first one must define reality… if by reality you mean being alive and interacting with the world, then beliefs, even if going against fact, affect reality.

yes. it’s akin to blow up an aircraft carrier.

i have no idea.

it means you’ll have to be a registered member to have access after it goes private.

immigration just to add new meat for the grinder will just increase social divisions, because the cause of the problem will not be dealt with. the same effect can be achieved by demanding a better wealth redistribution by increasing wages and taxing the shit out of the wealthy.

i agree with you, sane immigration policies could also buy time to achieve the needed restructuring of our current system. but there is also a problem about immigration that most don’t take into account. the effect it has on countries where that immigration originates. brain drain is a real problem, if we drain countries from people that are willing to work hard those countries will never develop. the wealth and work redistribution needs to be on a global scale.

immigration is just a bandaid in a collapsing dam scenario. what happens to the current uk citizens(its not happening only in the uk, its a developed world problem) will happen to the new immigrants. as their living standards increase they’ll have less children and we’ll get back to the same problem. not enough new meat for the grinder.

the system needs a foundational reconstruction not patching the roof.

sure. why the hell not? lets go nuts on these data points.

sure

in three dimensions you have three axis. all of those measure distance traveled from 0.

are you 100% sure that elevators don’t travel any distance? or are we going to argue semantics over what distance is or isn’t.

the problem isn’t gmo. the problem is the profit motivation that will invite disaster.

hr being involved sounds like middle management butt hurt.

dude just pirate the game and pay when it is on sale. gabe will aprove because he hasn’t fixed the “i have no money” issue.

nah, danes still pollute a lot. more like indigenous people that are used to live of the land, aborigenes, amazonian tribes, african tribes. you know cultures that are more focused on earth.

aren’t there presidential campaigns next year in the us? this “war on christmas”(dog whistle for war on christian conservatives) concept has become a rallying banner every christmas since at least 2014 for conservatives. every year is the same. they even complained about cups going from red to green in some fast food company because they thought it was a “war on christmas”.

next year elections so they are ramping up their rethoric to rally their voter fanatic christian voter base.

no nuance, please… we aren’t divided enough.

have? no. but a tiny population to feel shame and record creating and keeping would not be all that bad. 5 million humans would be more than enough.

because it isn’t modding it’s just aesthetic changes. that is why it is called “ricing”, because on the car community just changing the looks is considered trash tuning.

gentoo

i think evs are still too expensive for the common uruguaian(?) wallet. so they still use oil for cars. but 4 months 100% renewables is great news.
