    I thought the fan theory was the route included a near pass by a black hole or something, and 12 parsecs would be the shortest “sane” route that didn’t either

    1. Require bravery/luck verging on stupidity
    2. God tier course charting to get the orbital routing just right

    So to do it in less than 12 would just be generally unheard of










  • I’m all for packaging minimization but I also acknowledge that if I, the consumer seek single serving products, I’m pretty glad they are food safe and isolated. This is the part where “reduce” in the recycling slogan can manifest: what’s the absolute minimum packaging needed to keep a consumer safe?

    I’m not saying companies shouldn’t ever be responsible for their packaging waste, it’s a good idea. But I think municipal trash is meant to be that answer, in that rather than every company managing their own streams of returns, the locality does it, and sorts them by general type for efficiency/efficacy.

    Therefore I think it best to factor waste costs from the company into that centralized system, so efficiencies of scale can manifest. This allows for better oversight and lower overall costs. The game is not allowing companies to be absent from this stage.

    With acknowledgment that increased costs would land on the consumer one way or another, I’d conclude by saying centralized waste management needs to be better funded, and more sophisticated recycle/reuse systems implemented with those new funds.





  • American here. I’m legit sad that we aren’t represented among our brothers, we lost the right due to our behavior

    It feels like we called Grandma a bitch at Thanksgiving dinner and the cousins just threw us out

    Edit for clarity: I’m not suggesting the US is part of the EU, instead highlighting that we are distantly APART from Europe now (because of our current behavior) and that sucks.

    Final edit: this was either poorly worded or poorly received. This was an American speaking to a generally western, freedom loving shitposting group of planefuckers, where I was lamenting the state of American relations with Europe, and that a group of former allies feels the legitimate need to band together in a time of American fuckery.

    I’m sorry some took this as butting in or assuming to be a member of the EU or something. It wasn’t. It was an acknowledgement of a low in relations, and this American’s sadness in that.

    Canards are sexy.
