Hnngh hnngh yes yes quite the unwashed masses need to be kept far from power hmm yes Tallyho good man hmm hmm.

Anything veganism (positive)

Extremely cheap for performance and build quality via ex corporate market. Strong linux support and l largely unchanged form factor means parts are also cheap and widely available. Even stuff like trackpad assemblies can often be swapped between styles.

Performance is adequate for normal enthusiast computing. Excessive for common videos + internet but cheap enough to justify.

They’re good /shrug but they’re just a thing. Do what makes you makes you happy, you don’t have to impress anyone it’s just a grid of lights that make you sad in a distracting way.

Or you opened pycharm (ಥ﹏ಥ) 5 gigs of RAM is fairly audacious for a single program :/

Average lemmy user.

See 4Chan, the_donald, gamersriseup etc. If pretending to be fash is the joke you can’t remove actual fash.

I don’t browse all much but when I do I see “jokes” about how killing people is cool and good if the government that claims dominion over you says that the government that claims dominion over them is the enemy.

NCD is a disgusting community anyway. You’re not missing much

Across all of Europe and all of the middle ages? Sure probably. Never hear of them, see them in art? I dunno, it’s hard to say because we don’t have a lot of documentation on what normal people’s lives were like.

In the cosmopolitan cities like Prague you probably would. Also any major Mediterranean trade port. Anyone who went on pilgrimage to those places, or along them, probably would. Cutting off Jerusalem to pilgrimage being such a big political deal indicates that many people went there or wanted to, and people loved sharing stories of places.

It’s called speciesism and it’s how people justify eating cows.

Dude: ports exist, people trade, across the Mediterranean you can find lots of different skin colours and customs.

Nobility and their favoured travelled extensively, skilled tradespeople would undertake elaborate pilgramidge if they could afford it all the way to Jerusalem. Even serfs got to go on pilgrimage although usually not to Jerusalem but to other cathedrals.

Stop with this ahistorical nonsense. Maybe someone in the British isles might not have much contact of the greater world but the HRE? Spain? Italy? The eastern Roman empire? Of fucking course they did.

This is a pretty flawed understanding of history.

Humans have always travelled, in Europe even serfs would hope to go on pilgrimage and Lords generally had to allow it. Although it may only be to a nearby cathedral. Italy was a trade hub, and a relatively short trip by boat to north Africa.

European painters knew that people came in different shades. As proof, go look at the school of Athens painting.

JSO continuing to be awesome in every single way.

Here is how ethics works:

• if I push a boulder on you I’m a murderer
• if I push a boulder that squashes you but on the way down the hill it grinds some flour your death is an externality and I am industrious.

Since we are in the latter case, it is not self defense. Too bad, so sad.

Do you or have you ever worked in science? I did for a bit and that was not my impression.

One cannot really argue that science as practiced is very effective at certain things but it is also extremely far from being objective in practice. Especially the further you stray from simple physical systems.

Also like I never saw someone formulate a hypothesis in any sort of formal sense haha.

Look I understand you’re trying to be positive but this doesn’t work. It’s not really viable for me to put more effort into explaining why each specific thing doesn’t work but take e.g. paper towels, well they rot. Unless you pack them up in an environment which they can’t rot in. Like a sealed mineshaft, which you could just pump co2 into. In either case you’re filling an empty coal mine with low density coal while using energy that could go to something with exponential payoffs like sustainable power infrastructure.

Protecting greenspace is good, reforestation is good and has all sorts of positive effects from stabilisation of local temperature to cleaning the air of pollutants. It is not however a solution to climate change. There is only one, and it is not burning fossil fuels. It is completely impractical to reverse the damage we have already done. We have added 0.02% of the atmosphere’s mass in co2, that is 1.E17 kg or a hundred million billion kilograms.

Trees don’t permently sequester carbon. A forest is a bunch of bound up stuff, but since fungi can now digest trees when they die they don’t become coal anymore.

So unless you want to make the surface of the earth rainforest somehow you would need to bury trees in a sealed sterile mine or something. Or you could just do that directly.

Carbon capture is kinda dumb though, coal and oil are what ideally captured carbon looks like. We should focus on not digging that up and burning it.

2things.

Funny that people are trying to evangelise time wasting brainrot

Also you must have so much useful time without the time wasting brainrot.

goes back to watching people process clay for some insane reason

Heh, nice try at having standards but since it is impossible to not harm anything then obviously possibly harming for pleasure is fine. Checkmate loser.

Now I am going to depict you as the crying wojack and me as the handsome wojack.

More than that sort of people that make these posts, no bee has ever said anything that has convinced me they have zero understanding of philosophy of consciousness.
