Fair, but according to that page, it was 3,4% of total consumption in 2020, 2,8% in 21-22 and 1,7% in 2023. So all in all, pretty good, I'd say. And over 92% of the energy they produce is low carbon or clean according to this

Better than most, I think

Yeah, my bad, I focused too much on the specifics and should've just looked at the meaning itself. In my head theater = restaurant, home tv = home kitchen. Good movie = bourguignon, average movie = noodles. And I had an issue with the latter part. Because to me it's not about the quality of the movie, but the quality of the experience or at least getting something that you can't get at home, same as in a restaurant I'd usually order stuff that I can't make at home. Or that is too complicated to make at home.

Imo, noodles at restaurant are better cause of powerful gas stove which lets you actually fry stuff and not just steam it and gets you the wok hei, bourguignon at home or restaurant won't be that much different since it's just a stew and there's not much you can do in a restaurant to make it better.

So that's why I thought it wasn't a good analogy. But if you just look at the meaning behind it, as I should've done, it's a good analogy.

Can you blame her? Even if those spikes are soft, they must still feel weird. Plus there's 7 of them!

Nah, but it's France, it's cool to hate on France because somehow they've got this reputation for being assholes. And sometimes they are, but there's assholes everywhere. Even in Thailand, the land of smiles, I've had bad experiences with people.

It's the ska effect.

Right, except religion serves no purpose that a non-religious group can't do. Do you see why equating religion and science is pretty silly?

The only purpose of religion is to spread. Everything else is just a means to an end. Just take every good aspect of religion and remove the faith and the god from it. It becomes better. Teach people to do stuff because it is right, not because X god says so.

Yeah, I used to think that about Sikhism as well. Then I did some research. Every religion can and has been abused.

Well, I was just thinking that you can do the bourguignon at home, whereas you can't really have an IMAX at home. Maybe I was just overthinking it, my bad :D sorry

Doesn't say it outright, no, but it says it's vitally important that we reproduce for the good of the species and the economy. What do you call someone that refuses to do something that's so important for everyone?

Yes

There's not even that many comments, something tells me you didn't even check first.
