Reddit was awesome. It’s sad what became of it.
Started in Lemmy but kbin's reputation system woo'd me over!

Until where should we judge the actions of other people - and from when do we leave it as freedom of action?

I think this question resulted from me having an argument with my gf. We want to go to a holiday trip, and she wanted to book a hotel via booking.com. We then got into a discussion, because booking.com repeatedly ignored privacy concerns and is conciously acting illegally in regards to privacy laws of the EU (for those of you...

I'd say that the bottom line or easiest to remember rule is the point of causing harm to a living being when I make ethical decisions.

I boycott companies that don't think about the environment, use slavery etc.

Ydinvoiman puolesta, Greenpeacea vastaan – nuoret ympäristöaktivistit saivat luvan osallistua EU-oikeudenkäyntiin (yle.fi) Finnish

Ilmastojärjestö Greenpeace haastoi EU:n komission oikeuteen siitä, että se on sisällyttänyt ydinvoiman kestävän rahoituksen taksonomiaan. EU siis luokittelee ydinvoiman vihreäksi energianlähteeksi, joten energiayhtiöiden on helpompaa saada rahoitusta ydinvoimaan....

Kiitos kun otit otteita artikkelista suoraan topikkiin!

Koen että ydinvoima pesee hiilen mennen tullen.
Juu, se on vaikeampaa käynnistää, ylläpitää ja hallinnoida sen jätekäsittelyä, mutta jos halutaan sillai elää kauemmin (=ilmastonmuutos ei tapa Maapallon asukkeja)...

Olisihan se tietenkin kiva jos voitaisiin suoraan hypätä uusiutuvaan energiaan, mutta aika sille meni jo kymmeniä vuosia sitten ja nyt pitää vain lopettaa nopeasti kaikki mikä pahentaa tilannetta.

En usko sitä hyväksi ideaksi, että sammutettais huomenna maailman kaikki ei-uusiutuvat energiatuotannot, suoraan seinään.
Mut vihreän energian lisääminen samalla kun saman verran ei-vihreää vähennetään sekä saasteiden sitomista pois ympäristöstä kuulostaa hyvältä!

Beats me though why I cannot see any content in the community at Lemmy's side while having 20+ threads in the community on kbin's side 😅

Interesting to see such behavior from a wild animal!

Dunno how much or often snow is there but I live in Finland so it's (also) a very common thing here!

Could it be an age thing?

I'm 32.
I've had issues with it past maybe 3-6 years.

  • Listen at a Christmas radio
  • Watch a Christmas movie/animations/cartoons
  • Read Christmas books/comics
  • Write your own Christmas stories
  • Talk about Christmas
  • Do your favorite Christmas'y thing
  • Create a new Christmas'y habit
  • Make a Christmas music playlist
  • Create a Chistmas get-together
  • Sing Christmas carols (alone or with someone(karaoke))
  • Craft something Christmas'y

Listening at music, watching a movie and the radio has helped me reach some level of Christmas!

There are ideas and arguments that can counter consumerism.

For instance - putting away same old decorations and reusing them should lower consumerism somewhat.

Dunno how many do/don't do it 😁

I just wanted to point out a rather obvious idea 😂
Earth would also thank you!

She is not working at this place. (Well I assume so - she hasn't said she does and I don't think she behaves (otherwise) in a way that would say otherwise).

...it’s important to be upfront with your wealthier friends if you can’t afford to go to the bar

In some other/a general scenario this sounds fine 🙂
In my case - I couldn't care less about the part of not being able to buy a drink or drinking only water when someone else took something else. So, it's fine by me to sit with them in a bar.

It's her behavior that made a mood drop.
Besides...she knows that I live on the basic income support so I believe this isn't the case in my situation 🤔

They might reconsider going to somewhere else or someone’s flat instead or just invite you

Sounds nice!
In my case - I don't think anyone lives that close to the bar, and the bar has been used as a place to hang afterwards by this group for years (I believe).

.

You could try a sort of compromise and order a glass of tap water, assuming that it’s free in your country of course. That way you order something, but make it clear that you won’t spend any money. You are not sneaking in and instead being upfront with the staff.

I've never seen the place packed. Maybe 33% full tops.

WRT?

.

...if all the other people you were going with were also unwilling to buy...

Everyone else orders.

dropping a fiver

I'm not familiar with this saying. Meaning?

If the hobby has shared supplies...

Nope. Everyone buys their consumables with their own money after the hobby time, separately from the hobby activity.

I don't think this is about alcohol.
I believe most of them order something else cos it's late Monday and most people go to work the next day.

Haha. Didn't cross my mind even once to ask anything from anyone 😂

I believe that also a coke is something around 5€ here
