It means the person you are replying to is a troll or a moron. Or both.

It's keeping the chlorine gas in, obviously.

Wasteland 3 and Stargate SG1.

SG1 versus the payasos would be a fun episode.

Not necessarily. With some forms od tracking being curbed, just being sent the who accesses which webpage on what device when (the bare minimum for attestation) has lots of value. And google won't stop at the bare minimum of data grabbing, of course.

You know what would really help? Not showing a nice happy vacation beach image with that headline. How about some dead fish, people sweating while doing manual laboue or bleached corals? For fucks sake.

(I know NBC doesn't read Lemmy, just frustrated)

This has to be false. If only 'er' remained, the 'Twitt' would have been removed. But the twit is still in charge.

X.de (German TLD) is even for sale right now and they still didn't grab it.

Not guaranteed, but it might help you turn a 44 billion dollar company into a billion dollar company.

They haven't even secured x on some big TLDs, their design process is not the only issue.

In q wq all this is distracting, because there are many, many people who cling to thinking that just doing this or that is already enough. That's why I call this focus on individual lifestyle choices dangerous. It gives you a psychological out. "I've done something, so the problem is out if my hands now," is a form of complacency I see quite often.

Saying there are countless issues is another one of those convenient distractions. Of course its complex and there are many factors, but we have one basic issue: greenhouse gases.

We will not get to carbon neutral(or a global net negative) by slowly getting used to things by word of mouth. Not by signalling through market forces that we are willing to pay for pea protein instead of meat. It has to be political, it has to decisive and radical action at this point. A carbon tax that makes meat much more expensive instead of being subsidized. Completely changing the funding of transportation from being car focused to public transportation focused. And, perhaps most important of all, government oversight and enforcement with teeth that does not shy away from nuking a company with fines if it steps out of line too often.

All these what YOU can do talk carries the danger of obscuring what needs to be done at a societal and global level.
