Never met a vegetarian?

He hasn’t actually been convicted of any yet… technically not a felon until he’s sentenced, if I’m not mistaken

Tbh I wouldn’t know what to make of someone wearing a rainbow swastika

Can’t say that any of those things you listed someone should be ashamed of, but maybe not proud of them either.

Fwiw, Trump either genuinely believes he’s done nothing wrong, or he needs his fans to believe it, so him saying this kinda tracks.

I guess there’s a reason pride is a deadly sin

Go to a therapist if you’re struggling with your mental health

Easy to say. Difficult to do. Even among Americans who have health insurance, access to mental healthcare is abysmal.

Real question here. I don’t know how the number of attempts is calculated. If a single person attempts unsuccessfully 3 times, then is that recorded as 3 separate attempts? Or is this recording the number of unique people who have attempted suicide any number of times?

If it’s the former then it may be an indicator that women prefer methods of suicide that are less likely to succeed, but it is much harder to tell how many individual women actually attempt suicide compared to men.

Also, if a person is suffering enough that they’re seriously contemplating suicide, is taking that option away from them really the right thing to do? There’s also the issue of any such system being abused. It’s easy to imagine law enforcement using this as a way to disarm groups and individuals for political reasons.

Yeah federated platforms like lemmy are a potential solution. I would guess they aren’t more popular because nobody directly profits from the success of these platforms, and since no one entity has control of it people in positions of power may be wary of adopting it.

Also a distributed platform is pretty much always going to be more complicated. This scares off the casual users that make up the majority of social media usernames.

Look at Linux; you can be more open, better on paper, cheaper, and even easier to use in some cases, but the success of online platforms is not a meritocracy. It’s a pageant.

And the joke is that Lemmy users are much further left than that.

Recently I’ve been listening to Well There’s You’re Problem; it’s 30% retrospective on engineering disasters 70% shitpost

Yuzu is an emulator. You don’t need a physical console to use it, unless you insist on dumping your own firmware/roms/keys.

Modding actual switch hardware is certainly more involved. Those rcm jigs are annoying, and later revisions require a modchip which is not an easy install.

If the sex worker is consenting without duress and is being treated well (I recognize that’s a big ‘if’) then I’m fine with it. I have no inherent objections to sex work itself so it would feel like a double standard to judge the people who use it.

Unfortunately the moral waters are muddied by the rampant trafficking, drug abuse, etc. within the industry.

Unless I’m missing something this seems trivial to test. Just test blood sugar before and after drinking a diet soda. If bloods sugar goes down then the sweetener likely caused a release of insulin. If it doesn’t change then it didn’t.

It seems petty far-fetched. If artificial sweeteners caused a runaway insulin spike then I would expect them to cause a lot of cases of diabetic shock.

Sounds like the injured officers are suing. It’s a civil case not criminal, so I’m not sure how much the court would actually be asked to legislate. I’d be interested to hear their arguments, though I’m sure part of their reasoning for suing Tesla over the driver is they have more money.

If you’re swerving to avoid a sudden obstacle you reasonably may not have the foresight or reaction to flip on a signal. The car still needs to not force you back on collision course.

The headline doesn’t state that the warnings were consecutive.

Perhaps the driver was just aware enough to keep squelching warnings and prevent the car from stopping altogether?

I’ll grant you, though, 150 warnings is still a little tough tough to believe…

Not op, but in my mind this would depend on whether you have any reasonable means of de-escalation, e.g. running away

If not then it’s not really ethical or unethical… it just kinda can’t be judged

If we’re splitting hairs, bi should be a sunset of pan.

Also, there is some need for a fourth “none of the above” label…

Jesus. The GOP is really trying to salt the Earth with two entire generations…

The os updates thing may hold more water for iOS… It’s a bit suspect when comparing to Windows and just plain wrong if you compare to any major Linux distro.
