Every time I've tried to play a game on a streaming service it became a blurry mess as soon as I started moving. This is on a 500Mb fiber connection.

2) Hasn't every President lied? - tu quouqe
3) Trump stopped talking to Epstein in '04 - a lie
4) If whoever he accused of treason was actually treasonous, - double standards
5) Yes - yes, of course. 5 mil paid, soon 88 mil more.

So, you see, all you can respond with are logical fallacies. Case proven :)

Also, go buy yourself a dictionary, you need one.

No, finished goods are exempt from the law. So there are a lot of categories of products with high emissions that enter the EU through this loophole, even though the primary ingredients don't.

Like I said, not actually helping reduce CO2, performative, misaligned or otherwise ineffective is the rule.

Or, as in this specific case, a targeted tax.

We've americanized to an amazing extent under ursula, a level that even the lux leaks guy or the goldman hire did not dare bring.

Is this the dumb taxation that blocks import of aluminum from Mozambique for French manufacturers, but allows Chinese products from the same aluminum tax free?

Yeah, that was surely a success.

It is called beta plus decay, the opposite of a beta minus. In beta minus, a neutron decays into a proton and an electron, which has the proton charge (and also an anti-neutrino, which conserves the lepton charge of the electron). In beta plus, this is reversed, a proton decays to a neutron, emits a positron (preserves electric charge) and a neutrino (negates the anti-lepton charge of the emitted positron).

Or somesuch.

By exporting CO2 "polluters" elsewhere to a large extent.

I'm all for policies and the EU is the leader in this, at a significant expense (and some questionable actions), but even EU-level measures applied worldwide are insufficient to do much.

The problem is one of time. The deposition of CO2 is already mostly done. What's coming up are the effects, and these are inevitable, unstoppable and yet happening on so long enough timescales, so people will discount them.

If I may use an analogy, we're meters away from a nuclear bomb which has already exploded, the fission has ended, the fission pieces, the gammas and the neutrons are leaving the nucleus. In 5 or 10 microseconds we'll be clobbered. But we live short lives, and on the microsecond scale we have a lot of time. But our societies, who live on the explosion scale are fucked.

That's where we are.

1. It ain't called "proof", it is called evidence.

2. The orange shitgibbon has lied so many times that even an average moron on slashdot should be able to find such evidence without trouble. There is even a wikipedia page on the subject. You must be below average.

3. Trump's best pal is a well-known pedo rapist, and trump himself has acknowledged time and time again they shared "common values" such as "interest in women, preferably young". A true confession, if there ever was one.

4. Trump has repeatedly accused people of treason. Any moron can look up the specific quotes and then apply trump's definition to trump himself. He checks out nicely. You would not want to use double standards and apply a different definition, right?

5. Trump was found civilly liable for sexual abuse that constitutes rape in common parlance.

So it is confirmed: Trump's a lying pedophilic traitorous rapist. And who but an utter cunt can be all these at once?

Cry me a fucking river.

Yes, and literally all policies so far have been dismal - inefficient, performative, misaligned or otherwise ineffective.

We make things worse, more of us die, the issue is blunted. Make it bad enough, civilization fails, lots of people die, and the surviving population will be environmentally worse individually but few enough in number it won't be a major climate factor.

Then the Sun expands, bakes the planet sterile, and possibly burns it into a puff of plasma.

Long term it's a losing game, but short term we could play to win if we didn't lack the required strategic thinking as a species.

Indeed. Most people are not educated enough to get that comparison though.

There is no absolute protection against user stupidity. Incidentally, banks here will refuse that login. They require machines to be registered for online banking. And they have time-outs.

You've not seen bacteria in a petri dish shit themselves to death?

Yeah, something similar.

Too bad for the trees, the bees and the beasts.

Not at all. It is on everyone who refused to take action in the past 50 or so years since we've known what's up.
