Nice, sorry if I came in hot. The issue you have is with health ramifications of the procedure which is also totally sane.

I’m not a big fan of the idea of abortion
Are you saying you’re not a big fan as in you don’t think it’s a great, fun thing to do? Like “I’m not a big fan of _____ sport”? Or against the idea itself?
I’m assuming that by “the idea of abortion” what you really mean is that you’re not a fan of killing babies, which is not what abortions are doing.
And if that’s not what you mean then I ask that you clarify what it is you do mean since, sure, you make decent points here but it’s important that everyone understands what an abortion is and what is being aborted, which is almost never a living baby.
If I’m being honest, someone who says they don’t like the idea of abortion sounds like someone who doesn’t know much at all about what one is or what it’s removing. Or someone who thinks abortions are for sluts who go out fucking everyone and getting pregnant and just aborting 3rd trimester babies bc they’re sluts (I will clarify here that I also don’t see a problem with female promiscuity resulting in abortion either)
Loosing isn’t the right word
That means nothing imo, last book I read was years ago and I’m in a field most consider to be for sharper folks. Software dev. The book was the last in the three body problem trilogy.
In a world where the Twilight series exists, I really hate people who use the act of reading books as some intelligence measure
My friend’s brother just died of heroin overdose a few weeks ago and I just couldn’t help but feel for him. How many dark alleys did he have to go to to get his high? How many sketchy people were involved? Did he have access to clean needles? He overdosed alone, and likely felt subhuman due to being relegated to the fringes of society just to get his high.
Legalization would not have kept him from getting high, but it certainly would have enabled him access to clean drugs from a safe place, clean needles, and possibly made him viewed as someone who enjoyed getting high and not a piece of shit addict. He had a problem and it being illegal only made it worse for him.
Legalize it all. He was an adult, it’s his body. He can do what he wants with it, it’s nobody’s place to tell anyone what you can or cannot consume. He loved getting high on heroin and I don’t see a problem with that.
It’s still an accident. Just look up the definition. I’d wager to say most accidents are entirely preventable as well, but that’s not what determines whether something was an accident
Yeah there was a whole thing about it at the time, it made news and was credible. The fix for it being of course to double check your ballot before you cast, which could easily be a miss by a first time voter or maybe an elderly one.
My comment was in reference to the fact that Ted Cruz is a moron, and that we came really close to getting him out, but I do think there were some shenanigans with voting. Just the other way.
Every accusation is an admission
Here’s an article about it, a quick Google returns a ton of results
didn’t realize there were so many Ted Cruz fans on lemmy
We tried voting him out, we really did. Coincidentally, he beat Beto by a very small margin while there was a small percentage of voting machines that reportedly flipped votes for Beto (I think they would flip them to Cruz, and if you didn’t double check all your votes before casting them, then a Beto voter could have inadvertently voted Cruz)
Ah yes, the tired, old “perfect being the enemy of good”, so let’s just let it all go to shit since we can’t get it perfect
This was the experience Android users had initially, then Android started parsing them and adding the reaction to the message. This is also when iMessage started getting that type of message instead of the reaction, as a sort of dig at iMessage
The point they made enhances yours. Yes it is hypocritical, but is arguably worse on the conservatives’ part since sexual orientation is something you’re born with.
The issue I had with using it for code is that the scrolling in the video seemed pretty bad, which is pretty essential for it. Would love an e ink monitor dedicated to code/terminals, so I’ll be waiting to grab one when the frame rate’s a bit better. Also, in some of the footage of them writing in Word looks like there’s a decent amount of burn-in. I’d do it for $2k today if it had better frame rate for scrolling/typing and much less burn-in.
Na, they’ve got managed forests and it’s fine. Your comment had me google to see and it’s actually pretty interesting.
I think they just stare at it, hoping the vulnerabilities come to them in a moment of revelation. A Linux Joseph Smith, the kernel playing the part of the Golden Plates.
It’s just a massive time scale that it happens on, but yes that gives way to feeling like that. Read the first 2, put the last one down halfway through after it started shitting all over the first 2 books with a certain character’s actions.
The second book has a really cool few pages that helped visualize what experiencing the 4th dimension could be like.
The series is more interesting for its concepts than it is for plot or any one character imo
