Gas oil in english would imply diesel.

So are you telling me it’s like the wedding tax but for firetruck?

Oh open your markets, let us sell our products in your country, but no intellectual transfers, give us cheap labour but we won’t give you better farming technologies, you can lease those technologies, pay heavy royalties, we will sell you defense equipment, but we won’t teach you how to service them, we will charge you exorbitant fees to maintain your defense equipment.

We are trying to be your friend, why won’t you be my friend?

Or about Xinjiang and it’s uyger people

I think I’ve started to just outright ignore comments from big servers, trolls everywhere

Choosing the right level of income is the key for UBI to work, it has to be enough to live and survive but not so much that a recipient can enjoy luxury. Most people like to contribute to society, being is social is how humans are so dominant as a species.

Most people will contribute to the economy if they can, because it supports ambition, better lifestyle but it doesn’t put pressure to worry about where today’s food is going to be, people take more risks, be more entrepreneurial, explore more curiosity, explore new ideas, people spend time on acquiring more useful skills.

A mentally healthy mind is not entirely lazy. Being lazy perpetually reflects a deeper problem that is psychological to some degree such as having no hope or not being able to Imagine a happy future, or feeling helpless. Mentally healthy people want to contribute to society.

Economy as a whole will expand, which will pay in turn for UBI. First few years of UBI might be heavier on tax payers of the old system, but in long term UBI will lead to better economy. Question is not who is going to pay for it, question is can people agree to pay more out of their own pocket now for a better future for everyone? OR are we doomed as a species by exploiting our own kind?

What near future? Redmagic 10 pro has a very decent underscren camera that you can buy now. Only reason stupid holes in screen exist now is that mainstream phone makers are still assuming all of their customers absolutely care about taking the best selfies all the time.

And how many percentage of all livestock do you think is “free range” like the cows you describe?

Estimates vary from 80% to 99% are factory farmed. Which means majority of meat anyone is eating is factory farm. Unless you can verify the source of your meat yourself, you most likely are eating tortured animals.

So this whole argument that I have friends and family that care for their livestock like it’s their kids is the misrepresentation since, it maybe true that you know someone that is treating animals humane, it doesn’t represent majority.

I’d nominate Antimine to be added as a minesweeper clone that is FOSS and has beautiful UI. https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.lucanlm.antimine/

Reminds me of a time where I shortened the code for pointers in c++ at age 15, so quite old, and my teacher said it wouldn’t work (we didn’t have computers in that class, next class we would type the code and execute it in computer lab). Anyway I said it’d work, he said it would never work, I said well we can test it next class and teacher said we can’t waste time in computer lab like that, and I said I will ask principal for extratime in computer lab after school to prove that my code works. I got sent to principals office anyway for rude and unruley behavior and not only did I get scolded for trying to embarrass my teacher, I wasn’t granted extra time in the lab either. Next time in lab I managed to write the shorter code and get same results and I called teacher to show my code works, he just unplugged the cable and sent me to principals office again.

Luckily this time they called my parents and my mom unleashed hell on them threatening with talking to press and media and name and shame the teacher and principal for being stupider than a student is when they stopped harassing me.

And I quit paying attention in that class, I got bad marks for low class participation but hey I had already stopped giving fucks at that point.

I think new tab page, but I’ve never seen it written as ntp

I had the perfect roommate, he had night shifts, he’d do 00:00 to 09:00. He would come home around 10:00 and sleep toll 18:00 and then we’d enjoy our evening together. I’d go to bed and he’d go to work. He’d been doing this for 6 years at that point and it suited him fine and he was healthy as a horse.

I think the thing that worked for him was treating even the weekends like weekday and he’d sleep through most of his Saturday/Sunday daylight.

Fossil gas is better term agreed and everyone should switch to using that over natural gas.

But calling fossils unnatural is not right, maybe extraction of fossil gas unnatural sure, but the gas itself, I don’t know rubs me the wrong way.

I don’t know who is downvoting you, but release fast at cost of quality definitely makes the problem worse. Because people keep buying half baked unfinished games.

I remeber reading the real sell to developers is less calculations, currently textures have to be designed for different lightening, which would require pre rendering same textures across multiple lightings. And that is time and resource intensive for developers.

Ray tracing is a simpler solution. I’m not an expert, but that seemed sensible to me.

What do you mean, I have a nick, fake email, fake name and I’m enjoying my free games for years.

No way a bloke on my street named Cody died in car accident at the ripe age of 33. Conspiracy is real. /s

I swear I have seen a comment very similar to this, not word for word, but pretty much similar structure and words and points describing Kanye.

Yeah occupied, but not annexed. I guess when people make these arguments their point is even if it was occupied by a foreign power, foreign power recognized them as separate country.

Commenting because it’s been 5 hours without any.
