I support their ethos but also can't justify the purchase.

Yup, second organism to cause a mass extinction but the first to self proclaim it's intelligent.

What type of gaming? Me over here retro gaming for free for the most part.

In famine hoarding is common.

I still think policies should be tested to see if they optimize HDI, GDPPP, and environmental impact. Of course in the case of free higher education it's a pretty easy one to guess the answer to.

A drug is any chemical substance that alters the way your mind or body functions. This broad definition includes everyday items like caffeine and prescription medications, as well as over-the-counter remedies and illegal substances. Alcohol is a drug.

Just started playing jet force Gemini the other day. I wasn't crazy as a kid, the targeting system is indeed awful.

Yeah legalizing less harmful drugs will definitely help. Unfortunately a lot of the world is still fully under the influence of 1960's propaganda.

There's been a 73% decline in global vertebrate populations since 1970. We're in the beginning of a very serious mass extinction and it's kinda like we don't care which is interesting.

Alcohol is a drug that causes harm, more harm than most illegal substances. Alcohol is ranked between heroin and cocaine. Link

Although this UK study has it ranked above heroine and cocaine Link

Of course it being legal and available is a contributing factor, but there's just better substances we could choose to make the chosen legal recreational drug for society.

Is it Swinyard, Swinerd, Hogg, Hogge, Seward, Sweatman, Schweinhardt, Schweiger, Schweinsteige, Dausch, Purcell, or MacUalraig? Apparently there's a lot of surnames for a pig farmer.

Yes I'm aware of his story. The Canadian company named themselves such because they were stealing Tesla's (Elon musk's company) idea for the electric semi namely because they never delivered and the guy really wanted one so figured he may as well make one himself. They seem like a pretty decent company, although very small.

Not much of a turnaround on plastic, but worth a shot I guess.

I thought /s meant small peen.

Is your issue with the man or the company? I actually don't know much about Edison trucks beyond that they exist.

If it's a free service it's definitely not in your favor. If it's a paid service, still most likely not in your favor.

I always remember that case where someone got injured at Disneyland and part of their Disney plus subscription is an agreement they can't sue Disney.

Definitely more fucked than I remembered.

The only way to control people's behavior is to change the real world cost. Want to decrease consumption of high resource and CO2 foods? Stop externalizing their cost. Want to decrease people's AI usage? Stop externalizing costs. Want to encourage people to switch to lower CO2 transport? Stop externalizing costs. Want to encourage upcycling and decrease waste? Stop externalizing costs. Want companies in any business to decrease their ecological impact? Stop externalizing costs. If we actually charged what things cost then any market would naturally correct itself. If we just globally charged what things actually cost then that would about solve the situation almost overnight.

I have a friend whose surname is Fletcher. I learned recently that's just an arrow maker. That said I've seen in other regions people are named for what time and location they are born and by gender.

You know what kills a lot of people? A collapse of the biosphere.
