  • When does. Trying to convince someone become trying to manipulate someone

    Jump

  • I got a better answer just by reading a definition of manipulation:

    to change by deceptive or unfair means so as to serve one's purpose

    It is as much about the means as it is about the purpose. So if you are manipulating a kid so they behave in a way that will help him get throug life this is not manipulation. But if you manipulate them into something that only serves you... Yeah that is manipulation.

    So in case of convincing someone in a debate it depends. If you goal is to win a debate by manipulation, so you can feel as a winner, that is manipulation. But if you want yo educate them this is not.

  • I would also like to hear other people persoective on that.

    Because obvious answer would be to convince them on subconscious level instead by directly convincind them.

    But a mere praise can often change someone interest and even values.

    It gets even trickier if we are talking about raising a kid. You actually want them to adopt your values etc... You are supposed to praise the behaviour you want. Especially if they are to small to understand reasoning. And you fully understand you are completely shapping their personality on a level they do not understand.

    So I do not know. Maybe all of that is manipulation but not all manipulation is bad?

  • "seeing you hanging out with me" doesn't feel very natural

    I agree! This is totally fake and unnatural. Also animals do not talk.

  • It might be slight overextrussion.

  • Looking to build a K8s cluster, what are your strategies for finding affordable hardware?

    Jump

  • I would go with two (or more) proxmox nodes working as one. And then running even more VMs on them as kubernetes nodes. Proxmox handles lots of stuff for yout that is harder to handle in phusical machine.

    Jump

  • Do not run kubernetes nodes as LXC. I mean you can for testing etc... BUt you will have to break sandboxing because of networking capabilities kubernetes requires. At least that was the case for K3S. You could probably have better experience with Kind.

  • What is something that most people normally do that you find weird?

  • All your current friends were once randos. And were you specifically looking for new friends when you got your current friends? Or were those some time ago some randos that said hi?

  • Making a small talk is the only thing that changes someone from a complete stranger to a someone you know. Then they can tbecome a friend or even a best friend.

    Most of us got our friends mostly at random. In middle school it was the one guy who randomly sit with me, same in college.

    I think we are fine with total strangers becomming our friends, because most of the people are kind of really cool.

  • By practice I got to the point small talk with strangers does not feel strange. And by doing this I noticed that I help strangers way more often.

    Last time I noticed a man carrying his heavy kiting equipment. He was really struggling. I had some time so I helped hin carrying to the other end of the city.

    Old me would never do that. I noticed I am also way better wigh kids. They like me and I am the best uncle.

    Originally my personality is being a introverted geek whose enegry is drained by the people. But I wanted to change that. It worked wonderfully. It shows how much in a control of your life you can be.

  • Directly telling them is common enough.

    But if we count indirectly telling it is erverywhere. It is brought up in conversations and it is all over social media mostly in a form how they think how immoral is to have kids.

    Most probably because some people think they have to explain and appologise for not having kids. And they do that in a form of attacking how having kids is bad and morally wrong. It also does not help that social media is boosting this types of posts because they draw attention.

    It might just be me. But I see probably a post like that every day. I have never in my life hear someone explaining how having kids is good or directly say that I should have kids.

  • Anything but metric

    Jump

  • Do you not understand? Or do you not want to understand?

    If you really want to understand, I will explain everything and show you how deeply wrong you are. However I will not spend time explaining, if you will then still continue with this "I am used to this system so everyone else must be wrong." approach.

    But if you like being wrong I recommend you at least not publicly announcing it.

  • what industrial meat, egg or milk production or similar situation have you been in?

    =>

    I do not know. I was never in that situation. For some reason you expect that I would be shocked or that I could not stand such experience. But we have obviously a different standards on what an acceptable cruelty towards animals is. Maybe explaining what is happening was something that changed your opinion. But if you would try to convince as many people as possible and save as many animals as possible you should definitely change your strategy. Because most meat eaters know that and how much animals suffer. And we do not care. Because animal suffering is obviously not enough a priority to change even eating habits. This is genuine advice. Do with it what you want.

    they get forcefully impregnated As almost every wife in arabic country. And they would still prefere to exist. And also as most animals in animal kingdom. What they experience is way closer to rape than is to voluntary action as we understand it.

    they just don't really get to move

    As lots of sick and/or old people. And most still prefere to exist.

    every offspring gets taken away

    As it is with moms whose kids die because of sickness or accidents. And they still most often prefere to exist.

    in the house where all the blood and screaming is

    As any solder and hospital worker (or butcher) And they still prefere to exist.

    Some people experience lots od things mentioned above. And I am not claiming those are good things. I am not arguing killing of animals is awesome or we should not abandon it.

    I am arguing you are underestimating how much existence is worth. Some people value it less (probably you?), and would kill (euthanize) themselves if they would have to experience stuff mentioned above. But I argue lots and probably most people would still prefere to exist even though they lived horrible life you mention.

    I argue that having a horrible, short life that is terminated forcefully is worth more than not existing at all. And this is by a standard of lots of people. We do not even know what percentage of people think this. And we are way more clueless about animal opinion on the matter.

  • I do not know. I was never in that situation.

    But If I try to imagine... ...even if my life would be hard as hell... I would probably still prefer being born as to not exist at all... Having a consciousness is one of a kind experience...

    Also cows of my uncle have it quite nice. All day wandering inside a huge fence, having a lot to eat, hang out with their kids... Cows do not have a freedom to leave, but they have everything else. To me it seems a better life than lots of humans. For example take a young wife of a rich oligarch. She cannot leave, but she has anything that she needs.

  • But I do think people of nationalities with rough histories are thankful that only their ancestors suffered and the nation as a whole still exists.

    However most do not have to die when they grow up...

    But I think, I would rather lived until grow up and I get eaten as compared to never have existed at all...

  • The most common understanding of genocide is purposfully exterminating the population. It does not matter how it dies out. If it all the subjects are killed, sterilized, purposfully mixed with other population or sent to space. Noone has to die for a genocide to occur.

    So we are not discussing: killing a generation vs. killing multiple generations. But rather: exterminating a specie vs killing members of that specie but maintaining a population.

    One is "crime" against specific subjects and the other is "crime" against a group.

    Casting a judgment on which is worse is however not something I would do.

    I feel if the disagreement would be encouraged, you would let commics posted, and let us to downvote or upvote if we want to see some artist or commic...

    By giving a rule, you are the one who decides what the line is. There is very little room for disagrrement since your opinion will be the one that is to be enforced.
