Pool cue tips are another place I'd like to see a real vegan alternative. It's such a small percentage of an even smaller population it would take a vegan world chmpion or something to make real progress.

I love pool but I don't think there is a viable way to avoid the leather tip, it kinda sucks.

My comrade in veganism: this is not the way. Kindness is the only way your message will be heard. If Daryl Davis (a black man) can convince hundreds of KKK members to leave the organization by befriending them and forging relationships, sometimes over years, then you can tone it down and be kind to someone who doesn't share your views and wants to eat a cheeseburger. Doesnt make them "right", but your approach just makes you insufferable in the eyes of people you don't agree with, which is almost everyone. Trust me, I've been doing it for decades and you are not setting a good example for the chill vegans out there. Calm down, love people regardless of their differences, there is enough division in the world. Do not turn your ethics into religious fundamentalism. You can control your behavior and you can be a good ambassador. In short: don't be a smug asshole that thinks they are superior for any reason.

Very few can say that they truly exist without ANY trace of animal products in their lives.

Forreal, longtime vegan here.... Vegans (online mostly) annoy me more than most people. I swear we aren't all jerks! I'm probably a major sell out, I don't even have a problem with hunters.

The answer is here, but you just can't fight physics. Light needs to come through a lens and hit a sensor. There has to be some significant distance, in relation to the thickness of the phone for this to work. Until camera technology advances and somehow produces a comparatively sharp image, we will be stuck with the bump. It'll happen at some point I'm sure, but there is a whole bunch of tech that will need to change to get there.

We need these all over the place in the U.S. - If the tech works out, problem solved, fewer chemical battery downsides. https://www.euronews.com/green/2024/02/06/this-disused-mine-in-finland-is-being-turned-into-a-gravity-battery-to-store-renewable-ene

No way, this stuff is excellent. Hard to believe yours is a good faith take when Trump & co spew the most vile commentary that is completely fact free day after day. This is sarcastic, but it's not really an exaggeration. They could go harder, this is still quite professional, I love to see it. Finally the Dems are in the rhetoric race.

Yes. Fearmonger more. You keep up that driving! The rest of us will take advantage of more spare time to read while we cruise smoothly by the cars sitting in traffic. Truly a nightmare.
