@Goalkeeper @jb There's a lesson to be learned in all things.
> General facts may indeed be collected from them, such as that Europe is now at war, that Bonaparte has been a successful warrior, that he has subjected a great portion of Europe to his will, &c., &c.; but no details can be relied on. I will add, that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods & errors

There was an Anglo-Saxon bishop named Chad, coming from a Celtic word meaning “battle”. He later became a saint.

Because this gets us from point A to point B relatively peacefully, without splitting atoms over major cities...
And what? There's nothing left of any of these cities. It's already over.
They will be dead.
Their kids are fucked

Perhaps I'm overly optimistic, but I think there is finally a robot lawn mower that looks decent enough for me to buy and try.
I have been waiting YEARS for a no-wire tracked mower with actual mulching blades (instead of the silly razor blades or string trimmer hunks of junk).
It certainly isn't cheap, but if it lasts for 3+ years and I don't have to mow for 3 hours each weekend, then it's a good buy.
