Wait until you see the Confederate flags in PA. Ya know, where the battle of Gettysburg happened. Very much not a southern state. It's wild seeing this shit in my neighborhood.

What a shitty clickbait title. Makes it sound like this is a bad thing, even though the article doesn't paint it in that way. I'm sure people who only read the title will stir up a bit of outrage over nothing.

Before anyone says it, I know the title is the same as the article. I'm aiming my criticism at that, not the post.

To be clear, this is talking about reducing an individual's carbon footprint... a drop in the bucket compared to big industry. They also mention re configuring offices to use more shared spaces and occupy less space overall by sharing office space and resources by rotating workers use of the same resources instead of having individual spaces for everyone. That apparently is about a 23% decrease for the office carbon footprint. None of this is about the total greenhouse emissions of the country like the headline sort of vaguely implies. It also requires major logistical changes that, while hopeful to think would happen, I suspect companies aren't going to do as it requires serious restructuring of how they operate.

Now, I'm not saying that we shouldn't try things that aren't the perfect solution. I am just pointing out how this is just another idea that ignores the real problem. Just another thing making it seems like individuals are the problem.

I also want to be clear that I'm not against working from home.

The telemetry and ads baked into windows. I'm so sick of ads creeping into every corner of my life

Because the democrats eat them instead /s

I wish I didn't have to put a stupid /s, but the things people believe now are wild

If you read the page linked, it tells you

Any sheltered place where they can perch

I'm not in a position to look into it right now, but is there a part of the EULA that gives consent to detect ad blockers, and would that be good enough for the law referenced?

In this case, if he did get in line and when he was in front of the line, would it be acceptable for him to use the women's stall if the men's was occupied? I suspect that would not go without objection, but I could be assuming wrong. That would be pretty unfair if they were using the men's.

Norway is mixed market capitalist, like most developed countries. They do have a strong welfare system, though. I'd imagine it's similar in the other countries in the list you mention too, but I'd have to see what they are.

I pretty much agree, but I really wish we could move away from ads being literally everywhere in our lives. I'd rather them just charge a little bit more and have a better experience. It's probably falling on deaf ears, though, because nobody ever wants to pay for anything on the internet.

While I agree that there is a lack of education around it, the real solution is regulating emissions from industry and providing businesses monetary incentive to improve

what does this have to do with fascism? that word has lost all meaning

Couldn't you put a little salt or something in it to make sure it has a nucleation point to start boiling

I got an uncomfortable cooling sensation that couldn't be wiped off. It made the headache worse.

Magic Ring Imaging

The Magicians. It's like a more mature and dark Harry Potter/Chronicles of Narnia crossover. It has really good character development and isn't afraid to have fun with things like musical numbers and self aware plotlines. The first season is the weakest of the bunch, but it's still pretty good. So give it a chance past then if you are still on the fence.

You sound almost as vile as the rapists

I'm not a gun expert, but I presume it's because pistols are mostly reciever, which is the core part of guns that houses the trigger and firing mechanism. It has a pretty similar shape among a lot of firearms. Someone more knowledgeable could correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm pretty sure they mean The Magicians by Lev Grossman
