  • €2.99 or €3.49? Proton VPN's Pricing Test Exposed

    Jump

  • Ah thanks for spelling it out for me. English isn't my mother tongue, so for me both several times shorter and twice shorter felt somehow wrong. So I thought they were equally wrong. Thanks for explaining!

  • OK, either I don't understand you or you don't understand me, because that's what I'm also saying?

    Your example "twice as short" works.

    The original comment wasn't about your example.

    The original comment was "several times shorter".

    As you used twice in place of several times, I also put twice in there to make the difference to yours more obvious.

    Twice shorter isnt the same as twice as short. You talked in your first comment about something different than the other comments talked about. That is what I wanted to express.

  • That's because you wrote something different than the other comment.

    Twice as short != twice shorter

    And the second version is just wrong.

  • What does "Posts older than 365 days will be removed." mean exactly?

    Jump

  • Ah gotcha, now I understand what you mean exactly and I agree.

  • Nope, the one who pays the bills decides. If you disagree that's fine. You are free to host your own instance, where the users can decide how much space they want to take up for saving old pictures.

  • You, because you apparently don't know what Marx said.

  • CO2 overload in blood suggests toxic atmosphere within 50 years

    Jump

  • Well capturing all carbon in the atmosphere would be disastrous, but that is needless pedantry on my side, I know what you mean: reducing CO2 to pre-industrial levels.

    First point: stopping the increase of more CO2

    Second point: planting fast growing trees and plants and algae farms like there is no tomorrow, pun very much intended, then putting the carbon into the ground where it came from instead of letting it rot and be released again. Natures way of binding carbon is more effective then any other way we currently have or are currently researching. To bind carbon chemically you need something to bind it with and there just isn't anything readily available on earth, we would need to create it first by investing energy into it, making it less efficient then nature managed to create via a billion years of evolution.

    Third point: adjusting global society to the changes that are going to happen, since we can't just magic stuff away. It's going to take time and it will not be as easy as it would be if it would have been done 50 years ago. But doing it today is easier than in 50 years. There is no magic solution that will just save us. We need to do it ourselves, so start helping it!

  • Positive nihilism is where its at, buddy!

    Burning to death only a little means it is slower and you live longer. We are all going to die in the end one way or another, so why not be nice to each other, enjoy the roses and leave the world a better place then we found it?

    Every degree is worth fighting for. Don't disregard the work people are doing and try to help in the ways possible to you instead of giving up and relying on a saviour figure.

  • How often do you admit you were wrong?

    Jump

  • I understand you, but try to see it from a different perspective: by admitting your error you are in fact taking their ammunition away! Continue on and if they try to bring it up again and again you can ask them why they can't move on, do they have a problem?

  • Again, no idea how you can get that from my comment.

    Please show me where I said AI can never exist?

    You said it already does exist and I confronted that statement.

    You are really the doomer here. You stated multiple times now, that we should just give up if we don't gobble up the population manipulating machine of the elites instead of working for a fairer and better future.

  • Yeah, but we are not even stopping burning fossil fuels. So in that regard hiding the matches is very much lessening the damage if the arsonists are still continuing to set new fires.

    And you are the doomer. Every degree less is worth fighting for. So fight and don't just give up.

  • Chicken egg problem in my eyes: rich powerful people use mass media and economic hardships of their own making to manipulate people into voting right wing and anti science politicians, who then continue pushing that agenda.

    Its not as we ever had elections really free of influence by the powerful elites.

  • Intelligence requires understanding and comprehension, something a machine that can't count the number of R's in strawberry correctly obviously doesn't have.

    And after seeing how you misunderstand or misinterpret my comments here, it seems you lack it as well.

  • Not at all. And honestly I don't know how you came to that conclusion.

    To stay with your metaphor: we know exactly how to extinguish the fire, but the home owner would need to allow his pool water to be used for it. Which he doesnt, even though he can't use the pool at all when the house has burned down.

    WE KNOW THE ANSWER ALREADY! The people in power just don't like it.
