It’s only fine until those sulfates react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulphuric acid. That stuff rains back down and contributes to ocean acidification which is causing serious harm to all sorts of marine ecosystems.

- Comment on This researcher wants to replace your brain, little by little. The US government just hired a researcher who thinks we can beat aging with fresh cloned bodies and brain updates. 1 month ago:
I hate to break it to you, but our meat brains don’t even have continuity of consciousness. We become unconscious all the time. The only real constant is the “hardware” our consciousness emerges from, but even that is always changing.

At least horse armor was good for the memes. This is so bland no one even cares to meme about it.
- Comment on Hell Is Us - Extended Gameplay Video 1 month ago:
TBH, I really wish he would’ve just shut up and let the gameplay breathe for a while. They started the showcase explaining how this game isn’t going to hold your hand, but then spent the next fifteen minutes over-explaining every little detail, lol

- Comment on Witchfire is now available on Steam 1 month ago:
Epic vs Steam isn’t much of a turf war as far as the fans are concerned. Everyone universally hates the Epic Games Store and loves Steam. The only reason EGS has so many timed exclusive is because Epic pays out the nose for them.

This appears to only cover mobile games. I’d love to see something similar for PC/console releases…

In very next line, it says the distance is 4.37 lightyears away… which is also wrong, lol
For anyone wondering, the actual correct answer is about 4.25 lightyears or about 40 trillion kilometers.
- Comment on Google and Microsoft consume more power than some countries 4 months ago:
While massive energy usage means a substantial environmental impact for these tech giants, it should be noted that Google and Microsoft also generate more money than many countries. Furthermore, companies like Intel, Google, and Microsoft lead renewable energy adoption within the industry.
So fucking what? That’s like excusing a mass-murderer because he’s rich and he promised to “not kill quite as many people in the future.”
What a useless and pandering equivocation.

- Comment on Big Tech to EU: "Drop Dead" 5 months ago:
I think in the end it all comes down to putting power back into the hands of regulators — power that corporate America has been slowly and steadily eroding for the last 40 years.
A more powerful regulatory state could start enforcing the anti-trust laws we already have on the books by breaking up the massive tech monopolies. Once that’s done, new regulations and new legislation against anti-consumer practices are needed, but those will only work if the punishments scale high enough to work as an actual deterrent against the multi-billion dollar tech giants.
Of course, we’d also need massive, MASSIVE campaign finance and lobbying reforms so that monied interested aren’t able to sabotage the system all over again.
Or we could just bring back the guillotine… that would probably do the trick too.

Sure, because he’s been paid in stock options. It’s not like the guy has been working for free.
- Comment on Republicans are pulling out all the stops to reverse EV adoption 6 months ago:
Then why is he asking shareholders to approve a $56 billion personal pay package? Seems kinda steep for a guy who isn’t really present…

Elon Musk, the CEO of company, has next to nothing to do with Tesla?

Is this why Elon is working so hard to run Tesla into the ground? 5d chess, something something…

- Comment on BepiColombo Detects Oxygen and Carbon Ions in Magnetosphere of Venus 7 months ago:
In this case, the carbon and oxygen coming from a much more mundane source: the solar wind.
When high-energy particles from the solar wind collide with molecules in Venus’ upper atmosphere, they carry enough energy to break some of those molecules into their constituent atoms. Since the Venusian atmosphere is almost entirely CO2, you should expect the solar wind to generate a lot of C and O ions — which is exactly what we’ve now observed!
