Wonderful news. I just updated and it’s working again. YouTube is so far down the enshittification tunnel that it’s only a matter of time until something like this gets rolled out again. I really want Peertube to be the one, but there’s just not that many people using it. I’ve done away with reddit and Twitter and now much prefer Lemmy and Mastadon, but YouTube is harder to kick.

Has it improved health or reduced obesity, though? That’s kind of the interesting thing, here. What has happened to overall calorie consumption?

Yes, reading Superimperialism at the moment. It’s good. DoE was co-written so feels different to bullshit jobs (only other thing if his I’ve read). I think it’s an important book.

Good points. I was referring to Thatcher and the start of the neoliberal policies which led to 2008 crash and then the austerity which led from it.

As for the neolithic revolution thing. Have you read The Dawn of Everything? That book disputes quite forcefully the idea that agriculture led to class structures etc. They state that this idea is outdated and has since been disproven by archeological findings. Some ancient agrarian societies were tyrannical, others were not. In the same way some forager groups were heirachical and even had slaves and some were far more egalitarian. It’s an excellent book.

I found it powerful as it presents the idea that we choose how we live to a large extent. It’s not determined by our mode of food production/technology alone (and therefore may not be doomed).

Class war has been on since 1979.

Is there any way to build a library for a NAS without illegally downloading it?

Regardless of your political views… The fact you can watch civilians being blown up and be like “justice” is pretty raw dude. I think you need to have a think about how you relate to the world… and other humans.

Christ. New horrors beyond my imagination.

Still, my point stands that there are already risks to animal agriculture. Tasmanian devil cancers don’t make this a no go IMO.

(I am aware that’s not what you are suggesting)

I disagree with that statement generally, but anyway, you can’t catch cancer. You can catch a disease that causes cancer, but eating cancer itself wouldn’t give you cancer. You can however catch prion disease… And these can live in real flesh/meat you get from a shop.

Also, there will be ground up cancer in processed meat. I guarantee it. You don’t think farm animals get cancer?

Lol, I’m not keen on those who go out the way to act like venemous little toads.

Urp yurz.

Fucking hate spelling Nazis on Lemmy. As a dyslexic person, it makes me slightly hate commenting.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. There’s a lot in your comment. We badly need to mitigate, but we also need to put a lot of our resources into ensuring we survive as a species. A lot of money is needed in the global south, particularly (who have, on large, barely contributed to this problem).

Very true. Some of us can afford to live with a bit less and recalibrate their life towards improving things. Not all can, though, of course.

It’s almost as if we should be spending our time working to mitigate climate change and helping build societal resilience instead of working on meaningless careers…
