Yes, but let's try to achieve that without state ownership of the means.

Cities asking residents to use less power is largely due to the fact that most cities have no direct policy power to regulate electricity use. Electricity use is primarily the domain of state/provider policy. Cities asking residents to lower power usage is thereby an ask for residents to collectively work to avoid brown/black out situations for the collective good. Messaging like this without a similar ask to the tech/industrial community would still be short sighted at best.

I think that's at the University of Waterloo - they would routinely close entrances due to aggressive geese.

It's not the publishers paying the researcher's salaries, they're mostly paid by public institutions and receive funding from government grants. If anything, bl researcher pay structure should result in open access publication.

The world would be a much better place if we placed nature'at least at the same level of care as we place generalized human need.

I can pirate very easily too - probably saved me about $3k in game costs alone while still having a way larger legit library than 99% of Consol owners

This isn't a new concern, just more specificity about how the shut down of global deep water convection currents is occurring. We're fucked, but it's not a "new" fucked - just another piece of the existing fucked humanity has largely decided isn't as important as the match of capitalist profits.

They literally started their math is based on voting population in their post. Sure, this doesn't account for cheating, but the Dems are also making headway on minimizing gerrymandering in a lot of swing states.

How much "space" does one person, or even a family need? When you were in those cities, where did you stay? There is a big difference between visiting a downtown core and living in a near-to-downtown neighborhood. Still not everyone's cup of tea, sure, but if we all lived in an acre property we would collectively go bankrupt from infrastructure costs alone.

When does the whole second amendment kick in and people start using it to defend against authoritarian governments?

He's built a $100,000 gaming desk in the past year, as if he couldn't see a market for an expensive cooler block.
