Well, we're certainly not getting away from mining with solar and wind.

In fact, the amount of uranium used is so low that the amount mined per megawatt-hour is probably way less than for building solar and wind.

Thanks. Is lemmy.world the best instance for general discussion?

Here are some specific questions.

  • Are the upvotes and downvotes I make, private? If I report a comment, is my report private?

  • Can someone follow me across lemmy instances based on my username?

  • If I want to make a community, is there a reason I would choose one lemmy over another?

  • Are the powers of moderators similar to reddit's?

  • Where can I find a list of most active lemmy instances?

  • Any other differences from reddit I should know about?

Images of women dominate social media because men with power (and money) tend to like looking at them

Lol you think all the horny 20 something dudes salivating over Instagram hotties have power and money?

Basically I'm looking for a heterodox political lemmy community where moderate opinions are valued and the level of discourse is pretty good. Where people are there to talk and there's not as much venting.

Yes. Defense is important. Pacifism is unworkable in today's geopolitical sphere. Weapons create peace.

No. The State of Hawaii is the largest landowner on Maui, followed by the real estate company Alexander and Baldwin. Do not spread misinformation please.

It’s cute how everyone is pretending there’ll ever be another election if Trump gets back in

God I am so tired of these hysterical takes. What you should worry about is Trump using the machinery of state to crack down on political enemies, not him becoming dictator for life. People watch way too many movies

This is only true if you believe that solitary pursuits are worse for people than the kind of social engagement that is common on social media. I definitely don't agree, but I'll hear you out if ou want to explain.

Range of motion exercises are extremely important once the acute phase of pain and swelling goes down (~1 day). Ankle rotations and making the cross. Do it a lot.

If you have bruising, or the pain and swelling persists after a day of RICE, see a doctor.

Can be improved by ignoring votes on posts from people who haven't actually opened the post, and also ignoring votes entirely from serial downvoters. You could even make certain votes more powerful, say if someone who never votes on something decides to vote - that should weigh more than someone who votes everything (especially if they upvote or downvote everything)
