There is no ethical consumption.

"What, me worry?"

Confusing headline. Nestlé is still called "Nestlé". They sold the plant in 2021, I guess that is what is meant by "formerly Nestlé".

St Peter doesn't judge you! He's always depicted with a book that already contains the judgements. He has no real authority, he's just the gatekeeper.

The nuclear batteries small enough for handheld devices that we've been reading about recently don't use any water.

I know the rhetorical point you are making, but prisons are not free housing. In Ontario, they are terrifyingly outdated, under regulated, unsupervised hellholes.

There's more than just that. There is hatred of the poor, which exists in every class. A phenomenon we're all very familiar with but which does not even have a name. It's always politically advantageous to attack the poor, and it rarely wins elections to attack poverty.

This is the kind of thing that really demands performance testing. It's a lot of mass and expense. You just don't know whether it pays vs a fully enclosed shell until you run the numbers.

I feel like headwinds would be less of a problem than tacking into the wind.

So that's "no, not really." At least, that's my understanding, also.

Ah, that bastion of social responsibility. If the only thing I know about someone is that they are on Twitch, I'm probably not motivated to learn a second thing about them. One can say Twitch > 4chan > Stormfront, but it's a pretty shallow gradient.

They are all available on every instance. It's not different than having five communities for the same subject on Reddit. It's worse here right now because so few communities have managed to "clear their orbit" yet, but it will get better.

But, that's not relevant to communities. You can kill a community by technical means, but technical means cannot create one; it's necessary but not sufficient, and not even the hard part.

Most people are still on fucking FACEBOOK. They are willing to put up with almost unlimited bullshittery for the sake of their sense of community. Building a better mousetrap won't work, and building a vaguely equivalent mousetrap won't even move the needle.
