When there’s snow on the ground, drive like you have an open cup of coffee in your lap. Turn, brake, or accelerate too hard and you spill steaming hot coffee on your bits. Winter tires will help a lot, but drive like you don’t have them.

This shit right here is why ancient Vampire Investment Bankers are so insufferable.

And what if you had an app on your phone that let you just take a picture of the question, and write out the answer it gave you? A calculator still requires that you know what to input, and at the level of math where a calculator really is just easy mode, it absolutely would specifically prohibit them.

They’re banking on their service still being better. In the short term they assume their particular selection of content will provide some inertia to your decision to move, and long term they expect all of the other options are going to do the same thing. Eventually, you’ll only be able to stream with commercials, and they’ll be back to the balance of their content being the only deciding factor.

It seems pretty clear that if he can’t have it, he’ll do his best to make sure nobody else can either.

And they’re done now right? Mission accomplished, bombings and airstrikes concluded, time to go home? Right guys? Guys?

The chief difference between here, and Reddit, is that there is no accumulated tally of votes here. Someone can “karma farm” all they want here, and they will have exactly nothing to show for it. Their account doesn’t have a number going up, there is no final score that marks them out as any kind of special.

Adding any kind of system to denote “consistent positive contribution” as you mentioned, or any kind of actually accumulated score, regardless of rolling delay, would only provide incentive for “karma farming” that does not currently exist.

Your proposed solutions would create the problem you’re trying to solve, a problem which does not currently exist.

I hope they all agree and go in one big wave, because otherwise stories of the early adopters being conscripted to die in Ukraine might dissuade the rest of them.

Man, literally there to compete in the Olympics, a lifetime level achievement, is it that hard to just keep your shit together for that little while?

Welcome to capitalism. Infinite growth is required, and when a market is well and truly saturated the next step is cutting more and more costs.

Incidentally, Cancer also pursues a similar strategy.

That just means their stakeholders deserve the financial ruin that’s coming to them.

Seriously, it sounds like some “Both Sides” bullshit.

As someone who works nights and gets off work in the early morning, this is legitimately an appreciated service. Just need em to give me a beer without the “drinking at 6am?” look and they’ve got my business.

The question posed was not what the impact would be if this source of oxygen were mined, and thus no longer contributing oxygen. The question was whether or not we could replicate this on the surface as a source of oxygen.

The answer is that it simply is not necessary. We have plenty of oxygen, what we need are means to sink CO2, which electrolysis does not do.

Surely this will make more people take vegans seriously!

no.

I miss the days when I was surprised to hear that Russia probably deliberately blew up a hospital.

Yeah I’m sure that’ll… help? Israel is the one dropping airstrikes on refugee camps, what makes anyone think they actually want any aid in Gaza at all?

“Escort back to China” sure is a weird way of saying they kidnapped her.

No, I’m sorry, that’s not the conclusion the industry paid for, now your kneecaps are forfeit.
