I switched to a somewhat custom keyboard and only use my pinkies for 1 key each during normal typing. It’s probably not an issue for most people, but for me the pinkies were the most affected by repetitive strain before i switched.

That post title took way too long to read

This is false

Every county in my state always votes red. Due to the way elections are held in this country, it does not matter how I vote. I could vote for Harris, on the tiny chance that enough others will as well, or I could vote 3rd party, and at least increase the percentage of voters doing that so that it doesnt seem as useless next time. Hell, I could vote for trump and there would still be no difference.

There are better ways to fight fascists than making fun of their appearances

“Good” is just a word defined by those who use it, like all words. Christians can say that only God is good, and I can disagree with them.

I don’t think anyone should be tortured for eternity, no matter what they do. Punishment is only useful to society to dissuade people from breaking social contracts. No one gains anything by causing unnecessary pain, no matter how much we may think someone “deserves” it. If there is no way for us to hurt anyone in the afterlife, there is no need for punishment. Therefore, if God were to punish someone anyway, it would be out of cruelty rather than love or goodness.

If God’s judgement were fair and our understanding was flawed, then it is God’s obligation to explain in simple terms why it is flawed. Until this happens, I am unable to believe that God is anything other than fictional or cruel.

He is often said to also be omnibenevolent. I would argue that giving people free will, then sentencing them to eternal torture for using it, contradicts the omnibenevolence.

The alternative is to stay exactly the same, and imo thats worse

I would recommend using an ad free lemmy app. This is not the right platform for making money, especially through ads.

It’s all pretty much been said already, but I feel like I’m taking crazy pills when I read takes like yours.

You mention the possibility of things going wrong with nuclear, but you don’t mention the things currently going wrong with fossil fuels. Coal is killing people right now, and actively “making large swaths of the earth uninhabital”.

Depending on your source, nuclear is either the safest or second safest energy production method, even when including Chernobyl and Fukushima.

Nuclear is not the end goal of power generation, but it is the best we have right now.

First thing i thought of lol

tone indicators are useful for indicating tone. if you don’t want to use them, don’t, but anyone that wants to will, and those that need them will apreciate them. /srs

The flex isn’t that we exercise, it’s that we exercise for the sole purpose of exercising. Most “natural” exercising is just used to get food/shelter/etc.
