Thank you!

Thank you!

I suspect it’s also so the rich assholes can pretend to be in touch with society by occasionally “getting the poor people eating experience” (at a premium of course). They emulate classic burger joints and diners while being ten times more expensive with none of the charm.

I don’t associate this with any particular city, but with the rich neighbourhoods in every city, particularly the recently rich neighbourhoods built from gentrification and forcing the existing poor residents out. An upscale “urban eatery” is a sure sign that the neighbourhood is destroyed.

And you just know that this is the type of restaurant to throw out still edible food in a dumpster and then call the cops when starving people try to take stuff from the dumpster.

Honestly, they might even consider it fortunate that the company showed them it’s cards now and not when they’re their actual employer. Dodged a bullet.

Thank you! Regardless of the outcome I will update the main post with my findings in hopes giving anyone else in the same position some more info.

I’m running Fedora 39 KDE. I think I’m going to see what the file metadata of my other Fedora systems look like and try to replicate that. Worst case I just reinstall. At this point I’m a little curious how the system will react.

With the French guy on this. Weed is expensive even when legal, and if it’s not, you really don’t want to share it with any rando because you can get pegged for distribution.

It helps if and only if the glucose stays as glucose and is not metabolized. Wood is a good application of this, as its cellulose fibers are made of glucose, in a form that is very stable and can stay locked away for a long time (especially if the tree is alive as it does not metabolize the glucose in its own wood and has anti-predation adaptations that actively guard it against other organisms). However, if the glucose decomposes, i.e. is metabolized, it is converted either directly to CO2 or into other compounds that eventually end up as CO2, essentially returning the captured carbon back to the atmosphere.

I was gonna write something political but nah.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon are some of the best Pokemon games, better than most of the (especially newer) main series games. I started with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon so I may be biased though.

Abso-fucking-lutely. Time and time and time again proprietary technology fucks us over, this is no different.

SpaceX actually makes pretty good stuff. The sad thing is that Elon keeps trying to take credit for it even though it was the scientists, engineers and laborers who did the real work.

You have Rust.

Forget rescuing the princess, that’s unsafe. Lock her down even more!

I assume they mean how long many old growth forests have been growing (though even then thousands of years is on the younger end), not the time it took for trees to evolve.

What is wrong with you Carl?

It’s expensive and has only the advantage of catching CO2

It doesn’t even do that well. Algae have short lifespans and when they decompose, the CO2 will go right back into the atmosphere. It’s the same reason you can’t reasonably capture CO2 with small plants like grasses, nor does the carbon inside you count as captured. The reason trees “capture CO2” is because trees live for a long time and wood decomposes very slowly, and therefore keep its carbon locked in the wood for a long time. The point of capturing carbon is you take it out of circulation for as long as possible.

There are ways to have algae capture carbon, but they are fairly involved (read: very expensive) processes whose scalability is still uncertain. Certainly not a tank in the street.
