Sure. But this is kinda just accelerationism/xenophobia, no? For example, replace "Idaho" with "Mexico" in your argument, and it gets pretty ugly pretty fast IMHO.

ID residents should be banned from receiving medical care in WA.
But I think accelerationist policies often hurt vulnerable people...
An incidental exchange of earwax with your (romantic/sexual/life) partner is
how do I put this?
not particularly noteworthy for a lot of folks...
...and I don't see it motivating people to go vote.
But it can do the opposite perhaps
"motivate" people to stay home who would otherwise vote R. Not that, in general, we should be celebrating voter apathy, but I think that some of these endorsements could dishearten folks enough that they end up abstaining.
Track stands! Not a contradiction to your statement at all though: you need to be moving just ever so slightly.
With a fixie it's easy, because you can pedal forwards and backwards in tiny amounts. With a freewheel, it's trickier but you get the hang of it with practice. Ideally you'll have an incline, so you pedal forward to go forward, and ease up to slide back. After some practice I can use the raised reflective paint from e.g. crosswalks as the "incline." This miniscule motion is enough to balance
and like you said, it ain't the angular momentum that does it.
I think you need to include energy cost in the preparation stage. Bread requires a hot oven, which is a real amount of electricity
it's close to $0.40/kWh where I live. From this link it says that a bread maker uses only .36kWh, but an electric oven would be more like 1.6kWh. So bakita single loaf of bread, you end up with a not insubstantial fraction of the total cost going to heating the oven.
Of course, many bull foods require heat, so it gets a little sticky this way. Oats/oatmeal probably wins out here, as you can just soak them overnight.
A bit nuanced in drought-prone places, though
stone is, well, drought-friendly, but a typical lawn is most certainly not. Best would maybe be drought-resistant native plants...
Ford, Harley- Davidson and Lowe’s are among the companies that announced they would no longer participate in the Corporate Equality Index.
Meanwhile, here are the ones that did well on the Corporate Equality Index link.
Right. But I think it's a mischaracterization to represent the EC as a "technicality," as it's very central to the way voting in the USA works. Don't get me wrong, I think it's stupid and should be abolished, but it's very much ingrained in the voting system.
I think I'd counter your example
keeping the sports theme
by saying it's like the World Series: it doesn't matter if there are three absolute blowouts, all the matters is who wins four games. So you could easily win the World Series, but have fewer total runs across seven games (game = EC votes, runs = popular).
(Again, I think the EC should absolutely be abolished.)
Yeah, "serious" cycling
a sport where a $1k bike barely qualifies as a bike, $5k gets you something rideable, and $10k gets you a pretty decent bike
is so anti-consumer!
(I love cycling, and I'll defend spending more on my power meter pedels than I would spend on a decent used bike. More bike lanes everywhere please!)
And water has great heat capacity, with a nice phase change, too.
From reading other links in this post, it sounds like pollution (runoff) is a concern, which is unfortunate.
Yes and no
from a different article:
(The original article said 5M radiation, which should be around 60MHz.)
So Starlink is emitting RF in spectrum where they shouldn't, which is avoidable, but takes effort.
My guess, and I could be wrong, is that this could be related to something other than the radio(s), such as switching power supplies finding opportunistic structures from which to radiate.
