Of course it's a cost issue lmfao. Blood soaked family.

I'm not them but tying loads/things down during fierce winds, temp gardening structures, carrying stuff (weaving nets is useful knowledge), lifting stuff/holding suspended.

Idk even stuff like if crossing a stream it's handy to have one person go first and make a temp hand rail by hanging a rope across so people slip less.

Magenta, small eco-friendly space ship, woke

I'm not disagreeing with the goal but we have some pretty fucked working conditions here. Picking stands out, fucking messed up industry.

Sharpening stones.

you need an edge so many times in your life. When you're using scissors, slicing veggies, pruning trees, harvesting mushrooms, posting online, mowing grass, carving wood, cutting roots, trimming nails, scraping stoves/ovens, shaving, digging, trimming, pealing whatever.

There are so many dumb fancy arse awful tools that butcher edges and work in one specific case. No! For millenia people have been grinding edges, it is not difficult to learn it just takes practice.

Modern manufacturing means we can enjoy extremely consistent stones in well characterised grades. Go use some, and enjoy how much less effort life requires when everything that cuts, cuts easily.

I stopped having coco when I went vegan. I hear there are non terrible ways to get it but I can't actually find any sold where I'm confident the people growing it get paid enough to enjoy the chocolate products I want.

I really miss it. Carob does not make a delicious hot drink.

The podcast maintenance phase had some great deep dives on this. On just how tiny the number of kids actually transitioning was and how the studies are based on the opinions of parents on a transphobic forum.

please, veganism is a way of life but arch linux is my reason to live.

Are people surprised by this?

Aussie privacy law is a joke

And lots, and lots, of painstakingly collected data to measure against

Not even but like literally this country. There's less justification for the Australian government to claim sovereignty here. When you look at how aboriginal Aussies are treated, by the legal system and the health system for example, it's hard to argue it isn't genocide of a minority who have a claim to this land.

I get so frustrated at how, meaningful issues about the dubious actions of nation states are justified under international law become political theatre for power struggles.

Basically all large nations have peoples that want to split, but because international law requires nations to recognise a people before they get the protection of the law nobody properly does it as everyone could say "ok, you first". International law is important, it lets us resolve conflicts without war and somewhat check superpowers. Reducing it to farce is a tragedy.
