Look, I get it it's the Internet, but why all the insults?

I read the links and it seems to me that I was entirely correct. Runoff from farms is the primary source of nitrogen and other fertilizers in the waterways. I drive through Addison Vermont every day for work. You can smell the putrid rotting shit they spray on the fields. Vermont has rules around when you can spray shit, so that's why it smells worse than New York farms. Because it ferments in a pit or tank for a while before use.

I also did a preliminary search and it seems that golf courses have been reducing the amount of fertilizer used over the past couple of decades.

So yes fertilizer is a problem. Farms need to figure out a way to reduce the runoff they produce. I probably just didn't read hard enough but how much of a problem are golf courses? How do they compare to other polluters?

I teach snowboarding in the winter! You get a free pass, get to meet lots of people, and the more time you spend thinking about snowboarding the better you get at it. Also great for fitness. It can get pretty exhausting though.

Yeah if it lasts more than a couple minutes I just walk away, my presence is not wanted in that conversation anyway.

I don't think you've seen how NEON GREEN the Adirondacks are. I get that they fertilize it. But really I don't think the environmental impact is particularly great around me.

What environmental impacts are there that I'm not thinking of for my area? And how severe are they? The way I see it, this area is one that can afford to have golf courses.

I live in upstate New York, just about every town has a golf course. I personally love the game, but I honestly don't think their that bad for the environment up here. For many people it's their third place.

Like we get plenty of rain, and most I've been to are nestled near the edge of the forests. The APA regulates the shit out of what you can do. And it's really not much of a waste of land. If I want to go for a hike or trail run, I have dozens within biking distance and maybe even 100 within 30 minutes of driving.

It's farms and their cow shit fertilizer releasing gass and it's runoff polluting the watershed that's doing the most damage around here. But like I say, the APA does a pretty good job most of the time.

Dragonborn rogue...

So a normal Skyrim playthrough I guess.

Haha, my browser is called curl

What browser signifies an excellent source of information? Ice weasel? w3m?

"Yep, you'll have that on them big jobs."

Dang, these are actually really good costume ideas. I'm kinda thinking of what other more nebulous fears can be costumes now.

I don't know, maybe I should be angry or something. But Activision/Blizzard have been pretty shitty for a while now. This will just be more of the same and more of me continueing to not buying their games.

This evening will be my first day back at run club! I've been doing short runs for a bit now, as well as sitting on the stationary bike. But thank you for the suggestion

Yeah I picked up running this summer. A little while ago I injured my foot and couldn't run anymore, things instantly got worse for me.

I love stories, journaling RPGs and solo RPGs make writing stories fun and easy.

Itch.io has a ton of them for super cheap. Thousand year old vampire, one of the most popular journaling RPGs, has plenty of free community copies to grab.

If I may ask, why QubesOS in particular?

Is it for the extra security? Then why aren't you using it now?

Is it for the virtualization? Then why not any other Linux OS ?

Woah! Atom-shell = electron. I'm dumb and the connection was just made.

I'll be honest, it's taken me like all day to realize people weren't talking about cs:go

I did not know it was a trend or whatever until reading all the comments. But I probably think about the Roman empire most days.

Saw these in a hardware store the other day and really wanted to try one. Someone should bring them into their office and see if people will eat them
