You occasionally see studies that include mention cost of manufacture - For instance Cuba technically has lower car emissions mainly because the embargo has forced them to constantly repair cars rather than get new ones. Not aware of any mention of the other facts like maintenance and city planning though, would be cool to see more data about it if it exists.
As someone who frequently has windows with 1000+ tabs, this feature has saved my bacon countless times.
Honestly, for what little it may be worth, I appreciate your view here. I think if we had this kind of attitude in moderating such behaviour, it alone would go a long way to making for friendlier and more constructive discussions for all.
I couldn’t have said this better myself. All I have to add is shaun_vids’ seriously detailed (and long) compilation of all the information we have regarding the decision of of dropping the nukes. The conclusion is that the Japanese were already trying to establish surrender negotiations but were being entirely ignored, the US didn’t care and instead dropped both bombs despite being well aware the war was already over. They mainly just wanted to be seen as the ‘sole victors’.
Over 200,000 civilians murdered solely for capitalist posturing.
I’m genuinely curious as to why you think this is trolling? A serious point is being made.
She concisely made a very important point that is absolutely the central underpinning of class relations: “How do rich people get their money?”. And to continue the constructive discussion, the original poster only need answer the question “how did they get that money”. Finding the answer to that question alone is justification for class war. She also put in some cute goose emojis which are just cool.
I’m not sure if you genuinely didn’t realise, but they already said they were Irish, so they clearly mean the United Kingdom. Which has indeed deliberately inflicted mass starvation and violent oppression on the people of Ireland for centuries, with the implied (and sometimes explicit) goal of killing non-royalists.
Just to echo something the main post said - Seeing large images is actually a frustrating Lemmy bug that’s yet to be fixed. On Hexbear we post a small, standard emoji-size image and that’s all we see our side, so nobody is even aware that others are seeing it obnoxiously huge.
I’ve got to say, Steam’s native Wine/Proton implementation works decently well, and really entices me to buy games without native Linux support on Steam.
Absolutely fair point, you may well be right. I pretty much agree on all points.
I want to say ARP. Can I say ARP?
Followed by brrrrrrBRRRRRRRaaaaAAaAAaAKRrrrRKrrrKRrrkrKRrKrrKrRkrrrrrrrrrrr, in my experience.
I-Is this serious? This is literally what The Pirate Bay is now.
I struggle with this, I make a minor effort but what am I meant to do when my high Cha, high Diplomacy character is more charismatic and diplomatic than me? :( I either skimp on the RP or do some very unrealistic RP as my awful unconvincing wording magically convinces the NPC anyway.
This seems like the right take. It’s based on expectations.
Though slightly cliche, this just feels right. That niece has learned a great lesson about how collaborating to improve things is always possible, and that open-source relies on everyone doing their bit.
Hexbear is an explicitly left unity platform, MLs included.
They used the “Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking”, a pseudo-scientific test that measures and evaluates absolutely nothing of any objective measure or value.
Though I personally don’t know who of the two evils would be the worse win in the long run, yes, agreed, very much this.
That’s my point. You need those Steam keys to get the full experience. If you pirate it, you don’t get it. Therefore for some games, resellers > piracy.
I suspect I’ve undiagnosed manic-depressive disorder, but either way I get heavy existential dread for 1-4 weeks straight, then reoccurring again in 1-3 months. I also get similar pressure from my industry. So I do feel you :(
