I agree with you, but I can’t recognize that I’m using a fallacy and then let it go undisclosed. I’m that kind of nerd… But yes, burn them out of the community with fire or empathy, whichever strategy works fastest.

There’s nerd and then there’s Thanos grindset nerd. I do not acknowledge the latter as being a true subset of the former.

Edit: It was bothering me so I have to point out that I’m making a No True Scotsman Fallacy here. This does not change my statement.

I really don’t get Vox’s need to sensationalize everything. I hope the US battery storage capacity increases by what we need I guess. But a “holy grail in clean energy” is not tech we’ve had for years is increasingly ramping up capacity, “holy grail in clean energy” would be like the sudden commercial practicality of fusion for energy generation.

Batteries are good and cool, but like, why that headline?

Keep it going!

Absolutely!

Underrated comment.

I mean, to people who can see it properly, its a really funny joke, but yeah, its annoying if you can’t.

This sounds right, I feel like I get a lot of conflicting data on China, I just looked at Climate action tracker and they’re expected to peak this year, which is technically 5 years ahead of their schedule.

I’m really hoping we see China peak within the next couple years on fossil, cause that’s going to be one of the big turning points.

I got Centrist Marxist, which is pretty much right.

I should say, that’s not how all Anarchists view it, but as far as I identify as an anarchist, that’s what Anarchism is.

This is why I like to distinguish between Anarchy (Chaos) and Anarchism (Not Chaos, but no Hierarchies.)

I actually really like this analysis

Yes, my understanding is that Anarchists want to break down governments into smaller and smaller bits in order to allow for more and more direct democracy and cooperation.

Is this a safe space to say that my favorite programming language rn is Python?

Yeah, I can agree to that.

I agree with you in that we cannot have a society without some form of state, but I think the idea is that we would have small community governments with more or less direct democracy. Also, bio-essentialism? Really?

This has already been posted here I think

They require federal permits for the installations even if its on private property.

In places where the golf is on the edges of cities, absolutely. It just depends on where the course is and what’s surrounding it. Obviously not all courses are in places where all (or even most) uses make sense. I feel there’s a lot of debate here on what exactly the best use to replace golf with would be, and the answer is always that it depends on location and surrounding context. I think the vast majority of us agree that golf is a waste of space, energy, and water, which serves an almost entirely exclusionary function, and all most of us disagree on is what the best use is to replace it.

Since before we use it for other purposes we need to reclaim it from golf, I think almost everyone in this thread agrees on all policies (about this matter) relevant for essentially the entirety of the foreseeable future, which I think sometimes gets lost in this conversation (and others.)
