Yeah, agreed. Life wants to live. Pain and fear is something animals feel so they can get away from potential harm. If you’re immobile like a plant, it doesn’t make sense to feel pain. Plus you don’t have a brain nor a central nervous system. 70% of global crops are fed to animals. Stop eating animals and grow forests there, to make our planet healthier.

Plants have feelings too
No, they do not. There is no serious study to suggest that they do. Plants do not have a brain or central nervous system. At most, they respond to stimuli. If you really care that much about the welfare of plants, you should go vegan, since many more plants “die” for animal feeding.
Do you feel bad while mowing your lawn? And would you rather rescue a potted plant than a dog from a burning house? Is docking pig tails the same as branch trimming to you? Question upon question… - Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I agree (and the downvote wasn’t me), this is talking from a privileged position. My thoughts on downsizing and No, thank you still apply though.

Not sure if this is good advice. by joining the gamble, you’re (micro-)fueling the global suicide machine that’s causing all this. Someone has to earn the money that you make, and it’s usually either by destruction, exploitation or scamming.
I try to break free from all this stuff by downsizing. Second hand clothes, Repair Café, holidays at youth hostels like 40 km from my home, meeting/making local friends and very important: raising your kids to not be spoiled, entitled, materialistic cunts. That’s the power of No, thank you.
It’s so calming to switch to a lower gear and find happiness in baking a cake from handpicked apples than another TV and holiday in Asia. - Comment on Black widow life 4 weeks ago:

I already played Selaco and liked it very much. It looks phenomenal, all the particles and the mood lights, it’s such a beautiful chassis. Only the enemies are real bullet sponges, that’s not to my taste. I’d rather have shorter combats or more enemies than sinking clip after clip in one simple enemy. But it’s just a personal preference, go play it!

Hey, just in case people don’t know: There is a very lively community still playing Doom II. There are incredible mods and maps, from minor addons to gamechanging mechanics. I love Brutal Doom for it’s modern shooter feel and the pixel-gore. But there is loads of other stuff, years of fun!

We will not solve it, it’s way too late. Still, every 0.01°C additional warming counts. People not born yet will suffer more from everything we don’t do now. So, rolling on your back and giving up is not helping at all. Going vegan is a great easy first step to make a difference. Blow up pipelines after that. :)

Use DietPi, it’s a great OS

Hey, I didn’t mean that as an insult to you. It’s just a minor annoyance I wanted to share. If it sounded too harsh I’m sorry.

Well done, thank you.
I’d love text information like this to be copy pasted for a couple of bytes instead of sharing screenshots of text like some filthy boomer. - Comment on Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar? 1 month ago:
Please read (or listen to) How not to die. It is a great book, funny and full of cool information, it changed my life a little.

I was fiddeling with my Raspberry Pi 4 but decided to buy a refurbiahed Dell Wyse Thin Cient 5070. It cost like 70€, I put DietPi on it because I love it, plugged an external drive and I’m very happy with the experience.

Lab meat is a distraction to keep consumers from changing their ways. Like hydrogen for Big Oil, they keep telling us that this technology will have a great impact … In the future! Until then, we don’t need to worry and just continue giving dirty money for their destructive product to an evil industry. All while alternatives in form of plant based meat / solar are getting better and cheaper by the minute.
Seriously, did you try plant meats in the past months? There is no need to wait for lab grown meat anymore. Just buy plant based alternatives and get used to a food that tastes mostly like the animal tissue you’re accustomed to. - Comment on Establishing an ideal home drive using raspberry pi 4 model B(xfce)with help of nextcloud 3 months ago:
Synching of incredibly useful, my list of synced folders keeps getting longer, my list of added devices keeps growing. I pray the never drop android support!

I again want to recommend DietPi. Installing software like NextCloud from it is as easy as choosing it from a menu and hitting enter.

Keep being a decent human bean still is the way to go, though. Otherwise it’s a race to the bottom, Marquis de Sade-style. Fuck these psychopaths, you’re better than them!
- Comment on Why do people hate coldplay? 4 months ago:
Wikipedia says it’s written by all four members of the band. And I agree, they’re super mainstream and unremarkable but Viva la Vida is perfect. The lyrics are epic, poetic, wise, sad and true. The instrumental is flawless, simple yet classy with these strings and the choir. The atmosphere is unlike any other song I’ve ever head and it’s breathtaking even after listening for the 100th time. A true masterpiece.
- Comment on DietPi is great! 4 months ago:
Agreed. The phrasing “lightweight justice” always sounded strange to me as well. They could go with a friendlier, a more mainstream product design.

I use Syncthing to sync DCIM and Pictures folders from Android to my computer. Every six month or so, I move pictures from these folder to the folder for this years pictures: home/pictures/2025. So they disappear from my phone as well, which is great to free up space. I like this solution.

Writing this from a degoogled Pixel 4a bought second hand for 80 bucks a couple years ago. Great camera, enough storage, fingerprint sensor, headphone jack, fits in hand and pocket. This is near prefect, new phones are scam.

I just talked to a friend a couple days ago, we’ll take a weekend off, do a hackaton to rebuild our sites in this style. Dithering the images looks really cool, I’d like to do his as well.
