I didn’t realize before, but now I want this too! Fantastic idea.
- Comment on Which unplayed game in your library are you most looking forward to playing eventually? 1 month ago:
When you get around to HZD, the DLC Frozen Wilds and Horizon: Forbidden West are highly recommended. I’m halfway through the second and it’s so amazing.
- Comment on Headlamp tech that doesn’t blind oncoming drivers—where is it? 1 month ago:
The industry’s lobby is so pervasive that any regulation will be fought, no matter how small. I don’t know what it’s going to take to face the numerous harms that we have to address when it comes to cars and driving, but if the industry and regulators won’t care about human health and environmental harms, it’s just going to keep being bad.

Hilariously, I have about the same number saved. It’s all kinds of places that I’ve been, want to go to, or just want to keep saved as reference, from all over the world. They just kinda built up over the years and I’m thankful for this thread because I want to make the switch.

I really appreciate your points and this comparison, but the pictures are giving me Attack on Titan vibes lol

Such a good blog post. It covers so much important information in an entertainingly snarky tone.

This comment isn’t helpful, but I really love Demon’s Tilt. I appreciate this post and the suggestions here!
- Comment on Palestinians living abroad have accused Microsoft of closing their email accounts without warning - cutting them off from crucial online services 4 months ago:
The fact that so many international companies have decided to side with a major aggressor during this terrible event in history is one of the most awful things I didn’t expect to witness. We all know that big business and money shapes world politics, but damn… This is straight up horrible. It could be any of us for any reason moving forward.
- Comment on Inside the 'Nightmare' Health Crisis of a Texas Bitcoin Town 4 months ago:
There is a procedure in place for granting permits to industry like this in every state. In New York, for example, when a potential site is selected, the business must apply for the permit to build and goes through a process of reviewing environmental and human harms in the area based on their operations. They are also required to notify residents and hold public participation events to ensure residents can ask questions about the development. “Good neighbor laws” are sorely needed in Texas, but the state would never allow that cause there’s no money to be made in protecting the people and the planet.

Exactly all of this.

- Comment on German carmaker Volkswagen says forced labour in one of its sub-supplier's plants in China was not identified as 'no full supply chain transparency exists' 5 months ago:
Agreed. In essence, the cost of doing business is ensuring your supply chain is lawful and morally sound. This lack of respect for humanity as a practice runs rampant because capitalism calls for nothing less than infinite growth and ever increasing profit. Imo, if you can’t afford to do business humanely, you shouldn’t be allowed to be in business.
- Comment on How G.M. Tricked Millions of Drivers Into Being Spied On (Including Me) 6 months ago:
I drove one of these recently as a rental, and told my partner that they were tracking our every move to send to our insurance company. Didn’t believe me, so thank you for this article! I’ll always feel like I’m being watched and recorded in new cars. I don’t even like having personal conversations in them for fear of a potential active mic somewhere…
- Comment on The race to decarbonise the world’s economy risks repeating the mistakes of the colonial era by building industries on forced and child labour, rights advocate warns 7 months ago:
Imo, if we want ethical and green, then billionaires should be taxed more heavily for the good of us all.
