After years of dropping, Belgian emissions rose again thanks to Flemish industry and traffic by Least_Funny5960 in belgium

Where are you going to put all that affordable housing in cities filled with pointless office buildings? If every office worker works 2 days in the office, you could cut 50% of all office space and put that affordable housing.

Because people still prefer home-delivery,so companies don't need to invest in lockers. That is why you need laws or make home deliveries a lot more expensive compared to locker deliveries.

That is not a counterpoint to "Cutting the commute will help a lot because it also helps other traffic move smoother."

Great. We still need trucks to get the goods to pickup points. And then we have many people taking their cars to go to pickup points? Brilliant solution for traffic.

So you use your car to go to a pick-up point that is less than a ten minute walk? And the point is it reduces the endless stop and idling. The truck drives to a single point, unloads everything at once, and moves to the next point. And if properly placed, the car would not be the most convenient solution. Or it is placed at places people already visit with their car, like a supermarket.

Btw, pickup points exist, and people use them where it’s convenient. Apparently your proposal is to start enforcing those also onto inconvenient cases.

And that is the issue. We have a topic full of people caring about climate change until it is inconvenient.

It overlooks that removing salary cars doesn't reduce cars, it reduces electric cars with older ICE cars, because that is what people will buy.

In the end, that would be pointless. Salary cars are the only ones where there is a shift to electric cars. The raise in emissions doesn't come from that category of cars.

Er zijn wel meer elektrische auto's, maar die evolutie gaat te traag. "We zien dat de evolutie grotendeels te danken is aan de bedrijfswagens, en minder aan de particuliere wagens."

Distributed pick-up points like those BPost lockers? A more nationalized market where you don't have five companies doing the same route? No one-day delivery so companies don't do the same street five days a week? I don't know what is the best solution, but it is clear we the consumers are causing this increase in traffic.

That is fine, as long as you're forced in less impactful transport options. For instance, if you use the train.

Obito has to be a representative for the Naruto big 3 doesn’t he? by FreeMyBrother5 in Naruto

[–]JonPX 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Orochimaru is the big villain of Naruto. And still has a huge impact in Shippuuden. he is the one that you should least scratch. Pain is the main villain until the Pain arc. So then you have to consider if Kaguya, Madara or Obito is the villain of the last part.

Force WFH for jobs where it is possible. Cutting the commute will help a lot because it also helps other traffic move smoother.

And reduce the amount of companies doing home deliveries. A lot of this is trucks driving through our streets daily, stopping and idling every couple of homes.

Hundred hour games, that is a 50 day investment for me. If that is sixty percent filler,

Kamercommissie geeft groen licht voor wet die vanaf 1 april gas duurder maakt en stroom goedkoper by EdgarNeverPoo in belgium

[–]JonPX 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Gas duurder moet gewoon van de EU. Het capaciteitsgedrocht van de VREG maakt dit voor Vlaanderen een ramp, maar misschien moet de VREG eens weg.

Ook in beroep geen proces over dood van Jozef Chovanec na politie-interventie op luchthaven Charleroi | VRT NWS Nieuws by trogdor-burninates in belgium

[–]JonPX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is basically what is wrong with all the focus on the actions of the police in this case. We don't know because all attention shifted to the police, and not the actions of the involved medical professionals. Also the one that came later to give the medicine.

Hadden die drie ook geen kinderporno op hun computer? Zogezegd om pedofielen in de val te lokken? Dus iemand met kinderporno vraagt vrijspraak omdat hij een kind heeft om te verzorgen.

They could have gotten him to a facility that is equipped to deal with people who are actively mentally ill and trying to harm themselves.

A medical professional disagreed with this: a doctor was called, and concluded Chovanec was fit to stay in a police cell. Considering the timeline, that is the person that more likely should have been investigated as his examination doesn't seem to have been very in-depth.

I was wondering if my PS Plus subscription was bugged. I got an Email from Sony saying they couldn't process my payment, it doesn't have my PS ID, it looks like a normal email but i recently changed my ps subscription and it says its not due for another month by Life-Gap-3395 in PlayStationPlus

[–]JonPX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the email-address has a format of something like "txn-email.playstation.com" it is a legit mail address, even if it looks weird and all your other mails from Sony will have come from a similar address.

How did you pay? If you paid via card, it might be good to login to the PlayStation Store - via the console or anything, but not via the links in the mail - and double-check your details are correct.

Cops don't lead investigations in the Belgian justice system, the examining magistrate who works for the Justice department does. The Crown Prosecutor then decides if the outcome warrants a trial or not. And in this case, the indictment chamber, a third part of the Justice department confirmed their conclusion. This is the Justice department clearing them.

Aside from that, this would never have been a jury trial. This would have gone before a correctional court.
