Beer and Wine are vegan drinks.
  • Wellllllll, maybe. Whitened sugar is processed with bone char, and given how white the stuf is, there’s a good chance that it’s also processed that way.

  • “Every society has the criminals it deserves.”

    • Emma Goldman

    Can’t blame anyone for retaliating against the shit conditions they’ve been put in.

    Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?
  • I don’t think I’ll ever connect with his YouTube stuff like I did with his pre-YouTube The Show. But he’s consistently churning out great stuff.

    I'm breaking the rules!
  • Speakers aren’t overkill, but my god, put up some sound panels and bass traps. Resonance in that room has to be bananas.

  • Linux on my personal computers for sure. Work? Mac all day. I can install required software and I don’t need some janky Windows terminal emulator. It’s hard to justify Windows for anything besides gaming, and even that is questionable with Linux gaming distros now.

  • You’ve also ruled out TH by knowing one is heads. So the only possibilities are HT and HH. Is that not 50/50?

    Inventing your own language and alphabet/script to reclaim your privacy in a surveillance/police state?
  • You’re seriously underestimating the governments ability to decipher a made up language. Bear in mind any government probably has entire departments dedicated to cracking codes and translation. Encryption is going to be a million times better than anything you can come up with. I’d just assume that if you can think it up, someone else can figure it out.

    on reddit mods acted like petty tyrants and were bastions of censorship. What prevents lemmy from going down the same rabbit hole?
  • That’s true. But a space that is pro or anti something isn’t a space that’s going to be protected by any semblance of “free speech.” It’s not a fault of the community, it’s by design that they want people of a similar mindset. Wanting to guarantee “free speech” in a space like that defeats the purpose of those spaces.

  • I’m saying on Reddit in particular, the comments that got downvoted into oblivion were generally of a certain variety, and OP is being very cagey about what they mean. And again, a community forms around common belief, and “free speech” doesn’t protect your inclusivity into a space, it only protects you from government action against your speech.

  • No? Evolution is a fact. Would I want teachers fired for saying things that are objectively not true? Or teaching opinions as facts? Yeah. More red flags in “go against common teachings,” here.

    on reddit mods acted like petty tyrants and were bastions of censorship. What prevents lemmy from going down the same rabbit hole?
  • Freedom of speech is not the same as freedom from consequences for your speech. Your definition of “reasonable” doesn’t sound like it’s reasonable by the consensus of users on Reddit. It seems like you’ve been fairly gun shy about posting what these “legitimate opinions” are. On Reddit, I would get in arguments with liberals a lot, because I consider them entirely too right leaning. But it never resulted in mod action or even downvoting, it was a discussion. There is one kind of opinion that pretty consistently resulted in downvoting, and especially mod action. And those kinds of opinions should be downvoted. The only things I can think of otherwise are people criticizing mods or Reddit itself and getting banned by power hungry admins, but as others have said, go to a different community if you see that.

  • I’m saying that the opinions that people piled onto were generally worth piling onto. If the things you say garner a negative response everywhere you go, maybe it’s not everyone else who’s the problem.

  • Oh it’s totally inefficient. It’s not the most feasible with my current setup, so I’m making do with what I have at the moment.
