The ones where of the aphid strays too far from the closed in pack it becomes an instant snack (hey that rhymes).

At least we cook our chickens first (/s)

You vegan? Apparently y’all are fine with meat too according to some:

Those ants are farming aphids. They keep them in close quarters. Ants are nature. Ergo the meme

🤣 go to the Lemmy vegan community and say that. I’m sure you’ll easily get 99 upvotes and only a single downvote

Well if the ants can do it, why can’t we?

(Btw, I’m opposed to caged chicken egg cultivation, and even had my own chicken in the past before I couldn’t anymore for eggs. Now I just pay the premium and researched which were the most ethical eggs in the store available. Happy hens make better eggs anyway. I’m just pointing out we’re not the only ones that raise animals for consumption in nature).

Still missing the point.

The criticism was on your “words don’t kill people” part.

Neither guns nor words spawn out of nothing.

Didn’t know much about this community, but honestly it gets some of my respect for pushing against the current main narrative.

Violence isn’t necessarily always a bad thing - otherwise, Europe and Japan would look drastically different today.

Leaving out that the reporter was a mass reporter likely stirring up trouble, I think it’s natural in dire and extreme times for people to wish for more extreme actions to happen to evil people. It’s not as of people wishing that will necessarily do it (just in case, I wish for enough money to buy a house and retire with the basics), it’s just a way for them to vent the frustration they have at Injustice they can’t otherwise do anything about.

Not to mention silencing the side that wishes death against those advocating for the death of others always seemed to be… Hypocritical to me.

So in all, I think this community’s admins did good. If people left over that, maybe it’s for the better not to have them.

The discussion was never about the guns, dumdum (this, btw, is an ad hominem)

Demisexuals do have sexual attraction though.

It’s just they don’t really want to have sex with someone unless they first have an emotional bond (and since it’s a spectrum, some literally don’t find a person sexy at all until there’s an emotional bond).

A lot of people don’t have that limitation though - it’s not a goal or anything, they just also get sexual urges with hot people and therefore want to have sex.

Those people usually are up for / have one night stands for example, because they don’t really need any emotional connection to want to have sex.

Thanks for the strawman, I see now you’re arguing in bad faith (or are one of those Americans hyper focused on guns)

Word of the day (because I suspect many humans don’t realize they fall into this category):

Demisexual

Setting aside that the discussion was never a legal one (and either way, what is legal does not mean is moral);

The tool is still very relevant. If you have the intent to kill many but only a stick, you probably won’t get as far because sticks are not as dangerous as guns, or even words for that matter, when used.

Pull a trigger in the air without a gun, and see how many you kill.

The gun is an extension of the user - without the gun, you cannot shoot, just as without a person the gun won’t shoot.

Same is the case for words. They didn’t come out of the aether into existence, and when spoken carry the will of the speaker inherently.

It’s not “just words”, it can be malice or hate given form - that is, after all, the point of communication; to give form of what you desire or think to others.

This is like saying guns don’t kill people

Well, time to make my alt community account my primary one. See y’all on the other side!

Maybe they hired the political strategists that keep making most Americans vote against their self interests as their sales team

Well, at least Mistral is open source I guess :/

Currently I’m working on a Plasma Bigscreen build that still gives some privacy and 1080p Netflix/Disney+/Crunchyroll etc by using extensions/WebApps and getting S-Tube and other android apps (including tv web browser) via Waydroid + Flauncher, all controllable through a simple IR controller.

If you pm me I’ll set it as a reminder for when I finish to share the package. It’s designed for an Odroid C4.

As for dumb tvs or more privacy friendly tvs, you can find them if you know where to look. Here’s some options from LG:

They had a dumb 65" 4k OLED too but it’s currently out of stock.

I forget people grill with electricity or gas.

I think my family only allows starting at level 4. Should there be an alt scale or?..
