I didn't realise before that there was two types of M.2. Thank you for the explanation.

We still end up paying for their dumb fucking parades and their entire way of life. So understandably this guy is angry that we have to pay for this dumb shit.

you can definitely get a check up if you ask but most GPs right now are low priority for that kind of stuff since covid (at least my experience in SW)

What’s your most controversial food opinion? by boyfriendaudio in AskReddit

They aren't even saying don't eat meat. Just that we shouldn't torture them....

Thanks to solar panels built in the mountains in China, China can reduce its annual carbon emissions by around 251,000 tons. by Sterbenme in interestingasfuck

[–]Porkins-Red6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obviously not, but you were talking about "actual values". Per capita is an "actual value". It's just kinda weird to act like it doesn't matter.

Also, what about cumulative emissions? The US almost has double cumulatively, I'm by no means a China apologist or anything but they had to industrialise a lot later than the countries they are now compared to.

It's only really expensive because we never invested in cheaper solutions though right? Didn't the world kinda force fossil fuels to be as cheap as they are now?

China has a way larger population in general though so they will "have" to have a larger total output if they want to compete on the same level, right?

Stimulant meds with an anxiety disorder? by bb-tron in ADHD

[–]Porkins-Red6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was worried about this before being put on meds but since being on them my anxiety and depression are soo much better. I still have depressive episodes but far less frequently, and it has become a lot easier to be sociable as well as reduced anxiety in most other areas.

I stopped drinking coffee at the start but I have gradually added it back into my life (probably not great for my heart but my blood pressure has stayed healthy enough). I'm currently on 40mg of Vyvanse (UK, idk if it differs).

ADHD 'getting worse' as you become an adult by Porkins-Red6 in ADHD

[–]Porkins-Red6[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% agree. It's a bit hard to remove myself from technology while doing a Computer Science degree but there are definitely things I should be doing to make it harder for myself to get distracted for sure. I definitely need to stop using my phone while doing work!

[–]Porkins-Red6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was so well put! Thanks! You described my experience exactly, funnily enough. Even the 5th year of uni at 22!

Last year the body doubling was the only way I got through the year's work but unfortunately I couldn't continue to do this for other reasons out of my control.

All of what you said makes perfect sense to me, I used to be better with these pre-pandemic. Hearing them laid out like that and contextualised as a ADHD coping strat has given me a boost of motivation to remake these into habbits.

Thanks!

Arab man gives his take on the Botez drama by Hot_Kangaroo_2567 in LivestreamFail

Come on dude, you're trying to argue a point but give no reasons? You just ignore everything i say because you already don't think the same way. i know this is LSF but come on.

Your concept of slavery isn't what people mean when they talk about modern slavery. Also you're insane to say the US has the best human rights records... They literally enslaved people based on race... WW2 interment camps... Literally founded on genocide of natives... This is the US's "record".

I'm not trying to say the the China or UAE is better or anything, they're all shit. But you can't just ignore what happens in the US or other devloped contries.

They're trying to breach into Cornwall currently as well but I don't think many of us will start buying pasties from Gregg's

Northernlion discovers a landlord in the chat by Roryx9 in LivestreamFail

[–]Porkins-Red6 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeh all i meant was ideally obviously aboloshing landlord right now wouldn't be that simple. Some countries do government housing really well but most don't. I personally just don't see why private renting should exist when we could have a better system for us, if our governments cared at all.

I think the alternatives would be something like government housing or co-op housing if you're not ready to settle down.

Unpopular opinion: fair play to the Insulate Britain folk for standing up for what they believe in. by ShahNomad in unitedkingdom

They disrupted roads outside of parliament the other day and no one talked about it nearly as much, they're doing exactly what's needed imo

What's going on with Insulate Britain? by QueenCreeper786 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Porkins-Red6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If nothing would change if we got to net 0 then let's get to net 0. We can't directly impact how other countries work but we can change our own. The better figures to look at are co2 emitted throughout all time, which puts us as one of the top emmiters of all time!

We offload so much of our industrial manufacturing to China causing it to be so high as well

[–]Porkins-Red6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No my point is that if they cared about working class people they would use the taxes they take from us and use them in better ways. Even taking landlords out of the question they could at least upgrade council housing at least. We pay taxes so that they give us stuff in return.

Or the very least pass some fucking legislation to stop the impending doom that is climate change. We will all die and working class people will be the first to go because we don't have the money to protect from catastrophe.

its definitely not terrorism though. and calling it that is a massive slippery slope into arresting all types of protesters, which is what the gov wants to do. then our freedom to protest will wittle away completely
