitity of states, counties, or provinces.

It would be so confusing if Mexico never settled on a name for its united states and called themselves the United States of America

To add to the confusion. The Americas (or America) comprise the landmasses of North and South America in the Western Hemisphere

People living in North and South America (or the Americas) can also be called American or Americans if the were referring to the landmass.

Strangely the United States IMO is the only country that seems to indicate the landmass its situated on when using the full name, the United States of America. Not to mention the indication of a union of individual states as well.

Several single-word English demonym alternatives have been suggested over time, for example Columbian, Columbard, Fredonian, Frede, Unisian, United Statesian, Colonican, Appalacian, Usian, Washingtonian, Usonian, Uessian, U-S-ian, Uesican, and United Stater.

Saying someone is a United Statesian or Statesian is probably the closest to how other countries like Canada (Canadian) or Mexico (Mexican) refer to themselves. If we forget that pretty much all other countries are a unity of states, counties, and or provinces.

Some of these sports betting apps are becoming available in countries outside of the United States of America. So it should stock some worries.

We have 18 year olds in out country betting on what colours the gatorade will be during the Superbowl.

Its a shame it has to be diluted.

It kind of sucks because the people working at spaceX are actually doing great things as a whole.

Just sucks a person like muskrat is the face of it.

Anyone have experience with Kagi translate or LibreTranslate. How privacy respecting are they?

Are there any alternatives such as a self-hosted local translator?

Rules for thee, but not for me.

I dont understand why people are not more upset about this and rioting. I guess everyone is just burnt out tbh.

The article mentions that a car was involved but yet no mention if the driver is facing any consequences.

Would this collision have caused the same outcomes if the children hit anything other a car or motor vehicle?

It’s almost like all these things line up to push for consumers to want a cloud hosted Desktop

Any news article with a AI generated image being front and center I personally ignore right away.

I hear you. I imagine getting old living in a “american suburb” and no longer being able to get around independently. Especially once I loose the ability to safely operate a vehicle, for my own safety and everyone’s around me.

Coffee shops, butchers and pharmacies should always be within a quick 10min walk IMO in any suburb, or a short bike ride or tram away.

Most people now a day don’t drive, not because they can’t, but because most choose not to. Especially if they have access to viable and accessible alternatives like trains, subways, trams, buses or a bike.

I do agree with your statement “feeling trapped” and not able to go anywhere.

This TBH comes down to how our cities and towns are designed, somehow only assuming everyone no matter their age or background or income can drive. Hopefully this changes in the future someday to allow people to get around more enjoyably, independently, comfortably.

Now that being said driving schools exist. You can do a in class session for the written test, and then you can get a driving instructor that takes you around for 5 hours or more if you want to practice things like parking, parallel parking, left and right turns. You can also schedule longer sessions and multiple sessions as needed.

Yay! /s
