crapwittyname,

You know that defence and space are pretty much the same industry, right? Do you like the idea of working on satellites/launchers? Not for spacex obviously. But there are others. It’s a pretty great career. Best bit is you get to fire the most annoying projects literally into fucking outer fucking space at the end.

You can’t do this with your boss though.

crapwittyname,

I’m based in Europe so I don’t know too well how it works in the US, but if you work for eg Airbus space over here, you won’t be working on aircraft or missiles, just space.

crapwittyname,

I think that’s probably true. But the avionics in a satellite are wildly different. And, at least where I work, we use a lot of FPGA.

crapwittyname,

It looks like it given the symbols used. P for pressure, rho for density etc. u-arrow is definitely a vector field, so it could be fluid flow. Otherwise it could be equally anything described by a vector field, like electromagnetism or gravity but they usually have a lot more E and G involved I think. I used to solve these but then I got a certificate so now I don’t have to.

crapwittyname,

Nobody is blaming the dogs. The humans that bred then to have the instinct to never let go until their prey is dead, they are the bad guys here. It’s a bit like how pugs are fraught with health problems their whole lives because people think their funny faces are cute. Not their fault, but they have to live with it. XL bullies aren’t evil. They’re just doing what their breed does. Unfortunately what their breed does ends up killing people quite often.

crapwittyname,

Anyone keen enough to be a police officer/politician/CEO should on no account be given the job.

crapwittyname,

This is beautiful. Shutting down the discourse completely by virtue of being inarguably correct. I applaud this comment.

crapwittyname,

As always, if someone has a good worldbuilding idea, somebody has already thought of it.
As usual, it was Terry Pratchett.

crapwittyname,

There definitely is an element of people just not liking it because it’s new, but there’s also an element of not getting any say in it whatsoever.
Also, they really do get in the way. They make it harder to get a good seal between your mouth and the bottle at any angle, and at the top they hit your nose. They are slightly harder to use, especially if you’re using one hand for any reason, including if you only have one hand. Removing them without tools results in a sharp bit of plastic which pokes and irritates your skin.
Finally, this is another patronising effort which makes consumers lives more difficult (by whatever amount) while not doing enough to combat plastic waste.

Volume. They only use heart emojis in morse code to communicate all their messages in NI. Also the entire government website and all companies start and end their webpage with a mandatory 600-heart header/footer, for security.

crapwittyname,

Would be a fucking nightmare to keep that in any kind of stable orbit.

crapwittyname,

T’as oublié la liaison. La putain de liaison de merde fait chier.

Or, alternatively, having enough energy for everyone would mean no more population problem. Many thousands of people smarter than you and I believe that fusion power is feasible, and in our lifetime, and have dedicated their entire professional lives to that goal.
It’s an insult to them to have wave it away like this.

Palestine ≠ Hamas.
Since your entire argument hangs on us accepting the opposite, you should probably find a new one mate.

crapwittyname,

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by...

crapwittyname,

I love vegans. A few of my friends are vegan. There are two things some vegans will say which boil my piss, however. First is that they have a moral high ground because they don’t eat animals. This isn’t a given, it’s a complex and nuanced argument I’d happily partake in if the other party weren’t approaching it with a top-down belief that they’re already in the right. Second is the notion that we should all be vegan to save the planet from climate apocalypse. I don’t want this comment to get too long, but I have multiple problems with this faulty line of reasoning, and it muddies the waters. The only likely effect of it is that less progress is made on stopping global heating. So the upshot is that these people are literally sacrificing the ecosystem they purport to care about in order to bang their drum. Fuck that.

crapwittyname, (edited )

I don’t think you get to make a black and white, general argument about this. How about this: if a person raises and cares for a chicken, giving it a charmed life it would have otherwise never had, but takes and eats its unfertilised eggs, then that’s not morally wrong.
It’s just not as obvious as people think, and your first sentence is a naive oversimplification and a great example of the kind of lazy argument I’m talking about. But I don’t want to get into it with my friends since it’s such a touchy subject, and I’ll never get a decent conversation about it online.

crapwittyname,

Veganism is the topic. Vegans don’t eat eggs.

crapwittyname,

You’re proving my point quite nicely

crapwittyname,

Veganism IS morally correct

~that’s you. That’s you talking about veganism.

crapwittyname,

Eggs is a different topic

~again you, saying that eggs are separate from veganism.

You appear to be disagreeing with yourself, never mind me.

crapwittyname,

You’ve found the source. This is outright plagiarism.

crapwittyname,

That’s not how this works. There’s no point in talking if everyone just makes unrelated statements.
