What bother’s me about these sorts of posts is they don’t give people a consumption goal. Blindly telling everyone to consume less isn’t exactly fair. Say, for example, there’s person A who consumes 1 unit of red meat per month, and person B who consumes 100 units of red meat per month. If you say to everyone “consume 1 unit of red meat less per month”, well, now person A consumes 0 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 99 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Say, you tell everyone “halve your consumption of red meat per month”, well, now person A consumes 0.5 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 50 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Now, say, you tell everyone “you should try to eat at most 2 units of meat per month”, well now person A may happily stay at 1 unit knowing that they’re already below the target maximum, they may choose to decrease of their own accord, or they may feel validated to increase to 2 units of red meat per month, and person B will feel pressured to dramatically, and (importantly, imo) proportionally, reduce their consumption. Blindly saying that everyone should reduce their consumption in such an even manner disproportionately imparts blame, as there are likely those who are much more in need of reduction than others. It may even be that a very small minority of very large consumers are responsible for the majority of the overall consumption, so the “average” person may not even need to change their diet much, if at all, in order to meet a target maximum.

I don’t understand your comparison; how does the misappropriation of a symbol equate to one using their popularity to increase awareness of a subject?

I acquire music either through saving what I hear being played around me (if like it), by recommendations from people, by using Spotify’s recommendations algorithm, or by saving all the music from an artist that I’ve found and filtering later by shuffling my library. The last one can become a little overwhelming as I’ve found that it can quickly balloon the size of one’s music library, and the size can be daunting for me to filter through, but it does help me find some obscure music from artists that I like.

IMO, one of the worst parts of the article is this quote:

[…] “We might have to put DOGE on Elon,” [Trump] said. […] “If DOGE looks at Musk, we’re going to save a fortune,[sic]” […] ^[1]

To me, this reads as an admission of guilt from Trump that he instructs DOGE to withhold its scrutiny from entities favorable to him, and that he biases it towards entities unfavorable to him.

[Tesseract is] a Photon fork.

TIL that Tesseract is a Photon Fork. Would you know, by chance, at what point in Photon’s development it was forked to form Tesseract, and what the rationale was?

It took me until ”🤕🍦🎖️" to realize what I was reading.

That’s pretty neat!

You’re welcome! 😊

IDK if they’re “Fediverse specific”, but I love SSTF’s (@[email protected]) art.

Could you please define exactly what you mean by “left-wing”?

What client are you using?

I use Lemmy UI ^[1], Tesseract ^[2], and Thunder ^[3].

[…] Boost is totally screwing up the references display

Yeah, I’ve heard report of that bug in Boost before [1] [2].

Out of curiosity, what does it look like for you?

It’s not off-topic when the person in question is involved. […]

As stated in the title, the topic is concerning the AI bots that are spamming GitHub repos ^[1], not anything to do with nutomic. I personally encountered the bot in nutomic’s repo ^[2], so I simply used it as a generic example. Given this, your comment feels off-topic, imo.

Maybe a joke at the expense of StackOverflow. […]

Yeah, I figured that, but I don’t understand how it’s relevant to the topic of this post.

I’m not sure I understand the relevance of your comment. Could you explain?

[…] Who’s that […]?

I presume they are referring to @[email protected] ^[1]; nutomic is one of the main Lemmy developers ^[1.1].

Context? […] what does he have to do with this post?

If they are indeed referring to @[email protected], I presume they are mentioning nutomic because the example GitHub repository that I cited ^[3] is owned by nutomic ^[2]; that being said, specifically regarding their claim itself that nutomic is transphobic ^[4] and is a genocide denier ^[4], it is entirely off topic, imo.

I will make no comment on the veracity of the claim itself without evidence. I do not wish to speak for nutomic — I will let them speak for themself here should they wish.
