It's "vegans" like this that make the entire movement look bad. They need to be removed as a mod. The movement needs to be honest by letting free and equal exchange of ideas and viewpoints

I guess it comes down to whether we want to primarily communicate battery size in terms of charge (Coulombs = Amps * Time) or energy (Joules = Watts * Time).

The first metric you multiply by your operating voltage to get the second metric, whereas the second metric you have to divide by your voltage to get the first. Depends on what comes easier to most people.

There are literally like 10 different major dictionaries. If you have one specific one in mind, I'll kindly refer you to OneLook.com

Single stream recycling is a scam. Multi stream is much better. I recycle my paper and metals separately from glass and plastics for this reason. Wish there was an easy way to recycle glass too, but the collection networks aren't as widespread as the other two.

Fucking utilities man. ERCOT has made so many recommendations over the years for the regional utilities to make changes and strengthen their grids, but short-term profit motive gets in the way of stability of an essential service. Why we privatized the grids in this country is beyond me

That's an amazing idea. I had no clue this was a thing. I would imagine openvpn is free?

I was just thinking about this: peer review admin actions. A first admin could initiate the action, then the peer review could be assigned randomly to another admin - randomly so that admins can't create specific cartels to team up on specific topics.

Using water to make food is a good use so long as it doesn't led to waste on the part of us humans throwing that food out. This is a larger issue than just animal agriculture, but animal products have larger water footprints and consequently make up a higher proportion of that waste.

Also, water isn't destroyed, but it's extracted and shipped to other parts of the planet. This virtually eliminates the water present in the origin biome. Again, this issue cuts across animal and plant agriculture, but animal products have a higher water footprint and make up a higher proportion of that water displacement.

I think my original comment points to a greater understanding of the system wholistically than any of your one-off comments have. If you want to convince the viewer of this point, do my comment but better.

Cottonseed isn't the only feedstock for animal agriculture. Soy, grain, and corn are all others. The fact that cottonseed is utilized doesn't negate the utilization of other crops farmed specifically for animal agriculture, and not as a byproduct of another industry. That byproduct could be used for other purposes, including continuation of cotton farmers' own biostock for future plantings. But of course most cotton grown around the world is genetically modified to withstand fungicides, and these fungicides don't just wash off. Many people have allergic reactions to cotton depending on how it's grown and where it's sourced. Imagine now that that cottonseed is going into your food supply, where it doesn't go away.

I think that the circular economy is a virtue and we as a species should aim for it, but you pointing to cottonseed metrics ignores the larger variables associated with soy, corn, grain, and alfalfa. Those crops are all grown directly, not indirectly in the case of cottonseed, for animal agriculture, and do not offset the savings you get from using a byproduct.

Most agriculture is pursued for feedstock for the animal agriculture industry. This is true all across the planet. Also, CO2 != CH4.
