I think the question is, why are you bringing up millennials when the issue of microplastics did not start with them, nor will it end with them.

Can the Native Americans freely leave the reservations?

Easy solution. Stop having kids.

Selfish to bring them into this world anyways.

Donkey Kong 64 was made by Rare and has more lore and story than all the other Donkey Kong games combined, so I'm not sure wtf this writer is smoking.

Good job on providing a perfect example of exactly what he's talking about.

Sometimes you see data and just know that the methodology had to have been shit.

The average response thought 30% of the US was in NY?! No fucking chance.

From a selfish perspective, why should the entire populace be forced to give up small luxuries in their increasingly difficult lives just so that a handful of large corporations don't have to make any changes?

Why isn't it that these large corporations should be forced to change, thus removing the need for everyone getting rid of their small luxuries?

Just seems ridiculous that the message is "everyone should give up their creature comforts and live as simply and tediously as possible so that billionaires don't have to change".

You're standing by a factory next to extremely loud machinery and complaining about the guy whispering next to you.

The internet's opinion of Israel is changing, not sure how much is actually changing in the real world. The last election should have been a wakeup call to a lot of folks that the opinions they hear in their online echo chambers don't match the opinions of the general public. The average voter is uniformed and doesn't follow the news.

 

Is it just a matter of not being worth it? I see cooling towers releasing what appears to be a ton of steam, pretty high up. If that steam were captured at the top and allowed to condense, wouldn't that result in a ton of water with a lot of gravitational potential energy? That water could then be released and used to power water turbines. Maybe I'm overestimating the amount of water being released as steam, or underestimating how much is needed to spin a water turbine to get a meaningful result, but it seems like wasted energy to me.

 

I'm aiming to get the 30k steps in a day achievement and was wondering if the app considered a day as in a calendar day, or if it's 30k steps in 24 hours?

30k steps comes out to about 15 miles. If the app goes off 24 hours, I was considering taking a backpacking trip some weekend and hiking half in an afternoon, stopping for the night, and doing the rest in the morning. But if it goes by calendar, I'd have to adjust my plans.

 

I'm moving across the country in a few weeks and am trying to plan my route as I'll be driving a moving van with a car towed behind it. The entire drive will be 16-17 hours.

Google maps seems limited for searching everything I'd want to take into account for the route (pull through gas stations, height requirements, avoiding mountain highways, etc.) and was wondering if anyone knew of a better way to plan out the trip?
