ronl2k@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•White House Flips Out After Chicago Mayor Announces “ICE-Free Zones”English4·3 days agoSpears (pointy sticks) are the oldest weapon. They might have been created by non-humans. They helped us come down from the trees and vanquish large prey with teamwork.

ronl2k@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump insists grocery prices are down. Do Americans buy it?English1·4 days agoIncinerator toilets like the Incinolet don’t need septic or water. They can also be used to burn small trash. But there are downsides:
- Incinolet toilet: $3000
- Per flush: 2000 watts (120v), 3500 watts (240v)
- Incinerates at 1400°F

- Incineration cycles can be interrupted and restarted.
- Need a 5" vent hole pipe.

Other than that, MS Edge works exactly like Chrome.
Not that they weren’t used first, but rocks and clubs would not have allowed us to come down from the trees safely full-time. Pointy sticks allowed us to more safely injure and kill, while keeping claws and teeth at a distance.
