I dunno man, doing both at once is amazing

It’s an anime about alien hunters.

Mmmm… butter… (Fs)

Could just put “logical fallacies” in there and call it a day. “Cognitive biases” too.

At least? I’m convinced they have a moral obligation to do so much more than that.

Yep, and someone got video proving it was one mod placing pixels without delay.

But that would require us to use Reddit, which I think may be their plan all along.

Don’t be surprised when the Lemmy pixels are suddenly overwritten by spez.

"Your capacity to be offended, isn’t something that I or anyone else needs to respect. Your capacity to be offended isn’t something you should respect. In fact, it’s something you should be on your guard for, perhaps more than any other property of your mind.

This feeling can mislead you. If you care about justice (and you absolutely should) you should care about facts and the ability to discuss them openly. Justice requires contact with reality.

It simply isn’t the case, it cannot be the case, that the most pressing claims on our sense of justice need come from those who claim to be most offended by conversation itself."

I disagree with your political position, but I do agree with your stance on being disrespected.

I still feel like you should reply, but take the high road, continue to be respectful and address the points of disagreement. I want to see where this conversation goes.

I don’t think the amount of people getting high will change much. It’s pretty easy to find weed wherever you go. All this will do is remove the black market, and provide high-quality weed for cheaper prices.

From Wikipedia:

No studies have been able to show [canabis impairment] increases the actual risk of crashing, or that drivers with THC in their blood cause a disproportionate number of crashes.

It seems redundant to worry about it. Alcohol is worth testing for, the physiological impairment is dangerous (blacking out, blurred vision), and drunk people make riskier decisions.

I would chalk that up to adrenaline. Also the pain depends on where the break is. If the muscles around the broken bone are spasming, then the two halves of the bone are going to be grinding against each other. That’s why we use a splint in first aid.

• never be bored.
• fall asleep instantly.
• pee and poop teleported straight into the toilet.
• grow fingernails back quickly.
• know how to do anything, but lose all memory of the thing when trying to do it, tell anyone, or record it.
• ability to shapeshift, but your bones and muscles are going to hurt like hell. You think breaking a bone is bad? Try having all the bones in your face rearrange themselves.

Goats are goated though.

They are our protection against the holy army who are coming to rapture (kidnap) us.

Hail the goat.

Absolutely. Foremost, the governments job is to keep everything ticking along. My issue is with the politicians who vote against the will of the majority of the people, when it has no impact on keeping the gears turning.

Legalising weed would do nothing but good for our economy, numerous countries have already proved that. If I can step over them and skip months of bickering back and forth (so they can go back to arguing about how to improve things), I’m going to step over them.

Which distro is best?

Hannah Montana OS > mine > yours

Proton just keeps getting better, it seems like they’re trying to create a suite to compete with Microsoft.

Email, cloud storage, VPN, calendar and recently password manager.

I do wish their VPN client for Linux was a priority sooner (they’re working on it now). Also, I can’t get email notifications on my degoogled phone because it uses Firebase for push notifications.

Other than that, I love Proton. I pay for Proton Unlimited, I’m happy to support their growth for a great product range.

I’ll be voting yes, if for no other reason than to encourage more referendums.

I think its insane that we need to vote people in to vote for us, who are statistically more likely to be psychopaths. The majority of Australians think weed should be legal, but it still isn’t.

Giving people the power to vote on specific issues bypasses the bureaucratic bullshit.

“Oh no, it might open the door to more changes to the constitution” GOOD

About as dumb as paedophiles in the catholic church, or african-americans in the GOP, yet, here we are.

Clarified here

I really should have clarified this because it seems like a contradiction for me to state that down voting is bad, and to say that when you see something worthy of a downvote, downvote and move on.

When I say worthy of downvote, I don’t mean a disagreement. I’m talking about people being obviously toxic. If malicious people want a reaction, giving it to them is not productive.

For example, if I see a post about plant based meals, and a comment states “I’m not convinced that this is really helping the planet, I don’t see a problem with eating meat” - then engage politely.

But a post like “fucking vegans lol, I’m going to eat 2 steaks tonight” is not worth replying to. Downvote and move on.
