The good spoons.

It's a purely hypothetical question though. Spoons are all trash

That's a good book! Fascinating that the author was hoping to write about the rise and fall of Tether, but it never quite fell, so he ended up with the climax being SBF's downfall

Reddit stopped being any good when that guy doing a batman/joker role reversal writing prompt stopped posting

Misleading you to what conclusion that you wouldn't otherwise have reached?

I agree, and whilst I don't personally bother with vpns myself because I prefer other solutions, it's one of the things that helps prevent insane UK politicians' bad hottakes on tech becoming law

Edit: an apostrophe

Greatest nation shit is embarrassing. IQ test results from different cultures is interesting. Miss me with your embarrassment, first learn what an IQ test is testing

dunno, this seems a pretty chill instance and your experience mostly matches mine. There are a few knobheads I see around though (I started adding user notes and it's amazing how any agro chat is always one of the same few accounts)

Couldn't agree with you more. In particular, the way most state pensions are structured imply infinite exponential growth. It's gonna be a tough drug to wean off of.

Generic sentiment that Orban is dictatorial coupled with an association of dictatorships and a dependency on the military? That's probably enough to be getting on with, ain't nobody got time to know about everything. But actually not OP, I probably would've drawn the same inferences and am enlightened by you.

You could start Starfox without the extra chip if you did some trick with the cartridge, but there were big black bits on the screen or something? It sorta worked but it sucked. I can't remember any more details than that.

Sadly it's not objectively false, it's merely vague. There's no equivocation whereby it actually specifies that the unit of measure is the individual animal, rather than, say, kg. It's just playing on your assumptions (I did assume biomass fwiw, but who cares).

But anyway, the point made by sheer fucking biomass imbalance is surely the thing to focus on here? Now that we know what it means, and are in agreement that the wording should be clearer, the statistic is still egregious, isn't it? Humans have taken far too much of the world for themselves IMO. Vastly diminishing returns for us, devestatingly larger impact on the environment, the more we push it.

I think biomass is probably more important than sheer number for these comparisons. Although I would also accept 'proportion of world's arable land being used to sustain them' as I suspect the ratios come out pretty similar for obvious reasons.
