Look I want to hate on overwatch because they definitely destroyed that one in pursuit of money, but that Torb at the end sitting with his turret and getting potg hit home hard.
Probably still won’t play, but right in the feels man.
Maybe they can bring it back to fun.
The core focus of early crypto was decentralization, not anonymity. Bitcoin is totally decentralized, but the entire premise is the blockchain contains a permanent irrefutable ledger of transactions. Basically everyone knows if Wallet A paid Wallet B. If you refill your wallet with anything remotely traceable, that means everyone knows YOU paid Wallet B, and similarly if wallet B has any ties to the real world, the lines are easy to connect.
That’s not to say you can’t use it anonymously, but that was not the intent and thus it does anonymity poorly.
I clear them a reasonable amount away from my house, because they may not be litter but they are a fire hazard where I live. But they still get to naturally decompose in dedicated spots.
I get the joke, but also I was shocked to see in the article:
Thunderbird for Android runs on mobile devices running Android 5 and above.
Who out there is still running Lollipop?! That came out over a decade ago. You can’t even get Thunderbird through the Play Store because Google Play Services dropped support for 5.1 back in July. I have so many questions.

The other bits are simply repetitive.
That’s what, ~5 million tons/yr CO2e? That’s on par with the operating emissions of a large business - just for the “air” to fill a single product

Looks like someone out there had the same idea.
They’re currently selling a packaged system for ~$5k, which is a bit pricey, but maybe worth if you’re full time on the van life. Looks like you could probably fit 2 of these units on a typical roof, obstructions permitting. Alternatively you could do one tracker and one flat unit.
It looks like ground based 2-axis tracking systems can be found for ~$500-1k, you’d just need to bring your own expertise to mount it to the roof and program the controls yourself.
Semi-unrelated: others mentioned painting your van white (which you already have) but I’ll raise you one better - consider painting it with an IR-Emissive cooling paint, e.g., https://i2cool.com/
There’s unfortunately few products on the market at this time, but keep your eyes peeled.
I don’t know folks… It kinda seems like carbon capture might be a scam propped up by polluters who just want to get away with a few more years of destroying the environment to maintain business as usual.
But that’s not a burner phone, that’s an off phone.
burner goes from your house, to abortion clinic, to your office, back to your house
Hmm, must be someone else, I don’t recognize this number
-The Government
Because 1) There’s not enough land on the planet, and 2) A big fossil fuel company has a hard time pointing to a specific tree and saying “that one, that’s the plant that’s halfheartedly absorbing my carbon so I can keep polluting”
CCS is putting lipstick on the fossil fuel hogs - they’ll keep it in the news as part of their quest to dodge regulation.
I know little about Proton Pass, but how confident are you they don’t also use a proprietary SDK with their open source apps?
I’m fairly certain its not generally vegan yet, but most “crab” in (cheap) sushi is most definitely not crab. I think it still has some fish in it, but it’s teetering out there on the edge.
There are quiet a few “buttery” things, like Ritz crackers, Pillsbury crescent rolls / flaky layers, and most movie theater “butter” popcorn that are vegan.
This is entirely the point of a cap and trade system. Let the market duke it out over the best path to zero, ratcheting down the amount of credits on the market, so everyone can decide whether to focus on reducing or removing.
Do you hunt pets or hit them with your car to control their population?
it definitely won’t meaningfully change the need to drastically reduce the amount of carbon being emitted
You’re right, but this is also the problem. These oil and gas companies are spending so much on lobbying so they can limp along with lines like:
“We’ll be clean as soon as someone else figures out carbon sequestration”
It’s plastic “recycling” all over again. Yes we do need to spend money on studying these types of solutions, but we need to be VERY careful about letting very powerful industries abuse the system and gaslight their way into continued pollution.
Articles like this are an important reminder - if the major oil lobbyists see this as a good thing, we need to be asking why.
How’s about a patent that expires 5 years after its first use by a billion+ dollar company? 5 years after it is used in more than 10,000 products? 5 years after its licensing has yielded over $1M in profit? 5 years after spending over $100k on advertising? 5 years after your first major court settlement?
I think there are ways to protect individual innovators but also lessen patent abuse
This is an ego fluffer app, not a scientific study. The accuracy is “good enough” to give you a rough idea of your performance, and if youre really into optimizing WPM, give you a way to track progress or the impacts of using different keyboards.
Getting a high score doesn’t actually mean anything except you probably use your phone too much.
