This is only a few paragraphs in; on a larger screen you don't even have to scroll.

This industrial revolution was precipitated by the discovery of the steam engine, various spinning machines, the mechanical loom, and a whole series of other mechanical devices.

What is so objectionable about that, or so hard about copying it?

Being required to read something for less than 60 seconds isn't a violation of your rights- in fact, this is less than 1% of the time a EULA or ToS takes. It also takes less time and bandwidth than many of the AI-training Captchas nowadays.

If you have a problem with reading 30 seconds of something you have a feeling you might disagree with, the real problem is you not being willing to peek outside your bubble.

No word on this from the "Western workers = labor aristocrats" crowd.

I'm not sure that fitting Earthlike habitats in giant spaceships would make sense without limitless exponential growth. Wouldn't it be more feasible to put something on the surface of a planet?

No matter how advanced our technology gets, we are not going to get around the basic constraints on energy.

you really can't make this sort of assumption

In the past 2 decades vinyl ones have become a lot more common. I don't know if there's any difference in strength, but being hypoallergenic gives them a broader market.

"If you care about the planet, be sure to cut down on this product that contributes 0.01% of all plastic waste"

You're thinking of bigotry. White people don't experience systematically unfavorable outcomes from the perception of their skin color.

The difference between the right word and the almost-right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.

The orthodox version of the meme literally has a tree as a focal point.

Never had that problem, maybe because I have the thigh-gap body type.

Winding down the winding down of carbon emissions

If you like doing your job and going home

You enjoy your employment and you even enjoy your commute. Then what's the problem? Are your coworkers having an even better time at work than you are? I don't understand.

How is one wolf killing a moose solo? I feel like the wolf would need to catch the moose sleeping to do that.

Glaze at the result but donut turnover the die, it will fudge your rolls
