Well, all it takes for you to drive a metric ton of metal at 120 KM/h in public is somebody signing a document claiming you know how to drive.
The only thing preventing you from creating poisonous gases from two cheap supermarket cleaning products is your own desire.
If you start thinking about it, most security and well being norms are just protected by people that believe in the social norm behaving correctly.
Why can’t you go behind the counter, enter the kitchen and pee in a McDonald’s hamburguer? Not due to some law of nature or magic force field, but because the workers (or security guard) won’t let you. Why won’t they let you? Due to a systematic belief system on the entity “McDonald’s”, their job, what’s right and wrong, etc.
But they could simply let you. A banker could let you take a few $100 bills. The consequences are almost entirely based on social rules.
I think you should worry about your own health, it was a super simple sentence to parse.
Bazzite uses Flatpak. Lemmy users love using Flatpaks. Flatpaks are notoriously filled with issues, including Firefox performance.
Let me know if you’re good or a drawing is needed.
Welcome to Flatpaks, Lemmy’s beloved way of distributing packages but the source of your Firefox performance issues.
That’s what they are saying, yes. They are wrong.
It is not a Christian cross, the symbol is the dagger † which is also often used for adding post-scriptum information or challenging parts of a text.
People often mistake it for a cross, given the look, but there’s no actual preference towards any religion here.
The cross is an entirely different unicode character: ✝
In that case, thanks for informing us that cows can eat grass. We are very proud of you. We absolutely had that knowledge already, but still, thanks for your effort.
The only way this is a strawman is if your statement is a non sequitur. Otherwise, my reply very much holds.
You can’t counter “raising enough cows to supply our current meat demand takes a lot of resources we could be eating instead” with “its okay for them to eat grass :D” unless the implication is that eating grass is sufficient to meet that demand.
Otherwise, you’re just commenting that cows eat grass. Which congrats, I guess? I think I know some middle school students who might be surprised by the information?
You’re delusional if you believe most of the meat you consume comes from cows eating naturally growing grass in areas no other crops can grow.
most people don’t want to eat grass or soy cake
If only we mastered farming, allowing us to plant a wide variety of crops. But alas, we are left eating grass.
That’s a very reasonable and effective individual strategy.
We don’t need everyone becoming a vegan - but we absolutely do need to stop denying the necessity of reducing meat consumption.
This is true, and also not usually well taken by most people, even the ones claiming to be pro environment.
Wait until this thread gets full of people saying that their habits are irrelevant because companies pollute much more - which they do indeed, but that absolutely does not negate the many studies we have that calculate a major impact if we simply dropped red meat.
Which is again quite obvious if you think about the energetic demand of growing food only to feed an animal that then will become food, rather than skipping this step and eating the original food instead.
The Docked performance doesn’t really matter. If you’re going to worry about a docked device, just use a regular PC + a long HDMI cable or HDMI over CAT6 converter.
“if education is not liberating, the dream of the oppressed is to become the opressor”
My main issue with using a community-driven Nvidia driver (which is what reportedly Valve is hoping for on SteamOS) is the almost certain lack of support for DLSS.
Both the regular upscaling and ray reconstruction look years ahead of other similar scaling algorithms.
It’s amusing that even when spewing nazi bullshit the AI is still incapable of writing without the half assed witty BuzzFeed blog post tone.
That’s how you get genital fungi
For pretty much the entirety of ancient history “sugar” and “cheaper” do not belong together in a sentence.
And we used lead in our paint, gasoline and water pipes.
In theory. In practice, an employee could skip all steps and pretend you concluded the test.
Similarly, a pharmacy expects that you went through a long process with a doctor diagnosing and ordering the medicine.
