There’s more money to be made keeping it illegal. More risk, more reward.

Most of the UK illegal weed is produced by a monopoly producer. There’s the odd hippy growing their own, but the stuff the most prolific dealers sell all comes from the same source, up and down the country.

It looks daft now with a little hindsight, but we’re kind of still in the foresight stage for the overall life of IPv6.

It’s a bit more nuanced. If you’re in North America, it’s more likely than not that you’ll have a Californian tomato. If you’re in Asia, it’s probably Chinese. If you’re in Europe there’s a lot of clout for Italian tomatoes, but you’ll probably see a lot of local produce front and centre, with maybe some budget options from another country or in the off-season.

But ultimately water shortages in Cali are going to have little effect on Europe. Prices on the shelve are so far removed beyond cost that a global market price rise caused by the shortage won’t have a massive effect on the price consumers pay - we’re already paying as much as they can get away with charging, at this point it doesn’t really matter much what excuse they use to raise the price because they were already planning to do that anyway.

Eh, the author definitely has more responsibility than he makes out. He’s fully aware that it wasn’t suitable as a backup for all of his stuff (like the book he was writing and all the tutorials), but acts like that shouldn’t matter because he wanted to use it that way to make his desktop workflow better.

That’s the stator winding of the motor. If you put a magnet in there and hook it up to AC you could make it spin.

Exquisite.

So in other words you wrongly assumed I was in the US and that my tomatoes would therefore likely be Californian.

Did you give up making clever posts as well?

^{Sorry I couldn’t resist}

Also the actual roses were in the bushes on the side.

I’m pretty sure they did actually get rid of a lot of the flowers anyway and got rid of things they shouldn’t have, but the layout of it isn’t so drastically changed and the lawn can easily be replaced.

Something like 45% of the world’s fruit comes from our state alone.

This is obviously not true. Maybe it’s true across North America, but California does not produce 50% of the world’s produce.

American produce is not found on the shelves of European supermarkets. Even big franchises like Dominos, they source more locally than that.

China produce the most tomatoes in the world, at 37% of the global supply.

Where most your tomatoes and Artichokes come from.

Pretty sure my tomatoes don’t come from California lol.

Lol you know nothing about distribution of anything, apparently. Water doesn’t generally travel that far. The supplies you’re suggesting the US Military would take aren’t anywhere near the US.

All of this is precluded by you using a browser that is authorised and approved by the government.

That’s really fucking weird…

I know, right?!

Lol the rest of the world doesn’t bother with AC, you think they’re going to be concerned by US water?

Global like the world baseball league.

You wooshed on the joke. Almost all of his children were conceived through artificial insemination. Certainly the most recent ones.

It doesn’t have to be, but the businesses making it claim it needs to be.

Fuck off with your device based verification system. That’s just the same service, but as a more invasive app installed on your phone.

Instead of scanning a face or ID and uploading it to a service, we’re expected to run unverified closed source code on the device we carry everywhere in our pockets?!

It isn’t about protecting children. It’s about exploiting adults.

A majority of people, both children and adults, will successfully be exploited by this. Even if it is eventually repealed (which is unlikely, there are businesses set up dependent on this - we can’t deny investors their profits!), it’s already happening now.
