Its infuriating when I see labels other than “made in”

Things like designed in, packaged in, assembled in etc.

Sure, include those in addition to the made in label but don’t replace it.

If 90% of the item is imported from another country, say that country.

Any country involved in over 10% of the items production should be listed on the packaging in my opinion.

“Designed in America, assembled and packaged in Taiwan, produced using components from mexico, Brazil, Australia”

For example.

I think of it more in the light that plastics will probably be around for far longer than we will be so at least if I recycle it will make a cleaner planet for the animals that survive whatever else the earth throws at them.

The funny thing is that there’s an actual pedestrian overpass like 100m down the highway (you can see it in the photo if you zoom in) but they decide to crowd the vehicle overpass instead.

I’ve always wanted to start a group that goes onto that one instead and counters whatever the fuck this overpass is cheering for.

We should be putting all of the money towards fire smarting around communities, and then fighting fires that threaten communities.

Thin the forests for a few hundred meters around each community every 10 years, remove the deadfall, cut low hanging branches.

Let fires burn in the wilderness until it gets within a certain distance and then go full throttle to stop it from hitting any infrastructure, even it it means just letting it burn around the community.

They should find a way to punish drivers other than fines then. Like driving suspensions, mandatory driving classes, community service, etc.

It’s taken two decades just to get a highway expansion in Vancouver that serves millions of people.

There’s a bridge over a canal on one of the only ways to Vancouver from the rest of Canada and it’s pretty much falling apart, it’s embarrassing. It’s practically a farm bridge.

Tourists and visitors from out of province all have to cross that thing and it must be a hell of an introduction to Vancouver. It’s not even regular width for a two lane road, constant crashes in it. Good luck if two semi trucks need to cross side by side.

It’s not that you can’t make it through the denizens, making it through the denizens is usually easy. It’s just a waste of time for the most part.

I haven’t played silksong, but I’m just going off other games in the past for my experience.

If you make it through the hallway of meaningless denizens that just waste time and get to the boss, then die to the boss… Why waste time going through the meaningless denizens again to challenge the boss?

I can see it on higher difficulties when you need to make sure you get through the meaningless denizens perfectly in order to preserve your health and resources to have a better chance of defeating the boss.

But when you just want to experience the story on lower difficulty why make the denizens less powerful to make the boss easier when you can instead just put the save point in front of the boss in instead of the denizens? You’ve already made it through the denizens, it’s not like you’re skipping content.

Eh, make it optional. On hard difficulty make it a thing, medium difficulty allow it to be skipped.

Eh, I think no matter how much you paid someone if they are the type to accept bribes they will accept bribes.

I don’t think paying $200k would be any more likely to accept bribes than paying $300k-500k

And yet gas prices still go up, as the savings just go straight into the pockets of the CEO’s and shareholders instead of income taxes from workers going to public infrastructure and services and subsidies still exist.

It’s not their job to police the ownership of the steam account.

The steam account owns the game, whoever controls the steam account owns the rockstar game.

The fuck are they going to do? Arrest all the striking workers? That will sure get them back to work faster.

Capitalism and the free market is supposed to encourage efficiency and innovation in order to remain competitive in order to keep prices low… Is Sony against capitalism? Is it against the free market? Is in adverse to innovation? C’mon Sony … Stop being lazy.

We already just dealt with all the bullshit from the TransCanada pipeline. Construction delays and traffic and people backyards being dug up and noise in residential areas. I don’t want to deal with all that again. The TransCanada pipeline isn’t even operating at full capacity yet I believe.

Being a middleman. Someone I know ran a business selling T-shirts with print on them and never touched a shirt. Just took the order, and then ordered it from some shop in China to directly ship it to “his” customer.

Basically just ran a website, took money, and worked customer service if needed.

I don’t see why there was ever a separation to begin with. It’s amazing have coffee shops and sandwich shops / corner stores in residential areas.

I can see not wanting a McDonald’s beside you, but a little local coffee shop would be great

Eh, it’s unique but I don’t think that should give Sony the right to use the exclusively (looking at you Nintendo and Pokemon)

You could have the exact same game but with fleshy dinosaurs and all of a sudden it’s not a problem? And then a third company can come out with another copy with fleshy dinosaurs and there’s no issue because fleshy dinosaurs aren’t unique.

Not much overall I would guess. Most people going 60-70 in a 50 zone usually just end up getting to the next red light faster, wasting their gas and wearing down their brakes faster.

Eh personally I sort of support this. It’s literally only 50m.

It’s exactly what we needed during COVID with the idiots blocking access to hospitals.

Or people harassing clinics and women over abortions.
