We are using their tools though...

Well, you are, while I am on PieFed:-P If you do not like what you've heard here, then consider switching to Piefed.World (Lemmy.World's recently-announced PieFed replacement for Lemmy)

ml says “avoid criticizing Russia, china, North Korea, communism, communist figures, or cursing at our special little gremlins who will spew vileness at you entirely unprompted. But also don’t be a dick or deny atrocities, unless doing so interferes with any of the previously stated rules.”

If only! To be pedantic though, what Lemmy.ml actually says is:

A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers

and

No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

Which (somehow?🤷‍♂️🤪) translates to what you said, except... no wait, it does not? Hence it says one thing (my quotes) while doing exactly the opposite (your quotes), in point of fact.

On the other hand, there's the "trust me bro, i iz total1y relaibles" defense, otherwise known as "nuh-uh, I know you are but what am I?"

Because while it is human nature to be wrong sometimes, it might be best not to actively wallow in it? (See also: Hexbear, Lemmygrad.ml, and some smaller ones such as midwest.social)

The meat is not just armor though - a skeleton alone has no capability to move itself, the meat provides the translation between thought and action, while the skeleton is merely a framework upon which the meat rests.

As too did she.

Misinformation is dangerous. Disinformation even more so.

Capitalism sometimes kill, literally.

It depends on whether the asshole has a title of Professor.

But you are still using "logic" there, while she was using "trust", in the perceived authority source of a combination of "doctor" + "government" (they wouldn't allow selling of something that could be dangerous).

So... a direct message line to Musk you say?

There are other health effects than heart issues examined here - e.g. there's cancer, which occurs due to changes in the DNA of your cells, and that is a cumulative process (although e.g. outer skin layers replenish so in 15 years not the same cells, but I am not sure how long lung and other cells take to similarly replenish).

 

(no my OC, I am attempting to help spread this that I saw first on https://programming.dev/post/33666663 because I think it helps to know that it is not too late to make changes even for major things like smoking and our health!)

 

it effectively turned sedentary 55-year-olds into 30-year-olds when viewed through heart activity monitoring equipment.

Being that heart disease is the leading cause of death for most people in the United States, and cardiac strength is inversely correlated with heart disease, it’s probably one of the most significant studies on exercise ever carried out.
