skisnow@lemmy.cato You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that apart from not having a car and voting, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat.English4·21 hours agoClearly murdering a farmer is also wrong, if there were easy answers then we wouldn’t be where we are now.
But, I think the Judge had it right when she said “find another tomato”, and the scriptwriters allowed the main characters to handwave it away as “no that’s too hard” without being challenged any further on it.
It goes back to OP’s original point; we don’t have to go to total war, we just need enough people to draw a few more lines that they stick to most of the time.

I wish vegans and vegetarians would be a bit more willing to promote this viewpoint. It’s insane how many otherwise normal people will refuse a single meat-free meal for no reason other than identity politics.

skisnow@lemmy.cato You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that apart from not having a car and voting, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat.English11·1 day agoThat show pissed me off so much. They actually straight up concluded that there is no ethical consumerism under capitalism, and then… just rewrote the universe’s metaphysics so that you get a pass for that, and American consumerism becomes standard religious doctrine
Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic but yeah. Head them off in the direction you want them to go, just like sheepdogs do.
skisnow@lemmy.cato Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Take a deep breath and think about itEnglish121·2 days agoAI seems to really love that extreme high contrast side-lighting on everything. Then the text itself is irregular in a very non-human kind of way, like there’s no natural processes that would result in an ‘E’ like the one in ‘BECAUSE’.
Then you’ve got the person’s face, which if it were drawn by an artist of the skill level we’d expect from the rest of the piece, one would imagine they’d do a better job of conveying some sort of personality or emotion.
AI Art is fundamentally antisocial because it’s the Art equivalent of the Bullshit Asymmetry Principle; it took less effort for OP to create that than it did to pick apart exactly why it feels so unsatisfying and unsettling in all the wrong ways. Always downvote AI Art.
Heat accelerates decomposition. Cold burns tissues. Water logfing from rain would be a nuisance, at least.
I think most “undead” type zombies handwave that sort of stuff away as part of the powers that animate them in the first place. It’s only really an issue for “virus” type zombies.
I figured they chased them in a big circle. Or did laps. Or anything other than a completely straight line.
skisnow@lemmy.cato People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Grok, even in its manipulated state, continues to emphasize the facts. And that's hurting the feelings of a lot of Twitter users.English18·2 days agoThe irony is most fact-checking sites (including BBC Verify) concluded that the effects of the NOAA cuts on the disaster were minimal, since the data available at the time would have led to the same prediction regardless of whether the recent layoffs had happened or not.
(This isn’t a Trump support post, it’s a “Grok is even worse than we already thought” post.)
Yeah. The problem with capitalism is that if you’re not willing to fuck things up for short-to-medium term benefit before moving onto the next thing, you’ll go out of business to someone who is.

skisnow@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Danish Ministry switching from Microsoft Office/365 to LibreOfficeEnglish12·2 days agoThe best thing about all these organisations moving away from Microsoft is it incentivizes further development and QA. Or at least I hope all these governments switching to OSS are also funding people to keep a close eye on all the PRs coming in from state-sponsored hackers…
skisnow@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Idaho bans ‘Everyone Is Welcome Here’ classroom signs, calling them ideologicalEnglish12·2 days agoMaybe, but I’d rather be brainwashed and wrong in trying to treat others with empathy and decency, than be brainwashed and wrong and driven by hate for marginalised groups.
I suspect that this may have been intended as laughing at past doomsayers, but I think they may have been right about this one.
What would you have us use instead then? They were going after “empathy” last month. No matter what word you choose, Nazis are gonna Nazi.
skisnow@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impactEnglish124·4 days ago“curtail developer choice” is such a weak argument because you could equally apply it to literally every piece of regulation ever passed. Of course it curtails choice, that’s almost the dictionary definition of an industry regulation.
I actually kind of believe it, because kindergarten/elementary teachers are often from arts & humanities backgrounds, and it’s not at all rare to find one who never passed a high school STEM class and therefore prone to get flustered easily when called upon to explain the reasonings behind even simple things.
skisnow@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts salesEnglish27·4 days agoAbsolutely. Every indicator available suggests Enshittification will hit the subscription models within the next few years.
The text is in the font and writing style of the Daily Mail, so even more so. There’s a pretty high chance the reporter never even spoke to them.
