It’s kinda like comparing universal healthcare to individual payer for-profit insurance. One rewards everyone as a universal system with consistency (at least in theory) and the other rewards only rich people.

That… makes a lot of sense, I hadn’t considered that.

That totally makes sense that they would need pure sand, idfk how to make that work. But if Intel needs rounded sand grains, then they need to find another way to erode sand into that shape cause ocean sand is quite unique from the billions of years it’s had to tumble in the ocean. Otherwise Intel will indeed be using ocean sand.

Also it occurred to me that making chips on glass could be more recyclable since glass is also recyclable. 🤔 Would be good if that happens!

I’m not saying we’re not beautiful, I believe we are both beautiful and flawed. Imperfections are what create new quirks and differences that we can learn to appreciate and grow with, not against.

Sand is a non-renewable resource

Not all beaches are public, and not all are in America where there are laws that protect beaches.

Yuuup, because to pretty much everyone on top, it’s not sadistic, it’s business as usual. They don’t typically experience the crushing despair of the poor.

This system is working as intended and must be transformed so dramatically as to be nearly unrecognizable or fall altogether.

Younger generations have had less time, resources, etc. to react to these disasters and we’re constantly told “you have it easier” or “just tough through it” by people over 40 who have the privilege to not see it as the end of the world all the time.

It really just boils down to ageism and classism being used against younger generations to keep us quiet, and this kind of question reads as dismissive.

Edit: you’re not wrong that other age groups are suffering, but I think a better response is hey, me too instead of what, you think this objectively false thing is true? (I’m being dramatic for effect, not to make you look silly)

I’ll do you waaaayy better

I just hope this doesn’t mean Big Tech is incentivized to buy up lots of beach sand from poor cities already dealing with hurricanes.

Beach sand, if you didn’t know, is an important barrier between the land and oceans and greatly affects the size of waves that come crashing into the coast. Big rocks and other substrates just don’t calm waves like ocean-eroded sand can.

Kinda depends on whether you see gods as human or not… I don’t believe in god’s that aren’t flawed beings just like us.

Both men started out rich and affluent! Of course they could make profitable companies. I could too with blood emerald money 🤷

But I’m also not the type of narcissist to want to hoard the blood emerald money or whatever Gates had and infinitely increase it beyond what I need to live and thrive.

I don’t understand, is this a cum joke? It just looks like fat shaming to me.

Not everyone can afford a windscreen mount, but you’re not wrong, it would be good to have your GPS on or near the windscreen.

Idk, does this count as a flared base? I wouldn’t trust it, but I’m no expert.

I mean… I’d still prefer no hole punch at all.

Edit: Not that I actually care what apple does directly, but it does ripple through the industry of copycats

Oh good!

Hey, some of us take the time to cite our sources!

Decided is a strong word, more like ramped up cyclones of misinformation and continued to double-down, but you’re not wrong.

It’s a fair question, and also this conversation leaves out the necessity of public transportation which would be a much better way to reduce pollution (which EV fans will often say is why you need an EV).

Sucks that that happens to you, but good for you for resisting his possessiveness! Hope you can find some better friends!
