After nearly two years of waiting for paperwork to be reviewed by CIS and Department of State and for an appointment at the consulate, my partner received the entry visa and passport in the mail only three days ago. I am truly sorry for any

Certainly a court challenge would pit the 1st Amendment rights of the consumer against that of a corporation. Something along the lines of citizens have the right of freedom of expression that is not accumulated and traded. In a sane world,

It's not on you exclusively, but, as a consumer, you have purchasing power. If you don't like the coffee your local shop serves you, you stop going there, right? As long as everyone cops out, businesses will continue down this pat

We know better now. In many places, the forests demolished for palm oil contain invaluable biodiversity. It's not that Europe shouldn't be reforested, but proper incentive structures have to be implemented to prevent further enclo

89.3 The Current -- based out of Minneapolis -- has a great selection. Totally independent. Not all the DJs play the same music, which is a double-edged sword, but you can count on healthy variety of new and old and many genres. https:&#x2

Redacted has filled the gap. Orpheus too. Though maybe the webs aren't as fully developed as WCD's came to be, these sites are definitely maturing in the same way. https://interviewfor.red/en/index.html

Nah bro. I did my graduate studies and work in the field of environmental policy. You are speaking for yourself when you say humanity is incapable because that requires individual change. Oddly, that’s exactly what climate deniers sound lik

Trying to control nature will never work out in humanity's favor. That is precisely the same hubris that has landed us in this mess. Once we surrender to the notion that we will capitalize on nature's response to our unwieldly use

We don't have decades to wait for building stocks to re-absorb the expelled CO2. (Setting aside concrete carbonation, there are better materials to use for building construction. Concrete is a poor insulator, and sourcing other materia

Fair point, that probably lowers the odds of recognition a bit, but the UA stands out because of the multiple variables that it reports in one header. At least when I ran Panopticlick a few times with various configurations, that was always

You're assuming that trackers account for a changing UA. Are there trackers doing that? I suppose a deliberate or malicious attempt to identify me and isolate my machine could account for a randomly spoofed UA. But if I am trying to hi
