My place of work has a telex machine in the corner still… I presume if a message comes in on that it is because ww3 happened… it just sits there and makes me feel slightly anxious to consider it.

News@lemmy.world•Gasoline costs 50% more in the US than it did before the Iran war
0·1 day agoOh dear, poor USians, higher fuel prices… that’s just as bad as dropping your daughter off at school and then 5 minutes later hearing foreign planes just blew the whole place to shit… so much sympathy.
I’m just happy I bought two electric cars to replace my old ones back in January. Now, for both cars combined, I spend a total £30 on ‘fuel/electric’ a month. Also electric cars are just a million times better in every respect.

I had nearly the same conversation with my 10 year old today about how there is no problem in the world that couldn’t be solved with a giant space laser… stuck in a traffic jam, solution, giant space laser, annoying neighbour giant space laser, it could solve everything.

World News@lemmy.world•European airports are facing a crisis due to fuel shortages. More than 40 flights have already been canceled in ItalyEnglish
0·1 month agoWell this is the upside of the war. Transport causes pollution so less transport is better for the planet. Similarly most human economic activity is bad for the environment. I think we could do to have a lot less of it. It will give us cave to focus on the important stuff, food, clean water and reading books at home by candlelight on an evening.

Also I’m in the UK, visited the next town over last week and walked past a pub and thought, that looks like a pretty old building… turns out the pub was built and has been running as a pub since the 1500s
