Vast majority of petrol is dead pine trees but a good effort
The marketing team realized that society isn’t cool enough to buy enough of them to reliably profit off it.
When we lost the first fight for net neutrality.
It’s a catch 22 because if you already know the seller but are opting for their Amazon vendor e-commerce channel you’re undercutting their business by taking Amazon’s promo discount on shipping today and forcing the seller to make up the difference in vendor fees. Then when your favorite reasonable merchants that balance price and quality get squeezed out of business by cheap knockoffs competing on the same platform in 1-5 years you’ll wonder why you can’t find quality products of that type anymore except from niche boutique merchants who have to charge even more to ship quality to your door than they used to.
Oh thabks for clarifying I guess since the problem hasn’t happened to you in particular its not actually a problem. /s
The part that’s infuriating isn’t the phrase. Its a good phrase when used correctly. It’s annoying that your friend is explicitly hating on your personal opinion after stating they want to respect your difference of opinion.
People have different opinions. One person’s “ew” is a other person’s “oooh.” So never yuck someone else’s yum.
Nah you’re just bad at online shopping.
And you will have no recourse wheb the product you buy is (a) not what you thought you were getting, (b) going to break in a month or two or © set your house on fire if you leave it plugged in.
This is a great question to use because how many of these people have given their smartphone location permissions? Google knows when they speed already.
Not all parasites cause severe food poisoning or make you sick immediately. They depend on your survival for their life cycle. When they make you sick depends on the parasites life cycle. He and Bella both probably could benefit from treatment for parasites.
I’ve found a clever way to counter those folks is to say, “you might be right, and as the apex species it’s our moral obligation to seize control and protect the natural order of things for as long as we are able to slow the coming of hell on earth. Just like our right to shoot guns. Yee haw.”
Mankind is roughly 9 meals between civilization and chaos.
So we basically understand “weather” for roughly 8ppm of earth’s life. That said, we can infer much amount about climate (not weather, climate) from much older archeological and even paleontological evidence.
Will end the current age of civilization? Most definitely.
Will it end organized societies as we know them? Probably?
Will the human beings go extinct? Probably not. Its not crazy to think that we’d face a bottleneck of only a few hundred million humans or less. But there are people all across the economic and geographic spectrum who are prepping. The rich will survive at their polar fortresses. The poorer will survive underground, or at high altitudes.
“Free market” is neither free not cheap.
How many hobbiests running miniature train sets in their garage have monetized those train sets? How many backyard gardeners sell their crops.
In most cases people who choose to develop and administrate an instance of their own are largely just hobbiests of another type. Sure it costs them some money. Many hobbies cost money, it doesn’t stop people from building things or growing things for fun.
To get the full context you’d have to go back through the history of 3rd party apps on reddit which is… a long story spanning years. Part of it is about accessibility and adequate mod tools (which 3rd party apps are built to support / official reddit pretty much doesn’t)
But the point is that this was the final conflict in a long saga for a small but extremely active group of redditors including a huge number of mods. Reddit might not have lost the rest of us if they played the game it cleverly and with some tact.
I was personally pretty comfortable, apathetically doomscrolling the fromt page. But then my attention was directed towards the man behind the curtain. The writing is on the wall with the mod removals, reddit created cryptocurrency, and the sheer number of ads. It was clear I needed to remove myself from that space.
Lemmy isn’t profitable, and doesn’t plan to be. It’s not designed to be a moneymaking enterprise, it’s designed to be an decentralized community running on P2P open source software. If you work in the web development or IT industry full time, you likely have the skills to set up an Instance of your own for little or no cost, even of its just a side hobby on your personal computer.
Yes, in a way this means we are the equivalent one of those massive ‘miniature’ train sets that adult hobbiests play with in their garage.
Its very easy to forget, but theres a difference between the majority of Americans and the majority of American voters… it was more like 15% of the country that voted for him and of that 15% about 60% were white… so it’s more in the range of 5-10 percent of the US population that you’re misrepresenting as a majority sentiment.
IT folken! If corpo borporate boss ever tells you to erase the security footage and/or logs, remember these magic words: “Sure just send the request in writing and I’ll get right on it.”
And maybe backup those logs to a thumbdrive if you feel comfortable with that.
