I think its more then just the lack of wide usage of open standards. Centralization was what sunk the ship. And it did so for a reason. Mailinglists became twitter, Forums became subreddits and dont even get me started on youtube and facebo

You dont get what I said. I said, despite the effects on health. I am not arguing that smoking is not unhealthy. Its not an either or question between public health issue and moral question. Smoking is bad for you. It will likely kill you.

A bit unrelated, but I recently learned about the Hippos from Pablo Escobars private zoo. Three Hippos escaped (or were let go) during the closure of his zoo and escaped into the wild. Without any natural enemies and a lack of droughts, the

Part time with a fixed schedule works the same way. With flexible hours the average working hours per day are calculated. So if you work for 40 hours a month, a sick day gets you around 2 hours of sick leave. edit: I think I got you now, yo

You take a separate additional sick leave as a parent with a sick child in Germany. Working from home is something the employee can do to mitigate his absence. Each parent gets 10 days per year with one kid and up to 25 with multiple kids.

I hadnt heard this point of view yet. I never saw a desert as something worth preserving, quite the contrary actually. Afforestation projects to green deserts seem absolutely wonderful. Why do you think its a biome worth preserving? Its pla

I am aware of that, but that as a worst case would be completely acceptable in my eyes as it prevents the death of so many people. A chain reaction of multiple other species going extinct, how ever realistic this is, would still be alot bet
