Anti-nuclear people in here arguing about disasters that killed a few k people in 50 years. Also deeply worried about nuclear waste that won't have an impact on humans for thousands of years, but ignoring climate change is having an impact and might end our way of life as we know it before 2100.

They're bike-shedding and blocking a major stepping stone to a coal, petrol and gas free future for the sake of idealism.

The biggest enemy of the left is the left

I think you need to watch The Good Place.

Thanks, but pfffff. So I have to carry around another tiny thing I can lose easily. No thanks.

I simply cannot understand that decision. Am I supposed to throw away all my headphones now because of this dumb, Apple initiated fad? That big vendors like Samsung and OnePlus follow the inane "courage" displayed by Apple because they also want to be "premium" is understandable, but that smaller vendors, especially the fair phone do it is just dumb.

Apple creates problems to sell you a solution

Aren't we lucky to have the brits to make fun of for such things?

Can't you just open a new private tab or window for every video that you watch?

So when you buy a phone made from slave labor, are ignorant of the fact until someone tells you about it, but buy another phone built from slave labor, are you malicious?

Why don't we eat humans?

If I don’t murder people, people will still get murdered. Therefore it doesn’t make a difference if I choose not to murder people?

No. First of all the tenses are wrong, then the equivalence is wrong.

If people stopped getting murdered, they'd still be killed by illness, parasites, old age, accidents. Basically the loss of life will not stop simply because humans stop taking that life. Are you going to start telling lions not to kill gazelle? Or parasites, viruses, and bacteria not to infest hosts?

Why is it OK for other animals to prey on other living beings, but not humans? You think humans are cruel? Read about what happens in the animal world. Hyenas eating buffalo alive, snakes eating their prey whole (while alive), parasites of course needing live hosts: one eats a fishes tongue and takes its place, another eats a whale's eyes, yet another takes over the motor functions of ants and forces it clamp down on a plant where the ant dies of hungers and the fungus grows from the corps, the parasitic wasp that lays its eggs within tarantulas and the worms eat the tarantula alive, and so many more gruesome ways to die in the animal kingdom.

That is false. Monkeys cultivate ants to eat them IINM and ants raise other aphids to do the same.

How is this different to react, angular, vue, etc.?

Don't assume malice when ignorance is an apt explanation.
