The article claims that a PR campaign "popularized" the term "carbon footprint" in 2000. That's pretty vague and I'm not going to dispute it. The article doesn't claim BP coined the phrase. In German, it&#

Suicide is illegal in some jurisdictions. It matters more than you seem to think, because there's prosecution of attempted suicide as well as of assisting suicide (which can also be illegal if suicide itself is not).

Any widget made in Europe ... will now become even more expensive to make. Sure, but that's always the case. The question is, how much more expensive. And that's going to vary a lot depending on how much the natural gas and elec

Tucows used to be such a quality site. Here's their 1999 listing for download managers (themselves pretty much obsolete unless you're connecting from an oil rig): http://web.archive.org/web/19981202201711&#x2F

It's real easy when your partner does all the work. Agreed. The term partner is really not what men are looking for. We’re looking for a wife— take care of my house and children, be attractive and cook. If you’re intelligent more the

It's Linux software. Support for other operating systems is an afterthought. You guys have to deal with Adobe, or use a less advanced alternative.

First time I'm hearing this. I think Sony owners make up a sizable portion of the user base. I never had an issue with the RAWs from an a6300 and another entry level Sony mirrorless. Though I never used anything other than dt, so maybe

We already have diet coke imitating a drink that has sugar as a fundamental taste. I was going to say people aren't freaking out about that, but they probably were back when diet sodas were introduced. It's even called Coke. Vegan

You hate the cruelty of farming animals for food, but you support the cruelty of farming vegetables for food Probably because they think one is worse than the other. I think flipping somebody off and hitting them in the face is both not v

In Germany, the market share of both kinds of casings is about the same, according to a large retailer. I wouldn't be surprised if France veers more towards the traditional side. https://www.edeka.de/ernaehrung/exp

How significant is it as a source of commercial fertilizer? A rounding error, from what I can tell. An article on the situation in Germany gives it the potential to replace 5% of phosphate, if all of the bonemeal was used, and currently, ba

You can reduce the number of cars without reducing the number of people. Human beings can, in fact, exist without a car. We can also reduce the amount of livestock we keep without reducing the number of people, by consuming less of it. This

Wow. Is that intelligible to native speakers? I have a very hard time decoding it. Having it read out with the right intonation makes it a lot easier.

You can tax air travel to encourage travel by other means where applicable, or alternatives for work trips, or local tourism, or slow tourism, all kinds of things. Air travel itself may be defining and I don't envision getting rid of i

Some air travel may be essential to civilization, most of it isn't. We don't really have a way to determine which is which on a societal level. The best we can do is price in the externalities (and deal with income disparity, but

In Germany, it's a three year apprenticeship. You get paid a (rather low) wage during that time. As far as I know, you're not allowed to do the job without completing the apprenticeship. https://www.ausbildung.de/b
