It's meant to be continuous production. Usually this kind of base is left on continuously and people will post the 10 hour production graphs

Companies pay for free returns by increasing their prices by about 10% to cover the cost of reverse logistics. Most of the items returned in online shopping end up in landfill.

Most of what it worthwhile to buy from Amazon can be found in a physical store or from the manufacturers website. Do a bit of research beforehand and it's very easy to be confident that you're not going to need to return what you buy.

Publicly owned means owned by the government. You are thinking of publicly traded companies, which are non public companies that have opened up stock ownership to the public

Human life is sacred. All the people who died because of denied insurance claims and corporate greed deserve their killer (corporate insurance CEOs) brought to justice. Unfortunately, this is the only way too accomplish that goal.

I was on Debian Sid for a year or 2 and gaming was working perfectly until I did an update that uninstalled my GUI and WiFi drivers. I'm on Mint now and it's been smooth sailing so far

I'm glad you found a natural computer to post with from inside your natural house. Seeing your dogshit opinions is funny.

Appeals to nature are not compelling because all of human progress and civilisation is built upon using technology to surpass nature. Just about everything we interact with in modern society isn't natural, why would we think that your idea of humans natural diet would be the ideal?

Veganism is an ethical stance, not religious. There are plenty of ethical stance that place restrictions on human behaviour that I'm sure you are totally on with, like when society tells you not to steal from or murder people. Are you prepared to argue against ethics as a whole?

You can also set it up to only sync certain "bookshelves' if you share a library or don't want to look at all the books on your kobo all the time

If you are able to see up Calibre to manage your eBook library, you can set it up to sync your library to your kobo. I followed this guide when I set it up for my wife. It does mess up the shop on the device, but our way enough to get DRM free ebooks elsewhere and just sync it to the kobo

The argument is that breeding more animals for the enjoyment of humans is bad, but the existing animals should be given as good of a life as we can. Since rescuing does not directly support the breeders, some vegans are OK with rescuing to give these animals a better life. Some vegans use similar logic to thrift wool sweaters for yarn, when they would not support buying new wool.

Taurine is usually singled or because it is the only nutrient required to meet the AACFO cat food guidelines that can not be readily sourced directly from plants.

Did you read the study they linked and really think that what you posted was the same kind of thing?
