It can’t have zero impact if you replace 50-300 million straws per day in de US alone. Could we do more? Of course we could but a start is a start and this is better than nothing.
Besides that I don’t get how and why someone’s life might depends on plastic straws but I’m sure we could find an alternative for that poor person.
Maybe but a metal or glass straw that got disposed has a very different impact on the environment than a plastic one…
No but the plastic ones actually did harm the plant.
Once in a restaurant I got some longe macaroni pasta as a straw and I still think this was genius.
It is totally terrifying but also very strange to read about the record heat everywhere while we here in Germany had probably the coldest July in a decade. We had 16C where we should have had 30C. And we had rain, a lot of rain.
Still, I’m terrified.
It’s the news community on lemmy.world. Should we all start posting our local news?
That’s no world news, that’s cleveland news. Please post content that’s relevant to the world.
I do, I’d just like to enjoy it myself you know. That’s why I asked.
Strange how it’s ever only an argument if people are trashing something you like…
And sorry but I must have missed something about sync to understand the hype about it. First sing I saw in google play was the tag for in-app purchases. I’m okay paying for an app but I would prefer doing so beforehand without guessing what I might be paying after installation. Then the first thing I saw in sync was sponsored content. Absolutely not cool.
Connect for Lemmy has basically the same layout as well as the thunder client just without sponsored content. I would totally understand if those client where garbage or had missing features but that’s not the case… So what am I missing?
Don’t know your evidence for that comment but the Kia I drive is a very good and reliable car.
We should definitely rethink all of education on this premise 👍
Better to help the people who are to stupid to survive everyday life with vague allegorical stories than to help the people who are so weak that they get mentally ill from the constant stream of tragedy that is modern day media.
On the other hand, isn’t there a global trend where people stop consuming any news at all on the base that they feel like they’re getting sick from it?
And I don’t even own a boat 😢
You’re a very strong dude. Good for you.
But is your solution to “nobody reads signs or article” and “instructions or licences are bad quality” really that we simply need more tragic articles with no further helpful information/instruction?
You really need an article about a dead child to remind you that a fast spinning metal propeller can be dangerous?
Aren’t there hundreds of warning signs with information just like that labeled on everything in the U.S.? Don’t you need some license or at least an instruction lesson to opperae a boat? Wouldn’t an article about boat safety in general be much more helpful than a story about a dead child?
Okay, one person on a boat is now more aware of the danger while ten people around the world are one step closer to mental breakdown and depression.
This article wasn’t written to help anyone, it was written to generate traffic by triggering empathy and compassion. It’s click bait.
That’s no news, that’s a sad information about a sad accident that makes me and everyone more sad. It’s in no way relevant for anyone other then the family, it doesn’t help to prevent further accident nor could anything be improved based on this information.
This was in Arizona and I live in Germany, if the internet keeps going to inform me about every tragedy on this glob I’m soon going to be one of them…
Origins and Inquisition. One was a masterpiece and the other was also great.
But I would suggest that you start wir Dragon Age inquisition since Origins simply feels like the old game that it is.
“hold the rights to X”
What does this even mean?
The bright future where we wast even more time in endless and meaningless filler conversations with npcs instead of actual playing a game…
Some good story games may need good and deep stories with meaningful interconnected dialogues best written by humans while other games maybe should limit their NPC interactions to pushing the gameplay…
