It's pretty hilarious that any person would call the totalitarian, chronic food shortage stricken, ostracized North Korea "the Good Korea"

Kinda stretching the meaning of pollution here aren't we?

A lot of channels exist as a natural extension of an already existing business

I don't know what that means

I'm not going to support Google and the mass dregs that create clickbait garbage and predatory content that takes advantage of the algorithm in order to make as much money from ads as possible.

Then pay and show Google that their business model needs to change. If you pay, then their incentive is not to maximize watch time, which is probably why you have a lot of clickbait trash. Or don't watch YouTube.

Google isn't entitled to make money by simply hosting reaction videos and hyperbolic political commentary.

And you aren't entitled to watch videos without ads and without paying. Choose one.

Funny thing is that this comes from middle class people. There's still VVS and flawless diamonds which are significantly more expensive. But they can't afford one that looks any good. Given the choice they'd absolutely burn their money to buy those though.

There's a bit more nuance here. Fron this article, the plan is to treat the water to decontaminate it, then dilute it as much as possible because the treatment cannot remove some isotopes which could cause problems. The 30 year plan is actually a good thing since this would dilute the isotopes further making the risk minimal according to IAEA and the US. There are some independent labs that voice concerns for more data though.

The main issue is that the tanks that are supposed to hold the contaminated cooling seawater are filling up quick, so they need to add some space. Unless there's a better plan, it's either that or the tanks overflow.

I think it's inevitable that lemmy attracts these kinda people. At least for me, I got out of Reddit not just because of the API decisions, but because I just don't like the idea of having 0 control over my services. The API thing was just a wakeup call.

I'd say that I'm "part of the problem" in terms of shilling for FOSS software, but I was the same back on Reddit. So it's gonna be my type of people that come in here.

Either that or tankies

I use my dad's basement to store my server computer and I have a lemmy instance there. And my dad works for the FBI as a janitor (he's old so he bought the house for cheap).
