Really balancing on that ethics knife's edge here, aren't we?

TimeSquirrel, hace 4 meses a RedditMigration en Reddit revenue rises 20% ahead of IPO, but it isn’t profitable yet

Can't help it when half of my programming research ends up on Stackoverflow, the other half on Reddit.

If you read more carefully, that comment is dripping with sarcastic conspiracy theory bullshit. They aren't saying bring on the lab meat. They are saying the opposite.

20 hrs a week would be doable. But not my current of 50-60 hours of often hot, backbreaking labor dragging ladders and tools and equipment up into the ceiling and back all day.

I have a labor intensive contracting job. I also have a very high metabolism and am skinny as a rail. I cannot afford the 10 bags of beans or rice a day I would need to maintain at least 3000-3500 calories a day. If I tried that, I would literally die. I've done it before for a year. A whole year of weakness and sickness and extreme weight loss, and I couldn't tolerate it anymore. I get bulk things like cheap Costco boxes of hamburger patties and stuff like that, which I CAN afford. I am well aware of animal suffering. You don't have to tell me again and again that my existence is fucked up, because I know.

In the US, fresh veggies are more expensive than energy-dense fatty proteins.

While I agree wholeheartedly that the world needs to cut down on meat consumption, I do NOT agree with forcing it on somebody involuntarily. In some places, especially some parts of the US, cheap meat is often the only way for people to survive, and they do not have access to all the non-meat products they would need to completely replace every nutrient.

Being successfully vegan and maintaining health is a privileged thing in the US. Our food economy is centered on meats, salt, sugars, and fats which are cheaply available everywhere.

You think shit like this ever makes it to their eyes with the comfortable protective bubble they've built around themselves?

Remember the hat thing? The one where you went around giving out hats to people and corrupting comments? That was fun. Can we do that here?

TimeSquirrel, hace 11 meses a RedditMigration en Anybody remember Usenet?

Usenet arose during a time when the people using computers actually understood how they worked and how to use them. Asking someone to download and install a Usenet client then set it up to connect to a server of their choice and then subscribing to newsgroups is way above and beyond what most people are willing to do in 2023, sadly.

If it's not on a touchscreen, and not able to be done with 2 or 3 taps, then it ain't happening.

Expanding on this, I'm worried a technological education gap is forming among the youth. Old people didnt grow up with computers, they have an excuse. Middle aged people had to deal with the computers of the 80s and 90s, and because of that, understand computing pretty well. Young people were born into a world of instant gratification and super simplified touchscreen GUI interfaces, and from talking with them, it's clear most of them know how to get on the internet and do their thing on social media, but most of them have no clue how the nuts and bolts of it all work.

Keep sneaking those Steam Decks into gamer's hands.

TimeSquirrel, hace 11 meses a linux en What is the most opinionated linux distro?

Every one of the major ones boot into a GUI and have package managers, and most of them also support some sort of containerized app system like Flatpak. Imma get some hate from those who are wedded to their distro, but it honestly doesn't fucking matter.

Just pick the one with the cutest mascot/best looking logo.

TimeSquirrel, hace 11 meses a linux en [Question] Why does everyone seem to dislike containerized packages?

They feel like unmanageable warts growing on the side of your perfectly maintained software packaging system.

TimeSquirrel, hace 11 meses a linux en This again: What distro are you using for gaming?

I mean...Steam OS on Steam Deck...and probably on PC when they release that. If you mean on PC now, Kubuntu. Because I like KDE and Ubuntu is well-supported.
