I like that on Lemmy, you now don’t even have to click the link to actually read the article, and people still don’t do even that before making a stupid comment that is addressed by the article.
On both the standard web page and through Sync, it shows the article text. But on any format, you can click the little link and it will take you to the full article.
And I’m sorry dude, but it’s the internet. If you feel called out over little criticism of your unwillingness to read an article before commenting, that’s a you problem. It’s hardly “vitriolic.” We can and should try and make Lemmy better.
You don’t have to placate me. It shows part of the text and that depends on the setting you have set. Some articles don’t show at all because of my pihole or other settings on my phone. You made an assumption. And while I didn’t read the whole article, I literally just added my two cents which is kind of what platforms like this are here for.
So whilst the baby glacier idea has already been assessed as not working in the 90s, the ice stupas (TL;DR - water fountain in a shady mountain, sprays water to make a big pile of ice in winter - melts in summer for crop irrigation) seem pretty useful.
Yes, fuck Nestle, but also fuck Hershey. Nestle finds new and innovative ways to be evil, but Hershey is just old-fashioned slave labor and anticompetitive market capture.
There are pictures of large pickup trucks (think Ford F250/F350) flattened like a pancake fire from trying to pass one of these without alerting the driver they’re there. When you’re on a mine, these things always have the right of way.
I could be mistaken but I believe they move materials in rock quarries, at least that’s what I saw on an episode of some discovery show many years ago. I still think about them regularly too since it’s like 3 stories tall and has a stair case to get to the driver seat lol
These are the types of tyres, that when they blow have inch thick steel cable in the side walls that could decapitate three men in a go. Ask me how I know…
