We're not going to terraform Mars, but we're doing a good job of venusforming Earth.

What's the appropriate explanation for the supernatural (holy spirit, miracles, etc.) if there's no god?
Maybe it's too much to say people who experienced this stuff are delusional? I know a lot of them personally and they live a normal life, but they keep saying testimonies about holy experience, that God talks to them etc.

Why Democrats criticize Schumer if his vote is to prevent a shutdown?
He expressed that a shutdown will favor Trump and Musk, so sounds reasonable?

Serious - what job should be replaced by AI?

I like this answer, but he deleted. It's still in my inbox so I'm gonna share but not mention the commentor's name
In germany sex Work is a normal regulated job like any other. You are insured, receive vacation days, etc. It is accepted here as completely normal work like any other. Because it is. was once in a brothel with a friend. While he was in the room with a lady, talked to the others and asked why they were doing this job. The answer was "I like dicks" and "Its fun and pays very well" To be honest, the ladies seem to enjoy their work more (and earn a lot more) than any job I've had in my life.

I don't prefer that comparison. Sure both jobs need to be physically prepared. Even if both workers are treated equally by their clients, one of them cannot do the job in public.

I'm not against it if they think it will improve their lives. As i said on my other replies, im opening my mind to this topic. I just feel bad for people who gets life ruined because of it. They are not forced to do it, but some need to go hardcore (no pun intended) because that's their only way to survive during these hard times.

Ok yeah im not aware of those people tbh

Yes, all work should be crime. Thanks dad

Yeah i forgot about casual thingy. Maybe i should edit my post to include that, but the idea of money being involved is not something i'm comfortable with (yet? - i'm keeping my mind open for this discussion)

Sure, Im not directly affected, but feel bad for people needing to work for it.

Do you approve sex work? Why or why not?

I'm not against those who work for sex, but the idea to earn for a living doesn't seem nice. IMO, sex should be for 2 people (or more for others who prefer polyamory) who wants to be intimate/romantic with each other. My point is money should not be the purpose.

This is my weakness because i'm afraid to sound awkward or make mistakes which happens a lot

What's the best reason to vote for Trump?
I'm not from the US, so I'm curious why Americans still wants him back. I always see him as a bad mouthed guy and was worse when he lost in 2020. But feel free to change my mind. This question is also for non-trump supporters who can think of one thing (if you can) on why he's good for the top position.

Because it's subjective?
EDIT: example - abortion is evil for conservatives, but it is practically good for others

It could be a better way but not the "only way"
It should be Jesus who is the only way, boom !!!

Adding to this, the criticism is more valid if you understand more

What 11in laptop do you suggest?
I don't think lemmy has an equivalent /r/suggestalaptop community, but feel free to let me know if any.
I really like my acer Chromebook c720 because its easy to carry around and doesn't feel heavy when placed on my lap. Google no longer supports this model, so i turned it into a Linux machine via Arch Linux and Sway as the WM. This setup really fits my needs. However, it is underpowered with only 2G and old cpu. There is another model (4G + i3), but i cant find it anywhere in my area.
Is there a laptop you can suggest that has very similar dimensions, but higher specs (up to 8G ram if possible) and has good compatibility with Linux? I use my c720 for almost all stuff - watching movies, studying some web dev stuff, etc. but not gaming. I'm not really asking for any links on where to find them, but just a suggestion. Already tried 14-15in laptops, but i would still prefer around 11-12 (maybe because of small hands?).
