This article is pretty close to pure clip bait and possible just media spin from Greenpeace, other more reputable articles don't even mention Greenpeace and highlight a lot of local support against the rice. https://www.isaaa.org/blog/entry/default.asp?BlogDate=5/8/2024

At least for the public at large such methods aren't practical (not enough space to raise enough meat) and not able to produce meat at a cost the general public could afford.

It's also still horrible to butcher the animals, I don't consider any such killing to be humane. They are also killed at a rather young age, barely even adult just max size. You also have the forced pregnancy of the animals and odds are the pigs are still crated after giving birth, the cow calves separated from their mothers, etc.

Using Teams always reminds me that Microsoft bought Skype for billions, ruined it and developed a shifty replacement.

As someone that was born and raised, and still lives in a super majority pro Trump part of the rural South, boy is this article true. I can't begin to explain the rabid love so many have for Trump and the republican party.

I was eating with some family at a restaurant and got to listen to them railing about the public schools grooming kids and letting them read porn. Even pointing out that they literally know the local teachers and go to church with them. Asking who is supposed to be doing what they are claiming gets absolutely nowhere.

To be fair all guys like this remember is that we dropped nukes on Japan and the war ended. That's the depth of the thought process. Maybe also that we didn't drop nukes on Vietnam and we lost. That sounds about right for that guy's age.

Was he just trying to avoid being drafted into fighting? I couldn't pull up the link, it just gives me an error.

What are they even saying? Plasma Moon Live X-ray, WTF? The pictures are of the moon, I don't understand what they are saying? The Moon is fake and the Earth is flat?

So many people find it just hilariously funny that it's kind of freaky. It looks like the dumbest show but for years I've heard people just gush about how good it is.

I would argue that Carter was, he was even pro solar energy back during his presidency. He got screwed by the whiplash from previous administrations economic policy and got all the blame, so that really framed his time in office. It's only recently that people have really started looking at his tenure differently.

You're fooling yourself if you think the Israeli military actually knows where Hamas is and is target bombing. If they knew where Hamas bomb factories and the like were, then they would have bombed them before the attack. Israel is just bombing random targets. Like apparently several thousand strikes, some serious WW2 level bombardment. Seems much more likely such factories would be underground.

You're falling into the trap of thinking Israel has some kind of legendary intelligence force when the attack showed they were only fooling themselves.

The intense bombing is just to drive away the population and empty out the area so the Israeli military can go in with ground forces without taking a lot of casualties. They won't go in on the ground unless a majority of people leave the area. Urban fighting with high rise buildings is a guarantee for mass casualties on the attacking force. The Israeli military is mostly reservists, so a lot of people with minimal combat experience and mostly did checkpoint duties in their active time in the IDF.

Granted my company is much, much smaller but they have leaned into work from home. They didn't renew the office lease on our larger space and instead just moved to a small we work space for a few folks that like to work in the office. The CEO actually loves it because it saves the company a ton in rent/leasing.

But Meta is probably just trying to triage folks without having to pay severance or unemployment.

There is actually a Hoarder house flippers TV show on some streaming service. It's pretty interesting if anyone is curious to see a house like this turned around. One place even had severe mold and they had it professional cleaned down to the studs.

I am legit curious to see what stage on hoard this was and the state of the inside of the house, any water damage, etc.
