Honestly, it feels more sinister. Sure, they say they want to eliminate this privacy tool because children could use it to watch porn, but realistically they’re not a fan of anybody using a VPN.

Yeah, for sure. A lack of talented people is definitely not the limiting factor here. The Nissan Leaf DIY community is doing awesome things, for instance.

Yep, there is that, no way around it

I’m not from the US, but I’m pretty sure that’s just for shooting up schools and raiding non-existent pedo dungeons underneath pizza parlors.

Nothing dickish about making your point, that’s what we’re here for.

I agree that we need effective measures, in terms of combatting climate change there are few things that are more efficient than eliminating animal agriculture. For there to even be a long term, at all, drastic measures are needed in the short term.

But at this point, it feels like LARPing to bother thinking about, climate change. Not a lot of room for the issue in the flooded zone.

Not really going to happen, I think, battery warranties make up really big parts of EVs market value. You don’t want to do anything that could risk that.

Hehe yeah, I think tofu is sooo good though! :P

“We need to eat” rhymes poorly with climate wrecking animal farming, which not only speeds up harvest devastating warming and flooding – it also consumes a lot of food and uses enormous amounts of farmable land.

Poor people are not in any way immune to the apocalypse and will have to change their lifestyles one way or the other.

You’re championing dying with a belly full of cheeseburgers over tofu and a shot at long term survival. It’s not progressive.

Before, he’d have to explain that “well, formally, I’m not a doctor”.

Mr. Picture Perfect Elite White Male, that will surely show them anti-establishment folks that the big profane orange billionaire isn’t the only game in town

The act of reading highly factual, if biased and not independent, still cultivates thinking for one self. Listening to these influencers doesn’t, to the same degree.

Moot, these are just sub-variants of the Swedish language.

There should be a modern version of this. Imagine the president having his own platform where he could write messages to the world, just like your uncle doese on Facebook! It would be so good!

I think it bears considering that the farmers’ work was directly connected to their own survival and welfare. They didn’t have to sit through meetings on the Company’s new ”values” or do telemarketing for pump and dump AI or crypto scams, while the world burns.

They may have had it harder, but many of the most sadistic forms of existential anguish, and lack of meaning, had yet to be invented.
