  • Because one of them (Earth) is based on reality, and the other is a poorly done conceptual render because no human actually knows the shape of the landmasses on that planet on account of having never been there.

  • It doesn't surprise me that much honestly, even on Lemmy there are a lot of right-wing people.

  • Those dumbasses build their houses right on the beach, they will ultimately be hit very hard by climate change.

  • Potatoes are also pretty easy to grow. I think a lot of people grow them as well.

  • Yeah that's really shitty, just another shitty aspect of capitalism protecting businesses and not people. Actually actively screwing people over for money.

  • I agree that people should definitely keep a good store of non-perishable foods in case of hard times, but you also should try to grow food as well. I don't think anyone is trying to say it'll be easy, like anything at first it is difficult. It's definitely worth trying though, if you can and have the space. Like I said, don't go all in as your only option, keep non-perishable foods on hand, like canned goods, or dried goods. If you're able to grow your own food you get fresh fruits and veggies, and you won't use up as many canned goods.

  • And even with prosthetic limbs, access might be limited based on profitability.

    Let's also not ignore the fact that many modern prosthetics just kind of suck in general. They're getting better but they still aren't great.

  • I mean holes in ears healing and closing up is one thing, entire limbs regrowing is another, and we already know from salamanders and lizards that things can go wrong:

    Who's to say a regrown human arm won't have similar issues, possibly even internal issues only humans would notice due to having opposable fingers.

  • And often have to work there too, which is even worse.

  • It's an industrial district, I don't think they offer housing there. And if they do it's only for those who work there.

  • They're like puppies of the sea, just with stingers.

  • They are friendly little bugs.

  • Interesting argument, mind backing it up with a source?

  • Hot take: These guys never bothered me. I know some people are strongly bothered and annoyed by Boxelder bugs but they don't annoy me.

  • I guess it's possible, there is a hypothesis that the solar system has a second faint red or brown dwarf star orbiting in the furthest outskirts of the solar system. I'm not sure I buy this hypothesis though, there is so little evidence. And it would be one of the more strange binary systems out there (binary stars are usually close together).

  • Crazy that they boast about having an overactive amygdala but deny it when people say they are acting crazy and paranoid.

    Also, side note: conflation of liberal and leftist as if they're the same is kind of a pet peeve of mine. They are very much not the same thing. Those who know know.

  • We should be banning, or more accurately, phasing out combustion engines for all vehicles including government and emergency vehicles. If anything should be EVs these should be it. Also consider that American fire trucks are massively oversized compared to ones in the rest of the world. They don't need to be that big, and thus more compact European-style ones could easily be replaced with electric equivalents.

  • Also there's a specific type of reactor that is optimal because it allows for more easily recycling the spent fuel to use it again, and unfortunately these have not been built as much as the other type of reactor.
