This is a phony bullshit talking point. The possibility of a cooling climate was briefly raised and entertained in mainstream media for about a year in the 1970s. It was never even remotely a scientific consensus view. Contrast that with human caused warming which has been settled science for decades. There is no comparison. As I said, it's a bullshit talking point.

Dana Designs Arcflex Terraplane backpack purchased in 1994 at Teton Mountaineering in Jackson Wyoming for $400. I've since used it to travel the world and apart from having had to replace its foam back-liner and a buckle, it is still perfectly sound in every way.

Dana Designs doesn't exist anymore, but the guy and organization behind them is still alive and well and making handmade backpacks in Bozeman Montana under the name "Mystery Ranch."

You can get a Mystery Ranch Arcflex Terraplane that's basically the same thing as the original Dana Arcflex, only made with newer, better materials and technology.

Also Marty Stouffer. I'm not sure how to do it, but can we please find a way to fit Marty Stouffer into this equation? Is that asking too much? I just don't want to neglect the great American that is Marty Stouffer.

I'm gonna name my next cat "Marty Stouffer." It will fit right in with my current cat, "Nancy Reagan," who doesn't like you.

I am a union member so this isn't a thing that happens. If management does something unacceptable, we do a strike authorization vote which, if passed by the membership, starts a clock ticking down to strike time and management knows that they are on notice and need to start negotiations.

All of which is just to say that unions are good for workers, regardless of what kind of bullshit you may have been led to believe.

I'm pretty happy with Google Fi. I realize it's Google, which isn't great, but at least they deliver exactly what they say they will and the price is always exactly as advertised.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are taking a loss on it just to gain market share. They can afford it.

My work-around was to never read replies to my comments unless I had good reason to think they would be intelligent. Ultimately this meant that I only really read replies to comments made in niche subs.

It's also the case that several things can be true at once. Like, maybe you are part of the reddit mob-mentality, but on certain issues you have opinions that very much go against the grain.

It's very true. Cable networks are private property whereas broadcast bandwidth is public property. That's the difference. It creates two very disparate regulatory environments.

This is correct. The idea is that bandwidth is public property and as such holding a license to use part of it entails public obligations. This is why radio stations are required to repeat their identification a certain number of times per hour, for example.

Cable networks are privately owned and therefore were never subject to the same kinds of regulation.
