Don't worry, your pessimism isn't totally misplaced. See that big "natural gas" line?
Natural gas is just a more palatable word for methane, and burning methane is still putting an enormous amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. But methane by itself is like 10x worse than CO2 and the EPA estimates as much as 10% of all methane for domestic use ends up in the atmosphere. Fun!
Okay but FR wtf is usenet. I've never known, and I'm old enough to be able to say that I should
Top comment says NOOOOOOO
You are why downvotes should be more common on Lemmy. You're grossly misrepresenting the article and story.
Return all that shit, sell your keyboard, and buy one with USB instead.
I've just started the show, and I feel like from the outset they made it clear that a LOT of the show is creative fiction to fill in the gaps. I feel like a lot of people forget just how short the original trilogy is. F, F&E and SF, collectively, are like an 8 hour read! I don't love everything the show has done (and some of the acting is atrocious) but I love how they chose what boils down to allusions in the books and focused whole episodes on what that would've looked like in real time.
I also really like how they are not afraid to completely abandon cliff hangers for several episodes at a time, while still keeping you invested in what's happening. Asimov dwas notorious for that and did it SEVERAL times on the trilogy. Oh you wanna know what happens? Well I'll tell you eventually, but first, here's forty pages introducing brand new characters on a completely different planet...300 years in the future. Bitch.
You thought this was ....Ceti alpha six....
It was at that exact moment Kahn realized he was about to fuck all kinda shit up.
Yes it is. What exactly is the strike costing the economy? Actors and writers opting to forego their own wages in the interest of the collectively not being robbed by the members of the 1% and the mega corporations they run are not stealing money from people. The only thing the strike is doing is lowering the profit margins and short term value of the companies that only got said value by hoarding the wealth generated from the IP and likenesses of the people on strike.
Interesting it works now. Before I just got a bad gateway error or something
Your link doesn't go anywhere for me. Is it on my end or is the link bad?
Okay I want you to take a step back and literally FUCK YOUR OWN FACE
YES, methane stays in the atmosphere a shorter duration as methane, but most of it naturally breaks down into CO2 which then stays in the atmosphere just as long as all the other CO2. It is much worse than CO2 as a greenhouse gas.
