Pssht! Don't say that out loud, or we need to love bomb y'all with Nostalgia Max [1]....

Full agree. Also this headline by the Telegraph is total clickbait.
"Dystopian World"? We do have free speech within limits, but it's neither China, Russia or North Korea.
But we're also no free speech absolutists.
This article is a pretty bad framing by that newspaper, but tbh it fits into their regular pattern of reporting.

If you normalize and average the carbon emissions of the whole Aral Sea to tonnes of carbon per year and sqm over the whole time, you get sometihing like 13 tonnes / year / sqm.
But compare that to what a dried out peat bogs emits - around 246 tonnes / year / km^2 [1] - one should become humble and try to protext existing and re-wet dry peat bogs.

Yes, refilling the Aral Sea must be a goal, but we must not ignore other lever we have.

The one exception to Betteridge's law of headlines.

I know the answer, but it's still surprising that 85% of the people are still willing to pay AI tax.

As soon as Craig Wong's lawyer says this won't create a defamatory confusion with his client.

The worst part about Spotify podcasts (and I already pay for the family plan, so that doesn't bother me) is that they put them in the regular app with no separate queue, so switching between the two items is a huge pain in the ass, and you're guaranteed to lose your place in one or more them. With my music on Spotify and my podcasts on PocketCasts, no problem at all. End result? I don't listen to any Spotify exclusive podcasts at all. Could be fixed. They don't care.

The editors have never paid attention to what the hell they are doing. This isn't the first time, nor the last.

Spot on - if you can go 6 years, you're not challenging much and probably don't top $1k. You're not buying the highest end stuff and you're not worried about playing at the highest settings and resolutions.

You need to look into this concept called a "patient portal".

Arguing those people should get accounts on IMDB and other movie-related sites in order to be more broadly consistent in their rape and death threats in an intriguing idea, but I think not ultimately a good one.

It's odd how you were inspired to make a link for your Hood effect, but it's not to a website or article explaining what the Hood effect is. Neither does Google seem to find any good quick explanation of it. That was very helpful, thank you.

I don't think they're angry rants at all. They tend to be stupid, coddle me, "I don't understand" types of posts that are utterly pointless, but I've not ever seen them to be emotional per se.

I don't think it's integrity Bennett Haselton doesn't have, it's brevity. Different ity.

No. We've only seen that (some!) southerners survive, because we are only shown the south. We have no information about anywhere else.
