I’m sorry, are you saying women’s rights were better in the 1700s or wars didn’t happen? Or that people had less problems? Or that the ruling class shared power?
I don’t mean to offend, but this is an insanely naive view of the world.

A lot less humans existed for a lesser period of time without electricity.
We used to burn oil and other fuels for lamps, raw wood for heat, raw sewerage was everywhere if not released untreated into waterways. All of this was hugely polluting and detrimental to health. Please don’t kid yourself that there were better times in the 1700s.
4D chess?
Awesome, thanks for the info. Really appreciate it!
Much appreciated. There’s a few brands relatively new to the EU e.g Haier. Any thoughts on their quality? Or is this something you really can’t go cheaper on?
You mean more frequently meaning smaller loads, right? At the moment it’s about one 8kg load every 1.5 days, so in winter it’s not long enough to dry. Might try a fan setup in the immediate term though and see how it goes.
I looked at those and figured the additional cost, plus only one load being washed at a time may be a bit annoying… But realistically, I’ll have to see if one load per day is enough. Thanks!
EU based, but thanks for the message either way!
Hard disagree. Tipping should be abolished and restaurants forced to pay a living wage should be the only regulation around tipping.
The 5 year price graph is much nicer to view.
I have a friend like you whom I love to send into the chasm that is his own mind. The physicist has the attitude needed to deal with these thoughts - does it even matter? Ultimately, until we know our existence is false, we might as well keep on appreciating what we experience, right?
I do not have the knowledge to doubt your points here, but there are countless people who smoke and do not end up on artificial breathing apparatus in their later years.
I do not like being around smokers and understand it is not good for you, but your text here sounds very extreme.
Yeah, many Europeans will pay extra and read labels carefully when selecting kids food.
Apparently the Spanish translate Wallaby. TIL
This is identical for online brokers in the stock market. They win based on the number of trades, thus they make as much money in bust as in boom years with people exiting positions.
Does it say that in the article? I don’t understand who this person is or why this discredits everything that Reuters as a news provider does.
No idea about this dude, but literally in the article you link, they reference Zenz as an independent researcher who says:
“Although it is speculative…”
Before providing his estimate and also provides other details which appear to support the story, but the article does not present as clear, hard “facts”. Also, the title isn’t some clickbait trash, and even directly says “could”.
I can recommend Reuters, given it still has a little bit of sports and opinion, but I find it’s good at providing neutral facts and sources it’s knowledge from appropriate experts for its opinion pieces.
It only lacks in providing local level news, where I turn to my country’s national broadcaster.
Your post history is outrageously dramatic. I would advise you to find a healthy hobby or two, preferably away from the internet.
I would argue that your perspective is a narrow one and you need to change what info you are consuming. My personal take (if you have any interest):
Most of the people on this world are not rich enough to be part of daily traffic jams. They are just trying to survive and enjoy life with what they have.
Current resource competition is driven by profit seeking and not bourne out of necessity (i.e. we’re not “competing” in the traditional sense, where countries at war are doing so to feed their people etc… At least, not yet.)
There is definitely more space and resources available for more people, if we learn to better distribute what we have - the how of this, while keeping everyone happy, is the billion dollar question.
You can choose to live in the jungle by yourself if you want, no one is (hopefully) forcing you to take part in working etc.
If you can, you should go travel more. If you can’t, go volunteer some of your time to your community. It tends to clear my “the world is going to shit” thoughts. Sure, there’s problems everywhere, and we should fight for the ones we feel are important, but there is also a lot of great things happening.
