    Unpopular opinion: If we ended fossil fuel use immediately a lot of people would die and the entire economy would collapse. People would starve because stores wouldn't be stocked. People would freeze to death because they wouldn't be able to heat their homes. Looting and violence would soon follow.

    The only people who would likely be ok are the ultra wealthy.

    Change takes time and right now there are no alternatives that can immediately absorb the extra load from cutting off fossil fuels.

    It still works, just not as well. There are plenty of youtube videos teaching how to count cards even with multiple decks.

    Uhhh... yes they do. The people watching the cameras all count cards so they know when you're doing it. If they see you betting along with the count they will ask you to leave.

    Ok I'll be the pedantic comment guy.. AkShUaLly liquids and gasses are both fluids so technically this meme doesn't make sense as "fluid" is not a recognized state of matter. The correct state would be "Gender Liquid", but that sounds like a different sort of good time.

    I set mine to manual. It updated in the middle of the night once and my alarm didn't go off and made me a few hours late to work. Could have totally fucked me over if my boss wasn't cool about it.

    This is happening everywhere. The developers and city councils are all working together for that sweet sweet $$. Often times since city council is a second or part time job, it's the city council members' own companies and clients building the warehouses. Corrupt as hell.

    I think it depends more on what you're doing on those screens. I regularly download books from my local library to read on my phone. People used to read paper books, newspapers, and magazines all the time. Same shit, different means of consumption.

    I'm just gonna go back to calling everything gay and removed now because my substitute word "lame" is now unacceptable.

    Think of it like email. You can have username@goofle and someone else can have the same username@yoohoo but they can still talk to each other. Remember chain emails where people hit "reply all"? Same shit here.

    Seriously. I bought wireless earbuds for working out. They fit perfectly when dry, but if I'm not careful when working out they'll get sweaty and slip out. This used to happen occasionally with wired ear buds too but at least there was a cable to keep them from falling on the floor. Anyone have suggestions?

    Dearest Desert,

    I write you today with a heavy heart, longing for the past. Do you remember the times we had nary a sneeze? Oh how I yearn for those days.

    Always and forever yours, -ScrotumNipples
