What a garbage article lol. The only two arguments I can pick out are 1. Old steam games haven’t been updated to work on macOS and 2. Some games require 3rd party launchers. I think the author was just angry that his mac dropped support for a 20 year old game.

I would agree, clothes have never really affected me. I did a 150 km ride around my city wearing jorts and a wind breaker.

I spent a part of my childhood in the extreme north, and you get used to it. Usually I wouldn’t see the sun between mid December and late January. Winter just becomes a dark time, and you get used to the street lights. The first sunrise feels almost magical.

As a CS student, yes absolutely. These people then complain about paper exams and when the code gets complex enough for the AI to make mistakes. I’ve seen a few people drop out in programming 2, and my web 1 class was decimated because we were doing more than leetcode exercises. It’s a real problem that so many people are using it as a crutch.

Oh, I apologize I wasn’t aware of the terms connotations.

What a great way to prostletize, I’m sure we’ll get tons of people to try veganism by circle jerking about how moral we are.

Well yeah, I don’t. I’m not gonna fool myself or come up with cope to justify it, you’re exactly right. I wouldn’t eat a human or like a chimp, but I eat pork, so there’s clearly a line that I draw somewhere.

I’m not a vegan, and in fact I really enjoy eating meat, but Ill bite. I think that the stuff about plants and fungi suffering is nonsense. What you are describing is more akin to dominos falling over. It’s a complex chain reaction that involves no thought at all. A plant doesn’t have a central nervous system, and thus by definition cannot suffer.

Another issue with your argument is the last type of vegan, the one that wants to eliminate death. Every vegan that I know wants to eliminate sentient death, not just death overall. None of the vegans I personally know or have talked to want to just blindly eliminate death. Our argument as meat eaters is that most animals are low enough on the sentience totem pole that we can eat them without problems. A vegans argument is that no part of the sentience totem pole is low enough to eat. Your main premise comes from a mischaracterization of veganism.

I could be so much more efficient on a computer. One hand for the mouse, two hands in the standard typing position, and one hand on an external numpad. It would eliminate the need to ever move my hands. I want 4 hands now :(.

I chose lemmy.ca because I’m a proud Canadian patriot 💪🇨🇦🫡

It feels very exciting to be here! It’s a lot more open and customizable than other social media. I really hope that this is a small glimpse of what the future of the internet could be.
