Nationalise energy production.

We'd run of our uranium that's economical to extract using current technology and at current prices. All known mineral reserves could power the world on exclusively nuclear energy for several thousand years at least.

Per megawatt of generated energy, coal releases significantly more radioative waste into the environment than nuclear does.

It's not weird that it specifies a computer program, the use of the term to mean the standard option comes from computing. It's the value chosen when the computer defaults, as in fails to pay it's debt (in this case debt being the value it was looking for).

I don't think there's any evidence to suggest that people prefer meat because it's the default option and not the other way around.

Old bioware was a force to be reckoned with

He 100% threw the rock

It's a direct sequel to a bioware game.

The main problem with Cyberpunk was the drive to release the game on older consoles. The effort consumed dev time and didn't really work even after that.

The game on release on platforms that could actually run it was great, despite a few bugs.

The ol' head in the sand approach

You could, but the only reason to do so would be to accommodate a small minority's ethical dietary decisions, which is the opposite of a default.

No one's going to chose the slop so there's no point in having it.

As for subway, their menu is largely determined by sales. They do trial other options occasionally, and the ones that are popular stay.

Just a slope argument at this point. Laws are influenced by precedent, and the introduction of one blasphemy law is precedent to introduce others.

Blasphemy laws for the modern day.

I respect every person's right to not be persecuted for characteristics that are outside their control.

People absolutely should be persectued, at least socially, for holding certain beliefs and advocating for certain ideas.

The units of time we use come from a bronze age civilisation that used base twelve instead of base ten. They'd count on their hands using the finger joints of one for single digits, and then the joints of the other for multiples.

Humans don't need anything but nutrient slop to survive, but the prisons aim for something better largely because it keeps riots down.

Attraction is a chemical process, long term relationships without respect are doomed to failure

Why would the default be the diet of a small minority?

Is paganism not just cosplay? There's no continuity of tradition for pagan religions, they just picked it up because it was cool a few decades ago.

I can find interesting things in my life without resorting to delusion

But how can you respect someone who legitimately believes in magic?
