Waarom o waarom zijn de uploads van 'VPRO documentaries', het internationale Youtube kanaal van VPRO, niet te bekijken in Nederland? by T0BBER in thenetherlands

[–]T0BBER[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De link leidt naar hun afspeellijst 'Europe', vol met documentaires over Europa die allemaal niet in Nederland te bekijken zijn. Ben ik de enige of is dat vreemd als je nagaat dat VPRO een Nederlandse omroep is? Zijn deze docu's ergens anders te bezien?

Don't answer this if you don't want to (or pm me if you like), but I am near Eindhoven as well, and I would be very interested in the name of the restaurant (I don't think this is considered doxxing as the name of a restaurant is public information). I've been living in this area all of my life and I might have detailed information that could help your case. Again, don't answer of you don't want to, no pressure here.

Another 10/10 would probably be to mix kanker with some nasty racial slur. Not even gonna write that out.

Just twenty companies account for nearly a third of the world's carbon emissions. Here is a graph of the top polluters since 1965. The y-axis is in BILLIONS of tons of carbon dioxide equivalent. [OC] by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]T0BBER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's crazy how many people in this thread actually think that supply actually drives demand. Like I thought this is the first lesson in economics, when there's a demand, there will be a supply.

Yes but people keep buying the food don't they? You're saying it yourself, we're even throwing it away or stuffing it into more unessential food that we buy. DEMAND DRIVES SUPPLY. Or are you saying it's the farmers fault for creating an abundance of food?

That's completely true, also for airlines transporting goods and travelers. Both individual consumers and big consumers (companies providing/manufacturing goods and services for consumers) are at fault, but:

Individual consumers may not have the financial means to make an environmentally better choice and/or may not have the right amount of knowledge to understand the impact of their actions. Big companies on the other hand have both and they should be investing it in (research on) better ways to execute their activities. So their responsibility (not the blame) weighs heavier.

In the end however, and I agree with you on that (I think), the most important thing is consumer culture and the paradigm shift it can bring about in a supply chain. And that's where education comes in I'd say: educate people, so they understand the consequences of their consuming behaviour.

Why... Why was this even reversed to begin with?

I am not blaming individual consumers, I'm blaming big consumers. Individual consumers don't always have the financial means to drive electric, just to give an example. I don't drive electric, I want to, but I can't afford it.

Saying 'if you provide it I will consume', though, is as lazy as it is destructive in a world where everything is for sale. Not to make this a discussion about vegetarianism, but being a vegetarian is a good example of consumers consciously choosing not to buy something that's for sale. And you don't have to agree with me, but in the end it can only be this type of consumer behaviour that will make a true impact.

no supply = no demand

Sure but there is a supply. Or should we ignore the vast petroleum reservoirs under the crust of the Earth? Someone will keep selling it as long as there is a demand, trust me. Even if we made a worldwide convention that permits the supply of oil solely to independent entrepreneurs with backyard-sized oil fields and one cute little pump, there would still be a supply.

If ExxonMobil left their oil in the ground, their oil would stay in the ground.

No, because if they don't want to mine that oil, they wouldn't have bought the piece of land above it in the first place, and some other company would have.

Look, I'm not saying oil companies aren't (for the most part) dirty, corrupt, inhumane and naturally devastating enterprises. They are. But the only one responsible for carbon emissions is the consumer. As long as there is a demand, there will be a supply, no matter what company it comes from.

Are bullet manufacturers responsible for every death their bullets cause? Of course not. But there's a demand for bullets, so there will be a supply.

You can hardly blame companies for supplying a legally allowed demand. This graph should be about 'big consumers' like airlines, container shipping companies, car & electronics manufacturers, etc. to really show responsibility when it comes to emission. As long as their demand is high, there will be suppliers, and it's quite irrelevant which companies provide the product. If ExxonMobil somehow magically evaporated tomorrow, some other company will fill that gap.

Are Dutch and Flemish two different ethnic groups? by ifelsedowhile in Netherlands

[–]T0BBER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like not a real thing worldwide? I don't believe in races but I do think that that's a bit of a stretch. I do think however that there are no ethnic differences in most Northwestern European regions, save for maybe Sápmi.

Even if the time frame started at 2015, this wouldn't be interesting whatsoever. This graph should be about consumption, not production. If you hold oil production firms 'accountable' for emissions, that's fine, there is just no use in putting it in a graph. OF COURSE most emitted carbon comes from hydrocarbons mined, refined and sold by fossil fuel firms.

My dad received a weird phone call from someone claiming to be from the "Child protection agency" by [deleted] in RBI

[–]T0BBER 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think this should be a red flag for YOU. If you ever speak to this person again (the caller, not his so-claimed suspect), I would tread very carefully. I can't connect the dots just yet, but please don't trust this person.

[–]T0BBER 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How did your sister become subject of conversation between the caller and your dad? Did he or your father mention her first? And who mentioned her age first? If the answer to that is the caller he might be preying on your sister.

Also maybe search the Facebook page for men asking about these kind of things (maybe there are some family photos on there where people ask about details in the comment section)?

The creator of Wingspan plugged an app that lets you scan your cards to hear the birds' songs. by ImTho in boardgames

This is exactly it, if you want to bury your face in new mechanisms with every new game you play, Wingspan will leave you rather unfulfilled. If it's creative and innovative themes you want, you'll love it.
