IMO the laundry thing is an easy example of the larger issue of extreme privilege. Being able to live on a rich friend’s property in the woods by a pond sounds awesome. I’m sure I would love that and it would do amazing things for my well-being. But that’s just not a relatable thing for most people and it can really sour the message.
Sounds like a skill issue. Just don’t die and you won’t die.
Except, ideally, a PhD thesis. Which should contain a completely new piece of information for the world.
2024.1.6 was released on Tuesday. That’s what the stable image tag appears to be on at the moment.
Doesn’t look like anything exceptional, just some bug fixes: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/releases/tag/2024.1.6
Asphalt is pretty amazing given the amount of wear it goes through. It’s basically infinitely recyclable, very flexible, goes down fast, and is relatively easy to work with.
Highly recommend meowwolf. I did the Vegas one on a work trip and it was a blast.
I see season 1-9 packs on both IPT and TL.
Observation is all we have. There’s no indication that anything outside the solar system is different from the things inside of it. Some stars have a light spectrum very similar to our sun, which implies they are stars in similar places in their life. Others have a light spectrum that is very different.
We can use different parallax angles to determine that some stars are much further away than others. Parallax works the same at 10 miles as it does at 10 light years.
Is there some particular observation you don’t understand?
To be fair that’s a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.
In my wood stove, at least, it would drip though into the ash catch, which is a much thinner metal than the cast iron stove body and not really meant to have something actively burning in it. Kerosene also likely burns hotter than wood.
So you’d have a too hot fire burning in all the wrong places in the stove, it might be ok and it might burn a hole through something and start a fire.
Check some recent comments, they used the correct term to describe themselves.
Same process in the United States
On top of the many other reasons here, there’s also a pretty distinct difference between countries without a US extradition treaty and countries that won’t extradite to the US. Many countries without formal treaties will still happily hand over a US citizen trying to hide in their country. It might be a different story if he had dual citizenship somewhere but anywhere he tried to flee he’d be immigrating illegally.
I host this instance just for myself. I use bans locally to curate my all feed. I don’t really need problematic people getting alerts about what I do.
Distributed but high trust.
Zero-trust blockchain tech has no value. There is no such thing as a zero trust system in real life.
Except blockchain solves no useful problems so you will never find it behind anything that isn’t explicitly using it for marketing.
Lemmy is free of corporate influence, but it’s still a community with standards. I’m sorry you can’t fit in here.
It’s literally the same argument. A virus exists that disproportionately affects a group of people. That group is uninteresting to me so instead of just saying I don’t give a shit I call it a force of nature.
We are a little special because we can conceptualize how our actions will affect the spreas of a disease. A world leader is a little more special in that regard because they can enact policy to curb disease on a wide scale.
Having the knowledge and power to help and not doing anything is a moral failing. Blaming it on nature is covering that failing with nonsense.
Its as true as saying AIDs was nature’s way of dealing with gay people. Which is to say it’s absolutely untrue and way of passing off moral responsibility to anthropomorphized concepts.
I actually think your hypothetical smoker is a great example of the opposite. Someone who lived it, understands the struggle, and ultimately regrets their choices is exactly who you want to hear from. It’s why the really cheesy don’t smoke PSAs don’t ring a chord with most people, they don’t feel genuine.
I don’t think Thoreau is some enormous hypocrite, but I do absolutely understand why some people might feel bitter about it when they learn the greater context.
