Hydro requires massive destruction of nature. We can do way better than hydro. I live in BC where all my power is hydro. I, and the endangered, keystone species of our local ecosystem would be very happy to see every dam demolished on favour of other actually planet friendly methods.

Indian culture is especially sexiest and repressive.

What terrible graphs.

So if you miss a payment your mouse shuts off?

How is your standing policed, with an always online requirement? So if I move and need to wait to get my internet up, I can't use my mouse?

Are they legally liable for lifetime support or are you signing away that right in the EULA and they can end support for your "lifetime" mouse on a whim?

I'd rather rent my furniture than subscribe to a mouse, but both practices are exploiting this world's rampant financial illiteracy.

Fun fact:

In Dutch, two o's make a long o sound. Dode. "oe" makes the "oo" sound.

The vibraphone wants a word. Lionel Hampton is spinning in his grave.

They figured a way to fabricate their own. Like the shuttles.

You are warned about this very prominently when you leave the ship. With the exception of the medical emergency, it's the passengers' fault. I'm disabled too, I had a tour go overtime, we made them cut it short because we didn't wasn't to be in the exact situation described in the article we were amply warned about.

Did you ever play SimCopter? Fly around your simcity 2000 city in a helicopter doing jobs? It was my favourite game for a long time.

I tried getting into Destiny a couple months ago. There is no hook for new players. It's like watching a later season of some over the top, corny, convoluted show without ever getting to watch the previous episodes. The level design is just silly. Towns aren't towns, they are mazes with a bunch static, talking props haphazardly sprinkled about. Every time I came back to the game it'd play some cinematic I don't understand and throw me into some place I have never been with no instruction on how to get back. I did not play for long and won't play again.

Plex isn't another evil tech company, it's just full of stupid features and unresolved bugs. Jellyfin just isn't good enough to replace it yet; it's more finicky to setup, isn't as good as matching titles and displaying the metadata, and has fewer features. But it is catching up fast.

It's overburdened. We have a huge labour shortages for nurses and doctors as the boomers retire without enough replacements. Finding a regular family doctor takes a long time. When Covid spikes, the hospital staff are run ragged. But they make a nice living helping people, there are worse fields to work in.

When you need medical attention you get it. If you need surgery today, you get surgery today. If you need surgery or a specialist but there's no rush, you're on a wait list that can be months or even over a year long.
