Just drive your F150 to the grocery store, recycle your unrecyclable plastic and don't worry about it.

4600 in CSGO and 800 in Borderlands 2 are my highest. Most games I just play once and move on though but when I'm replaying games I'm usually listening to something in the background.

You're right it looks like it is. Guess that's where the confusion is coming from.

We won't exercise monopoly power immediately we promise. Please let us merge.

It's not rumors. I tried it last night and they're trickling back in slowly.

Edit: Looks like it's just from subs that were private and got unprivated. Those comments couldn't be deleted and end "reappearing".

Since they federated now

Yeah, I don't take it to be more than one guy's musings and theories based on his own research.

I'm not at the halfway point yet but I think so if you're interested in the minute details. The book starts of by saying it is not a racist treatise and so far has stuck to that. It is over 2 decades old so I'm sure some of the conclusions accepted at the time may have changed drastically since. I've heard of some criticisms of it but nothing really damning from what I can tell.

Either way, I think it's worth the read if you are interested in pop anthropology/archeology in a fairly accessible book. Even if the overall explanation may seem reductive or misguided to some.

Guns, Germs and Steel. Still making my way through it as it can get a little dry but talks about how environment and subsequently food production capacity shaped different populations that spread across the planet and how that translates into the modern world.

A nice homage to the Graceland style.

You might be looking at the 196/195 (https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/196) community where the one rule is: You must post before you leave. With how the rule works it generates a lot of posts that put rule in the title.
