I hope someone viciously kills him before it can happen.
Like, to be clear I am not threatening or anything, but no such thing as a trillionaire should exist, and it’s absolutely something that should be punished.
There is no moral way to get there.
Don’t worry, Project 2025 will make sure the poor 1% aren’t persecuted in such a manner ever again.
Bonfires are not fireworks. Guy Fawkes Night is infamously filled with tons of bonfires.
The fact you described it as “the show” is absolutely the problem in a nutshell. This isn’t a film, or a film series, it’s a fucking commitment. At least with Avatar, they’re years apart and the most visually stunning graphics on the planet. Or with LOTR these are epic stories and sagas.
What is the saga of the American rancher Mr. Costner? I need to understand.
I just learned that it’s a four part film series.
3 hours each
It ls based on the westward expansion of America, a period that is covered to death in media already.
It presents no unique or compelling twist or angle on this in the trailers.
It presents not amazing visual that can only be enjoyed in a theater instead of watching this at home like the History Channel.
I like Kevin Costner, I like westerns, I like history. I pretty much am the target audience. But when I was it was going to be at least 12 hours of content spread over the next 2-3 years, and I still had no hook as to why I should watch this over The Last of the Mohicans or Tombstone or any number of narratives in similar settings. It all feels incredibly low energy.
Giant ceremonial bonfires /= fireworks, for one. Tons of random shit can go into bonfires beyond just wood, the wood is of incredibly differing quality and chemical treatments, and bonfires by their nature a low to the ground and intended to last for at minimum an hour or they’re not worth making.
This is not the same discussion as fireworks. It’s also still not long term effects, as the site warns of poor air quality in the days that follow the giant bonfires if there is no wind or weather, but it does dissipate either way, not that this event gives everyone cancer or something.
The question was about fireworks. And yea, fireworks are an afterthought still. Compared to Guy Fawkes Night maybe even more of an afterthought. Guy Fawkes Night and 4th of July still hardly register on the global scale of CO2 and GHG outputs.
It’s not nothing, but 1% goes to show just how much is no5 made by the giant 1 day full of sky explosions, and how likely 70-80% is from transport and energy sector.
Eliminating all fireworks from earth and banning them tomorrow would have a near 0 impact on anything, and be completely erased if a coal plant runs an extra day or two.
Fireworks are like. 000000000000001% of a concern for GHG.
You shut down a coal plant for 1 days because you switched to solar temporarily and you probably offset the output.
They absolutely can. This just isn’t really one of them. Ads in the 90s all treated women as sex objects to be “played”. And this ad isnt wild in that regard, but you’re kidding yourself if you think they didn’t choose that angle and lighting deliberately.
Said to another commenter as well, but listen I’m not going to respond to a woman saying an ad is gross and off putting by telling her to lighten up.

“Playstation is a drug”
It’s edgy marketing. You’re not wrong it’s also clearly sexualizing her, but they’re pushing a console like a party drug.
On the one hand, it’s a very dated ad, on the other I really wish marketing companies would do weird shit like this more. Just maybe with a bit less sex appeal?
How anti-semetic of them. Don’t they know you can’t do that?
Yo if you are doing COBOL systems maintenance for 90k you arent charging enough.
That’s all this meme means. Consultants on COBOL maintenance can make 90k in a week. This is not the area where companies pinch pennies.
What does “the politically correct line” mean to you though? That’s a very loaded phrase and you seem to be indicating that you want to say stuff that is “controversial” without expressing any of it.
Like, Gender Dysphoria is a nuanced topic and can be felt in cis people, but there is a strong, STRONG anti-Trans effort to point at that and say “ah hah! See!” as if it somehow invalidates trans experiences.
That’s why moderation is so harsh, because often the nuance becomes a tiny crack that actual bigots will pounce on, and argue in bad faith. I mean this sincerely, I’m an audience of one but if you are sincerely just having questions I’d be happy to speak via DM.
But if the “politically incorrect” feeling is “I don’t think my kid is really dysphoric just confused”, that is a large part why spaces stop such discussion. Note i am not saying this is you, but as an example. This example focuses on invalidating how the child feels and dismissing it as something else. Which can be very dangerous.
Anyways, my offer to talk stands.
Your partner is a very lucky person.
Yes. Because Microsoft lost an entire gigantic anti-trust case over building the Browser into the OS.
Of course it loaded faster when MS poisoning the well of open web standards with embrace and extend.
And we have the records to prove this.
What a horseshit excuse: add 6 screws on your backplate, give it a frame with center glass, add a grommet. Give a torque setting for the screws to have a good seal in your instructions. L
Done.
Samsung did this shit years ago in a phone with a replaceable plastic back.
Connect isn’t charging a subscription or lifetime purchase cost. Or injecting ads.
Prop guns for cosplay gonna get a lot more difficult for now reason if this passes.
