It’s a funny way to put animals off - they might have the most sublime, healing and fascinating time or a completely terrifying one but the fact remains that because it takes the best part of an hour to kick in they will probably still have no idea what caused it.

If an appimage is available you could probably just move it across on a USB drive.

Well put

Man after my own heart.

Never heard of him.

Something is fundamentally wrong with the system. It produces new problems faster than it solves old ones and almost everyone is miserable and sick.

[…] the condition health researchers refer to as “overweight” was defined as having a body mass index, or BMI, of 25 kilograms per square meter (kg/m²) to less than 30 kg/m² and obesity as a BMI of 30 kg/m² or higher.

What if you have someone who is really thin from the side but really fat from the front?

I think I see the thinking here: surround yourself with people who dont make you look so bad.

We’ve been laundering their money long enough - about time they spent some of it with us!

Lots of non-vegans make the assumption that vegans are looking down on them as morally inferior and don’t like it.

The best you can do for them is to tell them that it isn’t about them; it’s your choice for yourself.

Of course you might actually see them as morally inferior, in which case you can just say “Hey I am vegan and while I do see you as morally inferior, it wasn’t me who brought up the subject.”

If it wasn’t for the fact that in the UK internet connections are logged I probably wouldn’t bother with a VPN.

It really annoys me that a government choice is forcing me to be wasteful.

Apparently it used to be more like that here in the past until a doctor called Harold Shipman helped loads of people die who didn’t actually want to die.

It made a lot people uneasy about doctors administering lethal doses of painkillers.

Sustenance for the spirit.

I’m sure they do but it will be way less.

Cool to see Loops in action.

If someone is spending their time chatting to AI about politics then I think they’ve got it coming to them.

100% agree. These things get talked up as benefits when they are mostly treated as revenue streams by the seller and distractions by the buyer. Kids and adults. We all need to be way more critical of the tech we use.

So what? There will be a “Yes I’m over 16” check box which will be as meaningful as the “Yes I’m over 18” one on porn sites?

Any hope of governments or social media sites enforcing this will come with big ethical and technical compromises and I dont think anyone is actually going to really bother.

We already have limits on what children do with other potentially harmful things like fire, sharp objects, heights and roads and they all come from parents. If this law has any real and positive impact it will be the message that it sends to parents.
