If that is the case, then sure, do so. But no effort is being made. And in the case of disposables, they can be made to have less impact on the environment, in both production and decomposition stages.

> It wasn’t impossible before 1910, just likely more difficult to attain. Find that hard to believe. It's not like there were meaningful economic restrictions from eating enough calories to get fat prior to 1910. More likely, peopl

Actually had to use WiFi calling yesterday and it just didn't work on my main #. Only my app based phone # (Google Voice) worked! That was a really unpleasant discovery since I had no cell service. Definitely affirms what you are say

What makes Lincoln a lunatic? It's not sporting to only present bait as your argument. Just go ahead and outline what you are trying to say.

WiFi calling is the answer.

That's not moving the goalposts. It's context. You want to ignore the fact that Trump was blaming China as a whole for coronavirus? It's racism to blame the coronavirus on Chinese people. So you want to tell me you are surpr

If you ban travel from China but not Chinese nationals, then what's the point? Nothing stops people from China from flying to Europe and then the US. Nothing. Yes, it was racism. Yes, it was pointless. Do you want to continue this di

Just promote education and economic opportunity for women. They will consequently have less kids and later in life.

Fine, but a cultural shift away from eating meat for 3 meals a day would have a big impact and how does that happen except at an individual level?

That's a pretty big "if" in your statement. I thought HN was better than this.

Not true. Calories are not created equally in terms of environmental impact.

How many people working in a restaurant get tips? I am sure there are winners and losers, but on the balance, paying a fair wage beats tipping.

It would be a lot easier to just make the point you are trying to make.

Have you tried researching the long term effects of these medications? There is plenty of scientific literature available. Be sure to consider the age which the treatment starts. A major aspect of concern for all drug use is how it affect

I would say drugging young kids with stimulants that have lifelong dependency implications as a kind of sacrifice for the greater good of the larger class is just morally reprehensible. Let's keep treatment focused on healing the indiv

I just report my card as stolen and call it a day, but I have noticed sometimes it does not stop recurring payments.

I just went to Canada on Saturday. First time. I was interrogated for 3 hours. Apparently it looks bad if you travel 12 hours to cross the border to go on a date.

I wonder how they get access to this information. It didn't even seem like the US govt is coordinated enough between the different states to reliably catch this.

They didn't reject them with guns. Also I don't believe statistics exist for which states have more guns than others. And I also don't think your comment has any kind of real basis in research as to correlation between COVID

Not to one up, but Dell is even better. You can extend the warranty after it has expired! You can re-up but they have a clause that you must wait 30 days before making an accidental damage claim (and it cannot have happened during the tim

The cost of making goods is extremely cheap and will only go down as the cost of energy decreases. This is not an ideological statement. ETA: HN says I am replying too quickly. here is my reply to the replies: argue against what I wrote.

So who are these people that take the "both" perspective because that does not represent the conservative ideology at all -- which is based upon "personal responsibility" aka you get what you deserve. There is no call f

The US has per capita healthcare spending that is multiple times that of their peers in the western world.

> I didn't even do my performance self review, and I wrote a poem instead. It's not just the brazenness of the act, it's the fact you made your defiance into art that I really respect.
