listen I know this barely has to do with anything but I simply can't not share this random fact

Did you know that this image everyone uses as a clip art for colonialism is called "Rhodes Colossus" and it was originally drawn for an 1892 satirical article about British colonialist Cecil Rhodes who planned to lay down railroad and telegraph lines across Africa, from Cape to Cairo (insanely hard task at the time).

The joke was that colonizers viewed themselves as gods and had a satirical verse about Cecil (who was a major asshole in case you weren't sure). But as often goes satire transcended itself and became the image for colonialism.

and it rules

I salute authentic human weirdness

yea

(the video is a bit clickbaity at the beginning but makes really good overview of the problem)

if you're smart enough to know how dumb you are, you're not that dumb.

or something idk

Title is dumb, the article itself is fine

It found that metered-dose inhalers were the most harmful to the environment, accounting for 98% of emissions over the 10-year period. Metered-dose inhalers contain hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) propellants, which are potent greenhouse gases that were widely used in products such as aerosol sprays.

"On the upside, there is a tremendous opportunity to make changes that protect both patients and the planet by utilizing lower-emission alternatives."

"A key first step to driving change is understanding the true scale of the problem," Feldman said. "From there, we can identify what's fueling these emissions and develop targeted strategies to reduce them—benefiting both patients and the environment."

and I could use the money, my sticker budget is running low. you're right it's a win-win

looks at those waists

do these outfits come with one of those plastic medical boxes where you can store your internal organs for the evening?..

The problem since has been solved, I was replying to your initial position of it never bothering normal people, which is incorrect

"there you go" as in "thank you for explaining why a forced unexpected update from your os in the middle of your work could bother you"?

you're welcome

I just don't trust major updates not to break something (with good reasons). I have to have a working pc, so I update when I have half an hour of free time to install and roll back if need be.

But if you're a normal person who shuts down their PC on a regular basis, the updates literally *never* bother you

That's just not true. I never had a habit of having my pc run 24/7, and windows updates bothered me immensely since win 7
