Yesss! My first five minutes with OpenSuse.

I mean, you can change that behaviour somehow. But there are so many other small things like the constant vendor changes. Zypper is just so quirky. It's a cool distro and to have a rolling release option like tumbleweed is always a big plus in my opinion, but I just wouldn't recommend it to people who are not really eager to play around with their distro.

Ah, OpenSuse. The distro with the package management that spams your drive full of unnecessary optional dependencies.

Would always recommend EndeavourOS.

There are none.

That doesn't work. Either there is physical proof or there is none. Afaik the latter is correct.

That is lovely. Ticks are far worse then wasps. Thanks for the info.

Can't they also start to annoy ticks and fly around their faces?

Interesting. I was a triggered vegetarian and didn't like those guys calling me a cheese breather (I'm still ambivalent towards them). When I became a vegan it was because of the non-drastic stating a fact people, not because of the jerks.

So maybe we need both – and many more forms of activism?

Look at it like that: Many people become vegan because they realize that there is no magical difference between humans (or dogs, cats and so on) and the animals who are raised to be slaughtered. We all feel pain, fear and grief. So a society that kills sentient animals and eats or wears parts of their dead bodies is not too different then one which does that with their fellow humans. How angry would you be to live in such a horrible society?

The only reason to not being angry all the time is, that I needed more than 30 years to realize those things myself. How we are handling most animals, how we are torturing and killing them is normalized. It is really hard to get from "steak yummy" to a vegan world view. How can I expect that other people change their ways just like that?

It is still fucking sad and I totally get, why some vegans are so angry. Live and let live is the most cynical shit one could say in this situation.

If that comprehensive worldview leads people to defending russian imperialism, they really seem to be big dummies or just inhumane scum. It's actually pretty simple.

OP mentions this delivering 3kWh on a typical day, about 10% of a typical US household's consumption.

Wow, this is much. If you are correct, a typical US household consumes two times the energy than a typical german household.

The last numbers I found where from 2021 with 5411 kWh for a household with 3 or more people.

Nein, das ist falsch. Nazis pfeifen auf deine Meinung, wenn du „falsch“ aussiehst. Die gehen dann auch sicher nicht zu den Leuten und sagen: „deine Meinung halte ich für nicht valide“. Man ist also ganz sicher nicht mit ihnen auf einem Niveau, wenn man ihre Menschenverachtug nicht zulässt. Der Gedanke ist geradezu lächerlich.

Viel wichtiger ist aber, dass eine Demokratie zerfällt, wenn man Nazis nich (notfalls mit Gewalt) Einhalt gebietet. Das ist ganz klasssisch Poppers Toleranzparadox. Verhamlost man Faschos, sägt man selbst an den Grundpfeilern der offenen Gesellschaft!

The problem is: most times it works the other way. You are at a barbeque and bring your own stuff. There are always people who feel obliged to talk shit about you – or worse, cannot shut up about their own meat consumption, how they only buy the „good“ meat and only seldom, but how hard it would be without cheese and so on.

Yeah, there are some preaching vegans, but those few are not the reason why some people are hating on us.
