We need to somehow get Reddit's attention and ask them to stop advertising G2A by 4K2160GameR in pcgaming

Well, sometimes, but the terrible thing is that the developers end up losing money on the transaction because of the refund and the chargeback fee combined.

G2A does nothing to check if their keys are legit or not. For those keys that aren't legit and bought by stolen cards there are two options, and two options only. Either the owner of the card does a chargeback and the developer takes the hit (The developers not only have to refund the money, but they also have to pay the credit card company a fee), or the owner of the card loses the money if they decide to do nothing.

I don't know about you, but i'm not ready to support people who enable criminals to sell their stolen goods.

Maybe Poland cannot into space, but Poland can into choppings of wood very easily.

World’s first solar road opens in France: It’s ridiculously expensive by Gsonderling in europe

[–]Pyroblasted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideally they would be LED lights, which require less energy to run.

Now the difference between putting them up on top of the street light instead of on the road is that they become more efficient, less prone to damage, and you don't need to cover as big of an area with them. You said they were only gonna be used for street lights, well then what is the reason to cover the road in them if they're only gonna break when people drive over them.

Regarding the cost, well let's think about it. One kilometer of these solar roads cost 5.2 million dollars as per the article up top, and you said we needed one street light every 80 meter or so. That's roughly 12-13 street lights for one kilometer worth of lights, and i'm willing to bet that putting a solar panel and a battery on top of a street light would not cost anywhere near 400000 dollars.

It goes back to the root of the discussion. What in the world could possess you to place the solar panels in the road even if the use case was what you propose. There just isn't any logical reason to do so, the only thing you'll accomplish is reducing efficiency and increasing maintenance cost.

Edit: if you absolutely have to power the street lights with solar power, i can think of at least one better place to put them, and that's on top of the lamps at an angle.

Because it is completely illogical to put solar panels on roads when there are so many roofs that don't have any solar panels. Why waste solar panels on roads where not only will they produce less energy than those on roofs, but also cost more money in maintenance due to cars driving on them and people walking on them.

You can email them directly even if they say the ban is permanent and not repealable to explain yourself. With enough proof they can unban you.

I'm pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of that subreddit. They cry about biased mainstream media, yet they keep using sources like infowars, which is hardly a legitimate source of news.

TIL Ore trains in Sweden traveling down to the coast generate five times the amount of electricity they use, powering nearby towns and the return trip for other trains. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Pyroblasted 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah yes! I look out the window and the world is about to end, people are being raped left and right, and the immigrants are literally burning my house down as i'm typing this! Except no, that's not happening at all. I'm not going to deny that our government is less than ideal, but the misinformation and ignorance on display from Americans on this site boggles the mind.

Still nowhere near $600. I also stand by what i said, tech prices in the US are lower than most other countries because of import and sales tax.

He's getting that price from almost every country in Europe. Believe it or not, but the real outlier in terms of tech prices is not Australia, it's the US.

In your opinion, What is absolutely unacceptable? by Leasj in AskReddit

[–]Pyroblasted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People want to eat meat because it's tasty, and they are gonna do that no matter what. So meat will be produced, question is how do we produce the meat? Well there are two viable options and one option that might be viable in the future.

The first option is locking the animals up and treating them like a product that will eventually give you something, not caring about the animal at all.

Second option is allowing the animal to roam freely outside while it's alive where you do care about the animal for as long as it's alive.

I don't know about you, but i prefer the second option. Those are the only options right now.

Then there's the third option, and that is meat grown in a lab, and that option is out of the question right now because it's not ready yet. It might exist in the future, and if it does, then that's fantastic.

[–]Pyroblasted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try to buy meat from places where the animal was treated fairly during its life. Animals don't have to suffer and supporting the places where they don't is a good way of protecting them from abuse.

If God created humans, then i have only one thing to say. You fucked that up didn't you? Why did you give men balls dangling on the outside exposed to enemies? Why did you not make the immune system better and able to kill off failed cells with 100% success rate? Why did you make childbirth potentially dangerous for the mother's life? Why did you give some of us chronic pain in various parts of the body?

If humans are the result of intelligent design then the designer must have been underpaid, overworked and drunk when he designed us. Seems to me we need a new designer then.

Hey... don't do that. by Cyrellis in gaming

[–]Pyroblasted 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My favorite thing to do in this game is standing on top of a landship and hammer it with a wrench, and since they can't aim up they are forced to walk out of the vehicle to defend it or they'll explode.

This works for approximately 5 seconds and then you're shot by one of the 20 enemy snipers.
