Actually, in 2022 there were 94m barrels produced globally per day. So this is 2%. Statistically, not insignificant. Hopefully it’ll continue to grow rapidly.

I might be mistaken then, but doesn’t part of Net Neutrality mean that telecommunication companies can’t throttle unlimited plans?

I used the phone app and started a chat. Here’s what I asked, and their response:

I just replied this to another commenter, but that’s a bad faith argument. The ToS also says to not engage in illegal activity. The admonishment of Nazi’s and Racists is an admonishment of illegal evil.

That’s a bad faith argument. The ToS also says to not engage in illegal activity. The admonishment of Nazi’s and Pedophiles is an admonishment of illegal evil.

Your inclusion of Republicans is a bit of an extreme juxtaposition. Feel free to admonish the individual evil views of Republicans, but to discriminate against Republicans purely for their association is rightly against ToS.

T-Mobile users; be aware that T-Mobile has prepared for this and are trying to automatically transition grandfathered accounts with unlimited everything into their new plans.

I’m not 100% sure if the coverage of the new plans are technically worse, but they’re definitely more expensive. And I wouldn’t be surprised if the new plans had contact language to do a rug pull in the future.

You need to opt out of the transition.

In my opinion this is actually better than the CoC. The only thing “missing” is the definition of which qualities you shouldn’t discriminate against. But that’s now generalized into “groups of people”.

I still can’t discriminate against people based on any qualification. Hell, I technically can’t discriminate against “pineapple on pizza eaters”.

Not really tricky at all. Especially if they limit the expiration date to be within the gap of the current closure logic (min 3-6 months).

Especially “especially” if they made the expiration date a new field, one that offline users could ignore, and navsoftware could use imperatively.

Not too difficult, I imagine. Especially if it’s a default field in the UI under Access.

As for the companies making the nav software itself, I’m sure they’d love to implement temporary closures.

Hmm, OSM is perhaps the biggest base for alternative navigational software. Seems like a huge design flaw.

I’m obviously oblivious to the implementation difficulties, but it seems like it should be extremely simple to add something akin to a “temporarily closed until” field, so that uses can set and forget, and it’ll resolve itself without a secondary edit.

That way, offline users can ignore this field, and nav software must use it.

The word “radiation” has unfortunately been commandeered by idiots to mean “TOXIC MAGIC AIR”. Lightbulbs radiate (produce light).

In this case they’re 100% just reducing the gain on the phone’s signal strength. No harm prevented. Purely regulatory.

Excellent point. The initial intent of my squabble wasn’t trying to deny that counter-examples exist, just that when comparing 100 houses to 100 apartments, that there seemed to be losses in living space for the apartment (law of averages and whatnot).

I had made another comment on that /c/FuckCars thread that calculated that if all of the homes had 1-car garages (which is not uncommon for a lot of dense low-density suburbs), then the homes would be 1740 SqFt with the garage / 1500 SqFt Livable, and the apartments would be 1009 SqFt livable. So a 33% loss of livable space in the image with what I would consider a reasonable assumption.

Wow, what an awe-inspiring counter-example, lol

I mean, I’m not going to ask you to doxx yourself, but I’m extremely curious to know where you’re seeing these homes that are, as you describe them, like 150 SqFt of livable area (10x10 studio + 5x8 bathroom) with an attached 3 car garage.

Edit: And to clarify, the 1500 was pulled out of an anecdotal average. My observations while shopping for homes here in the US have been; 2 bed / 1 bath, could be as small as 800 SqFt, but it’s cramped. Whereas in middle-class suburbia, it’s not uncommon to see 2500+ SqFt homes.

False equivalency. “Addict” has different meaning dependent on the volatility of what you’re addicted to. “Master Race” has one meaning.

My point though is that the implications of both phrases is the same.

“We are part of the glorious PC Master Race” = “We are part of a group of humans who understand PCs are better than any alternative”

One’s more extreme with a stained past (regardless of how subjectively cringey it may sound), the other is not.

Comparing critics of the PCMR name to people who think the word master is racist is pretty disingenuous. It’s literally master race, a term that was coined to identify a group of humankind which is better than the rest, a term that is inseparable from Nazi’s.

It’s not about being offended. It’s about being at odds with myself for wanting to be a part of a community because I agree with its values, while wanting to disassociate from the community because of a (seemingly) easy to change name that people don’t want to change.

I’m bad at coming up with names, but anything that evokes “is best” that isn’t “master race” would work.

Here are some probably bad examples:

• PC Is King
• PC Over Consoles
• PC Reigns Supreme
• PC Ascendency

Assuming this post stays up, guess I’ll start.

(Edit: first off, the question is easy to misread, and I voted the opposite of my intent. So I voted twice in my intended intent to offset it)

I voted yes because I fully recognize it’s a joke, but I also fully recognize it’s a joke in poor taste.

I watched Yahtzee religiously back in the day, laughed at this specific joke, and thought it was odd a community adopted the name.

I’d also like to point people to this community without awkward introductions.
