  • Mass produced food in general really. Upton Sinclair wrote a book about it, The Jungle. Deals with how awful the conditions were both for the workers (largely immigrants) and the end result product. Book was published in 1906. Largely responsible for the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act. But some of the same things still going on.


  • If you get wheels or tires that need a different pressure you have a few options. I have used a sticker in the glove box, open the glove box and put a sticker on the inside of the part that opens. Those temporary name stickers from an office supply store work, just write the info on the sticker with a marker. I would not cover up the factory sticker because you may want to go back to the original setup or sell the car at some later date and keep the aftermarket wheels or sell them separately.


  • I am just learning my way around in the Fediverse but from what I currently understand I agree with you about being able to go elsewhere if you don’t get along with some new neighbors. I do believe that if this thing gets as big as we all hope it does then the financial resources to scale it up have to come from somewhere. Whether that’s a commercial enterprise backing it for potential financial gain, or a loosely connected group of donors, at least in the west and for sure in the US, whoever puts up the money is going to want to call the shots.
