Preferably in an easy, maintainable way. Like markdown in a git repo.

Pretty much!

That definition always bothered me a lot… The hyperactivity is always there, but it’s either internalised, externalised and sometimes it’s both. It’s the intensity of it that can vary a lot from person to person.

Where do you think most of the world’s red meat is coming from? Brazil is one of the top producers and exporters of red meat, deforestation is ravaging the Amazon.
3rd world countries are not eating red meat, we are. The link between rich countries and meat consumption has been established for a long time now.

Most cattle eat soy, not grass, that’s also a myth. Simply because soy is a whole lot cheaper, and a lot more abundant and easier to grow than grass. Also, grass is only slightly better than feed, but it generates more GEG overall because of digestion.

We need soy, so we need monocultures of soy, and that’s catastrophic, just like you said.

Transport is actually not that big of a problem with red meat. Land usage and the actual cattle are. They’re the top source of GEG emissions from agriculture.

You were talking about thermodynamics earlier. Red meat is incredibly inefficient converting resources to usable calories. 1kg of beef requires 25kg of feed.

You’re also using a lot of straw men in your arguments, living in a grass hut instead of a concrete building, or electric vehicles for cattle transportation?

You can enjoy red meat but you can’t argue in good faith that it’s not completely awful for the environment at pretty much every level.

A few sources to support my claims:

The problem is not just the farts, the problem is the absolutely humongous amount of feed and space cattle needs. Most crops grown around the world are used to feed cattle, just like most farmland is used to grow cattle. That’s what’s polluting, producing so much green house gases, deforesting, etc.

No matter how you turn it, red meat is an environmental catastrophe.

They don’t really need to bring it back, it’s always been there, just in other countries

History taught us that corpos would literally burn the world for a few more bucks. And by history, I mean right now.

Even though it failed, it probably highlighted how fragile the balance for sustainable life is, like no other experiment could have.

I think it’s been bought by a shitty spyware company who swore that they will not be mining your data. I bought it many years ago and that made me switch to Kvaesitso.

Good for you for getting out of that!

Neo liberals believe in trickle down economics though.

I mean, a lot of key software are FOSS. A world without linux, curl or ffmpeg would be extremely different.

Keep in mind that these apps are run for profit, by corporations. You meeting someone suitable and leaving the app, means less revenue for them.
So they can be fun to mess around for a while, but unless you’re extremely lucky, don’t expect long lasting relationships from them.

Possibly a world tour of grabbing billionaires and far right politicians, Bibi, Putin, Trump, Le Pen, Musk, Murdoch and all the likes, showing them the messes and human suffering they helped creating and hurling them into space or something.

What do you mean ! Women got the right to vote by asking nicely, so did workers when they got the 40h work week. Same for black people and civil rights, all was achieved by gently kissing the ruling class boots.

Sometimes my brain feels like a child throwing a tantrum, stomping their feet and screaming “I don’t want to do it” and I’m the tired, powerless parent, trying to find ways to stop the tantrum and circumvent the issue.

LLMs and generative AI will do what social media did to us, but a thousand times worse. All that plus the nightmarish capacity of pattern matching at an industrial scale. Inequalities, repression, oppression, disinformation , propaganda and corruption will skyrocket because of it. It’s genuinely terrifying.

I got the whole package, AuDHD, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, IBS, anxiety and sometimes depression. Sometimes, I wonder how the fuck did I make it this far in life before being diagnosed.

For the direct sequel of the 1931 Dracula movie starring Nicholas Cage in a toxic boss/employee relationship in a gory B movie-esque film, I think it was pretty amazing !

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Renfield were absolutely amazing and I think they fit the bill
