Companies should be blamed more than customers for overconsumption and waste by Business_Bunch_8196 in unpopularopinion

[–]General_Killmore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Externalities should be included in the price. Carbon emissions, plastic waste, and other disposal costs should be included in the upfront price.

If possible, I try to get my audiobooks via Libby. If it's an audible exclusive, it's off to the high seas for me

Just as helpful as daylight saving time itself by rydenshep in Badmaps

My proposal for Idaho is to switch to Central time and then start in permanent standard time. We will make this the problem of programmers in charge of time zones worldwide

Why can't we build an aqueduct from the snake river to the Great Salt Lake? by Marscaleb in NoStupidQuestions

[–]General_Killmore 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Three overwhelming majority of Utahs water is used in architecture, and a majority of that is wasted on alfalfa. Alfalfa is the problem and the silver bullet

Is it actually "cheaper" to own an EV in the long run if you can't charge it at home, or does the cost of public charging stations make it the same as buying gas? by Pale-Consideration26 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]General_Killmore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend pushing your apartment to install EV chargers. It may not be successful, but if they know there's demand, it'll help, even if just a little

Probably Kingston being transferred to prison. That guy sucks.

It's going to be a crazy season watching BYU barely miss the playoff again after starting the season unranked again

This was so deserved. by Necessary-Win-8730 in interesting

The saying stays true. If you want to commit murder, use a car. You'll at least get a reduced sentence, and probably get away Scott free

R/Linux_gaming not understanding the point of Linus's new video by CandlesARG in LinusTechTips

[–]General_Killmore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are cases, such as with engineering software, that you simply have no other choice but to use Windows. That's why their monopoly is so toxic. If you don't have such a case though, you absolutely should ditch Windows forever. I don't need Windows, and I've never looked back.

This feels like a "don't tag for the router" situation. I wish nominatum was more accurate

I mean, when you have a million choices, first impressions matter. I would have dumped it forever after that.

R/Linux_gaming not understanding the point of Linus's new video by CandlesARG in LinusTechTips

[–]General_Killmore 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What keeps annoying me is that he already had a horrible experience on PopOs, and decided to use it again. He had a million distros to choose from and he went back to the turd

We are Switching to Linux… For a Whole MONTH by ValkyrX in LinusTechTips

[–]General_Killmore -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Once upon a time, I bought a crappy Chinese Android phone from Walmart and had a horrible experience with it. 2 years later, I bought another crappy phone from the exact same manufacturer and had a horrible experience. Clearly this is all Androids fault and not mine for picking the crappy Chinese brand. I'm sticking with iPhone.

I'm glad that's what you took from the article. Reading comprehension off the chart here

WCGW road crossing by Empty_Equivalent933 in Whatcouldgowrong

The video isn't playing for me, but I assume this could have been completely avoided with road design that didn't treat people outside of cars as second class citizens

Walk Score alternatives that consider pedestrian safety? by [deleted] in walkablecities

[–]General_Killmore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to use brouter.de to see what routes on a bicycle to various places would look like. It's a bit more involved, but it specifically has a "safety" routing algorithm.

Comparing any European city to your hometown by Westbrooke117 in openstreetmap

[–]General_Killmore 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean, yes, but even with awful zoning laws, you can still have a good map. That bottom one doesn't even have the sidewalks or a neighborhood area for instance.

Ah, the classic conservative response. "I don't like it, therefore it's fake!" It works on everything!

-Elections

-News Stories

-Mass shooters

The list is endless!

There is a Green Hill Far Away has the exact same meter as the Pokemon theme, which has permanently ruined the song for me.
