Ok I realised now the mess I stepped in, ok no what I tried to mean, and I apologise for my ignorance, sexuality, I believe, is a spectrum and what I tried to mean it is for each individual to decide where they feel or know they fall on that spectrum. It is an evolving point and it is not set in stone.
But yeah you’re right, a person’s sexuality is not a choice like veganism.
I think veganism is unfortunately a person’s decision, like sexuality or religion.
The benefits for themselves can be listed, but unfortunately they have to choose vegan lifestyle for themselves.
Hopefully veganism becomes even cheaper and becomes more appetising for the broader society than alternatives so that it isn’t just moral or ethical reasoning driving people to change.
Murder searching for me hiding under the bed calling the police in a soft voice; “Help me, I am being hunted…”, AI Assistant; “hunting is one of the oldest professions humans have engaged in, would you like to know more about hunting?”
Can we start a thread with like blocking words, but yes blocking makes Lemmy the best
Yeah the Melania strategy doesn’t always work, probably gonna beat Carter’s record
Fuck now I gotta run from the law as well
This cool microscope, is Harvard going to keep it for themselves or are they planning to share the equipment with the rest of the scientific community
I cannot speak for this area of science, but in my field China’s research papers, for example rock mass failure response to complex stress states, are like a god send, really quality work. This is my opinion in my field but if I had to extrapolate… Remember the Soviets with all their propaganda had amazing scientists
This feels so relatable, started the new year eating healthier and started jogging, and now the morning wood has returned. So being lazy and unhealthy was the cause, not the age
Wait isn’t it that they changed from three unlocks a year to only one device per Mi account a year. As far as I know you can still unlock one single device a year
Don’t you guys have Steve Irwin’s crocodiles. Where they not the natural predators of kangaroos, I assume most of them have been removed from most rivers to more natural protected areas?
Or like the Tasmanian Tiger, even though they look a bit small, but if there were packs of them, or dingoes. Look I believe humans have disrupted the natural forces keeping Australia’s fauna and flora in equilibrium, just like almost everywhere else. I think you also have an alien toad that is also wrecking havoc on your ecosystem, where I am really in favour of ethical thought out method of eliminating invasive alien species.
I am a vegan, well for now maybe it changes maybe it doesn’t since I believe everything should be looked at as rationally as one is able to, but I still see hunting wild animals in certain situations being ethical. Where I am from, South Africa, hunting has basically supported environments that are kept as natural as possible, so the wild life has to be sustainable , and it supports all the other animals that also live on the farm that cannot be hunted. There are bad, really bad situations where this was not the case, cage lion hunting being an awful example. But yeah the animal really does live its life in its natural environment, and when hunted usually killed in a quick manner, usually not always, similar as if it was hunted by lions or crocodiles.
It is a difficult point, since I do not ever want to hunt, but I see the benefits of hunting. I know there might be obvious shortcomings in my view, but OP, with this one you have my semi vote of approval. But with all things we should make rational ethical decisions where it does not lead to suffering or exploitation of the beings involved. Maybe Australia can support a bigger number of kangaroos than what the government says, remember they are not always to be trusted. But maybe the natural predators of kangaroos have been eradicated and now human culling needs to put pressure to keep sustainable populations. I cannot give you the answers but hopefully a conversation can begin. I tried to be open as you asked OP
Yeah, it is insane once you have family members who have started to sip from the kool-aid. I feel like it is a lost cause, even when you have objective proof, they say their feelings still triumph your evidence
I totally agree with this comment, a mixture of different energy generation is the most resilient way to future proof a grid. There is no one way that is better than all the rest, adding nuclear and hydro to solar and wind will basically compliment each other extremely well, leading to clean reliable energy
I do not think Microsoft is afraid, I think they are just not that focused on the gaming market, yes they have a console and a bunch of game studios, but I believe that is right now a secondary focus.
No Microsoft is focused on the tech heroine called AI, trying to inject it wherever they can. They see this as the new frontier. So even though I would have loved seeing Microsoft scream in pain as they realise another competitor has actually a more enriching product that will eat their lunch, unfortunately they are in another boardroom discussing how they can get more AI, does anyone know where they can get more AI
Oh no I disagree, I would rather be the richest person in a poor country than be the poorest person in a rich country. But I grew up in a low-ish, not nearly the lowest, income country so maybe I am just used to it.
On our mine we have a lot of systems to protect the tyres, and they are inspected regularly. Like if you overload your truck the truck will go automatically into creep mode to protect the tyres. We also have specialised services on site to inspect any damages and wear to ensure safe usage of the tyres, scrapping them way before the expected life span, usually at 50-60%. Repairs are also done but only if the tyres are not structurally damaged.
But proper standoff distance usually prevents any people or machinery coming into any dangerous situation of a tyre blowing out. The real danger of these huge trucks, we have the 350 Tonnes version, its collisions, can so easily drive over almost anything without knowing, so that is why we have a very far standoff distance, 80-100 meters to ensure no one gets too close. Also we have a collision avoidance system where the truck switches off when anything gets nearby
Look I know I am kicking a hornet’s nest here. First of all I am a Linux supporter, I have used the green Ubuntu since 2012, and I have been gaming on it since 2022.
But I am really curious about how the new ally 2 with the Xbox tweaked version of win 11 is going to turn out. Not that I would use it, if I get a handheld it will probably run Bazzite. But since Bazzite is basically a purpose built Linux OS for handhelds, I think the best comparison would be the Xbox team’s purpose built Windows 11 for handhelds.
I still believe Microsoft will take the loss even with the tweaked version, but just like how we will cry if they put for example Hannah Montana Linux and Microsoft beats it somehow in certain examples with their new Xbox win 11 mobile.
