Downvotes suck. I get it, they are made up internet points coming from strangers (or bots) that you know nothing about, and you shouldn’t let that get you down. Still, putting in a few minutes of effort to share your opinion and engage with the community just to see a downvote is disheartening....
I disagree. It doesn't matter to me if it is bots or grumpy users dow voting. I think the overall benefit of having them treated the same out weighs negatives of abuse. It adds value to the masses vs enabling the individual, yep it comes with feeling bad but that is life. Pushes quality of posts and discussion, some post truly don't deserve a retort only a downvote. Got to be fair and fair includes the ugly.

Bought a book on programming. Have been doing hobby coding for a few decades. Going to dive into a larger project so trying to learn some better practices
No, due to my medical issues. Not everyone can eat the same diet. We should reduce our wasted food which would make a huge dent in the number of animals for food.
Weak argument while standing on your subjective high ground, morality is a compass. Forcing people to follow your values is in most peoples view is immoral. Veganism is cult trying to shame people and scream at them for being wrong. No different than a religion trying to force their morals on you. Also trying to force people to a specific diet is wrong, that is not taking into account individuals health.
I agree with many of the sentiments of vegans. However living in a city filled with militant vegans has turned me off supporting them, that is an emotional response based on my lived experience. All the gibberish you spouted can go right back at you as your diatribe shows your own bias as well. So keep claiming superiority it won't sway people with all your superior knowledge. If you know so much try a tactic that is more supportive instead of belittling people.
Wow, such a superior enlightened being you are!! Empathy for other peoples culture, health, and economic status needs to be taken into account. For all the talk of being knowledgeable and a moral leader, you are blinded by your own bias. Self reflection is important for all, including you
Zero interest in converting anyone to vegan. I don't care what anyone eats, it is their choice. Only interested in reducing waste and the population. Work towards an achievable goal. I will never be vegan due to my health issues, as you have conveniently glossed over. It doesn't work for everyone, it's in the same vain as telling everyone the need to eat peanuts.
A most peculiar phenomenon unfolds. Here we observe the aggressive vegan in their natural habitat. Watch closely as this complex social interaction escalates. Here, the aggressive vegan, a creature driven not just by dietary preference but a fierce moral compass that points invariably to the nearest source of conflict over animal rights. Listen closely to the ranting "Listen up! The vegan empire is taking over! We demand organic arugula and broccoli for everyone—resistance is useless. Accept our leafy greens now! They are the spearhead of a new era of dietary purity!"
Here, we observe a remarkable display: the unhinged retort from an individual uncertain of their niche within the grand tapestry of life. These are the ramblings of what might be termed a 'Cultura Superioris'—a creature that feeds not just on plants, but on the sumptuous fare of perceived moral superiority. This behavior, fascinating in its complexity, seems driven by an insatiable appetite to elevate one's status above the fray, nourished by the wholesome food of self-declared virtue.
I consider humans a waste. Vegan = facist that doesn't take into account peoples culture, economic status, health, or the other myriad ways we are destroying each other and the planet. Reduce waste, stop having children
I know its easier than ever to dunk on how terrible reddit has gotten, but honestly? What is this? How is is safer to deliver this content to kids viewing reddit on a tablet or PC or in the app? Why even create the bs excuse?...
Have played a couple hundred hours as squad of 4. 1 guy had lots of crashing the first few weeks, replaced his ram and no crashing. The rest of us have had a few issues here and there. Biggest complaint is waiting for medals, but that seems to be resolved.
I enjoyed college and was fortunate enough to enjoy a good white collar career. But if I could do it all over again, I would have learned how to become a licensed electrician, plumber, etc.
You should only get one downvote for every two upvotes
