Yeah I mean people are so angry (rightfully) that they want to drop money and move into bartering or want to upend the entire economic system, but the solution is much more simpler than that, which is to just hold people accountable (especially corporations and their executives) for their misdeeds. Unfortunately, although this is simple, it seems to be exceedingly difficult to put into practice.

We do still get information from Russian sources that are reliable. There are many news outlets that are anti-war/anti-Putin who put out a lot of good information. We don’t NEED to physically be there. Of course there are many pros to having someone there but does it outweigh the cons? Let’s see who they release for the American. Doubt it’ll be favorable in terms of ‘value’

Why not have cell stock refreshed now and then so we aren't dependent on a single cell lineage forever? However long a stock cycle may be, we can develop processes that periodically draw fresh cell sources from animals. It's not like farm animals are simply going to disapear, but ideally we can reduce the vast number of farm animals necessary to sustain our planet's food needs.

> So what they should do with their t-54 if it still works, just utilize? I think its pretty good for researching and baiting ammos, when ammos is in deficit and costs some money.

makes perfect sense... so long as the T-54s are in "like new" working order and dont need effort to get running AND you dont value those inside the wildly obsolete steel coffin
