I’ve heard some pretty weird ass views from vegans about the diet of Indigenous people who’ve traditionally relied on hunting and trapped.

Fruit of the Loom makes nice t-shirts too. Wore them as a kid and now as an adult.

I have 2 types of shirts-- shirts for when I go out, and shirts for when I’m at home or mostly at home. I like the former to stay completely clean, and I like the latter to be comprised of 1+ year old t-shirts that can get dirty/stained without worry.

I’m saying both arguments are speculative.

“All due respect”, this is pure speculation.

This entire discussion is pure speculation-- are you really going to be that guy who says "but not my comment!"?

I feel like you’re completely leaving out the gap that there will between what we’ve achieved now vs 1000 years from now. If there’s advanced life out there that’s been around for long enough, I don’t think it’s biased to say that there’s a chance their tech is far more advanced than ours. I understand what you’re saying, but let’s not pretend we’re the true generation where there won’t be any major breakthroughs. There will be, but they’ll just take longer than before. To make technological leaps comparable from the 1800s to now, it may very well take from now to the year 3000, but the point is the notion that we’re past the point of major leaps is unfounded and based on the false notion that I’m saying in 300 years we can expect technological leaps as large as we’ve seen in the last 300 years.

All due respect, our current theories are probably downright primitive to any advanced life form and there’s undoubtedly blind spots in modern day science, be it in any field.

T-shirts. Get a 5 pack each of white, black, and another color you like. There, you’re set for like a year for $30.

Gay people can’t be misogynist? Also this isn’t about ethics, it’s about BS marketing pushing Canadian oil as more ethical than Saudi oil-- from an industry that only cares about this because… they sell Canadian oil (that I’ll add is considerably more expensive to extract and gas prices would skyrocket if Canada relied solely on domestically produced oil).

That too. Cokeheads as well.

Not surprising. O&G industry is full of meatheads.

I use SoulSeek and have for decades. I have no clue what scene you’re talking about.

IMO, yes. Just for the consistency of quality and absence of fuckery. Damn near any TV show/movie/documentary is on there in at least 1080p, usually in 4K for newer stuff. For music I use SoulSeek and for eBooks I use LibGen.

Private tracker I’ve been using for like 17 years still works.

I have access to a higher end DSLR if I want, I just prefer using an older camera. It gets boring when the camera does 99% of the work and puts out an image so clean it’s almost sterile. Until my camera breaks, I’ll keep using it.

I’ve been in it for 10 years now and I largely use the same gear. My camera is 16 years old and my lens is about 12 years old. I use a Neewer tripod and sometimes swap lenses with someone I know who has a nice 70-200 mm.

My stupid ass thought I could maybe get into wood carving on a small scale… Checked the price of wood and noooope.

Only thing that sucks about woodworking is unless you have a house of your own, it’s very difficult because of how much dust and noise is produced. Woodworking in an apartment is very frustrating.

Photography. Cost of a used high quality DSLR + batteries + storage cards + cheap tripod = $500-ish. Lessons = free thanks to piracy and YouTube.

You’re definitely a white guy lol, thanks for the laugh. You really can’t see how being a white guy and having the privilege that comes with that isn’t relevant to a discussion about privacy and security, really? Like come on, I’m a POC but as a man, I also am well aware of how ridiculously privileged I am when it comes to being a little careless about my privacy and security.

Never commenting, but only showing votes could result in someone getting doxxed because their up/downvotes could be about regional instances, i.e. their city/state. Why play dumb about what can be used to dox someone? You really think one needs a home address as a starting point to dox someone? Regional plants and their growth stages can be used to dox people who post local photos online without thinking twice about security and while that obviously won’t result in a home address right away, breadcrumbs leave a trail. You clearly just haven’t thought about this much becaaaaaaause… like I said, privileged white guy that can afford to not consider this stuff.
