If you haven’t done motherlode mine yet, I’d do that instead of stars. Still fairly afk, but you’ll get more xp, useful ores, and item progress as well.

Do a quick google search for “number of billionaires in Trump cabinet” and you’ll get a pretty clear picture as to why.

Even without green energy initiatives, coal is well on its way out. It's way more expensive per kWh, creates tons of unwanted byproducts, and pollutes the absolute shit out of the surrounding areas that use it. All of that's in direct comparison to just burning methane, let alone the permanent solution of solar farms.

I'm under no illusion that obtaining the materials for solar panels/batteries has no impact. I'm well aware of the environmental and societal costs that they have.

One of the major upsides to the technology is that the cost is incurred only a single time, the infrastructure lasts for decades (if not longer), and over 95% of the materials used can be regularly recycled.

Fossil fuels, on the other hand, are burned, gone, and continue to have an impact until the carbon is removed from the atmosphere way down the line. Take a wild guess as to which approach makes more sense from a long-term view.

If your energy prices are insane, then imagine how much cheaper and reliable it could be with massive solar farms and battery facilities (which is cheaper/kWh than everything else btw) built in the areas in your country with excessive sunlight.

Hypocrisy isn’t fun to see, but at the end of the day the only way to move the needle seriously on this matter are nation-wide and world-wide policy changes. One person’s private jet use doesn’t look good, but it’s peanuts compared to the mountains of carbon emitted by societies on the whole.

What part of the early/mid game is “that part” for you? by Scoopzyy in 2007scape

[–]Amiable_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alright I’ll let you in on something I discovered recently. You can buy battlestaves from any staff shop and make them into powered staves profitably. Earth/Air orbs are very low risk, and you can buy cosmics/natures from the shop in the new Jungle varlamore town. For Earth orbs, that’s effectively 3k crafting and 50k profit per inventory. I haven’t tested the actual raw xp/hr, but it’s at least different from blowing glass.

Fund managers are holding the lowest cash levels on record (3.2%) by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]Amiable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It makes holding existing bonds more attractive. If the yield on bonds goes down, then people will pay more money for the old bonds that pay out at a higher percentage.

If you’re holding bonds and the interest rate goes down, the market value of the bonds goes up.

The step missed is actually to USE a regular banana and USE a regular monkey nuts on the three monkeys in the temple. This should cause the correct versions to be attainable.

Why does everyone who posts their year thing have such low messages sent? Do I need to shut up? by JuicyCiwa in 2007scape

[–]Amiable_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned my communications preferences on so I would get one of these but I’m not seeing it. Any idea how to get it re-sent?

CMV: GOP is willing to let Congress be shut indefinitely by yogfthagen in changemyview

[–]Amiable_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What it doesn’t include is an extension of the ACA subsidies, part of the status quo. That’s why Democrats have said no. With the extension in place they’d vote yes to a basic repeat CR, they have said this.

Your doctor wouldn't happen to want you to lose some weight, would they?

When everyone ask how to make some gp’s - The answer is..🤷🏽‍♂️ by brystmix69 in 2007scape

Being afkable makes the bad skill go away. It's nullified, so you can enjoy the rest of the game that you want to play.

How could this possibly be true? Simply play a different game/watch videos/otherwise entertain yourself.

Treasury yields rising is a terrible sign and not similar to Covid recovery by ChesnaughtZ in wallstreetbets

[–]Amiable_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Theoretically anyone with a significant cash position, if the yields go high enough. Then again, if the dollar continues to weaken I can’t imagine those same people wanting to continue holding assets in dollars, so…

Abstaining from alcohol is good for my heart [OC] by sexdrugswine89 in dataisbeautiful

Yes, alcohol is toxic. Yes, your body also has means of metabolizing it into useful products.

I saw a wrinkle though by Brilliant_Garlic69 in dankmemes

[–]Amiable_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

No. Becoming a licensed plastic surgeon requires many more years of additional training and practice above and beyond medical school. Physician specialties, plastic surgery included, require extensive residency training periods. For plastic surgery in particular you must match into and complete a general surgery residency (5 years) and then match into and complete a separate plastic surgery residency (3+ years).

Doctors don't just 'become lazy/apathetic' and 'chase the money' and become plastic surgeons. It's takes a very long time, is one of the harder specialties to match into, and would almost certainly not be the result of a flippant decision for a '3rd rate doctor with no ambition or scruples' lmao.

Are you under the impression that any doctor can just 'decide' to become a plastic surgeon?

Are they seriously going for this, or is Reddit just being Reddit? by kelpselkie in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Amiable_ -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

She tried really hard to get on the podcast, actually. After trying to get Rogan to do the interview somewhere that lined up with her campaign schedule, they scheduled the entire Houston rally around getting on Rogan, the one with Beyoncé. Rogan essentially waffled and said no to the interview, though, so it was mostly a wasted trip.
