  • At some point, you have to recognize factory farming as a public policy decision rather than a retail choice

    It is both, and both affect each other. False dichotomy?

    a vegan community that satisfies itself with attaching blinders when they pass through the Bad Foods aisle at the grocery store is going to end up in the same place as the climate activist who only owns a bike.

    Strawmaning what being a vegan is. It is far from just turning a blind eye.

    The difference between the US and India is that if you go around trying to butcher cows in particularly devote areas of India, you're subject to serious political reprisals.

    You know that they eat plenty of other animals right? If you go there, meat and animal products are a very big part of the local food.

    I can't take these arguments seriously.

  • So just the "Appeal to futility" logical fallacy? I'm convinced!

    Every change starts somewhere. Yes, 0.001% of the population can be vegan and it most likely won't save a single slaughterhouse animal. But 1%? That's already significant enough to make at least some change, and 10%? That's already setting market trends and modifying industries, 50%?

    You get my point. You joining the current vegan population is significant! The vegan population is estimated to be 9% in india and mexico, 5% in Israel, 2% in the UK, 1.5% in the US, and estimated to be a total of 1%-3% of the global population. This is a movement that has probably saved more lives and more gas emissions than many others have.

  • The irony of environmental activists using the word "veganism" while not being vegan 😒 (being vegan is one of the most significant reduction to greenhouse emissions that is within your personal choice)

  • Cool Thing about that is that the theory is that it was selected for exactly to ward off non birds so that only birds eat it and the seeds go further!

  • Generally, the file size of the model is slightly larger than the VRAM needed. That's an easy way to estimate VRAM requirements.

  • Everyone is stealing your data, the US is doing so in the most intrusive and harmful way by far. If you don't mind using chatgpt, you shouldn't mind deepseek or qwen.

    But really, you should avoid all of them as much as possible.

  • That is why I always put any:any for ssh on all my firewalls!

  • Exactly 🤣

  • I think this is also a big part of the issue.

    Many countries are only recently in the phase of over consumption, meaning that parents and grandparents are often teaching kids early on to not waste food in a extremely unhealthy manner once you are in the context of over consumption.

    For some people their parents grew up in a time where wasting the last few bites of a meal, or letting food go bad, or not eating food that in front of you would actually be bad. Like, if you didn't eat the last few bites you are wasting a valuable resource that you might not get the privilege of eating tomorrow.

    But for example in many parts of the US right now, you are much better off learning to throw food away than to learn to force feed yourself.

    It is a shame that the world is like that, but the reality is that for many people today, being okay with throwing away food is an actually important part of staying healthy.

  • I am currently on Android as well, but in recent months with more and more OEMs disabling unlocking the bootloader, and google somewhat abandoning AOSP, it seriously seems like my next phone would be a Linux one, which is cool but it sucks.

  • I guess being unable to lose weight?

    It is ridiculous how privileged it is in the context of human history to actually struggle with too much calories.

  • I hate the fact that the more technologically literate you are, the more you run away from it.

    A smartphone with latest android, Gemini, google pay, a smartwatch, ChatGPT and a smart home?

    Nope, I would rather have a Linux phone that is mostly incompatible with what is expected of modern smartphones, no AI please! Google pay? Only cash or monero! My watch is very smart, it can telle the time for a few years without a recharge, and nothing else!

  • Bo burnham - 30

  • I can only imagine the frustration of early anteaters as they have to leave most of the ants because they didn't evolve long tongues yet.

    Like trying to get the last pringles with your hand

  • I watched that already, he seems mostly salty. He brings some good points but i was not convinced at all.

  • And what will we do when we get to December 4th, 292,277,026,596 AD, at 20:10:55 UTC?????
