The PNW seems like a nightmare for forest fires if things dried out, but I don't how weather patterns over there change with a warming climate. I know lol Ohio, but I think there eventually will be some movement to the Great Lakes region at some point when things start to get gnarly climate-wise. Lots of water and no real natural disasters outside of tornados. It could get kind of shaky if the jet stream weakened though and polar vortexes became more common. Everytime we get hit with one of those it's brutal.

We're already there: hundreds of thousands of acres (some years millions) burn every summer.

i am harry posted:I love this economist idea that they need to tell me that the economy is doing better i'm actually impressed with oreo shrinkflation. After shrinking the thickness of the filling down to what must be the physical limit of whatever machine places those disks they recently started shrinking the diameter of the thin filling as well. I'm curious how far corporations can go on a business model of giving the peasants as little bread as possible for every drop of blood in the stone.

from 2020-2022 wages at the median had no increase and above median fell. median in 2021 was 45,760. less than median wages went up. so in aggregate wages went up. but median and above folks are definitely worse off after inflation. if one is below median, one is still rather poor, and that hasn’t stopped sucking poo poo in the US.

outdoor use is messed up from instagram, and everyone wants the easily accessible spots with the best views. blue pool in oregon was empty when i was in school, and now it's just a sea of flesh. trailrunning is great, because you can can blow past the day hiking distance into solitude or still have a good time on a trail that doesn't have the AAA views.

Houthi’s are drone striking merchant shipping in the Red Sea. Apparently they hit three bulk carriers . https://apnews.com/article/red-sea-houthi-yemen-ships-attack-israel-hamas-war-gaza-strip-716770f0a780160e9abed98d3c48fbde I’ve boarded one of these three in the past.

I'm sure it's way worse out there, but around here I've just started going to anywhere remotely popular in the winter now. Everything looks like garbage, but there are no people and even better no bugs.

Twerk from Home posted:Housing wealth isn't real lmao. Car "wealth" is particularly bad because it actively makes you poorer. The more expensive it is to replace your car, the more money you need to spend to ensure that it lasts as long as possible, and the worst off you'll be when you finally can't keep up any more and need to buy a more expensive, newer model. Your old shitbox is worth a ton of money right up until the moment it suffers a major failure and its value effectively goes to zero. The only way to avoid that fate is to sell first and commit to an even larger monthly payment.

Everytime we get hit with one of those it's brutal. It's been poo poo since ~2018. We never used to have a smoke season, but now? I loving laughed about NYC freaking the gently caress out about air quality earlier this summer. What they got was nothing compared to what we've been getting here (in intensity, duration, or both) since we started getting wildfire smoke in the fall. Now, every fall, we get weeks (or, like last year, a loving month and a half) solid of 100+ AQI, sometimes spiking up above 500 if things actually get bad. We don't need more warm, dry weather. We need more cool, damp weather, but it's going away thanks to climate change.

Q1) They are using average wages, not median. If rich people's salaries are going up then it would raise the average which is why median is more commonly used. Q2) ~Rate of~ inflation. Q3) "Net worth" here probably includes people's houses and cars which are being heavily impacted by inflation right now. Q4) How exactly are we defining "A better lifestyle" here? Q5) See Q4

This sandwich was $9 and with a latte, the bill was $18 (not my picture). This is why native PNWers are fed up and hate this place now. The influx of tech has ruined a good thing, not made it better. https://www.reddit.com/media?url=ht...807fb8827d0fa21

Looks like a preform scrambled egg from a silicone mold. They made them like that at a place I used to work at and they were easily the worst egg sandwiches I've ever had in my life.

https://twitter.com/VideoCardz/status/1731603583257240027 context: the US keeps issuing export bans of GPUs to China and NVidia keeps rushing orders to sell as much product as they can before the next ban-wave takes effect, and then designs chips and cards specifically to skirt underneath the benchmarks set by the bans. The most recent example is that with RTX 4090 being banned from export to China, NVidia is now preparing an "RTX 4090D" with its computing power configured to hit the threshold of the ban just precisely enough to be allowable.
