Awww you sent me links to review

McCarthy was mostly right in his accusations, though. He is mocked because the commies did actually take over the us government.

The realization that in order to actually stop pollution, the us government would need to wage war on china

Httpd is my favorite. So many features and flexibility make it highly satisfying.

Yeah you're right, it's not exclusively just this one thing. They're trying to hide push back on a lot of cultural hotpoints.

It's so bad it is truly astonishing.

Telegram has occasionally done this on my Intel Mac mini.

The companies who make today's lengthy and expensive cancer treatments, are also making the mass-marketed personal care products that have carcinogens inside of them.

Lol did you not see the revelations about what was going on inside of Ventavia, the contractor that did the trial research for pfizer?

They broke all sorts of protocols, covered it up, had it reported to the FDA, who in turn just sat on it.

Yes. Don't RAM-max at your own peril.

I'm not sure why you are lumping those two modes of transport together.

I think you misunderstand - "commercial flight" is referring to flying on one of the large carriers instead of privately. Both of those modes of transportation move large groups of people, together. Many people, one trip. Rail is available in Europe, but not in the US.

Perhaps the reason it is not high on people's lists of things to fix, though, is that "the aviation industry only contributes around 2% of global CO2 emissions, with private air travel representing an even smaller fraction."

They are saying this is an "emergency" though. Is it a good idea to fly any plane during a climate emergency that will purportedly starve all of us? Why aren't these people concerned about starving themselves? This is an emergency and they aren't taking their own precautions seriously.

As a result Apple missed out on the user-generated content wave, which was owned by YouTube and then TikTok. Apple already had some of the basic infrastructure in place with podcasting, but a middle aged outlook meant it missed the (mildly but interestingly) anarchic possibilities.

Agreed. Apple had the ENTIRE digital hub strategy nailed, with fantastic tools.

Or perhaps it's necessary to get things done.

Since when did commercial flight or rail stop being a way to transport people? Oh, right, it's not an option for the elite class because... reasons. They could do all of this without having several dozen private jets flying to the same places.

It's a blame shifting mechanism

It's NOT a blame shifting mechanism, or at least that's not how I'm using it. What I'm saying is that your privileges are being revoked for transportation, theirs are not. You are being shamed for taking a commercial flight, but they are not, even when using private jets.

Finally, consider the rhetoric they are pushing. They are saying that this is an "emergency," meanwhile they are observably NOT acting like it's an emergency. This is a classic case of "they've got theirs," and it's clear that they don't plan on making any sacrifices that result in a lower standard of living for themselves.

Sure, and they could fly first class on commercial to get to that meeting. But they have egos and don't think restrictions apply to them - but ohh this is an "emergency," isn't it?? I thought we were having all hands on deck to stop climate change, right? We're all going to starve and die.

All for one and one for - nah, never mind gas up my second leer jet, Jeeves!

Some of ArsTechnica writing staff has also targeted 6-year-olds, so please spare me.

Discerning Americans think that gulf stream environmentalists flying to conferences in private jets is hypocritical, and that if they actually cared about this issue and it was a serious threat, then they would behave like it (and quit trying to rip up the crust of the earth to mine lithium with child labor as if it was the only solution to this problem).

Instead, this is just GRIFT to pull taxes from public funds into the pockets of plutocrats (hey where is greta this whole scheme sounds like capitalism again) while telling you that YOU need to live with restrictions that the upper class won't be policed on, like the good subject you are.

I'm not trying to be mean spirited, but it was clear that his time was up. That's totally fine. He made some great contributions, but that doesn't mean that he can or will through his last waking moment.

I am willing to welcome anything that helps ruin his credibility that much more.

This continuing to propagate this stereotype is offensive to Irish people, such as myself. Why was this allowed to get posted here, Dang?

Exactly.

Grifters like Al Gore want to use this cause as a money printing machine.

Actual environmentalists want the living standards of everyone _else_ to decline, along with population.

You know western society is in a hard decline when it's been taken over by greedy plutocrats and death cults.

Strong agree about 10.9. I think that was my favorite appearance.

I'm still with her

This is great news for the germ line of humanity

Its funny that I was discussing the last election with someone who said the old "government moves slow" and "checks and balances."

My response: "not this time."

They looked shocked, but everything that has happened since the transfer looks like an operation warp speed towards authoritarianism.

This blog post doesn't do that beautiful machine justice. :-/

You are countering my primary source with a secondary source.

Did you read the letter?

Please at least skim the letter and then form your own conclusion about CNN.

You are incorrect, the FDA only approved extending the emergency use authorization yesterday, but for some reason the media suggested that it was formally approved.

Read for yourself:

You believe that encouraging Americans to be healthy will work?

Yes, however it starts with improving the food preparation options and raising food quality. There is horrible stuff in our food - stuff that is outlawed in Europe because it is a known toxin.

Something has clearly gone wrong in the US and it’s a pretty patronizing position you have taken to put the blame entirely on the public. The government institutions supposed to be watching out for this stuff have failed, and are likely corrupt.

Would you impose a government sanctioned food protocol?

Nah, not needed. This is fixed by a PR campaign and some cultural adjustments.

For example, for some reason the media has been promoting “body positivity” in recent years and encouraging unhealthy lifestyles. Those people who actually bought into that idea were set up in a worse position when this kicked off.

Probably not promoting bad ideas like that would be a good place to start. The commies will whine that it’s “fascist” or not “big hearted” whatever, though.

In the end, I guess only people who can see through the lies will survive, and that’s just the game we’re playing now. That doesn’t mean that we should accept living a society where this is normal.

The less-wrong solution to help citizens is to encourage a healthy diet including weight loss, stop spreading FUD, and to implement the MATH+ protocol for those who do fall seriously ill instead of chiding and coercing a clearly hesitant public into taking an experimental therapeutic treatment (that seems to do less than originally promised as the days tick by) and harsh lockdowns.

Instead we see the opposite, which has little to do with the best interests of the citizens, including the funneling of tax dollars to Pfizer and the rest. The parent comment highlights that and explains what’s actually going on, despite the narrative provided by <compliant> ”experts.”

Ahh, I see we have one with some critical thinking facilities left! Hurry up HN, downvote this guy!!!!

Sadly most don’t want to consider it and just parrot what they’ve been programmed to by the television. The worse part is they think they are righteous or whatever. So delusional.
