  • Rogue Austrian minister burns bridges to save EU nature law

    Jump

  • Absolute fucking hero.

  • It Takes Two does not require EA app anymore and its Steam Deck Verified now

    Jump

  • Me and my wife... Got really bored. The gameplay loop is supppperr trivial, and even though they add in stuff every now and again, eh...

    I dunno, it's okay - but I just don't get the hype. I wanted to pitch in because if someone is considering buying it I'd really recommend checking a Let's Play of it before trying it.

    It felt like a game specifically designed for a gamer to introduce gaming to their never-gamed-before partner. If you're both experienced gamers like we are, I wonder whether you'd give up on it too.

  • What kind of jelly do you use for your peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?

    Jump

  • TIL thanks.

  • What's the difference?

  • Jeremy Corbyn to run as independent candidate in UK general election

    Jump

  • Corbyn was absolutely shit smeared by the press; if you get people to look at Corbyn's Labour policies in isolation, I reckon you'd be hard pressed to find someone that disliked them.

    I wonder why privately held media would do this...

    Jump

  • Was he not very popular in his constituency though?

  • Why are neurotypicals in charge of making up the social rules? They're not even very good at it.

    Jump

  • That seems like a big reaching conclusion based on very little data.

    Friendship goes both ways and requires equal effort from both parties to make it work. Being rigid and unadapatable is a great way to whittle away your friends unnecessarily.

  • It's that easy!

    Jump

  • But don't you see how doomerism contributes to the problem?

  • It's that easy!

    Jump

  • Evil triumphs when good people do nothing, but there are more good people than evil.

    The trouble is, evil is great at rallying evil and demoralising good. That's why we have to fight back.

    Positive change is possible if we work together.

  • It's that easy!

    Jump

  • Stop. Please stop. Doomerism compounds the problem, it is not a neutral stance.

    Has irreparable damage already been done? Yes.

    Will it be worse if we don't do anything as soon as possible? Yes. And each moment that we don't do the thing, it gets a little bit worse.

    But each moment we do do the thing, it gets a little bit better.

    The Earth will relatively be 1.5°, likely 2°C hotter, regardless of what actions are now taken. But 2°C hotter is far, far preferable to 4°C.

    Everything we do as individuals and societies matters. I understand it feels daunting, and I'm not really advocating for you to drive less or eat less meat, because ultimately these changes won't be driven by individuals making the choices.

    However, please please please support and push, protest, fight for societal changes for us collectively to drive less, eat less meat, and corporate carbon taxation.

  • Am I going fucking crazy? (Regarding explicit songs being censored on various music streaming services.)

    Jump

  • I get that it's not necessarily simple, however... Firstly, surely streaming companies could push for a standard formatting to make their lives easier. And second, why does a track that was previously explicit suddenly start playing as the clean version one day? Why is the data for it continually being changed?

    Jump

  • Oh my God, thank you for the confirmation.

    Jump

  • But I don't understand - it's inconsistent. Some stuff will be censored and others won't be?

  • From solar to EVs: With China's overproduction and state subsidies, the US and EU are working to ensure that their clean-energy sectors aren't wiped out by unfair competition

    Jump

  • I am not sure how to feel about this.

    On one hand, it seems awfully petty in one sense when our ecological fate rests on going green as fast as possible.

    On the other, I absolutely appreciate the importance of not letting domestic production get completely swamped by foreign markets.

  • more on intellectual property...

    Jump

  • Sorry, you're quite right - I misread it to begin with.

  • more on intellectual property...

    Jump

  • This paper suggests you're spot on that they're not as profitable as other large companies, but they're still making an awful lot of money on top of the necessary costs.

    Jump

  • Except as highlighted, if the drug didn't make a return on investment it wouldn't be made. That can be true for government funded research, it's not necessary to have a profit margin on top.
