   If you only ever look at the home page as a non-logged-in user, or if you don't subscribe to subreddits I can see why you'd think that. There are awesome groups on a whole range of topics. Subscribe to some of those and suddenly

   I love the old Reddit design. It's a sea of mostly text with a few flair images but it really works. For me it's always been really readable and a joy to use. If they take it away I'll probably just stop using the site.

    This is true. I lived near a wasabi field for a time and the farmer used to give me a few roots once in awhile. If you grate it yourself it's green but not that green.

    Can't believe I'm speaking in support of McD here but last time I went the only plastic was the straws and cup lids - everything else was paper.

    Are there externalities to coal and other fossil fuel extraction and consumption?

    Are all those creatures helped by climate change? What about the environmental devastation caused by coal mining and fossil fuel burning? Just putting up a bunch of panels is a lot lighter on the ecology of the area.

    Looks interesting but it depends on a bunch of other tools that are not listed and are not installed by the setup script.

    The article notes that the study used twenty-year-old archival data from the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). It's good to keep that stuff around, organized so that you can find and use it.

    Do you have a clear understanding of the "causes of peace" that you'd like to share with us? Regardless, did you read any of the newsletters to give you a basis for your claims? > It’s just hypocritical anyway... Yeah, we
