Hour for hour, there’s no better way to warm the planet than to fly in a plane.

I have young genZ coworkers who get a box of McDds fries delivered on a whim... and its $10... i do not understand.. i'm such an old boomer

my gf's gen z-son and his gf order a fries and a sundae each regularly from McD via Ubereats here in Aus. I am "but wot now" to myself. I don't see them often but my gf does and she tells me its a bi weekly thing

I am old (Gen x) i don't understand.

Indeed, its why Australia's main conservative party (middle right) are called The Liberals

Nice!

I want to get the 13 Pro (I think), anyone have tips on a dock ? i want to use it as my only PC and want to dock at home.

There's one recurring theme and unifying driver for everything the right does, and everything that's wrong with society. Empathetic impairment.

They even export this shit, the current US Ambassador to the UK has suggested the UK spend less on healthcare and other social services and more on defence. This isn't even a spend less point he's making, spend the same or more bit less on helping people ffs.

Why is the shitstain even giving budgetry advice to the UK?

well done Ukraine

and make it worse. That reaction is literally called Implacactory Denial

Much research has focused on how we intellectually distance ourselves from the unpleasant realities happening around us. What requires greater attention is how we may engage in climate denial by seeking out spaces of sensory comfort and using them to shield ourselves as the world unravels outside our window.

Denial, thought of in this way, is entirely sensible. My colleagues and I asked residents around the Western Sydney suburb of Penrith – famously the hottest place on Earth during the Black Summer of 2019-20 – about their experiences during heatwave conditions. Unsurprisingly, sensory denial is central to how they cope with extremes – primarily by using air conditioning.

It's really hard for me to wrap my head around why it's so easy for certain extremely online guys to hate women so much and so easily

same reasons people hate on immigrants etc

easy to blame others for your own inadequacies. Many years ago I spent a little time in /r/mgtow and was eventually banned. I'd sub'd in good faith and naively assumeed it was about betterment, and while their was a little of that, mostly jist blaming women.

no healthcare iniatives I see

same same Indonesia

Russia, Turkey, most African nations, the middle east nations etc etc

why ? is it illegal ? what standings could they possibly have ?

maybe, to replace my ageing Minisforum mini computer

i had thought of the Framework Desktop but was waiting to see what the Steam Machine brought to the table.

How can a US president betray "Israelis". He's not their president,

sure but not to defend the shit stain, he represents the nation, so if another nation states an "ally", say Canada...or Denmark or Ukraine or...

an allegory, you're married, doesnt mean you can't betray a friend, perhaps not as deeply as your partner but still.

Im an Australian, our previous governemnt betrayed the French for example

i looked at moving there in the late 1990s, lived there for a year. After some time I realised I'd bought into the propaganda about this US being the greatest country on earth. I have never been back. After 9/11 they really jumped the shark.

none of this is new though

I'll tell you what's at the bottom of it. If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you. -Lyndon B. Johnson

Trump's just adopted that mantra

They went to the same schools we did, watched the same media, yet they need religion for empathy, you think theyd be tolerable at all without it? People would be acting like the crossed.

Christopher Hitchens did a thing on that exact thing. How is it you can't have any morals sans a sky daddy?

I do hear the argument often and it's quite depressing.

It's not like they are voting en masse for Reform.

no, only the stupid ones

he's wealthy and white, he's not having problems.
