Yes, e-bikes take more resources to manufacture, especially the battery, but:

While manufacturing an e-bike is more resource intensive than a pushbike, lifetime CO2 emissions of an e-bike can be lower, because a motor is more efficient than human muscles.

If someone has an E-bike, depending on how they use it, it’s possible that it will replace more car trips than a pushbike would. E-bikes also require less physical fitness, which again can increase uptake among people who aren’t as fit or have health problems, for example.

This video is worth a watch: Simon Clark - How bad are electric bikes for the environment?

Expected you to put noodles on her head. Disappointed.

So say we all

The whinny is coming from inside the stable, as usual.

There needs to be a messaging app which provides a backdoor for every government that requests it. Every time some dumbass legislator asks for a super-giga-secure-backdoor they promise not to misuse, they should be directed to that app.

That happens sometimes with AM4. For anyone else reading this: just twist/slide parts to break the adhesion. Trying to pry a CPU off sounds like a recipe for disaster.

This is my headcanon now 😭

And Jesus has the audacity to say

Woe to that one by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that one not to have been born.

Guess what, someone had to betray you for the story to go forward

Isn’t it fascinating how you can talk honestly about religious texts when you’re not bound by dogma? Fundamentalists hate this one simple trick.

it can be helpful to consider the thought as bad as the action for the purpose of weeding that behaviour out of our lives. Not that the thought is as bad as the action, because clearly it isn’t.

Considering how many (ex)Christian folks struggle with guilt for having “impure thoughts”, that appears to be a flawed approach. You can’t control what kinds of thoughts spontaneously appear in your mind. Imo you should simply be aware that these thoughts are separate from your intentions and actions towards that person, and don’t guide those actions.

Keep in mind that the Bible treats adultery as property crime against the father or husband of that particular woman. If you try to apply Jesus’ teachings to infidelity specifically, you must wrestle with a bunch of historical and cultural baggage. Nothing wrong with treating a story as inspirational, but again, be aware that you’re making Jesus more cool and progressive than he probably deserves.

Yeah, Jesus is prone to hyperbole, agree on that.

Counter point: literally the next two verses

31 “It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’
32 But I say to you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Not to mention that “adultery in his heart” is essentially thought-crime, which I personally find rather unchill and not based.

Even more interesting that land use had a marginal cooling effect, despite also causing a net increase in CO2 emissions.

Jellyfin and sin

Why don’t you just sell your house and move?

Thanks for the explanation, you really came in clutch.

Until now I was under the impression that this was the goal of these notices:

If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.

Because if an LLM ingests a comment with a copyright notice like that, there’s a chance it will start appending copyright notices to it’s own responses, which could technically, legally, maybe make the AI model CC BY-NC-SA 4.0? A way to “poison” the dataset, so that OpenAI is obliged to distribute it’s model under that license. Obviously there’s no chance of that working, but it draws attention to AI companies breaking copyright law.

(also, I have no clue about copyrights)

Looks like Delta will be one of the first, but I don’t think it’s available just yet.

I think “Nintendo” should be treated like a plural noun because they consist of many lawyers.

Nice try kiddo, but sloth is a sin 😎
