@meatoftheface@WUTangKids I agree, but was being conservative. Meant to imply that although it’s not impossible that it’s worse than smoking, that’s not a reason to think it’s very dangerous. Probably ok, but there hasn’t been time for long term studies.
@dioscuri@Mond112233@txgermanbre Totally. The food is a consequence of the pioneering spirit to create whatever we wanted. Then got too good at making cheap food tasty. Obesity follows the food. Even the French are gaining weight as fast food gets more popular there.
@Roger_Riera@IamcandiiB25314@EpicClipVault Nahhh I think he’s alright. Just have to understand the sea. In this situation you can tread water and go with the flow, then wait for the set of waves to end to swim back. This dudes a surfer he knows. People drown bc they panic, fight in the wrong direction and get exhausted.
@RichardAMilton@GerberKawasaki Correction: the data shows that 98 of the last 100 “coin flips” has been “heads” (higher than avg yearly temp)

@RichardAMilton@GerberKawasaki No. That is not the math of climate change. A better analogy is that 90 of the last 100 coin flips have been heads, and we have physical evidence that modifying shape of the coin can cause more “heads”. Now, the 101st flip is also heads.
Same with each years global temp.
@Cruiser5551@FernwoodFreddie@scottlincicome@jmhorp@opinion We don’t need to replace all imports. All I think we need is a smelter to produce enough high purity aerospace-grade aluminum to support DoD needs. And a market that can keep them in business. Just some targeted intervention.
@scottlincicome@FernwoodFreddie@jmhorp@opinion Mostly agree. I think gov should support domestic aluminum enough to supply DoD though. The remaining smelters are hurting, and might not be here were it not for Al tariffs. Probably wrong support mechanism though. I think blanket tariffs on allies are dumber.
@FernwoodFreddie@scottlincicome@jmhorp@opinion The smelters have the water and power now. Yes, their costs are rising and that hurts profits. But tariffs boost their revenues - I’d like to know by how much.
Btw smelters require 1 GW of power - more than a data center.
@JohnStossel@GWrightstone@CO2Coalition@LinneaLueken But I don’t think methane is the main source of emissions from meat. I think it’s the much larger supply chain of the tons of corn that needs to be grown and shipped to keep the cattle alive. Would like to see the analysis there @grok
@crazyunclelou@jackdwagner lol Huh? Chinas spending on the railways was equal to about a year of defense spending. So you’re off by about (literally) 50,000%. More rail would be good, but you’re being ridiculous. Not to mention US bureaucracy would probably 10x the costs to $10T.
