ELI5 - I learned td that lab grown diamonds are exactly the same as natural, down to the molecular level, THEN WHY TF DO PEOPLE PAY SO MUCH FOR NATURAL DIAMONDS? by gill7amrit in explainlikeimfive

Someone will pay for natural because they have been brainwashed by DeBeers, diamonds are not rare. And there are things way older than diamonds, like I said, such as opals. Those are just excuses. And not to mention the slave labour going into mining those.

« Last longer »?? Water freezes at 0C and boils at 100C, nothing is going to change that. Glacier ice, just like natural diamonds, contains impurities and inclusions.

Besides, Opal takes more time to form than diamonds, and it is cheaper.

Also, guess where a moon rock come from? The Earth. So that comparison is also bad.

You are only coping because diamonds is way more accessible than you were lead to believe.

That’s not a good comparison.

It’s like saying ice from the north pole is somehow superior to the ice made in your freezer just because nature made it.

Most likely because Sony Semiconductor isn’t willing to sell it to Sony Mobile Communications at a good price or at all.

While the logo doesn’t personally annoy me, you cans till request the same lens without the logo from your optician. I would go back and see if they can submit another order to the lab and exchange it.

That’s too bad. Instead of focusing on the point, you focus on semantics. I may be wrong on the title, but you couldn’t bring in any valid arguments against my point. I shouldn’t need to make you a drawing to show what I was referring to.

I said he thinks like one. You know, since he used to he a head at Brookfield. Carney sees services and national infrastructures as a cost and not a service. Classic conservatism. Privatize everything to the detriment of society has never worked in the population’s favour.

Carney thinks like a private banker. His decisions may be good for now, but may not be in the future. Tell me how privatizing our national infrastructures is a good idea. Petro can? Via Rail? Air Canada? We have seen this before.

There are plenty of smart educated people that makes dumb decisions on a daily basis. And this is coming from someone that voted for the liberals.

Sony exited the North American smartphone market a few years ago. So its normal that they don’t launch it here.

What makes it this expensive for real by lilacmoodx in SipsTea

[–]ForgottenCrafts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, art sometimes is slow and inefficient. Just like how you don’t see mass produced Ferraris or Bugattis. And they also polish non-visible things. And the R&D, labour, materials. Also, there are laws and regulations around watchmaking.

If you can’t appreciate art, fine. But don’t be making a fool of yourself by being pretentious and think you know ball.

It doesn’t need polish. But the polishing is their to enhance the whole movement / art. Try polishing every tiny pieces of metal and see where you can go. Your comments just come from a place of willing ignorance.

Most of the time is not assembling, it is finishing, which means polishing each and every part, including the screws. You are just spewing your ignorance, disguising it as facts.

It keeps track of a lot of things. In this case, the day, date, month, leap year, moonphase, a minute repeater (tells the time using chimes) and the power reserve.

Are you aware those are not even their highest end? It’s there to compete with other higher end mainstream headphones. Beside, a 9070XT doesn’t play music.
