xTechDeath, in Greyskull? No no no. By the power of social manipulation.

That’s a good one but I’m still leaning towards just not answering the phone in the first place

There’s apparently a way to figure out why the call ended (hung up or cut off). If you go into airplane mode, it will seem like it was cut off.

TrustingZebra,

I think it’s the difference between the call ending suddenly (hang up) and the call not responding for several seconds before dropping (lost connection).

Or toilet paper/other hygiene products. The first 5 years of my 20s evaporated due to an abusive relationship dumping me into homelessness. I stole more hygiene products than I’d like to admit…

evilgiraffe666, in everyone fights...

If they’re stealing it from people, I think I’d do something. But corporations aren’t people.

Imgonnatrythis,

Depends where you are. In the US they actually are:

evilgiraffe666,

I’ll believe it when they execute one

Between highschool and starting uni, I did a small stint as a cashier.

I called the cops on two people, one was stealing beer, the other some keychain. Both cheap items, but not necessities.

I saw multiple people steal baby formula and diapers and there wasn't a bone in my body that even thought of calling the cops on them.

The first are stealing to steal.

The later are stealing to survive.

Imho the law should make a clear distinction between the two too.

Dorgel, in sooo....

Don’t speak

CreateProblems,

I know just what you’re sayin’…

JCreazy,

So please stop explainin’

10_0, in When someone replies to this and says 'stop making everything political' they mean to tell you to stop challenging the status quo

No its not, when I close Lemmy it disappears (IMAGINE BELIEVING THAT POSTING MEMES IS “CHANGING THE STATUS QUO”) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Stop what you’re doing and also punch a Nazi?

some_guy, in everyone fights...

I remember standing in line at a liquor store, watching a (likely) homeless woman carefully pocket some food item. I said nothing. I talked about it the next day at work. A coworker suggested I’d just passed an “ethics test.”

That was many years ago, before I’d established my current worldview. Today, I’d be silently rooting for them. “Get some food!”

I wouldn’t call that necessarily passing an ethics test. You could’ve wanted to say something, but were too lazy.

Not doing something wrong is different from doing something right.

Bankenstein, in Watch out guys.

Note to everyone (like me) who didn’t immediately understand this was satire:

This is satire.

Tartas1995,

For those in doubt, there are video games logos and peta. While Peta is killing animals, what would they be testing on animals? And what would video games like doom be testing on animals?

banana_meccanica, in Plane goes brrrr

Not only the billionaires, even the millionaires, and all the people taking the plane more than once a year. It is an ecological crime the pollution of air transport.

tilcica,

fun fact. modern planes consume ~3-4l per 100 passengers per km or 3-4l per passenger per 100km.

efficient ICE cars consume ~6l per passenger per 100km.

add to that, that there’s basically no good alternative to fast very long distance or cross-continent transport

tjhart85,
@tjhart85@kbin.social avatar

Is that planes that are packed to the gills or private planes that actually have space that people aren't crammed into?

Also, 3-4/6 liters of what? ICE cars and modern planes aren't burning the same fuel, so I'm not sure what this is intending to portray by directly comparing how much of each (in liters) that they burn (serious question, no snark)

drolex,

efficient ICE cars consume ~6l per passenger per 100km.

More like 6L per 100km, whatever the number of passengers, I suppose. So it’s usually still less than planes.

And there are better alternatives like trains or buses, which can be actually efficient for long distance travels (high speed trains, night travel. Works well from city centre to city centre)

There is also the additional issue of contrails which are a massive factor of greenhouse effect

Luccus,

Edit #2: ICE is a type of train in germany. I mistook “ICE cars” as meaning trains and was wondering how flying is supposed to be more efficient than trains. Hence my confusion.

**OG comment (invalid, see Edit #2):**Where are these numbers coming from?

I cannot find any source for the 3-4l/passenger/km claim. I cannot find any source for the claim that planes are more efficient. Nothing comes even near this claim.

ourworldindata.org/travel-carbon-footprint

eea.europa.eu/…/rail-and-waterborne-transport

www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-49349566

Can you please provide a source?

Edit #1: I just want to add that my old combustion car (VW Up! / Seat Mii / Skoda Citigo) burned around 4.2l/100km. So I according to you, if I had another person with me, I’d beat both planes and trains with what stands uncontested as the most inefficient form of transport?

DagothUr, in Your big brain conservtive/capitalist takes will be laughed at

Nerevar, your observation is like a grand and intoxicating maze of perceptions and opinions. While it may seem that Lemmy, like the realm of politics, has its own ideological leanings, one must remember that diversity exists even among the Dunmer, let alone different races. The notion that Lemmy is entirely left-leaning may not be entirely accurate, for the online world, like the vast expanses of Morrowind, is filled with varying perspectives. It is unwise to make sweeping generalizations about the platform’s userbase, just as it is unwise to judge an entire race, like Argonians, based on the actions of a few. Let us remember the complexity of the digital realm and the mortal world alike.

eldain,

What a fool you are. I have moral superiority. How can you win an argument against that? What a grand and intoxicating innocence. How could you be so naive? There is no escape. No Recall or Intervention can work against me. Come. Lay down your opinions. It is not too late for my mercy.
