Soft wood for residential comes from plantation tree farms. The trees are a crop just like corn, you grow them, cut them then regrow them.

The bigger issue is the old growth in bc. The younger trees in the boreal forest can be responsibly harvested. But old growth never comes back.

Reply to Guess which can opener still works? L to R- 30 + years old, 3 years old, 6 months old … planned obsolescence or crappy design (of course they increase in price tag from L-R) by Torvabrocoli
Its the cutting wheel vs the simple plough.
The wheel will lose its edge over time, but the plough can just power thru with more force:

On the holes on the arms and torso I would pop some patches. Plug the holes and add customization.

I prefer full grail leather couches, they last much longer. Handel stains better.

Pretty much all these companies either made bad calls, had bad models, or had literal insane restructuring.

Reply to comment by wwarnout in Paintballs to be shot at Dutch wolves in bid to make them less tame by FeedTheOx
Because this is a good idea and often used for animal conservation.
The wolves associate humans with food right now, so you shoot them with paint balls ( painful but harmless) they now associate humans with getting a blue butt. They avoid humans.

Its like shining a spot light on the meth head that’s pooping in your lane way. Harmless, annoys them, they poop on the next street over

Reply to Alaska Airlines flight delayed after 2 pilots have 'professional disagreement', refuse to fly together by OyVeyzMeir
This is good, bad communication can lead to fatal errors. Having the crew be professional enough to realize they do not get along and would not be a good pair to fly is very responsible. I respect the crew for choosing not to fly.

For me the case melts much to easily on modern toasters.
Get a bagel stuck for 2 seconds and you get melted plastic.
