You really are an Unethical Life Tip Pro.

Is it 100% optional? Are there no dietary conditions that require eating meat? Even if it is optional, I only said that expecting everyone to change is unrealistic, not that it’s impossible.

How much do you expect people to sacrifice? If you give up eating meat can you fly to go on vacation? Or are people expected to give up everything in the name of the climate while billionaires jet around and corporations expell endless emissions?

Also, your comparison to mercenaries is bad. If military operations are required for survival (like eating) then why would the nation feel guilty? If the mercenaries say “yes we will only defend that military base and we will not kill everyone in the nearby school” and then they go and kill everyone in the school, why wouldn’t they be blamed for not following their orders?

Sure, but to get to a plant-based diet that meets the dietary and taste needs to replace a meat-based diet, takes an initial investment of time that some people may not be able to spare.

I’m not saying a matching diet will be more expensive, but the cost (mainly time) of changing diets is an investment some may be unable to afford. If there was a lot of social support for the working poor to change diets, sure, but to say changing diets is something that won’t take more time because the buying of produce and active cooking takes the same time is misleading.

If only there was some kind of carbon tax that took from the profits of polluting companies!

People could just stop what? Eating?

Buying meat? Is becoming vegetarian not more expensive in terms of time and money for someone who has a meat diet? Many people do not have the money or luxury to make such a change?

Expecting everyone to become vegetarian is unrealistic. If you’re buying meat and all companies you can choose to buy meat from are making the same carbon neutral “commitments”, it’s not like you can choose the company that will actually follow through.

But anyway, blaming people for the depravity of companies is also not going to fix anything.

Can we blame them?

A few years ago everybody was kind of jumping on the net zero bandwagon without actually thinking through what it actually meant

Yes.

Just a guess, but maybe they were deleted because of the Reddit info, which is shitty exploiting of someone’s post by a company.

I just came here because I was trying to copy the link from a comment to modify the link in my reply (to make it an old Reddit link), but it was a very frustrating experience.

Even opening the web view of the comment does so in the internal browser, which just shows the URL and title (hidden under your finger) when you long press on that.

If I am holding a link it should give options; you already handle tapping on a link in a comment differently from tapping on the text of the comment, so why is the same not true for holding on links?

Thanks for all your work!

I think this is one of those things that seems like it should be easy to automate, but actually has lots of hidden complexity.

They probably don’t use this to scan commonly available books, because for those you can just cut the spine off the book and scan the pages in a regular scanner.

This is likely used for books that need to be preserved and can’t be damaged during the scanning process.

How do you make a machine that will always turn exactly one page and never tear a page, while adapting for different page sizes and thicknesses, and avoiding the static charge that can make pages stick together? All for less money than it costs to pay people to operate this machine.

Calling something magic because you’re using that to mean “something made with science beyond my understanding” is definitely different from using it as “this is literally magic made by sorcerers”.

One is a joke, the other is evidence of the failure of the educational system.

And companies that need to print more frequently probably already have some kind of subscription, because there are already printing companies that fill that niche.

What is “evidence of bad ambient occlusion”?

Yeah I also think it’s a 3D render. The chromatic aberration, the shadows, the specular reflection of the metal, the lack of camera sensor noise; something about the lighting just looks off.

It looks way too consistent to be a composite image of some kind.

I’m guessing the recruiter made a text post and then looked for an “eye-catching” surgical tool image to make the post stand out.

Why would they directly send you an image with a recruitment message? Because they were lazy and just copied their recruitment post from elsewhere?

It shouldn’t be checking anything during a ride. If it needs to be turned on at the start of the ride, it should do all the checks and give a green light or a red light (or some other clear indicator) before they start riding.

That way, the only way it doesn’t go off if someone wears it while ignoring the “system is not active for safety” warning.

Shouldn’t be a subscription in the first place, but hey, this is just a weird hypothetical.

While this is useful, it could be even better! If the AndroidManifest.xml also contained support for Facebook, TikTok and Instagram links it could be set to directly open them instead needing to share it to mpv.

Sounds like the battery itself will have a QR code, so I imagine manufacturers of interchangeable packs will have to print the QR code on the battery pack itself.

This complexity is the problem. Thanks to insufficient funding for education, many people find it difficult to understand to understand complex problems and their full context, so they want simple “solutions” that are black and white, instead of the grey of reality.

Thank you for actually reading my comment and suggesting something appropriate, though I’m not convinced by the UI images. I’ll have to test the touch support myself, but I’ll check it out.

Thank you for actually reading my comment and suggesting something appropriate! I’ll have to figure out how to get the package file myself, thanks!
