Foofighter,

I guess the distinction would be fear of a specific religion or belief and the other would be fear of followers of a specific belief?

Foofighter,

If someone is interested, there is a list of offshore wind parks on Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_offshore_wind_farms

The project plans for 5GW power. In comparison, The UK alone currently operates 6GW, with another 3GW under construction (finished by 2026), another 7GW planned for 2026 and another 10GW planned without a specified time line. Population in the UK is roundabout 66million. US 330 Million.

Foofighter,

I think that humans are, evolutionary, omnivores but with vegetarian food outweighting meat. Dairy came in later with the ability to domesticate animals and turning formerly non digestible food (grass) into milk and hence increasing the availability of food resources.

I would like to have a vegetarian diet for the most part and reduce meat intake to maybe twice a week. I prefer unprocessed meat (steak or chicken beast). But I was not able to find the muse to change my diet.

This is not driven by moral concerns. Eat or be eaten is something I, as a human somewhere at the top of the food chain, can live with. I just feel like meat is not as scarce as it should be and many people have lost the connection between meat consumption and the animal where the meat comes from.

Foofighter,

No I wouldn’t.

A Lab Test That Experts Liken to a Witch Trial Is Helping Send Women to Prison for Murder in Multiple U.S. States (www.propublica.org)

The “lung float” test claims to help determine if a baby was born alive or dead, but many medical examiners say it’s too unreliable. Yet the test is still being used to bring murder charges — and get convictions....

Foofighter,

I think it’s good practice to carry out an autopsy. But boiling it down to a single piece of evidence which doesn’t proof neither if the baby was or wasn’t stillborn is insane. On top of that even if it proofed that the child was stillborn or not, it still doesn’t proof that the child was subject to murder.

Either the article is leaving out specific details relevant for the case to enrage the reader or the justice system is reeeally shit.

Foofighter,

I am actually several bots sharing a single account!

Foofighter,

I see! So rent has to increase to close the gap, right? RIGHT?!

Foofighter,

With the exclamation mark, it’s obvious to me that this is sarcasm. However Lemmings seem to take anything not marked with /s seriously or interpret things in the most negative way to the degree that I’m starting to question myself.

This is sarcasm right?

Foofighter,

You have multiple bus companies in one city?

Foofighter,

Yeah, well, no clue what I am looking at, but the wallpaper is really cool.

Foofighter,

That’s the part I understand, but all the command line stuff… No clue

Foofighter,

It’s so weird for me that he seemed surprised that benzos are, in fact, highly addictive with severe withdraw symptoms. Isn’t he a psychologist and potentially someone who is allowed to prescribe such drugs?

Foofighter,

Except you could take a cab to the bar and back, leaving your car at home in the first place.

Foofighter,

Well, I get that lightning and usb c provide different features, but the dimension of a USB C socket and plug could remain the same if you were to turn plug into the socket and vice versa, wouldn’t it?

Foofighter,

Great response, thanks!

Foofighter,

Hang on… There is unlicensed carry that might be banned specifically on beaches? Isn’t unlicensed carry in general like… Illegal or something?

As a 14-year long user, the new Fisher Price UI makes me sad :( What have they done to you, Reddit? (i.imgur.com)

Notice there is only 1 full headline (from /r/NoStupidQuestions) visible, it doesn’t even show the full post. There are 3 of those “trending” boxes but only 2 of those even fit their headlines because they are like 3 words long, they cut off anything longer including the description...

Foofighter,

The stupidity of the post is so attractive though. Perfect nerd click bait.

Foofighter,

Not sure about how relevant this in reality, but when it comes to alternating series, this might be relevant. For example the Fourier series expansion of cosine and other trig function?

Foofighter,

True, but normally, you’d introduce trig functions before complex numbers. Anyhow: I appreciate the meme and the complete over the top discussion about it :D

Foofighter,

Being new to Mastodon and Lemmy I personally struggle to figure things out. Just finding a brief summary on how Lemmy works in contrast to reddit has, so far, yielded no helpful results. While I think for me this is just a matter of sticking with the services I can imagine that a lot of people would check in, struggle and check out again.

The, let’s call it infrastructure, of Lemmy and the way registration works due to the fediverse is quite different to what most people are used to.

Foofighter,

I agree that the basic functions are similar, comping one particular instance of lemmy with reddit, but the fediverse, at least in my opinion, adds to the complexity. And when it comes to complexity, you have to keep in mind that there are business models out there focused on reducing the complexity of much more basic needs such as preparing a meal.

What if the instance I have registered with doesn’t provide a particular content I crave? If a new account was required to get the content I’m liking for, it may be a deal breaker. This problem is solved elegantly by federation. But if I browse all to search for that particular sub(?) which one ist the right one?

There is (at least for a newcommer) so much choice (compared to reddit) which looks very similar at first glance. Choosing a sub or an instance is not complicated, but in it’s nature complex, and the ability and willingness to handle that complexity may be major turn off for many newcomers.

I saw someone post that the competition between subs on different instances would drive quality, but that is not necessarily the case, when the metric I use is the number of followers in a sub. In the end, this thought of a free market will either result in a monopoly, one sub on one instance being preferred due to the amount of content and hence the visibility, or stagnation because none of the subs will provide the necessary quality to attract the masses.
