Comparing Apple to Facebook? Apple is clearly morally superior. Facebook is the tool that supremacists of all colours use to spread propaganda that leads to genocides. They refuse to hire local moderators in any meaningful capacity to deal with this stuff.

When it’s pointed out that their algorithms are driving division and hate, they externally put out a memo along the lines of “we’re aware of a situation, and will do our best” and internally about “yay! Growth!”.

Say what you will about Apple, but they haven’t been complicit in genocides and the proliferation of fascism globally.

Edit: gotta love the people who downvote this. Which is it- you hate apple so much that hearing they aren’t complicit in genocide makes you angry, or is it that you’re unaware of Facebook’s track record?

Snow is a great insulator, actually.

In the small space you’ve got to yourself, your body heat can make a pretty comfortable cocoon. It’s actually recommended that if you find yourself stranded in the wilderness in winter, that you make yourself a little snow cave for shelter.

The crush isn’t as much of a concern, because that happens right at the beginning. Once you’re crushed by an avalanche, you’re not doing much more worrying.

The main concern is CO2 levels in your little cavity. Each breath you take makes the aid you’re breathing a bit more toxic.

Guy goes to a bar in Pamplona, and while he’s there, sees another guy eating a huge sausage. He checks the menu, but didn’t see anything there. He asks the bartender if he can get one, to which the bartender replies “we’re all sold out- come back next week, I’ll set one aside for you”.

The next week the guy goes back to the bar, and flags down the bartender. The bartender seems a bit nervous, but says he’ll get his sausage in a minute. When he comes back out, the guy sees that he’s brought a tiny nothing of a sausage.

“What the heck is this?” Asks the guy

The bartender replies, “Sorry, the bull won today”
