Depopulation through declining birthrates seems a lot better for economies than depopulation through massive drought, famines and pestilence brought on through climate change.

When will they stop seeing this as a problem that needs to be solved, rather than a solution a number of problems we’re currently experiencing?

It’s relatively easy to self host your own git repositories.

It’s just that Github adds a lot of extra value added features that help streamline things for larger projects, and this is why many people use it. For most people, the value they get far outweighs the inconvenience when it goes down for 10 minutes here or there.

Using git (or equivalent) is pretty important. Using github is pretty optional.

Granted, but the server never washes their hands after handling money, before grabbing and dunking the lemon slice in your water

Don’t buy those guns idiots

No, its a consequence of increased security and the inconvenience of have to sign out and create a new account when reselling the phone was an acceptable compromise, rather than an intended ‘bonus’ side effect. A lot of times companies do do that, but this wasn’t one off them.

This was your friend’s fault, and yours to trade cash before understanding how the system worked.

When certain parts of the official narrative are shown to be false or misleading, it’s easier to assume other aspect of the official narrative are also false or misleading . Its pretty important that all parts of a story are consistent either each other.

I grew up in a blue collar area and the normal lines that get repeated over and over is that unions prevent hard workers from standing out and excelling. They reward and promote laziness. They make the labour so expensive the business cant survive. And on and on.

A single key is also a loss risk if you take anything out of a pocket. I’m always nervous about a single key. And then there’s the ‘where did that go’ when you change without emptying the pockets because its so small you forget its there.

If they pay just enough, with tips, then what is it without tips? Not enough. Statistically, more people would move to another just that put y back into ‘just enough’ category.

I don’t see that as 180 at all.

But if everyone did it, people wouldn’t be able to afford to work there. There would be no staff and the business would be forced to increase their pay to retain labour, or shut their doors.

Edit for typos.

Oh, you mean doing the job they agreed to do for an hourly rate? Why am i subsidizing the corporation not paying them fairly?

I guess I misinterpreted when they talk about LNG pipelines.

That isn’t much comfort though, since gas leaks are both more likely and more difficult to contain.

They pipe it in liquid form, LNG.

And more leaks than they report.

Well pointed out. Too bad the emissions are higher than anyone connected with the industry is willing to admit.

Seems good. Until you realize they just shifted to ‘Natural Gas’. Aka liquid methane, which in the short term traps heat 80 times worse than CO2 for about 20 years.

Those wasn’t a move to help the environment, just to make to oil barons richer.

When you only have one choice, you don’t have a choice.

Yea obviously we’re at the point where the only non fascist choice is to vote for an unpopular incumbent, but it seems like the choice has been completely removed from the democratic process in the US and you have to wonder how much of it is exactly by design, and whose.

No, by obstructing his and his supporters efforts in key primaries, because the DNC knew they wanted Hillary for reasons.

I can’t control how other people vote, but the party’s can. That’s their job.

I knew the DNC fucked up when they tanked Bernie’s run.
And look what we got.
