From my 12y old kids perspective:

The switch 2 plays fortnite and Mario kart. The steamdeck doesn't.

There is no difficult choice for him.

He doesn't give a fuck about anything else. Neither do his friends.

Swap to a 0 calorie version and just keep enjoying it? Fizzy drinks are a pretty harmless vice in the grand scheme of things. Hollow calories, so if you can replace it with a 0 calorie version, it would at least stop affecting your weight.

I know everyone is against artificial sweeteners. They won't kill you faster than microplastics, pollution, break pad dust, war, alcohol, smoking,...

Enjoy life! Enjoy a fizzy drink! I thoroughly enjoy my daily coke zero can.

Nothing makes me giggle more than realizing a hidden loss reference. It's so silly and sometimes so obscure. Like a little online treasure hunt.

I like tasty gourmet food. But I also like junk.

I genuinely like a big Mac or a domino pizza. Are they as good as a gourmet burger or a wood oven pizza? Not even close. Can I enjoy them regularly? Absolutely.

I mean, I know lemmy has an open source hardon and hates anything walled, but is this really such a bad thing? Google is getting rid of a bunch of shitty apps and risky apps. Nothing is stopping you from still sideloading them if you really need them.

I really fail to see the actual issue aside from "google bad"

Afaik the idea is that you want to avoid someone to be able to convict their opponents. So make it impossible to take them out using the legal system. Makes total sense to me.

Expanse is like reading an amazing and realistic adventure.

Hyperion is like reading an adventure while high on shrooms.

They're both very well written and entertaining, but so different in their set-up.

Currently in my life I prefer realistic style scifi over mind bending stuff, so I'd recommend the expanse. .

Same for c, but at half the scale tbh. (with a bit of a stretch to the imagination)

50 is very hot. 0 is cold. 25c is perfect.

What a bunch of cunts

Do you have any proof of that?

Afaik in many European countries with legalized prostitution (eg Holland, Belgium,....) there is certainly no increase in illegal prostitution. But please, prove me wrong.

All research also indicates legalization upsides far outweigh the downsides.

That's a very simple way of putting things imo :)

The west also has internet access. Some people still end up hateful/believing in flat earth/conspiracy theories.

That doesn't mean they're bad people, just very misguided.

Way to misunderstand federation + legal issues... Go cry foul on reddit, they share your "outrage" mindset

Just make an account on another server that is federated with them.
