I like helping animals in need. When did we agree that only the most intelligent/fit animals deserve to live?
I don’t intervene however if it is predator vs prey. Helping one would mean harming the other.
Edit: thought about the predator vs prey thing some more. I guess I do tend to help if one seems much more sentient then the other.
I liked them as a kid, but now I just see the pollution, the traumatization of wildlife, the fire hazard and risk of injuries. I also have asthma, which doesn’t make it more appealing to me.
Also, with the advent of drones, I think we do have better alternatives now.
I don’t see why it would be. Isn’t ‘copyleft’ basically: “You may modify and redistribute this code for free, but whatever you produce with it has to be copyleft as well”?
Extending that to coding agents trained on copyleft code, I would say that any code that agent writes is also copyleft. How is that anti-ethical?
What’s wrong with copyleft code?
Neither, I think it’s none of my business.
I’m not sure that’s the point of the comment though. Maybe it is, idk.
I guess we fundamentally agree and just interpret the comment differently. Hitting others is generally not ok, except in self defense.
I interpret the comment as “The boy should learn some self defense. That will help him get over the abuse and recover some self esteem.”, which I find valid.
You interpret it as “The boy should start hitting girls. This domination will lift his self esteem”. I agree that’s a shit take, but again, I also don’t interpret the comment that way, and I don’t think that those who upvoted it do.
I guess only OP can clarify what they meant.
Don’t know the context here, but to me it looks like that comment simply suggests teaching self defense to a victim of physical violence. Knowing some self defense is generally a good idea, especially if someone has a higher risk / history of being physically attacked. And if your attacker is a woman of course you still need to defend yourself.
That’s not the same as teaching boys to hit girls, and I don’t think that’s the point the comment was trying to make.
Another point I think I have to make: hitting back is not the same as self defense, it is retaliation, and not something we should teach children.
I don’t see why we would want to gatekeep the fediverse. If more people decided to use it over centralized social media, I think that’d be a positive development.
And as you know, the fediverse is far from homogeneous. I expect there will always be some very big general purpose “normie” instances like lemmy.world, and smaller, more niche ones for specific communities.
With these things, it often makes sense to ask the opposite question. Would it be possible for one to not affect the other? Legal and illegal markets would have to be completely separated, meaning money used in one couldn’t be used in the other, and entities participating in one couldn’t participate in the other.
That is obviously not true, so yeah, black markets influence the legal economy.
I think there are two separate questions here.
What I’d recommend: Don’t stick to what you know, you have the rest of your life for that. Try new experiences, keep an open mind, meet new people, visit different places, learn things. And chase your dreams before life has got you on your knees.
I would say it depends both on the player and the game. Some games may rely on the fact that there is an online community. And some players might enjoy figuring stuff out themselves, while others just want to get past a tedious section so they can go back to the bits they actually enjoy.
I remember there was a character in Vampire Survivors that could only be unlocked by looking up a code online.
I would argue that every species alive today evidently found a strategy that works, otherwise they wouldn’t be here.
Perhaps some mushrooms actually rely on being eaten somehow. Or perhaps being poisonous comes with downsides, so it isn’t purely an advantage.

Yes, if you want the scent to stick longer, you need a higher concentration, not more perfume.
I like EdP, you apply it in the morning and by the evening only the base notes are left, you can then re-apply if you are going out.
Generelly, the scent of a perfume always develops while you wear it. The top notes that can be smelled immediately after applying are gone after half an hour, then you can smell the middle notes and finally the base notes.
Concentration changes how long middle notes and base notes linger, the top notes always disappear fast.
It’s also a matter of concentration. An EdC may last for only an hour, an Extrait you may smell for a few days.
about 150ml per year (that’s for EdP)

I don’t know about the historical reasons. But I do think it is good to have some ordinary people influencing the judgement as well, rather than just some judge sitting in their ivory tower.
I don’t, there’s a canteen where I work.
