Has anyone here ever had sex in a canoe? I can only imagine the logistics of laying down enough life preservers to make it comfortable, and any sidewards motions should be right out unless you want to turn this into skinny dipping. I guess you could use the momentum to your advantage to get some good thrusts in, but really, has the bottom of a canoe ever smelled sexy?
As a Swedish dairyfarmer: sure, there are bad apples everywhere. But the majority of us loves our animals and if they don’t get treated well they don’t produce well.
But we need you consumers to help. Visit farms when possible, buy local or at least farmer-owned brands with high standards. Show that you care, vote in the EU election. etc.
Industry and industrial aren’t the same. The animal industry includes local farms, since they are part of the sector/industry. Industrial farms/factories are a subsector of the industry, the ones that are the actual cancer on society.
And when the milk production drops, the vast majority of dairy cows get their throat slit and their bodies sold for profit. I surely wouldn’t treat those that I love that way, but I guess animal farmers just have a very different concept of “loving animals” compared to people who have pets, for example.
Windows has WinGet now. It’s probably already installed but if not, their install page says it can be installed from the Microsoft Store. It also has WSL for running Linux programs.
Everyone who needs to use Mac or Windows due to work will very likely not have permissions to install anything anyway. And the lost souls using those “Operating Systems” out of free will … well “some just need to be left behind. The family doesn’t need to care for them anymore.”
I’ll sadly be on Mac for work until there’s a Linux build that can compete with the M1 performance, thermals, and battery life. I can’t believe I lived so long with laptops that couldn’t be used on my lap.
From what I’ve heard of colleagues that chose macOS, it mostly seemed like a pain in the ass. Like, that they can’t run the actual software, because they have ARM hardware. Or lots of small differences between macOS and the Linux that we’ll deploy to…
Package managers are great until you realize you don’t know if you need to install “firefox” or “Morzilla Firefox” or “Firefox browser”, only to realize you don’t know how Mozilla is spelled.
America has some of the best beer on Earth. Europeans really show their cultural naivete and prejudice when they say stuff like this. I used be feel mad, now I just pity them.
Was thinking more about cameras from journalists or other organizations
Their ads usually don’t show them inside even when they live there
Bringing up a Tyson competitor, the farm manager wonders how other poultry companies handle supposedly free-range-raised chickens. The short answer: They don’t, really.
“Those birds don’t go outside — you know that,” the technician replies. “They don’t all go out … Look that up online.”
The manager chimes in: “It’s not like they make it like all of ’em come out and enjoy the sun.”
“That is strictly for commercial [advertising] purposes,” the technician says. “They pick the prettiest birds [for commercials] and they toss ’em out in the grass.”
In the mean time, there’s plenty of plant-based meats along with plant-based dishes and the like. If we only wait for cultured meat, harm will continue to be done
When I used to teach European students, they would invariably go out and buy the cheapest crap they could find like cases of pabst genuine draft and then complain how bad the American beer is.
I think the British equivalent would be if I bought a bottle of frosty jack and used it to declare all British cider to be shitty.
You gotta spend some money to get good American beer. Pretty much all the nationally brewed stuff is shit. There’s a lot of local stuff that’s actually good.
I’m not sure how European beer culture works, but one of the reasons to drink shitty American beer water is that you can drink it all day without dying.
One more useless fact: I long thought that adjuncts in shitty American beer like corn and rice were strictly cost cutting measures. There’s definitely some truth to that. But the origins apparently go back to nineteenth century brewers being unable to achieve a clear lager with the barley that was available in America. When they used the barley exclusively, they kept getting a cloudy product.
At least where I’m from (Portland), it’s really not hard to find good beers, ciders, and so on. There are food carts that have 20 beers on tap and an extra collection of bottled/canned options.
Had a similar experience when roadtripping over there. Each town had a big share of local beers who were all great. Especially if you can enjoy a good IPA. Local American beers definitely are on the same level as European ones.
Just don’t buy Bud light and similar you get at a Walmart.
