The comments are funny but if you read the article he just did it for the bit. Apparently he changed quite a bit over that time and regretted being an angry forum nerd, so he thought it would be funny to do one last post and abandon the account.

Wow those Billionaires mustn’t be committing many tax crimes at all. /s

I just feel incredibly angry all of a sudden.

That’s not what I was trying to say. I was specifically referring to you talking about how animals treat each other.

I don’t want anyone to suffer which is why I have mixed feelings about this.

edit: actually go fuck yourself, I don’t care, you’ve continuously put words in my mouth and obviously don’t care about having a reasonable conversation.

I literally don’t even know what you’re trying to say, I haven’t cast any judgements or told anyone to do anything. Get off your soapbox.

I don’t care how they treat each other, we should hold ourselves to a higher standard. And I’m not labelling anyone here, I just said I had mixed feelings about it.

They might get better treatment in these cases but I don’t think it would be different. I’m vegan if that helps understand my point of view.

I have mixed feelings on this. On the one hand that’s pretty interesting and like, hurray for saving lives. But on the other hand it seems kind of incredibly messed up to raise animals as sacrificial organ sacks.

That part I understand, no more formaldehyde and brains in the milk. It’s more the industry fighting against the term being used for alternative milks which should have their own standards associated with them. Coconut milk and cream have existed for ages and nobody cares. But my (dairy farmer) family all of a sudden have really strong opinions on using the term milk for alternative milks. Or other generic terms being used for vegan products like mince, sausage, burger, steak. All of these things typically have a word in front to describe what they’re made of, but for some reason certain people get real worked up when that word is ‘vegetable’.

Stuff like this is so silly. I understand having rules around how things are named, nobody wants to be misled about what they’re buying. But were cow juice enthusiasts really getting tricked into buying soy juice? Do we have to specify the animal? Can I sell rat milk as ‘milk’ and they’d be ok? What’s the difference between that and oat milk? So long as the origin of the milk is clear I really don’t see the issue.

Obviously I know it’s just dairy industry deep pockets doing what they can to remain #1 but it’s just so silly.

Hold up, the guy funding a genocide against Palestine also opposes their statehood? Woah.

I know not much about global politics. Could this be cheeky ww3? Or is this sort of thing pretty common?

Yes, I’ve always loved forests. Would love to live near one.

Israel can go fuck itself.

It was one of the stories he constantly told while he was campaigning as though it’s at all relevant to him as a leader. Meanwhile he’s off aiding genocide.

Classic Albo move. What a loveable goofball, did you know he was raised by a single parent?

cool cool cool cool cool cool

With the billions of people on the earth, it occasionally happens that more than one thing happens at a time. And sometimes there’s no agenda behind it.

I like the starship prompt. Not sure it’s really a utility, though?

Rust has a style guide and comes with a linter. But I don’t think you need to follow it if you don’t want.
