I mean, it would still be pretty bad news as most of them are domesticated farm animals that are vital to our agriculture.

Alaska isn't even a non-shitty option to be clear. They have a storied history of cost-cutting at the expense of safety. They just seem to be reliably the least shitty.

Normal? Yes, it's pretty normal and common. Is it logical? No, not really. But is it actually unhealthy? Yes, yes it is.

I just want to point out that you just said everywhere but and then listed around 60% of the total world land area.

If I'm only allowed one type of pencil it's good old #2 (I'm more of a pen snob)

Delta is like the fucking Target of air travel I swear. They're still a shitty mega corporation but it's where you pay a tiny bit extra to not use Walmart/United

I'm US based, I only fly Air Alaska basically but obviously I live in the Northwest. There's a fallacy though that "oh, ethical consumption is impossible therefore it doesn't matter." Just because it's a choice between Delta, AA and United, doesn't mean you shouldn't still pick the slightly less shit option and fly Delta.

Non-North America based if possible, Air Alaska group if not IMO, Southwest used to be a decent option but not since the hedge fund took over. Might be other choices if you're East Coast based. Might be CA options better than Air Canada that I'm unfamiliar with too.

I loved it but needed it to be longer. I want to dig more hole.

Everyone keeps flying on United despite a million stories happening to "other people" but it won't happen to them. Fucking honestly I'm running out of sympathy for people who give their money to profoundly shitty companies and then are shocked when they're treated badly.

Cyanide is legendarily fast acting. Among the fastest known poisons.

Thallium was pretty famous for this until its mechanism of toxicity and antidotes were better understood. Slow acting, tasteless, odorless, colorless, symptoms weird and mimic other things. Used to be used for rat poison but the risk of accidental exposure was too high. Requires late 1800s technology.

Shot and bombed, oh yeah, and they and their families were SET ON FIRE AND BURNED ALIVE

Isn't that more of a "from them we come and to them we will return" thing than literally them being a type of tree?

It still does actually, tanking the resale value will dramatically cut into new car sales. Encouraging current owners to sell absolutely does have an affect.

(It also raises insurance premiums for Tesla's, also hurting their market)

I fixed this ages ago, I am pointing out that it's unacceptable from a UX standpoint. And it was in the last year for the record, this definitely wasn't just a fully solved issue years ago.

Which is great for the people who have the time to invest to know how to use a computer via the terminal, I used to be one of those people, now I have had various full time jobs that don't use computers for nearly a decade since then though and I don't want to do much with terminal anymore (it took me like 10 minutes to remember 'top') It's hard to take a polished, user friendly OS seriously when I couldn't access the NTFS windows backup partition on my laptop without using terminal, because they needed elevated permissions to see because they were, naturallly, created by another user. I legitimately couldn't just open the file manager as root to copy and paste my files into the new root partition without thinking about it. Ridiculous hand holding clunkiness.

You've given me instructions that require terminal use, your argument is invalid. If it doesn't either work out of the box or is immediately fixable without going into the terminal, then it's not ready yet.

Honestly, not being able to run Dolphin as root made me feel like my PC wasn't mine more than anything windows did up until recently.

Your computer is yours... As long as you're comfortable doing it via terminal... Yay...
