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…

Than that’s their problem. Right now we’re destroying the current civilization.

Okay, in some ways bio char itself is like the regular charcoal we know from BBQs and the manufacturing process can be quite similar. But like most things, it’s a very complex topic, therefore, I’ll only give a very rough overview for now but I’ll also share some links to further information 👍 • While charcoal is mostly made from valuable wood, bio char can be made from every form of biomass, meaning it can be made from every form of biomass waste.
• During the manufacturing process, the chemical carbon in the biomass is put into a form that is stable for several thousand years, so unless the bio char is burned again it can’t reenter the atmosphere. • Each ton of bio char produced using plant based waste is equivalent to 2.6 tons of atmospheric carbon dioxide captured by those plants. • The manufacturing process generates a small amount of base-load energy which can be, depending on the size of the facility, enough for several hundreds of households. • The end product can be used to revitalize the extremely degraded soils we’re fighting in industrial agriculture right now.

Tl:dr we (indirectly) take something very bad from the atmosphere, generate useful energy with it and then store it within our dead soils to revitalize it.

It is not THE solution but I think it’s a feasible improvement.

I’m happy to answer more questions… here are some links ✌️

Wow you guys hate apple more than I do and I really think they’re overpriced but okay hard and software for people with other needs. The apple users I know don’t really think about gaming at all, wondering how many seriously do.

I have the feeling we should talk more about bio char. Seams like a feasible improvement for three very different problem mankind faces right now.

I hate to inform you that corals are dieing all around the world, not just in Florida.

This is a goog thing.

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.

New on this planet? When was the last time any political decision was based on science?

Sorry for the shitpost, I missed my train and now I’m a little bored 🤫

Why the downvotes, what’s wrong with that question?

Could it be for once useful not to be completely divided? Sure, rich people use and have used race, sex and so on to gain and maintain power but rich people are also composed, even if not homogeneously distributed, of different races, genders and so on.

Pointing fingers at rich white man helps in the same way as point fingers at rich Jews. It helps nothing but hiding the valid criticism of the out of control system we live in behind a hateful division of society.

You could have just said “rich people” to include all the shady ultra rich fuckers from all around the world. This isn’t a gender, race, culture or religion problem, it’s a class problem.

I don’t know if you really need Lightroom, if you only need it like five times a year?

Lightroom. There are lots of alternatives for editing some even FOSS but I haven’t found any usable alternative to the library of Lightroom…

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.

Okay and I agree but how is capitalism a government?

Windows because I know how to use it.
