Sure, one step after another.

Can we agree to stop raising animals >specifically< for killing and consumption?

Subsequently, we can tackle the problem of accidental killing of animals through farming practices.

This is a somewhat oddly defensive reaction. Did you feel personally attacked by someone sharing their feelings?

"Reported-by tag gives credit to people who find bugs and report them and it hopefully inspires them to help us again in the future." [1]

Nothing about that says "I have debugged an issue and contributed actual code to fix it" in there.

This is a very sad way to live life. Expect the worst and be happy when things are better than your basically non-existent expectations?

No thanks.

Open source software development is not an exclusive club. If you contribute to open source software you are an open source contributor.

Stop gatekeeping.

After how many lines of someone contributing code to the kernel are they considered to be a >kernel contributor<?

How is fixing bugs not a contribution?

> sometimes you've just gotta put a dude on the moon, you know?

in software development it looks like everyone and their grandmother is sending people to all moons known to mankind, though.

this was disgusting, a content warning would have been appreciated

Not sure if you noticed, but having success is determined by (optimistic estimate):

- 25% hard work (required for most people)

- 75% luck (where you are born + how you were raised/educated + general luck)

It is called life/birth lottery for a reason.

i'm always sad when accessibility is not mentioned in docs for new stuff

for adults i can only recommend watching "Should You Be Assessed For ADHD? Psychiatrist, Dr Stephen Humphries - Harley Therapy". [0]

adult adhd symptoms are vastly different than childhood adhd and many people suspecting they might have adhd, might actually have it.

> Do I really want the government in my bedroom

No, I want the government to regulate markets. As in, I want the government to do everything in its power to abolish the sex trade market and help people get out of the famously violent, dangerous and abusive field of prostitution.

> Didn't you start off by saying all people who buy sex are mentally ill and all people who sell sex have no agency of their own?

No, I said they need therapy (which would benefit most people, me and you included). The fact that you are misrepresenting what I said and turning it into polemics is uncalled for and unproductive.

> You lead with slurs, what did you expect?

Nowhere did I use a slur. In fact, the only slurs dropped were by you, which I pointed out to you and now you become defensive.

Moreover, based on your outrage, it appears that you think that mental illness is something people (or right now: specifically me) use to denounce or otherwise degrade others.

Please look into how you are doing the actual thing (taking civil discussion off the table) you accuse others of doing.

the most significant difference is that one has blue paint and the other red.

otherwise, they are seemingly the same in terms of outcomes for average workers.

Abstinence means what I wrote. It means to refrain (= not do) something. In the sexual context and on this topic, this would mean not buying sex.

It's cool that you have to resort to low-key ("look in the dictionary", "shaming", "primitive and regressive", "close-minded") blows to push your argument, fantastic for discussion.

Oh, and you don't have to be a puritanical to think that intimacy for sale is a bad idea and should not be encouraged.

Once again, the problem is societal. If you treat everything as a market, you will get a society where everyone is treated as a commodity.

Abstinence would mean no sex at all, when in fact all the buyers need therapy to have enough social competence to get genuine encounters instead of using force by money and prostitutes need ways to safely leave their “job”.

Buying sex is a horrendous, (socially and often also physically) violent way of exploiting (mostly women's) bodies.

Overall, it is a societal topic. As long as commodification of everything is the norm, bodies will continue to be commodified. There is no legislation that will make prostitution ok or be safe.

yikes, looks like i will have to self-host instead... or switch workflow to pass

the biggest thing for me is convenience and that is why i am using bitwarden and not keepassxc or pass at the moment.

but i am constantly tinkering on my workflow and pass seems to be really cool so who knows when i switch again!

from the very first text on the page:

"Updating in the open

Things might look a little janky for a bit, but that’s okay! I am in the process of refreshing the design."

for anyone wanting to change their scrollbars for firefox and gnome:

- in firefox there is an option to always show scrollbars (section "browsing")

- in gnome you can change the setting org/gnome/desktop/interface/overlay-scrolling to false (with i.e. dconf-editor)

it convinced me, i am going to stop styling the scrollbar in my projects unless the designer throws a tantrum (and i cannot convince them not to)

for lighter usage, i am using Database Designer on Android.

it is surprisingly easy to use and most of my ideas never come up when i'm on my pc anyway.

Moreover, the wife of a person near to Doskozil, Michaela Grubesa, was the leader of the election commission, which has its own very strange taste.

Now, never credit maliciousness to what can be credited to incompetence, but you know, it's a lot of small details that make the whole story more bizarre.

because it is addictive.

i only quit because i got banned without reason and got auto-rejected when appealing.

they linked their (user)names:

Can someone explain to me the reasoning the original persons [1] blog post is flagged but not this one?

(I don't agree with flagging either)

How is it unreasonable to want you to not host someone's code on one explicit other platform?

We already established no one is forcing you and if you don't respect the author you don't get to be respected for your decision to ignore them and will earn snarky remarks. (and rightfully so, in my opinion)

i think it is quite scary that so many in here would just not honor a simple "please don't do it."

it is a wish. if someone says "please don't wear shoes in my home" i hope you would honor their very simple and understandable personal wish without setting up a contract for it?

i mean, just be a bit more human, please.

> It's a win-win because the developer has the incentive to provide the best possible service in order to retain customers.

Only that a lot of users of Adobe Suite, Microsoft Office and so on will tell you otherwise.

The sentiment seems to be that the products got worse after switching to subscription pricing.

In Austria, there is an ongoing legal case [0] about the pay-or-ads-model. At least the Austrian DPA seems to not totally be ok with it.

i don't think that is true. ideas are basically statistics. someone will have a great idea somewhere, but until that idea gets executed, widely spread and tested by reality it will remain as if basically not having been had.

so no, i don't think that the idea is what counts.
