Damage

Modern installations are supposed to have overcurrent and ground fault protection on all branches, so the fuse is somewhat useless and you have an extra protection against electrocution.

Most European receptacles only accept a plug if both prongs are pressed in at the same time, so children can't get electrocuted without being exceptionally clever

The premise of The Good Place..and other works I imagine

I became a full-on programmer after joining Lemmy. Coincidence?

But to do that you'd have to cut her in half

Send like an unnecessary complication over using zyklon-b

It's pretty much in line with right to repair and similar initiatives as well, everything that's sold should be made to maximize longevity and use, while the last ~50 years have seen a focus on making people spend as much as possible, with products that are made to be replaced as frequently as users will tolerate.

For the same reason we need regulate all the IoT crap that's been proliferating all over.

What the fuck

Lol I think we'd need a whole discussion on philosophy and psychology to correctly address these points, and I doubt either of us is qualified enough.

Projecting human morality on animals is... Funny, as our higher empathy is essentially a social animal's trait that helps its group survive. Extending it to the whole universe is surely possible but who are we to say whether it's correct or not? We can only evaluate measurable effects, such as those on our ecosystem.

Regardless, I never wanted to start a discussion on veganism, I don't approve of current farming methods anyway, just pointing out that your definition of normal was wrong.

Well I fully agree that virtually all modern animal farming is cruel and should be reformed, yet I don't think Veganism is the only answer.
And of course Vegans shouting "YOU! Stop eating meat NOW, you monster!", only manages to make people LESS likely to do that.

We live in a world where there are animals that take the place of other animals' tongue; where insects farm other insects; where parasites live in the skin of animals and different animals eat them, forming a symbiotic relationship; where predators often kill for fun.

Normal is the right word.

Of fucking course they are

It's not, but who will be able to tell once the comment is removed?
