I still burn CDs… my ancient vehicle has a multi-disc changer and doesn’t require my phone to be on, so I like having the best quality I can get before I do the burning.

I would say that depends on a person’s situation, sitting behind a computer in America and seeing things that go bad, it’s easy for me to see them as dysfunctional. If I were sitting in Darfur or Sudan starving to death and they managed to get a convoy of food to my location, I’d probably see them as making life better even if I’m not happy with some of them doing bad things.

I guess it’s I think too often they tend to do things in a way that is less than efficient. Not being party to the myriad of laws they have to cut through to get aid to these places, I’m not sure what could be done better there, I’m very unhappy with the sexual abuse claims and how nothing seems to be done about it. So I guess it’s they are insufficient.

Five countries with veto power on the UN Security Council control everything, and they spend almost all their time bickering with each other because they all want to be the big dog at the table. Sadly, most of those are currently involved in actions that the Security Council should be trying to stop, not engage in.

The UN Member States send somebody that represents whatever current administration is in power, not necessarily the citizens of the countries it’s supposed to represent. If I’m not mistaken a proposal was made in the late 90s about forming a Parliament Assembly but that went nowhere so we are stuck with the General Assembly whose votes mean nothing.

The sex scandals involving UN Peacekeepers. When Peacekeepers arrive, sexual abuse of children tends to go up. How do they do nothing about this?

The UN doesn’t function; some aid gets where it needs to be, but there have been past scandals with that from what I remember. I find the UN to be dysfunctional and set up to fail.

I bought it, but I only have about 9 hours into it so I’m no expert on it, still getting used to it really, part of that “play time” is idle as I do other things while it’s in the background.

EWR is still my favorite booking sim. TEW is just too much, but ProWrestling Sim on Steam is showing some promise I think.

It says they believe that mammoths, bison, horses, and reindeer will trample the grass, knock down trees and compact the snow which will cool the ground, based on a small 2020 study in Siberia that showed places that kept those animals, minus mammoths, had lower soil temps.

I think a much larger test is in order before I buy that’s going to save the permafrost.

I’m not saying it’s good to buy knockoffs, but the right knockoff Jersey on DHGate is sometimes better than the real thing, especially now fanatics have control of pretty much all US sports.

It sounds like they do want to reintroduce them…

Colossal has long claimed that mammoths, should they return to the grasslands in the planet’s northernmost reaches in sufficient numbers, would help slow down permafrost thaw.

They also would be elephant hybrids so not quite mammoths of old.
