Seems like the sort of thing governments should be incentivising.

Who knows what their intentions are, but they're still spreading a good message. And to be fair there is a difference between a fairly lax work from home policy and wanting to work from home permanently. It could also just be a smaller company where they don't really have official policies for things that haven't come up yet.

I feel like you're just having imaginary arguments in your head with people who don't exist. This is a net win for everyone because it means less people suffering in extreme conditions and it also puts pressure on companies and people with money to slow climate change.

Maybe there's some weird people out there who want others to suffer but I doubt that's anywhere near representative of climate activists.

Ahh, that makes sense.

O, how you can't have the alternative app stores on the google app store? I mean I suppose.

I don't understand how they lost against Apple but won against Google - which actually does allow you to download alternative app stores.

You don't own the thing you bought!

This is true, China certainly hasn't helped the situation, although from where they were I can understand them wanting to capitalise on it. I just don't like it when people blanket say that things made in China are bad. The reputation is obviously there for a reason, but it's almost just as often western companies that share the blame for general low quality, mass produced, disposable things.

Understandable, have a nice day.

I have no love for Apple, I'm just referring to the build quality.

China just makes what people ask it to. So many places moved all their production to China for cheap labour, and most companies trying to skimp on one thing are also going to skimp on others like materials and quality control. iPhones are also made in China and most people consider them to be high quality. The problem is more just capitalism than China specifically.
