I consider myself pretty left (at least in comparison to the average German), but that lifestyle sounds quite tempting to me. I’d skip chicken though.

Next question is what happened that made one ‘a piece of shit beforehand’.

From a philosophical perspective, I find it quite difficult to measure a person’s evilness objectively.

Assuming a person is born evil due to their genetic material, is it then actually their fault? Shouldn’t that be considered rather as a medical condition?

Assuming a person is not born evil, but they turned evil due to outer influencing factors (parents, society, economic situation, luck, bad luck…), is it then actually their fault? Or are the outer factors the ones to blame in such a case?

I agree to the ‘the crack was always there’ statement. But personally I think that all of us humans naturally have this crack. Given the right parameters, this crack can heal to a level where it’s barely notable. But under less optimal conditions I guess more or less every human can turn (be turned) into a monster.

In terms of billionaires my opinion is that a) we should implement measures to avoid them in the first place and b) find ways to take away their power.

But other than that I would prefer a way to heal their (often abnormal) crack and try to make them again valuable members of society again. Revenge and punishment (especially death penalty) should never be the focus of corrective measures, no matter the crime or misdemeanour.

I think the unfortunate truth is that many non-evil people would be just as evil if given the opportunity. Or to frame it slightly different: I believe that too much money and/or power is what turns most people evil over time.

The Lemmy picture is blue/black for me while Wikipedia is white/gold. Is it the same picture? Or is because Lemmy fully supports dark mode while my browser doesn’t?

It’s still there, give it another go. ;)

Zip disks were originally launched with capacities of 100 MB, then 250 MB, and finally 750 MB.

Congrats, you win! 🥳

Maybe it’s a super disk LS-240. They were up 240 MB.

You can just make sorbet from fruits without causing harm to innocent coconuts.

I think chaotic instances without a clear focus are superior in terms of a stable fediverse. If you have a ‘main’ instance for programming stuff, queer topics, German content etc. you’re always at risk that the instance goes down and all content and communities die along.

Instances going down is a realistic scenario. Hacking / DDOS attacks, government takedown requests, copyright issues, hosting issues, admins losing interest… The more distributed certain topics are across instances, the more resilent they are against all these vectors.

In before all life going extinct due to a massive drought.

I had so many horrible multiple choice tests where the number of correct answers was stated and I was 100% sure that that wasn’t correct, but there was no room for additional remarks to explain my thoughts.

You only listed things she doesn’t wan’t to do with you. Are there other activities she enjoys doing together and do you enjoy these things as well? Like do you hang out with each other in person / at home or is she avoiding contact in general? Would you both enjoy to intensify these kind of activities? Are you both intested to find new activities that you can both find fulfillment together in like hiking, sewing, reading etc.?

Building muscles is more effective than cardio to burn fat. The more you have, the more calories you burn passively just by having them. Kind of like compounding interest. Cardio is healthy and good, but will ‘only’ burn fat during and right after the workout.

Might be useful if you bury someone who is still undead.
