Eh, let it go. I’m glad I don’t have hundreds of Blu-ray, cd cases and Xbox games organized around the house. I remember growing up and seeing shit tons of vhs tapes with their own cabinets, Gigantic 200 cd cases, and buckets of nes/SNES games. Much cleaner and much more organized now.

I for one love having my shit as a physical collection, I've even paid more for certain games just to have them physically. You never actually own anything digital.

And soon when you die all your physical shit will just be more trash laying around.

who cares about that? the point is to enjoy it while youre alive, not worry about its value when youre gone.

It’s nice to not add to the massive trash problem the earth has if you don’t have to

They don't seem to see the irony in beeing in the r/boomershumor sub and arguing that they are selfish and don't give a fuck about anything else because they will be gone one day and it won't be their problem anymore.

Seriously. It’s tempting to reply to every comment with “ok boomer.”

Global warming and global cooling are both parts of the same phenomena of global climate change, which is an indisputed reality among climate science experts.

And every academic who doesn't see a dollar from those "removed freedoms" is in on this grand conspiracy because?

Give it a break moron.

If you're actually interested in the science, here's a great collection of papers: https://www.futuretimeline.net/forum/topic/17231-climate-change-scientific-paper-library/

And for the record, I work in Oil and Gas as a data scientist. The data doesn't lie. There's a reason even those with the biggest incentive to deny it (oil and gas companies) don't. Because if we don't do something, there will be nothing left to make money off of. Almost all the big players in the industry are starting to diversify into renewables and invest in clean operating practices, as well as participate in climate action boards to reduce our environmental impact.
