  • Thanks, this is what i was talking about. I think i eat a healthy amount of meat, mostly white ones because of health and because istg chickens in specific have no souls. Most argumens you used can actually be outweighed by “i just like meat a lot”, which is fine, but they are still relevant to choose what meat. I mean compare, in terms of ethics, health, sustainability, and even taste a McDonald’s and a halal butcher shop.

    What i try to say is that respect is just as important, if not more, than ethics; and you need both along with a little bit of reading to get a balanced point of view.

    …Biggest problem is I’m broke af and bad meat is cheaper than good meat and no meat, ethics are a luxury not everyone can afford 🥲


  • I love how you just went “HAHA, CHECKMATE ANIMAL GENOCIDES” out of nowhere. This is why you get hate, you don’t know what a fact or a point is, and your ethics are weak. Just explain why a) you need to do diet gymnastics and take supplements to avoid animal products if they are so bad and b) are you implying every carnivore and omnivore animal is a monster?

    As i said, you do you, but be coherent and respectful. I respect vegans, morons are harder.

    Edit: I refuse to reply to someone unable to stop disrespecting others.


  • I’m not against vegans, but where the hell did you read that meat is bad? You can have an opinion, but that’s just not a fact. Period.

    If you go and tell people they are “weak” and they “100% just have cognitive dissonance” for not accepting a hot take as a fact, how do you expect anything but people confronting you? You can’t expect civilized discussions if you literally open by disrespecting the other party and dismissing anything they might argue ;-;


  • I’ve seen examples of this already where schools give kids laptops running a custom linux distro for education and they just roll with it. Also, the steamdeck happened, and a lot of people loved it before even realizing it’s just linux… We should definitely give more support to companies shipping machines with linux preinstalled (even if the first thing I’ll do is another install lol)



  • I see no contradictions between “simple is good” and “monolitic/corporate based like windows and macos tend to be shit”. If anything, reality is the opposite of what you think. We can have many different simple and ready to go distros, i mean that’s like the whole point.

    If you install windows, for example, you can use it for many things, and it’ll be mid crap in all of that and need hours of setting up (not to mention some mandatory scripts to get the bare minimum of efficiency, privacy, and clean adware and bloatware). Then, if you need to game, just install nobara and go. Need to do office or web-based stuff? Mint all the way. Same thing but you like apple aesthetic? Try Zorin. I could go on and on for hours with different use cases and distros, but you should get the thing by now.


  • To be fair, there’s already a general consensus in which are the “beginner friendly” distros, which includes the community support and familiarity with windows. Most people would probably recommend Mint to a new or switching user, for example.

    After someone is used to a more basic linux distro, diversity and complexity are pros rather than cons. “Oh you need a distro with super specific specs for a niche use case? There’s 5, you can pick or try them all”. I could have linux on every machine i own, including a TV or even a thermostat, and I’d have a different setup.
