I initially went to #Indonesia, back in 2011, because of the country’s troubling history with deforestation, driven primarily, historically, by demand for tropical commodities including #palmoil#paperpulp & #rubber.
In the past decade, as I’ve covered these issues for numerous outlet, much has changed. In some ways there has been real progress in increasing traceability and stemming deforestation, but at the same time, much of the supply chain remains opaque.
Today is the 78th anniversary of the first detonation of a nuclear weapon on Earth, the Trinity Test in New Mexico in 1945, three weeks before the nuclear attacks on Japan.
There will be many images posted of the mushroom cloud today, but here is what mattered more, the fallout cloud. Dozens of homes and communities were blanketed with fallout, which which also contaminated fields as far away as Illinois and Indiana.
I am fucking weirded out by the fact that there are people on tech.lgbt who bend over to defend those weird tech bro services that archive people's accounts without their consent
Like as queer people you've never had to deal with worrying about privacy/doxxing? I guess one day your innocence will be broken and you'll change your minds.
It's so fundamentally wrong and gross to copy and archive people's social media profiles without their consent I can't even fathom defending that.
Even more so when people do it as an obvious startup thing trying to create a business. The guy had 155 patreons and literally replaces every account's bio with an ad for his patreon.
the existence of those kinds of services is the kind of shit that makes me worry at night every now and then when I think about possible ways someone might doxx me
@glitzersachen I don't know. Polite and Clean is what every English Teachers says. Its a saying in Japan. If your not a Japan resident you wouldn't understand. Collect your three gaijin points and proceed to the bar at the HUB.
@bubbline No idea whats happening here. Japan is polite and clean, but the divorce stuff is weird. My friend had a relation with a married woman and he had to pay the husband money for the divorce! So not always polite and clean after all.
Is this its so hard to find #Chinese#vegetarian food in #Japan? It certainly seems like most of the diaspora here, unlike the US or #SEAsia, is from Northern China.
"In southern China, vegetarian restaurants are more plentiful than in the north."
