So, capitalism? If you don’t participate you’re screwed (tortured via poverty). So you have to work on the system: working for money, buying from companies (advancing the system), continuing the trend to make poor people suffer.
Of course the only difference is ignorance of capitalism doesn’t make you safe from it. Although you can argue that societies that don’t know about capitalism (at all, so no money) have no poverty.
As long as you have a driveway or garage, yes. Which a lot of people (most?) don’t have.
Oh humans will survive, no problem. I mean, not a lot of them and not happily, and there will probably be a nuclear war at the end there, but humans won’t go extinct. We’re too smart to not find a nice hole to hide in.
That is called perspective.
Nature will survive, this specific bird species perhaps not.
Iew, using the word normies seriously makes you sound like an incel.
I don’t know which company I would trust developing my brain implant, but it sure as hell isn’t Tesla. Their software and hardware history is less than stellar.
At the end of the street I went left instead of my usual right, my cat was going crazy meowing so loud and urgent.
No human, you will get lost!
God, the US is turning into such a fucking shithole. Good luck with your theocracy and successive fascist government, people.
I wonder if you can simply this by using a monochromatic IR (or UV) source instead of sodium vapor lamps and just filter out those light frequencies in software.
Unless he was in Australia, then that damn fat Earth was in the way.
That’s one long nose
The fatality rate of avian influenza is about 55%, so a bit more deadly than corona (about 3%).
That was what Three Body Problem was for me, cool idea but the writing wasn’t very good.
But I don’t really like Chinese TV either, they have some weird story conventions that I just don’t get. Characters suddenly behave like best friends even though they just met, others are suddenly introduced without context, no one is a stranger so everyone knows everyone and randomly meet each other in the streets (how likely is that in Beijing…), people kinda teleport to other locations instead of showing the journey, things like that.
My favorite hypothesis is we just didn’t invent something akin to subspace radio yet. It’s like thinking your little remote island is the only populated one because noone responds to your smoke signals, while the rest of the world uses radio.
Probably until I get sick or die of old age.
I’ll probably do things like ransack my local library for book like the SAS handbook, plant identification, etc to bring with me, hijack a truck that’s already ready to go, load all useful stuff including a small backup car/motorbike and head for the sub-tropics somewhere to a forest next to a city.
Value wise it’s not very good: you could have made the sauces yourself, slice your own cheese, cut your own broccoli, make your own muffins if you really want to save, make your own mac and cheese, etc. Would save you probably 50%.
Boiling your own beets takes so fucking long, I had no idea. 4 hours on the stove for a simple beet. No thanks, I’ll just buy them in a jar.
What the fuck is this bullshit article? China gives subsidies for green tech? GOOD! And then they want the EU to stop is? See, this is why we can’t have nice things. When we lay parched on our barren sun baked fields this is who we can thank.
