If we're going to get into weird racism based on ethnic origin and geographic location then sorry but I'm out, I don't want people to think anything I said supports or agrees with the ideals of ethnic segregation which you seem to be preaching.
I do not believe there is any scientific evidence or social trends which show white people can't live in the south or black people shouldn't live in North America and Europe, the agenda you have of keeping people sorted into restricted locations based on ethnicity is vile to me and disappointing to see on lemmy.
Peer reviewed science gets overturned by other peer reviewed science all the time, the other person also had peer reviewed science so you don't get to just wave yours and win.
And yes your agenda is very obvious, you take the side of not wanting to be in a nuclear war - I think that's pretty much a universally agreed upon position.
However you also have another facet to your opinion which is almost as universally disagreed with as your other position is agreed with - you think that science should be falsified so it seems to provide answers which suit your social and political aims rather than it being an effort to understand the world and reach a truthful and valid conclusion.
You were very aggressive and rude to someone who did nothing more than provide more context and dissenting evidence in a discussion about science, that's not a good way to behave.
I know plenty of people that knew him, sure he was a good friend to some but when your whole personality is egotistical attention seeking through violence and disruption then yeah I'm going to quietly laugh at the irony of a shrine which only serves as a reminder to the locals that their life was made a little better and safer.
Who said it was an acceptable scenario? That's not been suggested.
You're saying we should belive any story that makes nuclear war sound even worse than it obviously is regardless of its scientific accuracy. Science should be objective truth not whatever serves the agenda you're trying to push, even if it's objectives are good.
It is worrying to see the total disregard for truth people have here, especially while calling out someone else as dishonest.
There's no way to misinterpret what he said accidentally as he explained what he meant, it's just a full and easily disprovable lie of a headline.
Yeah, especially in the southern hemisphere, a few centuries later we might have slightly different genetics through rapid evolution via population collapse but we'd probably be back developing with a bit more accurate folk knowledge and probably actually a lot of remembered tech.
It'd be terrible to the people it happened to but barely a blip in the life history of the planet from the first evolution to the last lifeforms leaving or dying.
This sort of obviously emotionaly driven vitriol makes it look like you want people to belive this regardless of if it truth as you feel it serves an important goal. The other person on the debate has shown an understanding of the issue and history of this topic while remaining civil, I don't see you counter any of his points or raise any evidence in your favor outside gishgallop links which you provide without explanation or demonstrated understanding.
I don't know or really care who's right because it's meaningless but you certainly don't look like the person with a valid position here.
True but it also feels great to let life flitter by in a disassociated daze
Yeah seriously though our uk heatwaves barely reach the average summer temp in most of the US, either this article is ridiculous or 80% of the world's population need to move.
Also we're only noticing now? Surely there's a huge disparity in elder health between say us and Italy which is routinely hotter than our heatwaves - ive always been lead to believe Italy has the healthiest old people, though that does mostly come from olive oil adverts...
I said it when the first person did it, glorifying such actions only leads to copycats and tragedy - it won't chance anyone's mind about anything
Automation has evolved a huge amount since the 90s, probably more than the mobile.phone has. This sort of device has been common in food factories for quite a while now and is inevitably moving into first high-volume then after refinement canteen kitchens before slowly making its way into the home.
It's a great thing if it does, the food industry is hugely wasteful especially when trying to lower overheads which also lowers quality and healthiness of diets. Multistage processing allows near to raw ingredients to be sourced locally and used as needed thus avoiding the need for chemical preservatives, pre-proceasing and all the transport logistics, added risk, and etc. Cheap food places could go back to the days of getting fresh produce delivered rather than bags of presliced and shaped meal components from a factory - that'd be huge amounts of plastic and oil use removed from our global consumption.
Of course this installed device is probably just fairly basic pick and place using preshaped meal components but it's a step in the evolution of small-scale industrial kitchens which will eventually benefit us all.
