Well you can always ask…

Sartre would disagree, but then Sartre was a professional philosopher.

Dont forget that other favorite “No you can’t have more hardware, these were fine in 2006 and they’re fine now! Just delete some old stuff like you IT people always do”

You can make condensed milk at home. You absolutely shouldn’t can it at home. That’s a pretty big difference.

Yes you can. Take milk, simmer for an hour. Thats basically it

Edit: step 3 would be NOT canning it. Keep it in the fridge like a normal person.

All 7 of them. The other 993 will upboat it for having a meme in the comment

I always buy dehydrated/condensed milk in cans, is that not normal?

Error-correction for dropped packets is also pretty shit.

Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes flashdrives hurtling down the highway.

Well, China, if you want a few chip-makers, i know a few slightly-used ones that used to belong to an old lady and have only ever been used for shopping trips.

losers love losers

you should place a solar pannels on your roof and make some money while also reducing your footprint far beyond what you see on the graph?

The average household of 2.1 people here (the Netherlands) produces 0.8 tons of CO2e from electricity per year, at the current power mix. So, reducing that to zero places you somewhere between colder washes and getting a hybrid (0.4 tons). Not nothing, but also not even past the left half of the chart.

Also, realistically, net-zero isn’t actually zero at all, you need to massively overproduce to truly offset your consumption.

Too lazy to photoshop, but the average dutch household produces 2.2 tons of CO2e for heating and 0.8 tons in electricity. The average household is 2.1 people, so call it 1 ton for heating, and .4 tons for electricity.

• So going completely off-grid (VERY hard) will place somewhere around equal to the “Buying green energy” bar (duh…).
• Just solar panels will rank around “Replace car with electric”.
• Switching to a heatpump is roughly similar.

Looking at a couple of sites shows a vegetarian diet produces something like 4-4.5 tons of Co2e a year, and vegan 3-3.5 tons. A “normal” diet ranges between 7 and 10 tons, probably depending on your definition of normal. Other sites list 1.5, 1.7 and 3.5 tons for vegan/vegetarian/regular.

The big gain seems to be dropping meat, with everything else* adding another 10% or so savings. But 1 tons of CO2 is roughly equivalent to driving your mid-sized (european mid-sized, that is) car for 5000km.

*These numbers are purely diet. I can’t seem to find anything for a whole lifestyle.

eventual grandchildren aren’t your choice.

Not having children is a pretty certain method of not having grandchildren though. You can compared the local/national/worldwide average reproduction odds against the certainty of not having (great)grandchildren.

In Dutch it’s the same, but we just say “KNO-arts”, for “throat, nose and ear”.

Traditional sails are also fragile, complex, expensive and very labour intensive even with electric winches. A fully rigged ship is exceptionally complicated and knowing how to work one takes huge skill and knowledge, and that’s not even mentioning what to do when something goes wrong. And of course, it’s much slower as well.
