If everyone lived like developed countries we would need even less resources because the birth rate is so low we wouldn’t suffer over population. Also look at how less developed countries dispose of garbage.

Not denying how some developed countries send their trash to developing countries for disposal on the beaches. Fuck them. CEO’s and politicians responsible need the rope.

Railway doesn’t have to be profitable under government funding. The railway is a way to establish profitable businesses surrounding the railway. The profit comes from taxes paid by everyone getting work because of the railway.

Hurricanes are not getting more frequent or violent because of climate change though. They are likely to become more rare with increasing temperature in the northern hemisphere because of even temperatures in the weather systems.

Lex Friedman ep 339 does a good job explaining the difference between more and severe weather and people settling down in huge numbers in already exposed areas.

We had a huge rainfall in Norway last year submerging a lot of properties. People said this was unprecedented and because of climate change. Only issue is that we have historical data on earlier floods, and people had settled down below the markings of earlier floods more than 100 years ago. The issue is not climate change, but regulating properties on a patch of land you know with 100% certainty will get flooded again.

I left Spotify for Tidal. But why would anyone feel obliged for free music from a commercial host? Just self host if you dont want to pay. Piracy is always morally right. It’s preservation of cultural heritage.

I choose to pay for Tidal because of convenience. I refuse to pay for more than 2 streaming services. It’s fairly easy for any adult to make choices like that.

This is an imagined problem and a fairly new one to.

Left handed people having to use tools and appliances designed for right handed people is an actual bigger issue.

I’m lost. Why is the word Fuck sensorer both on image and text? What’s going on? With the sensoring there’s no way to know what’s true and not. Maybe they wrote love Elon. No one knows.

Jfc You’re dumb.

Just how the Black death was great for the working class. The plague didn’t discriminate. So the guilds collapsed and regular people could take up professions exclusive they was locked out of earlier.

Best thing that happened for reform was the black death. Almost as if toppling the social elite is net positive for everyone.

The rich will be the only one to survive how exactly?

Do you have any idea of how much empty space there is available in the northern hemisphere? A huge portion of the planet are inhabitable as it is now. Not because of heat but the opposite. The ocean level rising is neither a new phenomenon. The ocean has raised and fallen multiple times through the existence of our species. The first people who got to UK walked there. And when they settled hippos lived there.

Humans have never lived in a static environment. Most humans aren’t capable of imagining time beyond their own lifetime. Therefore some choose to resign. I guess that’s Darwinism at its finest.

I’m all in with climate change suck. I’m all for dragging the rich out in the street and setting them on fire for fucking everything up. But how some think we live in this static environment that only changed just now, and it will be our end is just wrong.

Can’t wait for Arrakeen rooftop agility courses. Gonna make some mad spice brews with the herblore skill and tend to my palm tree once a day for some mad xp drops.

Humanity wont end because of a rise in temperature. Humanity will change. Believing it’s an extinction level event is the opinion of someone who uses the bible as the timeline of humanity.

Spend a minute on the topic of historical changes in climate and you will see humanity will endure. Change sure, but not gone.

Bad take.

The climate is neither a constant. Therefore it should be allowed to be manipulated freely? We should be allowed to preserve what we find valuable. Dramatic climate change won’t be the end of human life, just human life as we know it. Climate will change, but we shouldn’t affect it freely at our will at a higher pace than natural.

We should also preserve the wonders built by earlier civilizations.

Ye that’s right.

You could have the AR-15 legal as a functioning weapon. But make requirements such as fixed stock and 16" barrel. Such requirements would make the rifle more life a semi automatic hunting rifle instead of a tactical assault weapon.

Here in Norway you can acquire an AR-15 kind of rifle with many modifications. But the requirement is and active membership in dedicated shooting club. There are also requirements for activity in the club. If you want a regular rifle you can take a short course required for all hunters and buy the rifle after applying for a permit to the police.

I think that’s fair as you regulate what kind of weapon people with different interests can have.

The barrel is an essential part for the weapon though.

There’s a great amount of different types of stocks available for modular rifles like an AR-15. Requiring a fixed stock would still allow people to own a gun if they want to. It just makes the gun more annoying to use.

i AI Captain.

Ye no. We lived here for 12000 years mostly in poverty and conflict.

Only the last 60 years have been good. And people want us to get fucked for it.

Only thing holding me back from Kagi is the impossibility of privacy and a credit card associated with my user.

Latest update. You won’t be able to adjust seats, mirrors or steering wheel. Apple knows best how they should be set. Customers are too stupid to do it apparently.

Did Spez trademark “im just a little shit pig” too?

I don’t get it. I go to Instagram a couple of times a day. I start scrolling. The third post is something I haven’t followed or liked. Then the fourth, and the fifth. So I close the app. I spend like 5 minuter there daily. The whole discover page is just filled with trash I have no interest for.

Sure I enjoy climbing. But I don’t care for videos of people tying knots or lightly dressed chicks doing some low grade bouldering. Why does the app think it’s better than me?

You think it was a default option to export avocados from South America to Sweden?

It’s strange believing we can’t live how we lived for thousands of years because we changed our habits the past 300. Explosive human growth is not a necessity for human life. It’s a necessity for capitalism to thrive.
