People are willing to pay for it. It's that easy.

There's a 4B movement now? What happened to 2B?

Don't buy it new, buy it second-hand. Or better, buy a FairPhone.

The human resources are not being utilised enough!

According to a 2024 article in the International Journal of Sustainable Energy, Germany could have saved hundreds of billions of euros and reduced its carbon emissions by as much as 70% by embracing nuclear energy rather than rejecting it.

Good job German Greens! Well done! 👏👏👏

They are like the right wingers: ideology over facts. I bet if the conservatives win in the next election, fuck some other parts of the country but manage to introduce nuclear again, the next green government will go about undoing nuclear, regardless of its benefits.

Better fire all degree-holders right now.

That's quite subjective. I'm pretty sure when I say "I talked to the male around the corner" people won't start assuming I talked to a dog, pigeon, or snake.

Many of us actually posting have either too much time on our hands, care about something deeply, or don't care that much and just want to troll. Throw that together into one pot and you get a lot of attacks. It doesn't help that you don't see the person and many people don't understand how different communication is without body language.

So, yes, I think it's easy to feel attacked. The harder part is not to attack and most of us fail that, which is why the web is often so toxic. Personally, I try to care less and block more. Someone calls you a braindead nincompoop? Either block and call them an idiot off-screen, or leave a snarky message and then block. At least that's what I do, and I forget about what happened like 5 minutes later.

Is this a real image? It nearly looks real except for her teeth.

Being poor isn't a failure. You had bad luck and didn't have things in place to protect yourself, which was a mistake. Learn from it. You've been up there before and know the path to it. Try and do better and you might make it again.

I bet your son will remember more about how you being there for him than the failure - regardless of whether you're poor or not in the future.

 

With all the money going into the Ukraine war and other ventures since Putin came to power, I imagine there's a lot of stuff he could've done to make the world a better place and Russia a formidable world power.

 

Was watching this video on the "tri-fold" phone by MKBHD and that thing is thicc! I don't care about folds, but I can't find a single phone without a fold ~~phone~~ that is that thick. The battery life would be amazing...

 

The eyes have it: Men do see things differently to women

The way that the visual centers of men and women's brains works is different, finds new research published in BioMed Central's open access journal Biology of Sex Differences. Men have greater sensitivity to fine detail and rapidly moving stimuli, but women are better at discriminating between colors.

 

No more men's and women's league, no more "gender eligibility" requirements, a common dresscode, same standards and rules for all.

Edit: since it looks like people missing the word let: the suggestion isn't to force desegregation. It's to allow it or even make it the default. Someone else made a good suggestion: segregate by attributes specific to the sport. In boxing it's weight class, in basketball it could be height, in biking it could even be doped and non doped. Sex and gender need not be the very first thing to segregate by.

 

From credit card and payday loan commercials telling us to get into it, to people joking about the amount of debt they're in and also telling you to get into it, debt is a real thing that supposedly nobody should care about. Am I wrong here? Is it just normal to be in debt or should we try to fight this?
#debt #money #finance #jokes

 

I just heard of a Non Educated Delinquent (NED) but that's Scottish

 

When I saw MKBHD on threads available through flipboard, the thought crossed my mind. Wouldn't it be a game changer for the biggest websites to suddenly try to coax users and content creators with "one account to rule them all" solution?
