Q: hey environmentalists how's it going?
A: WE MUST SAVE THE PLANET BY MAKING MORE PLASTIC
>The article then goes on to explain that solar + co2 capture results in methane. But isn't this at best co2 neutral? Since nearly all use-cases for methane would release the co2 again and would make the credits' comparison pointless?
>I think they mention it further down, but some fraction of methane isn't burned but turned into things like plastic and other industrial chemicals.
>>And not all of it will be re-released into the atmosphere. As we saw in the Ocean Farming article, some of it will sink in the oceans13 . Even today, 3% of methane is not burned, but used in other ways like plastics production, thus leaving the carbon cycle altogether...
A: YES PRAISE THE EARTH, CARBON HAS LEFT THE CYCLE AND BECOME PLASTIC

1. nitter's usable again, but only with the daemon using a twitter account, therefore I am using third-party nitters again like a peasant who doesn't know how to use a computer
2. direct links to single tweets also work through embeds and services like vxtwitter.com
3. people seem to be content to stay on the platform even with rate limits and account requirements. People used to using accounts are very slow to see how the new-user experience is devolving to a claymore-mined "FUCK OFF" sign. -

of nothing (apropos@freespeechextremist.com)'s status on Tuesday, 11-Jul-2023 03:10:45 JST of nothing Q: but what if I think it's shameful to invest skill into tricks with a toy?
A: life isn't an RPG. You don't have a limited amount of skill points, and a level cap. Use some spare time when you have it.
A: however this question also separates the yo-yo-ist from the ball-and-cupper: if the audience sneers at skill with a toy, then the yo-yo-ist has nothing to say against that, and moreover is denied the sole benefit of the skill investment. And what can he say? That legend says that the yo-yo was a comically impractical weapon that no military or bandit uses today? Meanwhile the ball-and-cup is satisfying on its own - the audience can deny no benefit. And, this can be demonstrated: "if you mock me, then take it and try to get the ball into the cup!" The heckler will smirk, and then make a show of rolling his eyes and not caring as he fails, but then the first time the ball lands neatly into the cup, the heckler's eyes will widen into plates. Though mostly an accident, though a feat of no skill, though hard to repeat - the ball is in the cup! How satisfying! And there is a faint sting of regret that the ball must be removed from the cup before further attempts can be made. -

>an easy trick with a yo-yo looks very hard. A very hard trick with a ball-and-cup looks easy.
as expected from reddit, his goal is to show off, superficially, to other people. To amaze those who don't know any better. To invest as little personal effort for the most efficient return of social esteem - likes, or upvotes.
therefore, the anti-reddit path is to prefer the ball-and-cup precisely because it its tricks are much harder. The results are more satisfying, and are satisfying on their own and in private, without a social requirement to bedazzle the ignorant. And whereas the yo-yo-ist will prefer to hide his skills like a magician, the ball-and-cupper easily shares the toy, impressing with substance when the trick is not so easily duplicated! -

of nothing (apropos@freespeechextremist.com)'s status on Sunday, 09-Jul-2023 04:32:03 JST of nothing @rlier23 @ArdainianRight it's a "bonus" from the perspective of a degenerate with a penis, who can derive pleasure from any hole. From the perspective of a woman,
1. she doesn't have a prostate to stimulate from the ass
2. the vagina is designed for the activity, with lubricant and thicker walls (harder to tear and get STDs through) and also some frankly bizarre reactions to male ejaculate that help with pair bonding
but this game of taking a very particular perspective and declaring that it's universal, they do that all the time don't they? With their 'inclusive' spaces that exclude you, and their 'safe spaces' that you feel uncomfortable in, and their 'diversity' that's just about how many white men a group has in it. -
of nothing (apropos@freespeechextremist.com)'s status on Sunday, 09-Jul-2023 04:10:01 JST of nothing @Shadowbroker2135 @Titanbreakerkun @gucciloafers @RealRaul sexual identity is all about persuading the next generation to make itself sexually available to you. People who would normally form a breeding pair and have a family and die surrounded by great-grandchildren are instead molested and told: ha, now you've got this sexual identity and you've got to go to these bars and have these sexual partners and then die of drug abuse and disease in your 40s.
So, it's not at all weird that they'd have puritan views about video games, which compete with them for the attention of the next generation. -

A bunch of confetti came down from the ceiling, alarms went off, and a store employee came out to say "Congratulations! This was the TEN MILLIONTH notification about whether drawn pictures are the same thing as evidence of child molestation! Your prize is a subscription to LO magazine!" -

Nobody's arguing that the US doesn't have a really lame reason to distribute BANNED clusterbombs. It's not even a faux pas for Biden to come out with the reason this time. People generally expect some kind of reason for actions. "I stabbed the old lady to get her money so that I could eat with it." is a reason for stabbing an old lady which won't much impress someone saying that you shouldn't stab old ladies. -

>I have no way of knowing *why* I am being turned down.
but telling you why could be very offensive. You should be happy about this! A safe space isn't a space rich in communication, OK?
>employers turning down a Bachelor's degree holder for a job that pays $30,000 a year?
it's really tough to adequately explain how much of a fucking scam college is. For your debt you should be prepared to make your own money with your skills, and be able to price yourself out of that job even with no offers.
free advice: get a job doing literally anything to pay rent, gain an entertainment skill in your free time, and do something like make a game with fun economic simulation and good data visualization. -
