Honestly, if we could convince enough people that the second amendment had a typo, and that they really meant, “the right to bare arms,” as in flannel shirts with the arms cut off, e.g. this:
I think we could make a lot of progress with compromise and unification.

Yes, Officer, this post right here.

Own a musket for home defense, since that’s what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. “What the devil?” As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball-sized hole through the first man, he’s dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it’s smoothbore and nails the neighbor’s dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grapeshot, “Tally ho lads” the grapeshot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.
Imagine having to do all that in the nude. It would get silly rather quickly.

Yes, and by using blue water, too. If the commercials are to be believed, we’re anthropomorphic bears that occasionally jet azure fountains from our butts.

This is the kind of constructive, rational and informed opinion that flies in the very face of the concept of internet forums and everything for which they stand. If you won’t rabidly advocate for an extreme position on an insignificant issue with an irrationally vitriolic diatribe, what are you even doing here? This is Lemmy Shitpost. Please observe the appropriate decorum, and comment accordingly. So fuck you and the ISP you rode in on. You can have my daylight bulbs when you pry them from my cold, dead fingers.

I know this is probably a mundane engineering thing, but it sounds like a ramp up to a Black Mirror episode. We just need some kind of social commentary. Maybe the waste energy secretly contain MacGuff-ons, a known chrono-hazard. Only the poorest people will use it, for lack of alternative?

For it to be consistently available in national grocery chains, it would probably have to be industrialized like the current meat industry. That puts a lot of limits on how it could work. For starters, there are a lot of species of animal that people will hunt for food that aren’t economical with industrial farming/ranching methods. Their meat is expensive, available minimally in the supply chain and relegated to specialty shops.
So now, we’re in a position in which there’s a globally massive demand and supply for the meat, just to have commonly at grocery stores. That implies the meat is mostly farm-raised. We’re probably looking at a population of around 100 million. Using other aspects of the meat industry as a model, the meat is probably mostly juvenile, female and without a lot of genetic diversity. This analogy is getting uglier by the second, and I don’t want to flesh it out any further.
All the other alternatives would make for more expensive, lower quality meat, which consumers don’t like. Thankfully, human burgers are probably not on the menu for the foreseeable future, and if they were, it would likely be a short, self-limiting horror show.
