There is merit to the huge variety of flavour combinations you could get from mixing two pods together, I do that quite often with whole coffee beans myself depending on what I feel like drinking. You could keep a dozen different pods stocked and make 66 combos from them.
Which you could also do by brewing two pods back to back with a regular pod machine, but I guess that would be too much effort.

Because that idiot gave them 44 billion for it.

It's simple really, the thing he owns is x.com, so he's just gonna... oh bugger, XCOM.

IIRC GTX 700 was the last nVidia generation to have XP driver support so you probably wouldn't be able to get it working properly anyway.

Changed to X Æ A-XII because numbers weren't legal, pronounced "X Ash A Twelve", nicknamed "X". And the second was Exa Dark Sideræl (pronounced sigh-deer-ee-el), now known just as "Y" or, according do Grimes, "?", because it's pronounced "Why".
So Musk has children called X and Y, two companies called SpaceX and X, and Tesla has Models S, 3 (E), X, Y.
Why Musk? No, not you, I'm asking your dad.

No you see, it's the rest of the world that just can't understand their special military operations.

Because it's doesn't make enough money.

Model X is called that because he wanted the models to spell SEXY - but Ford still owns "Model E" so he had to go with S3XY instead.

They officially removed that back in 2018.

Evolutionary switch back to the good old days of Slot 1 CPUs.

"Per capita" means per person, it has nothing to do with being mostly unpopulated. And it sure is that bad.
The exact figures differ slightly depending on who you ask, my source was Worldometer.

And if we split China into three smaller countries with a population of 450 million each, then those would only produce 3/4th the Co2 of USA each putting USA in the number one spot and solve climate change? China currently pollutes the most overall simply because it has the (second) biggest population, and that makes it look bad in the "per country" statistic. But per person they pollute less than half of what someone from the US, Australia or Canada do.

Another extreme example is India, it is on spot 3 on overall emissions, which means it produces a fuckton of CO2, even though per capita the figure is 1.89 - one person from the US produces as much CO2 emissions than 8 people from India. They are already well below the global average (5 tons per person) and even below the suggested target to counter climate change - 2.5 per person.

Exactly, the world doesn't care. The average co2 footprint per person globally is around 5 tonnes and as we've noticed, that is way too much for our planet to handle, one estimate is that we would need to drop that to below 2.5 tonnes.
China at 7.5 per person is a lot closer to than Canada at 18, Australia at 17, US at around 15 or Russia at 12. EU on average is close at around 8 I believe.

It's not ignoring the problem, you are complaining that we are running out of food because that group of a billion people are eating too much when you have over twice as much food on your own plates, and saying the solution is that they should be forced to eat even less.

Because China is a country with the third largest land mass with the second largest population in the world. But per capita, they produce half of what an American does.

SOMA with the safe mode that makes the monsters not attack you is still really creepy and an extremely atmospheric game, but without the amnesia type hide and run horror elements.

I purged my feed from over 150 subs I would spend the first and last few hours each day browsing and commenting from my bed to less than 20 I lurk every few days from my pc, almost all of which are gaming communities with no fediverse replacements.

One big issue is using single-stream recycling where everything goes into the same bin and it's the responsibility of the recycler to separate them all back to individual types. That is simply way too complicated and expensive for most of the materials so they just don't do it, and most of it simply goes into a landfill.

When the sorting is done by the consumer as it's done for example here in Finland where we recycle more than 90% of bottles and separate everything else into their own bins, you end up with much higher recycling rates. We do still lack enough processing capacity to deal with it all so a lot of it is burned for energy, but at least essentially nothing is going to a landfill any more.

Not OP, but back when I used Surfshark it had the ability to allow bypassing the VPN only for certain programs, IPs or URLs.
I mostly used it to get less latency with online games or getting access to them in the first place as often I'd encounter login servers that just didn't work though a VPN.

Technically none, because I'm a weirdo who uses a belt pouch.
It goes on the right side though as the phone is small enough (Pixel 4a) that I can use it one handed with my dominant right.
