Android & IOS have an emergency alert system that the government can use if they want to.

You certainly can, with proper carbon emissions taxation. But you can't stop said people from voting for parties that advocate unrealistic pipe-dream technological solutions like poop jets and full-scale CCS, rather than parties who make them take the red pill and face reality and the consequences of their actions.

He looks like he's trying to scam us of our internet points by making a face.

Ok it sounds like what you experienced was caused by something completely different than detecting an audible difference between Spotify's 320 kbps AAC encoding and lossless encoding, encoded over a 256 kbps AAC BT codec, but if you actually want to do a true A/B blind test of 320 kbps vs. lossless on your setup, here's the place to do it:

Do you realize AirPods Max/iPhone is capped at AAC/256 kbps over BT, and needs DAC -> ADC -> DAC to use a wired connection?

It's ironic to watch the self-delusions unfold in countries that have working multi-party voting systems, and a dedicated green party. In self-interest/status quo preservation, voters avoid them like the plague because "they are too extreme", and rather vote for some other party that puts up a fake eco-friendly front based on some technological pipe dream & shoveling off responsibilities to other countries.

Previous election in Norway (late 2021), the green party were the only ones who went to election with a pledge to stop search&test drilling for new oil fields (extraction from the currently running & newly prospected oil fields will run well into the 2050's)- they got below 4% of the votes, and no other party wanted to include them in negotiations for forming a government, because they were "too extreme".

Today, the foreign minister of the government lead the Dubai climate negotiations and pretended to be disappointed that other countries blocked the term "end our dependency on fossil fuel", and that they had to compromise for something vaguer like "start the transition away from fossil fuel" or something like that...

It's common for the people who vote these stooges into office to say stuff like "the politicians aren't doing enough to combat the climate crisis". The hypocrisy lies thick in the air.

So what you're saying is that if she shits her diapers in the game, it's ok? Weird kink, but w/e floats your boat, I guess...
