Better lay off another thousand people, just for good measure

In contrast to stuff like AI training or crypto, chips at least fulfill an actually useful function, so I don’t see the issue with their manufacturing consuming a lot of energy. Or should we compare the same for cars or medicine?

I’d put building cathedrals and pyramids more on slaves than worship of deity

Neither where build by slaves.

Then check the verb in your title. Using is not making. And ‘Kindle’ is used like Kleenex, as a generic term for eBook readers.

Step 1: Buy a Kindle on Amazon…

You gotta be kidding me

The only thing we’re going to regret, in fact already are, is sucking up to them for the last decades, while allowing them to steal every bit of manufacturing know how we had for some cheap labor

Kotlin has not, and, and or utility functions as well

One can hope

Yeah, I noticed that too. Makes it impossible for your mouse to stay in the gutter to avoid auto play

I can recommend the Last Week Tonight Episode about just this topic. At least in the US, there’s basically no difference

Because outside of the EU all browsers are just safari cosplaying. Inside EU at least Firefox is still just safari

I guess Japans geography allows for a lot more undeveloped regions where wild animal can thrive and live without bothering anyone. Here we mostly have flat land and due to the heavy settling for almost 2000 years there’s little untouched nature left.

Every time a bear decides to cross the border (usually in bavaria) it gets declared a ‘Problembär’ and is shot :shrug:, but we do have wolves again, which is cool, although the conservative (lol) forces are trying to get rid of those too already

Lol, every time I read something like this I am again thankful for the rather tame fauna found here in Germany. The only thing that might kill you are wild boars

Didn’t know Japan had venomous animals at all

So you moved to Australia? :D

Remind me again why you live where you do?

Doesn’t that leave hard little bamboo blades sticking out at grass level, waiting to stab you into the feet when you walk barefoot?

Could we not link to this nazi enabling platform?

As @Encrypt-Keeper put it so well:

Trees are trees, but trees aren’t forests.

Forests are what’s actually worth prtotecting. This is not different from a field of corn. There is no ecological value to a farm of pine trees. If you ever walked in one, you would know that.
