They fear the lag between when the emissions escape from power plant chimneys and when new trees are able to absorb carbon will create a “carbon debt” which could accelerate the climate crisis in the near term

Exactly. Planting trees is the only thing that is positive in this equation.

Burning wood = more CO2

Cuting down trees = less carbon capture = more CO2 in the future

The only reduction happens at the place trees are planted and if that is in another country then you are not reducing your country's carbon footprint. And if the exporting country isnt planting trees than you might as well burn oil in regards to CO2 emissions.

That is true for any fandom. Why is being a fan if flavour x software bad but being a fan of flavour x car or flavour x sports team is OK?

I feel like inheritance is more something that keeps the rich rich and not something that makes the poor not poor. In a sense, other people inheriting things is (a part of) what keeps poor families poor.

Picture might be real but the person is not. No humanity inside. Just a husk wearing a human skin, spreading hate

This is about drones that are cheap and can shoot you with a bullet. Sure a +1M$ drone will kill you from behind the horizon, but a repurposed consumer drone operates on the same ranges as handheld guns and as such could be shot by a handheld gun. If you can hit it, which is why you use a shotgun to increase your ods

Insane people inherit wealth today and lead their "kingdom" to ruin only to be proper up by somebody else only to fail again.

We just haven't had this type of capitalism for long enough to see many Neros that had infinite power and then ruin it completely. We are in the holy Roman empire with 1000+ kingdoms constantly in strive with each other. Some are more powerful than others and ever so often one completely shits the bed because the inherited child is an absolute buffoon.

Perfect, let's also bind the certificate to a user session that is derived from a user fingerprint. That way the CA can track users across all sites

I assume they take digital maps when possible. Most countries will have digital maps of their territories, be it for military use or research or other. And many companies do to. Digital car navigation existed before google maps and logistics companies for sure had digital maps as well.

For some parts I am pretty sure they just scan paper maps and convert it by hand.

Of course all of that is some sort of "maping". My previous comment was slightly clickbaity. But the process is still, Maps first, satellite later and not the other way round.

Google doesn't map things. They take existing maps and then overlay the satellite images. Most likely Indonesia has more detailed Maos of the area than the Papuan side

The "any phone" is a lie. There are a couple of models for each brand at most that are eligible for trade in. Sometimes even only a single one.

Not really. There was a lawsuit that claimed they contain no tuna. A lab found no tuna DNA, a different lab did. The lawsuit shifted to "does not contain only this type if tuna".

Also highly processed food (especially after it was cooked) does not contain any DNA that is identifiable.

That's pretty hard to do. Just consider the executioners: everyone that wants that job is an asshole as they want to kill other people and would have to be killed themselves. And if you make somebody be the executioner that doesn't want to do it (a not asshole), then the people forcing them to do it are assholes as they are forcing somebody to be an executioner against their will!
