Also from from the report:

The adoption of COVID-safe practices - for cocaine

We found that overall, people who used cannabis were more likely to report safer use practices (55%) after the onset of the pandemic than people who used cocaine (42%).

Considering country differences in cocaine safer-use practices, the countries with
highest rates of increased frequency of COVID-safe practices were Brazil (59%) and Sweden (58%); while countries reporting the greatest increases in risky cocaine behaviours included Poland (50%) and Romania (44%).

My 3rd deployment in the Navy was 1979 and we got stuck in Japan for 2 1/2 months, so I got a part time job in a local beer bar working 6 to midnight. Every night the place was full of guys still in their suits and ties just getting tore up on red beer (beer & tomato juice) to the point they could hardly walk. Every night, over & over.

And these weren't guys out to have a couple drinks and laugh and joke with their buds. These were guys on a mission. It was, "My life sucks, my job sucks and all I do is work, drink, go home drunk and go back and do it again." It was fugging depressing to watch that poo every night.

Everything I've ever read about Japanese work culture said that it's fuging brutal.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
