    I didn’t say being fat “is a binary choice”, and I never mentioned anything about fad diets.

    I get the impression that I’ve struck a nerve, and you just want to lash out. Sorry if I upset you, but this is unproductive. Your comments aren’t addressing anything I’m saying, you’re just throwing stuff out to vent.

    I have loved ones who are obese. If you’re struggling with your weight, fwiw, I don’t believe you’re worth less because of it. But please don’t spread misinformation, and instead take the time to learn more about the topic. If not for your own sake, for the sake of others who might be lured away from the path to recovery by misinfo you may unintentionally spread.

    I’m not sure what you’re getting at with the diet question. That neither invalidates nor supports what I said.

    If someone wants to be fat, they can be fat. I don’t care what other people do with their lives. I’m just pointing out that the reason why a person becomes fat is well-known, proven science. Denying that is akin to vaccine skepticism; it’s actively harmful to society. The past 8 years are a great example of what happens when we allow misinformation and pseudoscience to propagate, even if it seems silly/fringe/nobody-actually-believes-that.



  • whereas Stuhl was more like a simple stool (a small foot rest or seating without any back rest or arm rests). In German we use “Schemel” or “Hocker” to describe such a stool.

    So what you’re saying is that the meme doesn’t work in German either, because the furniture in the meme would be referred to as a “Schemel” rather than a “Stuhl”

    This meme is an abortion of human language smh





  • If you call someone a racial slur, you’re attacking an entire race of people, not an individual. Why then would you be surprised that a ton of people get angry at you instead of just the individual you had an issue with? This is some kindergarten-level social competency my dude.

    Everyone fucks up, but when you do, you’re supposed to apologize. If you’re so emotionally stunted that you can only “double down”, then you’re just digging your own grave. Society doesn’t need to accommodate immaturity/anger management issues like that, but it definitely should shun racism.

    Do better.



  • There are a lot of options if you’re experienced with Linux and know how to get things to work/are willing to do research. However, if you are new, then you should definitely play it safe to avoid frustration.

    My current laptop is an Asus PX13, which is an awesome value and probably the most powerful machine you can buy at its size. Unfortunately, Asus does not support Linux on its laptops at all, and any support that exists comes from volunteers. I’m very happy with my current setup, but there are some rough edges that come from the lack of official support.
