That will never fly with the public , especially since one of the "normal" conditions is giving up the pound, joining the Euro, and giving up direct control of their monetary policy. There is no way a majority would support that in the UK . None of these polls will even bother asking something like that. The polls are about whether they want to turn back time to before Brexit, which is somewhat interesting but isn't possible.

It's a completely moot point for another reason. The EU isn't just going to let them back in with the same sweetheart deal they got as founding members. That alone means this won't happen for decades if at all .

I'm still not over learning that ponies aren't just young horses.

Yeah one of the main causes of the downfall of chariot warfare in the ancient world was that horses were bred that could carry a fully armed rider with armour for a long enough period of time.

He was a brilliant chemical engineer who ended up having the most tragic of legacies . He probably had a greater effect on earth's ecosystem than any other single organism.

Western countries employing Indian coders are generally looking for the cheapest coders they can find who speak passable English. All of that sounds like you got what you paid for.

These people are causing their own suffering and contributing to that of many many others. Your instinct to boil this down to "political opinions" shows your own bias - since you can't defend the position itself you must reduce it to "just an opinion". Anthropogenic climate change is not a political opinion, it's a real thing that is happening in reality.

To this day bunker buster bombs consist of cardboard poster tubes filled Nokia phones.

Size really does matter for sites like this. Reddit still hosts many smaller subs for niche topics that often have limited toxicity. Lemmy can't match it yet unfortunately.
