Man that headline is one beautiful bud of a pushing, expanding blossom of a choked metaphor. (tldr, so far)

Ignoring this fact helps humans feel better about consuming animal products.

True but not relevant here.

So, they didn’t exactly lie here but…

Solitaire Collection is the same story. I uninstalled that thing after first run. Ass hats.

It’s actually a bit more complicated than that:

• Mozilla centrally signs every add-on—but the add-ons in question are still signed by Mozilla
• Mozilla runs a centralized distribution platform but you can self-host your add-on if you want and you have the option to use a custom update URL—the add-ons in question are still hosted by Mozilla, however, they are geo-blocked in the country that counts

Well, look at that face. Feel his virility. Could you resist?

Stolen iPhones are locked into a specific Apple account and they tell you the name of that Apple account on the screen that asks for the password.

You can take that account name and simply iMessage the original owner from another device.

1. I marvel a bit at the 52 GB blob. Don’t you think you could maybe trim back to the past x thousand messages in your chats? Or delete some media?

2. I think tge decision is not because they want to hurt iOS users but because the iOS file system is extremely handicapped and the iOS cloud backup is not e2e-encrypted.

Yeah, when we were young and dumb and didn’t mind chatting without even transport encryption.

“Texas is so deregulated, it’s basically Russia” is an interesting take but I approve.

I hate Twitter so much. Unless you’re logged in, you can’t even read threads anymore (unless you happen to know each individual tweet URL).

What I meant to say: Is there another source?

Why bother with bribes if he’d do it for free anyway?

to avoid any further misunderstandings

Ah yes. The misunderstanding they are talking about is that content posted on internet platforms still belongs to the author in any way, I guess.

Granted, SO has always used wiki comments and CC licenses. They were upfront about it, mostly.

So you’ve got basically all the figures to plot exponential growth but you assume linearity?

Thank you for posting this stringent explanation of the madness going on here.

Nobody trusts those efforts. They exist because politicians felt they had to do something and lobbyists told them this was something and so it was done.

(Electrifying transport on land will go a long way towards reducing oil use though.)

Seems like there’s some conflicting information in the article with the World Bank guy at the end contradicting the Texas regulator from earlier concerning the impact of enclosed flares.

Pretty good conversation! And you’re right, his mentioning that 40% of ships simply transport fossil fuels was kind of a revelation.

I also found the bit about financing in the developing world interesting.

One aspect where he came really short though was “agriculture? Oh yeah, I haven’t looked into that”. Then going on about ruminants. Actually, it’s the same thing as with primary energy — much like the demand is for lighting rather than coal, there is demand for healthy food rather than for animal parts.

The article is about New York City’s pizza, not New York City Pizza. If your “local Italian restaurant” is in NYC, they will need to switch to electric too.
