  • Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty Ads

  • And mass sharing of images/videos which has made it so much easier to connect people, specifically in one case I saw today of someone on Telegram sharing child porn. How do you even put the cat back in the box?

  • Sigh... and how would you like to quantify that when there are so many factors?

    Obstructing traffic is not an effective means of protest. Target actual agents and entities associated with the oil industry, not the victims.

    They are effective and bring about awareness among other things.

  • I am telling you when their trend started. Norway's consumption has not increased, it is down on 2018, as I said. It had a slight decline in 2023 (the increase between 2020 and 2022 is when people stopped driving during COVID then came back to restart its downward trend).

    Japan’s decline since then is commensurate with its population decline.

    Actually no, if you know what commensurate means. The population has dropped around 4% since 2008, yet oil consumption has been decreasing since 1996.

    Germany is similar in terms of consumption, Sweden likewise.

  • If that is the only metric you are looking it, kind of. It slumped during COVID and has looked like it's tailing off somewhat. Without tax breaks, subsidies and support for other forms of transport, say, we will not shake our dependence.

    But, we can look at specific countries and see if those things have helped on a national scale, like Norway, for example, which has seen consumption decline since 2018. And Sweden. And Japan. And Germany. And...

  • I can cite many news articles which show that protesting in this way is more effective.

  • Blocking roads in protest has proven effective at exactly one thing: Increasing the enforcement and penalties for jaywalking.

    Well... no.

  • ...but you're not banned. Are you pre-emptively complaining about something you think will happen? It hasn't, so, err... okay?

    How much of this conversation is just hallucination?

  • That does sound familiar; I think I read it eight years ago so my memory is very patchy (to the extent I used the show to cover what I thought happened!).

    Do us all a favour and take your own advice instead of picking on people.

  • I wonder if adhd should even be considered something that you get diagnosed with.

    What are you on about? It sounds like you don't know what ADHD actually is and should stop talking as if you do.
