Just gonna say I hate this when other apps do this. I pause cause I need to concentrate on something else. Showing an ad just makes that even harder. Now I have to pause AND close the app.
It makes me happy to see the good place memes.
Would it? In what way? Sure the App Store would be done. But apps I current have and safari would be fine.
My smartphone still works without service. Just as a tablet/computer device. Cars should be the same.
Yeah, true. I still jump to Reddit to view tv show discussions, just won’t log in or comment anymore.
The only thing Lemmy doesn’t have that Reddit does have is the immense history of quality content. This will only get better in time.
Users are dumb, testers are assholes.
George Floyd too. 2020 definitely felt like the boiling point for a lot of things that centered around Trump in a 100% divisive way.
I did a protest vote in 2016 (my state has zero impact), but from now on I want to make sure the numbers show accurately who got the most votes.
If it makes you feel any better, the trend looks like more people are voting as time goes on.
Ok, I get it, 70% of what he earned should have been taken in taxes instead of the abysmal 37% minus all the deductions that generally only apply only to the rich. Point remains the same. Tax these fuckers.
TAX THE FUCKING RICH!!!
70% of that $2.4 million should have been taxed and he can do whatever he wants with the remaining money. OR he can get paid what he actually deserves and leave the rest for the company to become stronger.
Yeah, that’s in the quote. I’m more complaining about the concept of “net zero”.
From the cynical perspective, that makes 100% sense. Not everybody is so cynical, though.
That is the cynical reason for not doing anything ever to help the world.
Why should I vote? I’m one person and that will never make a difference.
Why should I recycle? I’m just one person and that will never make a difference.
Why should I donate to charity? I’m just one person and that will never make a difference.
Anything that you could do individually to help the world will make zero noticeable impact so long as you are the only one doing it. But collectively, the more people doing it the more of an impact it will have.
And how do we get a larger community of people to start something like this? Oh, I don’t know, maybe send your idea out on a forum of like minded people (such as people expressing concern about the environment) and hope to inspire others that actually care to make a change in their own habits.
If you are spending money on factory farmed meat, you are financing the industry.
They did mention that they are working on making 70% of this powered by solar panels. Maybe this will push forward solar technology in some way.
Producing that meat does.
Note that the commenter didn’t say to quit all eating meat. They just said to quit eating “factory farmed” meat.
It’s not about eating meat, it’s about factory farming the meat and the damage to the environment caused by it.
