It's sad that the commenter allows his children to go cyberpsycho on virtual bystanders but won't allow them to see a nipple.

There is a reason the game has an age restriction.

You allow them to murder hundreds of virtual people or creatures, but sex is a bridge too far?

On driving factor is the (over)use of antibiotics in animal agriculture. It's weird the article touches this issue in just one sentence...

"Over 70 percent of antibiotics sold in the United States are given to livestock, including cattle, which translates to significant human health impacts."

"Unlike with human medicine, however, antibiotics are often fed to cattle as a preventative measure, rather than as a treatment."

"Antibiotic resistance in cattle does not only affect the health of the cattle, it impacts people as well because many of the antibiotics given to cattle are also used in human medicine. Eating meat or consuming milk from an animal with antibiotic-resistant bacteria may infect a human with that same resistant bacteria"

Believed?

They sprayed the name of the course on the wall.

We have 99 problems in Belgium but religious nuts come out with pitchforks because their child might hear in school that being gay is not something to be ashamed of. Blessed be the fucking fruit.

Although good news, maybe do something about the fact that every minute 13 million dollar in subsidies is going to fossil fuels... In 2022 the total was 7 trillion, dwarfing the 1 trillion for renewables (globally)

And is a major cause of deforestation, biodiversity decline, antibiotic resistance, water pollution and water overuse, ... And of course animal cruelty and abuse.

I'd figure those plastics wreak havoc in the long term in an individual life but won't prevent people form reproducing and developing. It might be a serious setback but just a hurdle for humanity. Climate change, our nuclear arsenal, ... pose more urgent threats.

preamps (lemmy.world)

Hi all,

I'm a bit swamped and confused on the use over a preamp, and ultimately if I need one.

I'm looking to upgrade my signal and to play without a cab occasionally. I don't really need a real booster (I get the volume I need)/overdrive as I already have these in my chain. Is there anything to recommend something under 120€ that would just fit my needs (preamps tend to be on the expensive side it seems).

For reference: I play on a supro dual tone and a fender telecaster.

Thank you in advance.

PS: I have done some research and thought the mxr micro amp is the kind of pedal I'm looking for. However I have no idea what I'm talking about as this is really new to me.

The problem is not the amount of people but how much each individual consumes. Getting meat out of your diet is a simple and a small sacrifice. Besides the health benefits there is also the fact that you don't contribute to the culling of 70 billion animals per year (of which 40% is probably not eaten and thrown in the trash). Not only that but you don't contribute to the greatest cause of deforestation, antibiotics resistance, decline of biodiversity, water waste, ...

Besides the global population is steadily stagnating (Africa is still booming) as a lot of countries see population decline (less than 2 children per woman).
