I won't engage in genocide denial

Bro watched Dr.Strangelove and took the wrong message

Biden is doing everything in his power to eliminate the argument that trump is worse/less responsible/more bellicose.

As a trans person, I still hope genocide joe wins for my own personal safety. but I'm also aware that safety provided by dems is tenuous at best. Especially if we decide to fry the planet over Taiwan and Crimea.

Thanks for setting me straight! I kinda assumed it was some green washing bs, but the details in the interview are very interesting

Carbon-free steel is just iron

[Edit] nevermind I forgot that that I don't know metallurgy lol

I hate the NYT so fucking much

Poo innit

Nah Skylar's response is just "cap"

Cool! So it's European holly that does this. I've never seen a non-prickly American holly leaf, tho

If someone smokes a pack a day for 5 decades and gets lung cancer, we don't say "well, it might've been a cosmic ray..." That's technically the truth, but it's not how we evaluate risk. We can be pretty certain that the lung cancer was from smoking, and not a cosmic ray or one month of junk food 20 years prior.

I'm not an oncologist, but Im certain that decades of alcohol abuse is far more likely to cause cancer than a month of mcdonalds. If it was a cancer strongly associated with alcohol use, like esophageal or liver, then it wouldn't be very different from the smoking example above

This is why I'm on Lemmy

And sci-hub paused adding more papers 😞

The problem with the cli is you need to memorize a whole bunch of new words and syntax in order to do anything. You also need to memorize what not to do so you don't accidentally erase your system while using rm or cp or whatever.

Even something as simple as copying and pasting, which works the same in every single other program has new rules in the terminal. I mean, think about that. If you're just learning bash, then the first thing you'll be doing is copy pasting commands. But even that has the hurdle of 'oh, I guess this is the one program where ctrl-c means something else

Like, how do you look at sudo, cat, man, and apt, and think 'yeah that's intuitive'. And forget about multitasking, new users won't even know how to quit most programs (is it ctrl-q? Just q? Esc? Ctrl-c? Ctrl-d? Wait how do I undo that, is it ctrl-z? Wait where did the thing go
