The US also needs to rethink the way the electoral college works. Cos those GOP states still have ability to set federal law that apply to all.

I’ve been rather hoping that Cali starts to discuss secede from the union (I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find one the the far right states tried to do it first).

I’m mean, they are better than the non-degradable plastics, but it’s not like they breakdown remotely fast. Those products are more greenwash, [airquotes] biodegradable

Thank god! No more “should spurs sign Pau Torres” stories. It’ll be interesting to see how he performs. Emery should be a good coach to get the best out of him.

Doesn’t pass a sniff test to me. They plan for 10 games in Canada - split between Toronto and Vancouver. BMO field has 26,000 capacity so assuming 5 games each, that’s only 130,000 tickets. Sure some people will travel with non ticket holders; to counter that some will go to multiple games, and plenty of locals will want tickets. Even allowing for a long tail and seeing this as pure advertising to tourists, I cannot see how this makes a really a significant dent in revenues. That said if the cost is only 30mil then it’s not particularly significant there either (the cities’ budget is 16bn).

I think we are saying the same thing. The best option is the recycling the toxic mess into valuable commodities and clean water.

Yes. Trying at least; (imo) Lemmy hasn’t quite got the critical mass yet. The official Reddit app is so crappy that each time I find myself being drawn back in, I leave really quickly. I didn’t expect me to find it that bad.

I’m not going to argue against anything you’ve said, I’m not going to try to fact check it, & I believe to be largely correct.

I also think its irrelevant.

In the next few years (couple of decades) we are going to see increased wildfire burning of the boreal forests in the global north which is going to release (what I believe is technically called) “a catastrophe fuck-ton” of gasses into the atmosphere. We’ve tipped over the tipping point.

Yeah, that’s my thought. It’s all well & good to say they can, but how? It’s not a capability of the OS, so the only way this could work is some kind of carrier patch (?) or an unpatched bug.

Wrong thread?

Hehe. No pressure @ljdawson@lemmy.world

That’s a beautiful finish! Love it!

Yeah. And it’s having no noticeable effect on inflation … it’s almost like they are turning the wrong dial. The people hurting most with these interest rate rises are those who can least afford it and consequently have least effect on inflation.

Is the poster’s IP address, system, or other system identifier/location, tracked?

If I have users giantshortfacedbear and throwaway123. Then it could be inferred or impled that they are same person if there are from the same IP or phone.

commies? hardcore social(ism)

Honestly I think that is an excellent idea, and at some point someone (like football365) would probably pay a lot of money to take over it (yaay!). Theres a classic Catch-22 - lemmy doesn’t have the critical mass to bother spinning up a dedicated server, but if it’s not done now/soon it will be too late. I’d love to help, but don’t have time.

Flush the water out is really the only option, the longer it sits in tailings ponds the more likely it is to have an uncontrolled spill. We absolutely need someone we can trust to define ‘clean’ though – and that’s not the government nor the mining companies; and we need someone we can trust to monitor it and confirm it is ‘clean’.

That’s a lot of money for Rice. For Arsenal’s sake I hope it doesn’t work out.

I’ve been trying it for concurrent to Rif and Sync. The differences are individually small, but taken as a whole the official app is just horrible. If it weren’t for Rif and Sync, I don’t think I would have become a Reddit user. I’m desperately hoping Lemmy reaches the critical mass and Sync for Lemmy becomes a thing.

I’ve not seen, or perhaps not paid attention to, any blame game. This is exactly what all the modeling for climate change predicts, and it’s gonna get worse. So if people want to point fingers, the list of countries and industries that have produced most CHG gases ever, and currently, is easily available online.
