LionArcher posted:which is why I’ve said Biden is better than trump. still terrible, not going to save us, but if nothing else the tension level from friends family partners has drastically gone down since Biden took office. let’s keep things as pleasant as possible as we watch civilization collapse. loving lol at this if trump didn't exist the market-libs would have had to invent him. all he did was take the heat for the destruction they have been working on for decades.

perepelki posted:anybody itt who had a berry crop devastated by the heat dome should be looking for the berries that didn't get completely ruined, and saving those seeds; that's the beginning of their heat-tolerant heirloom line. the "qq but mexico nationalized their oil company" talking point came out so fast it must have been an emergency workshop by exxon-mobil.

Mola Yam posted:THATS A BIG loving TIRE DUMP not really that big, you can see the bare ground. The ones in the US are piled up en enormous pyramids of waste. It also means if anyone cared here they could just bulldoze the tires away in a ring around the fire and let it burn itself out.

mediaphage posted:they dig big holes and fill them, though, so i'm not sure you can use this as a means of guestimation. i think the satellite scale is also probably throwing people off. it's a fuckton of tires either way: i have a hard time caring because the only thing that happens with used tires is they get burned, aside from a microscopic fraction that get turned into playground material or mixed with asphalt. the us mostly got rid of their enormous tire piles by feeding them into furnaces. it's been around 150 years and nobody's figured out how to devulcanize rubber, or reform vucanized rubber into a new tire.

mawarannahr posted:the grapes metaphor is a little too awkward to name the book after it imo. heavy for the vintage?? the more people post that passage the more i wonder if the book would have sold better with a sensible title. people got so mad about it steinbeck moved out west to live on a boat for years to write a book about the marine life. it used to be non-fiction but now he might as well have documented mermaids and unicorns

fabergay egg posted:industrial chemistry may have put the world on the path of destruction, but at least we're can use it to figure out how to recycle our garbage while everything falls apart? it'll 100% get adopted if someone cracks the code because used tires are essentially free but in 150 years of research on the topic nobody has yet.

Whitenoise Poster posted:completely forgetting that those companies are providing products that the middle and poor classes will pull you apart with their bare hands if you do much as reduce thire access to these comforts by a half of a percent. now this is utter bullshit. covid and the supply chain breakdown have made tons of consumer goods scarce, where's the deadly riots and lynch mobs? nobody seems to give one single poo poo that our store shelves are half empty and there's no way to buy everything on your list when you go grocery shopping - even if you had infinite money poo poo's just not available. the rabid frenzy for the last gucchi is entirely made up.

Real hurthling! posted:the people that would riot are killing each other for pokemon cards , society is safe consumers aren't ripping each other apart for dumb trinkets, they're grumbling and buying them at inflated prices. meanwhile, at the grocery store  Leroy Diplowski posted:I'm still riding that 21st century buzz and the myriad elements of that lifestyle won't all blink out of existence at once but will quietly step away one by one like guests leaving a lovely party without offending the host. very much this. E: I'm not saying "eggs don't exist anymore", I'm saying that the breakdown of society is accelerating and it's blatantly evident in day-to-day life. You either have to hit a few stores or go shopping a few times in a week to get everything, there's signs saying "we're out and don't know when it will be restocked", prices have shot up significantly. but you can still eat (for now) Harik has issued a correction as of 06:45 on Aug 12, 2021 |

Rime posted:If renewables must necessarily be rebuilt, en-masse, every half century, how will that be achieved if we commit to zero fossil fuel emissions and a 100% renewable grid. As an aside, every time I bring up the regular rebuilding of renewables facilities as an issue, and somebody points out that "well nuclear and hydro need regular maintenance!" - I just assume they are an idiot because we clearly don't rebuild major hydroelectric facilities from the ground up every forty years. At some point we're mining scrapyards for materials, not raw ores, so there's a finite limit to the amount of material needed for energy generation. It's cheaper under capitalism to externalize the costs and use slave labor to produce raw material and throw everything into a hole when it's outlived its usefulness, but that's not inherent to the production itself. Rime posted:It's not about raw "producing the power which went into building and maintaining it" but about the form which the power generated takes. Physics is a bitch, electricity =/= "energy" as it applies to all applications. See the other quote about how RE sources cannot generate the manufacturing conditions necessary to build more of themselves, let alone while also powering civilization. arc furnace smelting exists and RE has enormous and predictable surplus periods where generation has to be idled. The non-aligned usage/production cycles will only get larger as the transition to RE continues and there's only so much you can do with battery tech. Dumping that 'waste' energy into high-energy processes (desalinization, electric smelting) makes sense. It's one of those "we could absolutely do this thing, but we won't because capitalism" Harik has issued a correction as of 10:39 on Sep 6, 2021 |

Tubgoat posted:That REALLY sounds like perjury, kidnapping, false imprisonment and malicious prosecution (among myriad other criminal acts). lol at thinking we were a nation of 'laws'. we're a nation of force and post-facto justifications and the reason this mock trial isn't national news is the same billionaires running it own all the media.
