Good response. What About this and that? It justifies slavery to mine cobalt for your batteries. Bad things happen everywhere so slavery is just fine

Well, not with that attitude.

Those that complain about green energy typically hate those groups too...

Venn diagram of those who wave confederate flags and hate green energy would be pretty telling I imagine

Show me where that's actually a thing in practice?

Cause even in deserts it's highly destructive to the local biome.

Put em on roofs or over parking lots maybe 🤔

Just read up for example the operations of Shell in Nigeria. Blood oil definitely exists as well.

And I sleep a lot better knowing that the cobalt is going to kill a lot fewer people than the oil

Having earned countless doctorate degrees from a number of these prestigious institutions my ivory tower inclination is to retort “Sir you are mistaken!” for no matter your intellectual persuasion I think you’ll agree THEE San Diego State University is not located in South Central LA’s Carson, but, in fact, the fair city of… wait for it… San Diego.

Oh, I see,, how about, "Is this inflation?"

And some things cycle faster and disproportionately due to outside influences (here, human activity), and will be beyond our capacity for large-scale adaptation (see, impacts of rising sea levels and increased natural disasters, etc.)

Figma balls!!

And for basically all consumer electronics. I assume you plan on ditching all your phones, laptops, etc because you care so much about this?

You wouldn't unless Joe Rogan does an episode on it, right

I was waiting for someone to make this contrarian comment. The Staten Island Railway is part of the NYC transit system, you use a metrocard or Omni to ride it, it is the same exact type of train as the subway trains, and it’s included on the official NYC subway map.

When you are an actual New Yorker: NYC is 5 boroughs.

During a twenty-year drought, it might seem that way. The large reservoirs still have room for a lot of water and cracks in the ground, but I am informed that a lot of the smaller ones would chart like that one

Well bhadla is in the middle of a desert so i doubt they would use it for farming or grazing.

Like every 10th thing correctly addressed and sent to my place - where I’ve been for 6-7 years - gets “returned to sender - no such address”. I think there’s one substitute postal worker who sees my apartment number and goes “3X… surely that’s fake”. (Not the real address but close).

For the most part I think postal workers are salt of the earth, - my granny was a letter carrier - but there’s also some real problems in the local PO.

now tie it to chocolate production.

And Japan has more than the US and is completely covered, 😂

They're clearly correlated and not every graph needs to start at y=0.

All things cycle, we just adapt.

How do you only have 15 hrs on smash?
