Not practically. You'd have to be replacing the trees faster than you chop them down just to account for the energy(and thus carbon) used to chop them and process them. Then there's the fact that decomposition will also release the carbon, so you HAVE to use the lumber for stuff that is intended to last at least as long the tree grew, or else that tree is still a net negative.

No, you can't. There are trillions of trees on earth and the impact they have on carbon emissions is relatively minimal, planting a forest or even many forests isn't going to cut it.

Not to mention that for trees to be an at all viable long term carbon capture method, you can't ever cut those trees down. If we can't leave the fucking Amazon alone, what makes you think we won't chop up that artificial forest in 50 years?

This is the same issue with kelp. Kelp has a ton of uses, and is an even better carbon sink than trees are, but to be a carbon sink you have to forgo all of those other uses because you have to literally sink the kelp to the bottom of the ocean and leave it there, because actually using it for anything just rereleases the carbon.

Glad I'm not the only one

They might require it for crossplay or give some goodies for linking, but there's no fucking way they try to make it retroactively mandatory just to play at all again. After this statement, there would be ACTUAL grounds for a class action lawsuit if they did.

When MLK did sit-ins, they didn’t destroy property and graffiti walls and the like. It’s not the same

You're an ignorant fool if you truly think MLK would be on anyone's side in this situation except the protestors.

I'm autistic, this made me mad as a kid too.

Pretty sure you can get an NACS adapter now, but otherwise non Tesla vehicles pre-equiped with a NACS port are due to arrive next year.

Jokes on them, ublock origin still works just fine for me.

If it takes over the video it would be. I pause YT videos all the time to read something that didn't stay on screen long enough.

Buy a SteamDeck and emulate instead lmao

Sure, but I don't need reviews for that stuff. I would've already seen those when they were actually, y'know, new.

The bleeding edge stuff isn't stuff I personally need nor can afford. I just like learning about the newest and greatest tech.

I'm a computer guy, 90% of the things I'm gonna wanna see reviews for are ABSOLUTELY things where older means worse. A review of a year+ old cpu, for example, is absolutely meaningless to me, I wanna see how good the bleeding edge stuff performs.
