Start by finding a general consensus over where we should go, the rest will follow.

Utility bots that are summoned on demand, probably, as long as we have a good process to kick them out if they are not helpful.

Regular commenter bots? Certainly not. The point of lemmy is to talk with other humans.

Gruyères, Switzerland. 2000 inhabitants. Famous for the famous Swiss cheese of the same name.

Not a direct answer, but I highly recommend reading Outlive, by Peter Attia. It’s completely changed the way I think about these things. And it’s actually grounded in science.

I use World Poker. Not FOSS, unfortunately.

Thank you!!!

No 😁

It’s just a funny video from LinkedIn or TikTok

It seems like a lot of people think Palestine needs to do stuff but Israel doesn’t. I’m not sure if it’s a double standard, racism, Israeli exceptionalism or what.

In my case, it’s none of that. It’s your question: “how can Palestine gain its freedom”.

Now let’s be crazy for a moment and imagine that both sides collaborate to fix the issue. I think it would be mostly the same for Israel: get rid of the lunatics, realize that Palestinians are fairly close relatives, work on forgiveness on both sides, and work on a fair two-state solution or even better a single-state solution.

Here’s my take on it:

1. Get rid of all extremists and violent factions internally (extremely hard, of course).
2. Engage in intense diplomatic lobbying, and be patient. If step 1) has been achieved, I think it would be extremely hard for Israel to resist the pressure, but maybe I’m too naive. Right now, it’s extremely easy to dismiss the Palestinian cause because of terrorism. What happened at the beginning of the conflict isn’t going to help.

Usain bolt, to some extent

I meant using your polish nickname as your official Spanish name.

How about using your Polish nickname (surely you have one?)? This would likely be easier to spell for the average Spaniard, while staying closer to your identity than going full “Gregorio González”.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will try.

Tomato juice, maybe?

One day here and there, sure. Going to another place to work for a week or more? Absolutely stupid. Work is still work, and if you have to work, you might as well work in the best conditions, not on some small screen that you can barely see because of the sun.

We still talk far too much about it, though. For example, I posted about a breakthrough in Alzheimer’s research yesterday. In what world do Reddit’s issues justify one hundred times the coverage of that breakthrough?

This is why we need law to mandate security updates for 5+ years.

I always buy the cheapest option on the shelf (in terms of food).

The question is not necessarily which option you pick, but that you feel the need for a particular product at all. Without advertising, for example, people would buy far fewer sodas. I’m pretty sure the same goes for tech gadgets.

A very simple example: advertising makes you aware of brands. Just knowing that a brand exists might be enough to influence your decision in the future. Think about it: are you more likely to choose the brand you heard about, or the brand you don’t even know exists?
