Thank you.

Isn't it pretty standard to consider "local" to mean not remote or external? Local storage means storage on the machine, not attached via network or plugged into an external port. Localhost is the ip for the computer in question, not a remote one.

It doesn't mean "to say something ..."

So..."if it becomes clear without vagueness or ambiguity that the user is ..."

I don't think it's about preventing such requests only if the request is clear. It's about being certain about what is being requested before censoring. Also, "explicitly clear" is redundant. Wording might be improved with "unambiguously" rather than "explicitly".

As T.S Eliot put it, humankind cannot bear very much reality.

The extreme global average temperatures haven't happened in the entire history of human civilization, so the kind of evidence you might be expecting is tough to come by. But there are dozens of papers suggesting what might happen using trend projection and knowledge of agricultural and sociopolitical constraints, if you care to look. There is also the fact that heat related deaths are already in the hundreds of thousands per year and the trend is upward.

The fact that someone finds it unreasonable to think that an extreme climate would cause extreme mortality is ... interesting.

But because you think that particular consequence is overstated in the article, you're suggesting that the article itself is a lie? The title refers to the lie that we still have more time and that we don't need to get to work immediately to address climate change. It's about the overall lackadaisical attitude toward the climate emergency.

You seem to be suggesting a dismissal of the article's core message.

So, are you suggesting that we actually have plenty of time to deal with climate change, and that things like "Net Zero by 2050" correctly convey the severity of the situation?

What is your assessment of the current year number of deaths attributable to climate change, and expected number of deaths at a 3°C above baseline global average temperature?

Use whatever words you want but I think that's clearly violent and it's clearly a gang, which by definition is "a group of persons working together" or even more specifically, "a group of persons working to unlawful or antisocial ends". In this case the newly formed gang is certainly unlawful.

I guess I'd rather have the state maintain a monopoly on violence.

However, this is plant-based protein, not pure way isolate. A plant-based protein powder from mung beans for example isn't going to be 100% protein. Chickpea powder contains roughly 20% protein.

So I don't know if that helps at all, but it doesn't seem as bad as you and you might be suggesting.
