I'd still be looking it up as the husband. I wouldn't want to risk giving my kid a name that sounds good but has a terrible etymology.
The abolitionists didn't hold enough sway. While some argue that there were seven, based upon whatever criteria, there were far more people involved in the founding of the country. Due to the pre-industrial economics of the time, slavers had significant financial influence. The US Civil War was seen as inevitable by the likes of Thomas Paine, another abolitionist and founder - not codifying universal suffrage was just kicking the can down the road.
In a way it does. Just ask crabs.
That's a Mr/Mrs Garrison from South Park take right there.
Unfortunately, I think much of it is unavailable as they don't want to further enrich Weinstein.
Being more specific, I basically mean object permanence. It won't cease to exist without humans. Even that mythical Edenic paradise is an anthropocentric concept. Nothing like that existed for the majority of the earth's history, nor did anything like it exist in most regions of the planet. Most known life is optimized for environments that are not particularly human-safe.
Nowhere do I suggest any of those things. In fact, opting out of anthropocentricism is breaking with views held throughout much of human history and used as an excuse to do nothing.
“actually, personal water consumption is a factor. . .”
If one is honest and looks at the data, personal scale water consumption is nearly meaningless.
Back to the main point though, I do not intend at all to brush off the destruction of habitats capable of supporting complex life but to be clear about the stakes. The world will continue to exist without us - we're not that special. If we don't work to stop a handful of sociopaths from rendering the world incapable of supporting human life, we're screwed.
Nah mate. It would absolutely catastrophic. But the scope of who it would be catastrophic for is limited to the minority of known life. Humanity is insignificant to the universe but significant to us.
IMO, it is a distinction that is worthwhile. The universe is not anthropocentric. It doesn't give two shits about humanity (it's not, to our knowledge even sentient). Humanity is completely insignificant to nearly anything but humans. To me, it puts into perspective that noone and nothing in this indifferent universe is coming to save us from ourselves. It's up to us.
Life will continue without us, just like it did before us. If the entirety of the world's nuclear arsenals are used, there's a good chance that microbes like Deinococus radiodurans will survive to evolve into new forms of complex life. The human species is far more fragile than the planet.
You could be sharing my experience. I'm still working at it and need to adjust meds some but getting treatment was life changing.
Here's the carnage! Was running a long print and saw this when I went to check on it. Was running the stock Ender 3 hotend with a Capricorn tube fix for nearly 5 years. Served me well. I haven't yet been able to remove the white PLA. To see the full damage but, I'm pretty sure that the threads are gone.
Guess it's time to upgrade the hotend.
Howdy folks!
After letting my dactyl manuform build flounder for awhile, while I try to figure out a good way to reduce the tedium of hand wiring, I got tired of typing on a terrible KB. So, I ordered a Kyria v3 PCB kit and have started the tedium of adding Mill-Max sockets.
Wish me Luck!
Thank you. Came here to say this. Microkernels are great for limited scope devices like microcontrollers but really suffer in general computing.
