Yuh I wasn’t saying more privatisation, I was saying how in some ways there’s already so much privatisation.

My main laptop is literally 16:10, same res as a deck, pretty sure most Macbooks and productivity monitors are 16:10 too, my gf even snagged a 30" 16:10 monitor. Who tf even bothers with 16:9 anymore lmao it’s the worst of all worlds.

Bruh 💀 So much for nhs

I love dairy milk, especially and exclusively UHT Milk. But fuck the dairy industry so much.

A custom bash script will do the job then. You might not want to use docker though as that adds a lot of complexity when it comes to communicating back to/from the host.

Doesn’t really keep to your requirements but check out cockpit. It monitors CPU/memory/disk/network of the host it’s on, it can monitor KVM virtual machines, it’s not docker afaik but simple to set up, uses your Linux login, has a terminal you can use straight in the web UI to get whatever info you’re missing, it uses pmcp and pmlogger for all the info so the number of processes and ports is fairly low.

Dunno about configs, and I’m not sure if/how it can set up alerting though. I tried looking with a basic Google search but only this numbnuts “Neo” guy popped up on his circlejerk forum https://community.unix.com/t/how-to-configure-notification-in-cockpit/377055

Love and curiousity. For the latter, my ability to find things interesting has allowed me to look past the immediate and into the past and the far future, the details of the world that add up from countless actions of people or movements of particles, creating such wonderful complexity.

But it would all be for nought had I not someone to share it all with, my friends, my lovely girlfriend, a mind alone and silent is a mind wasted. And I could never waste such a precious gift, I’m grateful to share my intelligence and stupidity alike, for they are my diversity and a symbol of complexity as a human being.

It also helps me understand why things are happening, especially in relation to economics, history and politics. When tragedies occur, I’m able to be more immediately dispassionate as I see the causes and the trends and parallels to history. Yet it has not made me lose my humanity, if anything, I have turned kneejerk emotions into an olympic fire of sorts, never out, always there, always aware. In the words of a forgotten British punk band “I cultivate the hate to anhiliate the state”

I’m not commenting on their ethics one way or the other, not because I think stealing from your fellow man is okay (it’s not), but because it’s not relevant.

A criminal is still human and deserves to be treated as such, including certain rights and dignity. Theft is risky and it is hard and nobody’s stealing from porches because their life is good, think about it - why would you if you could just buy the thing?

There’s no fundamental difference like some evil chemical that makes them do bad things, it’s just the reality they find themselves in at the time.

There’s no reason that someone who does so out of whatever makes sense to them at the time should have their lives ruined forever for the revenue of some obnoxious online fuck. We all make mistakes.

In Canada AFAIK, it is illegal to post online footage of porch pirates because despite however bad it may be, they’re still human beings with all the messy complexity that comes with it and thus a certain right to a degree of privacy. I believe this is a good thing.

On a more personal note, I feel strongly about this, I am from Russia. I dodged the draft and escaped. One way authoritarians gain power is by depriving the prisoners of rights, because anyone can be made prisoner with enough vague laws on the books.

It is important that we do not dehumanise criminals for at the very least this reason.

That may very well be, but the videos speak for themselves - there are no “organised groups” on display, mostly just clearly poor folks and maybe some opportunists.

Criminals have rights too. One could say, that as by law in every civilized country, committing a crime does not mean random rich fucks can do whatever they please with you and your life.

And I for one do not particularly find some desperate single mom stealing to give something to her kid in a trailer park being exploited for views to be entertaining or in good taste, even if she is a thief.

I’m not a thief, and I’m not a criminal, but I have far more in common with her than with out of touch rich fucks like that Mark guy.

Who?

Edit: nvm it’s that clickbait glitter guy who harassed the poor for views

Average lemmy.world poster

Nothing new, they always had. This isn’t about that anyway

That is incredibly selfish of you to say.

No it isn’t. Animals aren’t people. Killing them for food is okay. Killing babies for abortion purposes is okay too. Killing people in self-defense or in a defensive war is okay.

You are the one who needs to grow up. To kill is to be human.

You need to grow up and start caring about others.

Yeah I do, other people, not literal farm animals.

You wouldn’t like it if people say they didn’t care about trans people

They don’t. Majority of the population of the UK is also against all fundamental trans rights that have already been present for decades. This isn’t the same though, people aren’t fucking animals, not even trans people.

Any discussion about human morals is fundamentally irrelevant.

So knock it off and be better. You have no right to participate and excuse the exploitation and murder of the animals. Many people have changed their minds after they saw the horrors what the animals have gone through.

I have seen it all and I don’t care. It’s not that I don’t have that reactionary emotional response like “oh this is horrible!” It’s that I realize such a response is illogical and when mediated through some thinking actually there’s not anything wrong with killing animals for food that I can think of apart from “that YouTube video looks unpleasant”.

You can’t win me over with optics grandstanding. If I actually think about it hell yeah let em mfers burn and churn lol, mommy needs her protein dust.

That is whaboutism distracting from the real issue… did you know that factory farms workers are exploited relentlessly and it’s often poor folks who are of colour.

No it’s not whataboutism, do you know what whataboutism is? It’s when you say something like:

That is whaboutism distracting from the real issue… did you know that

To shift the conversation from the IPCC report that you used in your already tangentially related cause from environmentalism to something entirely different based on moral grandstanding.

Nonetheless yes I know sweatshops exist. If those people weren’t working farms they’d be doing other hard manual labour. That’s not an issue that can be solved by “voting with your wallet” by not buying meat, nor is it anything exclusive to the food industry, it’s solved by a global revolution where the working class unite and establish socialism.

It’s very funny to accuse the other of whataboutism and then proceed to do it.

Like if I brought up that

• Vegan leather is a massive contributor to microplastics and hasn’t saved any animals and they still die due to manufacturing of said vegan leather, or the fact that
• Pesticides necessary to sustain any large population of vegans cause extreme damage to the environment on a far grander scale than meat production
• Or the health issues of being vegan or
• The many instances of vegans forcing obligate carnivore animals like cats to be vegan, demonstrating a faulty grasp on reality
• health implications of meat replacements, and that when you bring these up, vegans will say you just shouldn’t eat it “that” much.

Not much of a replacement for something you can eat every day for the rest of your life then is it? Yikes. Speaking of:

I dont miss meat at all. There are plenty of tasty plant-based foods out there. You just need to try them out. Look at Turkurky, Impossible and Beyond for direct meat alternatives.

Besides the aforementioned issues you and I are entirely different people.

I love eating meat, almost every single one of my meals has red meat and has had since I was born and moved on from mom milk to cow milk, while if there was anything worthwhile to sacrififce my culture and diet for I’d do it, but as it stands I’m not doing anything to make the air better for billionaires.

If we burn, at least they do too.

Easy to say that when you’re healthier right now when you can still participate in your own hobbies. We don’t need selfish people like you putting extra strain on the healthcare system.

I’ve contributed many times over my fair share to the healthcare system as an immigrant who has to pay the NHS Surcharge in the hundreds per year for years and now as a net tax contributor. If boomers can be a strain on it despite doing fuck all for anyone, then so can I, and I can’t wait. Sadly for me, I’m incredibly healthy, because eating meat isn’t unhealthy.

Just because it is enjoyable for you does not make it okay for you to exploit others. Rape is enjoyable for the perpetrators but we all know that isn’t a legitimate excuse.

Rape is wrong because it’s a violent act performed without a person’s consent.

Picking up my cat off my desk where he shouldn’t go without his consent is okay, because he’s not a person to begin with.

Eating animals without their consent is thus, okay, because they’re animals, not “others”, the food chain isn’t fucking rape jesus goddamn christ get a fucking grip.

Honestly how fucking dare you use rape for your own soapbox vegan preaching?

Go touch grass you absolute lunatic.

Eat a burger or something, get the juices flowing in your starved brain and fucking think before you write next time, nutter.

It makes the difference preventing the deaths of the animals

I don’t care about that. Fundamentally in my view it’s okay to kill animals to eat them because they’re tasty. I don’t think you can really change that view.

and reduces water and land usage

I’ll be happy to make that sacrifice, but the impact to my quality of life will be disproportional compared to the actual savings incurred since compared to a billionaire I don’t consume or produce much environmental damage in the first place.

I’m already doing the most environmentally-sound thing one can do - be child-free. I’m trans so it was gonna happen either way but I’ll claim the points. I don’t drive either, not that I wouldn’t want a gas guzzling F-150 I don’t need to barrel down the crossing by the school in and grind away the plebs below, who wouldn’t? So that’s a helluva sacrifice too.

Therefore I see no reason why I should have to do anything to cover for them until they stop polluting. Fundamentally I see no reason to “save the earth” if we don’t have an egalitarian world worth fighting for, and all indicators point in the opposite direction at the moment.

You’re not giving up anything when you stop eating meat

False, eating meat is one of a few good things about being alive. You may not see it that way but it’s subjective. To me it’s a very significant sacrifice and a reduction in quality of life.

it’s quite the opposite really you’re much healthier on a whole foods plant-based diet

I don’t really care. I’m already doing far too much for my “health”, just so the bastards up top can exploit me into my elderly years instead of being some lead poisoned boomer who just chills out off their infinite house price raises and pensions going to conspiracy conventions or whatever it is they do.

Do not base your character by comparing yourself to the most morally reprehensible in our society.

There’s nothing morally wrong with eating meat in my view to start with so I don’t view any of this as morally reprehensible, it’s a sacrifice and a pretty big one, and living the working class life I already got jack and shit, so its not unfair that we get our fair share first. Then I’ll buy into sacrifices for a world worth saving.

Or you can eat meat and tackle inequality. Doesn’t make a difference, ultimately, does it?

And ultimately it makes sense that if one is sacrificing eating meat for the environment, then it should be those that do the most harm to said environment that make said sacrifice first.

Extreme “gamer aesthetic” cringe to me but someone will love it. I’d love a somewhat shiny rose gold one or a ThinkPad themed or a military olive one though

I mean, maybe check the sources yourself, they’re pretty clearly linked and nicely arranged in a doc for you right under the video if you’ve been living under a rock and unfamiliar with the creator or have some healthy doubts about the validity of the claims presented?

Maybe it’s better than pure dismissal out of your own ignorance.

It’s astounding that here I am being humble enough to link a good explainer on the topic rather than being arrogant enough to link the primary sources as if I’m an expert on the subject capable of fully interpreting multiple papers, and here you are, dismissing one of the most well-respected science communicators on the planet today as a “YouTube cartoon”.

Is this why we live in a post-truth world now, where folks with zero media literacy or critical thinking ability, think there is no difference between this and PragerU or between The Sun and The Guardian or Lemmy and Twitter? It’s all just “cartoons” or “news” innit? All just “opinions” and “views”. All just “politics bollocks” and “social media” and “content”.

And yeah I am strawmanning and projecting and whatnot, but that doesn’t mean I’m wrong, it is not how fallacies work.

No wonder the country is in the fucking gutter.

P.S.

Helped you eat less

I’ve not had such problems any time recent, thank you very much Mr. Ad Hominem.

This is a good thing, I’m glad the public is accepting of this.

It’s time we move away from the Christian work ethic view of obesity as a personal and moral failing and follow the science - if you are fat, it’s mostly genetic because you are simply wired to be hungry more than your friends and these drugs fix that.

https://www.healthline.com/health/obesity/is-obesity-genetic-or-environmental#genetics

According to a 2022 clinical reviewTrusted Source, more than 500 obesity-related genes have been identified in humans.

These genes can affect body weight in many ways. They can create changesTrusted Source in insulin metabolism, inflammatory responses, blood pressure, fat deposition, and the level of circulating fat in the bloodstream. They can cause you to want to consume more energy (i.e., food) but can prevent you from using it effectively.

Without them your choice is to be miserable (with all the MH outcomes that follow this long-term like depression) and hungry all the time, or to be fat and miserable due to obesity related illness like heart disease etc.

Instead of all that, we can simply block excess hunger, a trait once probably evolutionarily crucial yet no longer useful in the world of excess.

I’m someone who was overweight all my life until I started vaping, nicotine appetite suppression changed my life, I’m now skinny and by many of my ex-partners’ description pretty fit, to be treated not as some fat slob but as a human being that’s actually pleasant and even attractive is life-changing to my mental health and self-esteem, no longer is my body some wreck beyond salvation out of the gate but something I care about and for.

I hope for the same feeling for many others may come thanks to these exciting developments.

And not to get too soapboxy, but as usual, it turns out that blaming the “sick” for the “disease” was wrong and telling people to “eat less” or “exercise more” is as nonsensical as telling someone with ADHD to simply “focus” and “create habits” instead of giving them the amphetamine they need to make up for the low levels of dopamine they have so they can do these things - or even this country’s favourite passtime of denying gender dysphoria exists and that puberty blockers, hormones and surgeries fix it with non-existant regret rates, as if simply fixing a patient’s problem with treatment is a crime.

The trick is to fit exercise into a routine.

That’s not true, again he said literally the opposite - routinely exercising makes you lose less weight, not more. If anything this would suggest that exercising at random would probably make you lose weight more, just as an unfit person taking a run gets more tired faster than someone who does it every day.

Please actually read what the comment you’re replying to says.

Exercise does not make you lose weight, only eating less does, and the reason some people eat more is because they are genetically more hungry, these meds fix this, it’s that simple.
