The headline says worlds first all-electric train rather than worlds first all-battery-powered train. There have been many all-electric trains before. So the headline as written is incorrect.

That depends on your client. Connect for lemmy shows a placeholder for comments from blocked instances. You can click to show the comment anyway or just blissfully ignore the high probability rage bait.

I actually like that implementation, because the obnoxiousness of hexbear users is context dependent. On posts about gardening and nolawns I'll usually see what they have to say. On political posts, I usually regret reading their comments. So it's somewhat nice to opt-in to comments on a case by case basis.

Oh so like how you stock up on gas when there's a shortage.

In a similar vein, I prefer celery leaves over the stalks. They have a better flavor imo and they don't feel like your chewing on stringy water.

Is this peanut butter in little jars, big jars, bags, or just shoveled in like one giant trunk tub of creamy peanut butter?

It can't help that so much of our food is packaged in plastic to keep water in or out.

It's a fairly common mild allergy. I guess I shouldn't have stated that like it is expected for everyone.

It would be nice for car keys and other remotes to never run out of battery. This seems like a good convenience technology, assuming it can be brought to market at comparable prices to li ion cells.
