People don't have anywhere near enough knowledge of how things work to make their choices based on trust. People aren't getting on the subway because they trust the engineers did a good job; they're doing it because it's what they can afford and they need to get to work.
Similarly, people aren't using Reddit or Adobe or choosing their cars firmware based on trust. People choose what is affordable and convenient.
You know what uses three times the amount of water per acre? Corn. And almonds use about ten times more water than corn.
And we get food out of that input, unlike a golf course where you get nothing of value.
And people have only just started caring about lawns, that use two orders of magnitude more water, fertilizer, and land than golf courses.
Have you seen a golf course before? They're literally lawns.
You typed all that and still don't realize the problem is with the start time of school/work?
Which one to choose is such a non-issue it shouldn't even be discussed.
It's just a number on the clock. The day doesn't actually get any longer or shorter, it doesn't actually get darker any earlier, the only thing that changes is the number on the clock. So adjust your life based on the actual darkness. Start work an hour earlier, go to bed an hour earlier, etc etc and wow it's exactly the same thing as you were doing before.
I just can't believe people even argue about this.
Why are we still doing this? Stupid and unnecessary. Just get rid of it already.
Is this really better than just masturbating?
Gotta use that lossless format so you can pick up all the sound artefacts caused by an imperfect physical format.
See the problem there is that Plex is transcoding instead of just supporting popular audio formats directly.
This really goes to show you can read any meaning you like into art.
See it's actually a depiction of class inequality, where the kings are represented by the fat petulant child who is withholding sustenance, wealth, and the means of production (represented by the fish) from the angry proletariat, represented by the cat.
Id like to hear Cuyp's own interpretation, because I think most art criticism is simply people ascribing their own meaning, like I just did.
He could have paid for it on a credit card and made out better. Damn.
A trick I found with my little cousin was to pretend to think about it for a minute. I'd say "ummm .... " and furrow my brow and be quiet for a few seconds. It creates this little moment of suspense which makes the answer seem more desirable to her.
