I've always been interested by his family winery and the family who've worked for his family for generations. Like who owns the land? What do the workers get for working? If real organic wine is a premium product that can't be adequately replicated does that hint at a two-tier market?

Same with trains, in the UK swampy famously protested the building of a high speed rail line because it's construction resulted in the destruction of an old growth forrest
It's the best map for finding businesses in my town, well OSM which it uses is because I updated them all using street complete and the web interface. You can be part of the effort to make free solutions the best solutions by upgrading your own areas info.
Hey he covered it; how dare you try and make him sound like a crazy old man talking nonsense... here's what he said,
“Wow school lunches up 65 per cent, how can a family afford this? But look at this over here, what a nice job...”
“I think I’m going to take some of them back to my cottage and have a lot of fun.
“Like the Cheerios, I haven’t seen Cheerios in a long time, I’m gonna take them back with me.”
I'm just trying to answer the asked question, space is absolutely huge and satellites are very small. If you want to think about vectors and potential debris from collision those are other questions - them all moving at different speeds and directions increases the chance of overlap but not into significant numbers and of course they don't just throw them up and hope for the best they know what they're doing and can maneuver to avoid problems.
The theorized great space collision resulting in a field of debris is a valid concern but a bit of a y2k fear mongering type story that everyone tells because it's fun not because it's actually going to cause problems. China has already run tests of techniques to deorbit trash and it worked well. Was there a need we could solve the problem, but there's unlikely to be a problem with everyone so aware of it and with efforts to mitigate potential causes.
You don't understand the difference between altering a precariously balanced system which involves billions of.moving parts and starting something relatively simple from new?
Sorry I didn't realize you thought Elon is the only person involved in space travel, that would explain why your opinion is so myopic j guess.
And yes this is science, that's what science is - studying and learning about how things work so that we know what the effect of our actions will be and what options we have available.
The uk isn't like Texas where you get gunned down for trespassing or shoplifting, life and peace is valued over property. Please don't try and export your capitalist obsession for property over people to the rest of the world.
Yeah, when you actually look at a lot of protest movements lemmy blindly supports they're deeply problematic in many ways, of course people want easy answers and glib heros so they'll get mad if you try and demonstrate nuance.
Yeah, also paper plate and bottled water sales would be at zero if people were worried, so.many industries wouldn't exist if we cared.
Everyone thinks it's someone else's job, everyone thinks it's a problem for other people to solve. 'I only contribute a little, it's the system thats the real problem...- ignoring that the system is just what we call the result of everyone's individual choices
