Idk if that is a stupid idea, but can one host a community that does not allow posting of images and links?
Base idea behind that would be: Text conversations are easier to search and assess quality and topic of.
Here on Lemmy I see many accounts that post links most of the times, no text conversations or in depth conversations. That is why many Lemmy "subs / instances " seems like an oppionated link aggregator atm.
ok … now buy the next oversized SUV to drive your child to school, like every other parent.
ironic that the Milwaukee Railroad was electrified between 1914 and 1920 over 1000 km https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milwaukee_Road … and then it ended 1974… seems they did not like the efficiency and 1 Million $ savings each year and got bankrupted by neglecting maintenance in favor of short term profit, before going bankrupt. Then abandoned the rail line in favor of a “green” hiking trail and diesel Locks/Trucks on parallel lines/highways.

seems like we are f*****
Imagine every marketplace and port was connected to warehouses via rail tracks … imagine the efficiency … oh no that was 100 years ago, nowadays road with potholes only.
I would also imagine a computer algorithm could manage all the signaling and switches … the dream of driver-less trains is way more feasible than driverless trucks (Big Tech and Car Lobby are lobbying hard for this), since a train can only go forwards or backwards on a given track.
What about Chinese demographics that are often brought up by US-centric-Planners? China is the fastest aging country on the planet?

Nuclear powered electric construction machines?
