Thank you, fucking knobs, for the unnecessary environmental impact of all that bitcoin mining. Also, has no one had their fecking bitcoin keys stolen and their funds drained?
Everyone uses normal money. Less than 1% of people use bitcoin. (using non crypto promoting data). Per transaction and per capita, the energy used by banks is way less.
Also I don’t lose all my funds from someone getting my keys.
I get this because people in my wider wider circle post or talk about their riding, and people in the comments treat horse trainers like they’re doing a public service, taking those poor lovely animals out for a stroll or a obstacle course run. And the hobby is such an Instagramable activity because posh people do it,...
I have been daily driving Linux for over two years now and I have switched distros many times. So, when my friend bought a new laptop, I convinced him to install Linux Mint on it. I asked him if he wanted to dual boot, he said no because it would fill up all his storage. We installed Linux Mint. The other day, he wanted to play...

I guess when you consider that citizens of rich capitalist countries have to throw away so much of their income in commodified and privatised education, I guess that it is possible that countries like amerikkka can spend near the top.
“I’m not gonna do anything about the climate crises or the massive economic problems facing families, but I’ll worry about what trans people are doing.” God fuck her.
This article is fine, I don’t disagree with it. But compare a crime committed by the government of a US ally (Thailand) vs one by a US enemy (China). Amnesty International has a cosy relationship with the US.
Honestly, AI is fine. They’re far better than most human rights groups. In regards to Israel, “genocide” wasn’t mentioned until the ICJ. Anyhow, searching for “Israel” in their website does not mean that AI criticised Israel 400 times. Just look through the articles.
Let me preface this by saying I’m not a fan at all of Bill Burr, but he recently went on Bill Maher’s show, and said he was with the students. He’s also said some inflammatory things in the past, so I’m not sure. Are we cool with Bill Burr, now?
Fuck Bill Barr. His commentary on Bill Maher was centrist at best. I’ll never forgive him for the other fucked up shit he said, or at least until he actually apologises (spoiler: he won’t).
Definitely not blaming you. I guess I don’t have this problem as most of the places I visit are vegan. Maybe I’m lucky as there are more options in my city. If it makes you feel any better, I accidentally bought the real pork version of something cuz I was tired, and ate two bites because before I realised.
Thanks for the effort you’re putting in. Things will get better in the future.

Sorry for the noob question. But considering the awful way that the US is treating the protests, should people push for BDS from Amerika? Like should we advocate that people not travel to the US? Not study in the US? Not collaborate with research with the US. And not buy US products....
The Australian Strategic Policy Institute thinktank estimates that 95 civilian universities in China have links to the defence sector.
Oh, the think tank with the guy who gets satellite images of schools and says that it’s definitely a Uighur concentration camp, the one funded by the military.
