If I have to have microplastics in my balls, then the fish do too dammit!

Probably technically, but I can almost guarantee you they quite literally couldn’t care less about two brothers sharing an account. They’re more worried about large groups sharing an account.

It’s something people don’t realize. We may be a scourge on the Earth, but we’re still nowhere even near the top of the list of worst things to happen to this planet.

As the other reply brought up, Theia crashing into Earth. Flood basalt events. The Chicxulub impact.

We may be able to cause some real awful shit, but we still are nothing compared to what the forces of nature can produce. And just to clarify, I’m not saying this to in any way downplay the seriousness of climate change, or that we should do nothing about it.

The answer to the ruthless indiscriminate killing of civilians is not more ruthless indiscriminate killing of civilians

Stares at most PDX games having increasing player counts

How much of this is the lack of people wanting to play strategy games vs the lack of good strategy games

Ones here in the states vary a lot from place to place. Some places have absolutely everything, books, movies, games, tools, makerspaces (or at least 3d printers), computers etc.

But most city libraries outside if your big big ones are still relatively small. My local one is about the size of a small grocery store, real modest. Damn do the workers there pour their hearts and souls into it though, they’re always hosting events and stuff. Really appreciate our library workers. Main benefit is getting access to their network, which generally gets you a whole host of other stuff. Ebook rentals, audio book rentals, book transfers, etc.

It’s a shame what the GoP is trying to do to the American library system.

Everyone in general

Emulation when I was younger (and to a lesser extent now. I own the vast majority of old consoles/games I have any interest in playing these days). These days it’s near exclusively TV/Movies and pretty much entirely because of convenience. Between myself and the others in my household, we have near every streaming service, I just can’t be fucked to figure out which one what I want to watch is on.

I really need to get around to turning my old pc into a media server.

Car bad, train good

I fucking hate stroads

Russia could’ve, y’know, just not done an illegal invasion of Ukraine.

While true, the general cultural preference for larger vehicles will inherently carryover to when people are deciding what EV to buy.

There’s plenty of tech from my younger days that was fun then that I wouldn’t find fun now. An original iPod is not one of those.

Sure, if you use it for an hour a day, you’re not gonna notice it much. And I’m not disagreeing that a lot of the software sorely needs to be improved. The people who are going to notice aren’t you. They’re the ones using their devices all day for work or similar.

Hoping they have success, but to say that their laptop chips are truly mainstream, at least in the same sense that Apple gives, is a bit generous I feel.

Obviously the X series has a decent shot at changing that, which I really hope it does.

I like keeping tabs on it, as they’re really the only ones pushing mainstream high end ARM chips at the moment.

The primary benefit for the average consumer tends to be longer battery life due to the same task using less power, in theory anyway.

I’m assuming it’s unnecessary and out of place sarcasm

Right? I remember being absolutely mind blown away by a 2gb SD card. Nowadays I pickup a 32gb microSD for $3 every time I got to Micro Center

Hey we’re actually ahead of the EU in something!

Already happens in a very round a bout tangential way. At least in America, most homes have far more heating capacity than they will ever actually use.
