I had to borrow money from the bank this year to buy a car. That made me feel too adult and kind of drove me into a crisis.

From my antifascist perspective, an Apartheid state killing children is what is truly absolutely unacceptable. If diverse sectors of that society are not OK with war, Apartheid and murdering civilians, it's on them to mobilize to stop that, not on the rest of the world to refrain from criticism just because the human rights violations their state actually commits are similar to delusional bigoted tropes about their religion. Also, criticizing the actions of a State, even a religious one, is not hate speech.

same here, roughly

I thought so as well. Maybe the other side of the protruding sausages were progressively squeezed out by the dough starting from the tip, and it's probably due to the proximity to other rolls in the back, or maybe the center of the oven was much hotter and ended up cooking (and growing) the dough unevenly. That explains why the tip of the sausages looks popped.

True. I live in Brazil and I run my car exclusively on ethanol. It's a biofuel made from sugar cane and thus is renewable and has a low carbon footprint.

That graph really is very impressive. I've always always wondered about the size scale in which most phenomena around us happen, but that very narrow isodensity area containing from viruses to main sequence stars is mind blowing.

I realized why your comment bothered me so much: I am kind of an antinatalist myself, so for me having children is always dooming them in some way, especially nowadays when our civilization is on the brink of collapsing, but I don't judge these people to be more selfish than the usual. People with Li Fraumeni Syndrome have a 50% chance to pass down the mutation to their offspring, it's no certainty, and the article is clearly showing current technology can detect cancer earlier so people can act upon it. You are calling these people, who have cancer or mostly certainly will, selfish, when you don't have the faintest idea of what it means to live in their shoes. If it is selfish or not, that is something for their children to decide, not you. Passing shallow moral judgment on the reproductive decisions of disabled/sick people is very dehumanizing, not to say it's one of the core elements of eugenics ideology. It's not hard to see how your standing would enable a more extreme view arguing that people with Li Fraumeni Syndrome should be sterilized.

This. You might have to clear up some space before installing pacman-contrib though.

paccache -rk1 once in a while and you're good, maybe even create a hook

Although not very realistic for most people in most countries. In my social reality, buying land and conditions to homestead depends on having a fat inheritance or having an exceptionally good salary.

You know what is fatal 100% of the time? Living at all.

Reproduction is not about logic anyway, it's just a very common and fundamental feature of life. People who are disabled or fatally ill also have ordinary dreams, desires and human rights. Framing the issue as "these people are dooming their progeny" makes it seem like their own lives are worthless because they will die young, as if the value of human life rested on longevity. It's quite frivolous to assume we can understand the desire to have kids of people with such diagnoses.

So, the primordial lifeblood of Lemmy consisted of historical memes. It was the thing that kept the feed going for many weeks in the beginning, and we still see echoes of that. It makes me glad because I feel I'm in a cozy, familiar corner of the Internet, replaying an entire lifetime of memes here. It's as if meme culture was reincarnating in this very network of federated servers (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)
