I did the math a while ago, and there’s a straightforward way we can solve this with hemp/cannabis/marijuana. It would take us 10 years to clean up the carbon we’ve released in the last.12,000 since we started smelting copper, but that requires 5,000,000,000 acres of constant hemp/* production with 4 harvests per year, and all the roots collected, compressed, and dumped into the Marianas trench. Once we did that, even at current emission levels we can cut back to 2,500,000,000 acres of production, and taper off as we manage to hit zero emissions. Effectively giving us a global “thermostat.”
Of course the problem here is that you’d need the buy in of almost every single country on Earth, but the plants can be used for food, fuel, clothing, paper, housing, concrete, and a lot of other things, so it could actually be a net profit to the global economy.
I may have remembered the total off by a factor it may only be 5,000,000 like I said I did the math a while ago, it came out to roughly 1.5 times the areble land of the US, which is why I said we would need everyone to do it. Also it’s still useful in smaller amounts, just makes the carbon capture take longer than 10 years. I wanted something that we could implement last year, and would fix this shit by 2032.
Trees are too slow to make any meaningful change in the next decade.
I’m a former chef, so I call cooking an art, and baking a science. The recipes need a lot more data in baking, so that everyone can follow the recipe and get consistent results. I can eyeball my shit everywhere else and get great results. I still use measuring spoons and cups for some recipes, but most of the time I’m just playing with ingredients, and adding by smell/taste.
First time, can be. After that not so much. I’m cheating making my own five spice and having about a decade and a half experience in Chinese kitchens, so I know their recipes.
Things were just as polarized. They cancelled The Dixie Chicks and French Fries within 2 years of the movie coming out. BTW I was 19 when the film came out, and was paying attention as I had been in university for 3 years at that point.
Either way, I was using the most basic definition of a conservative that there is. Someone that wants to maintain the status quo. Cypher fits that definition. Republicans and Democrats don’t exist in the real world of The Matrix, so I wasn’t using a political definition.
Neo didn’t know all that. I’m pretty sure that was Cypher’s story. Cypher didn’t know what the red pill would do either, and just wants to take the blue pill to get back to “a more preferential life,” for him.
Kinda ironic that the conservative of the film wants the blue pill.
Not sure if this is 100% scientifically backed but I read a bit by a dental hygienist on a forum that you shouldn’t rinse when brushing with proper toothpaste because it can help remineralize the teeth if when its not rinsed away after...
Waterpik Sonic Fusion. I brush before bed, and wake up feeling almost “from the dentist” clean. Also the whole thing has timers so I don’t have to worry about that.
Oh, ok. So while they are in the air, or what? Or is this more like a trick bike display where they are just using the pegs to balance at crazy angles while they stay on the ground, similar to the former SAAB stunt driving team?
Edit: For reference, those are unmodified SAABs. They could just do that shit off the line. That’s specifically why GM killed SAAB. They refused to use the GM standard parts, and kept making the safest cars in the world.

What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of? (kbin.social)
It could even be a youtube video or movie that you don't think anyone reading this has heard of besides you.
What's a food you love, that isn't worth making from scratch?
For me, crepes ain’t worth the stress to make fresh. Just buy a little pack from store and focus on filling is my go to.
