    Jump

  • TfL said the bike bus was under consideration because it would be “unsafe” to allow cyclists to ride through the £2bn tunnel

    Dunno, seems like it would just make more sense to ban cars from using the tunnel

    Jump

  • According to a 2021 NYU study published in the science journal Springer, ExxonMobil, one of the largest oil and gas companies in the world, spent $235m on lobbying between 2000 and 2018. US-based Tyson, the second-largest meat company in the world after Brazil’s JBS, spent more than $25m between 2001 and 2018. As a share of each company's total revenue over those periods, Tyson spent 21% more on lobbying than ExxonMobil, found the research

  • The influence of the meat industry is reminiscent of the influence of the oil and gas industry

    Interesting, I usually compare it to the tobacco industry. Meat kills so many people in my country, yet Big Meat still goesion TV and lies that meat is healthy with a straight face.

    Most of us know the truth, and eventually we'll have pictures of rotten hearts on packages of meat with warnings from the surgeon general. And hopefully time served for these lying meat execs

  • While this is true, it would help to shift subsidies on animal products to more sustainable options and add a tax on animal products.

    People are more likely to buy healthier food that's better for the climate if it's also the cheapest option.

    • Do you use an antivirus? Why, or why not?

  • It depends how many VMs you want to run at once. RAM reqs in Qubes keep pace usually with Windows. You'll want 16G minimum.

    • Are packages from flathub always safe?

    Jump

  • I can: yes, Flathub is more unsafe than package managers that actually verify all packages signatures after they download software.
