For your europe example, If it's related solely to someone's personality then it's not racism by definition. If it's claimed that it's based on personality, but the claim only appears in relation to people who look different in a particular way, then it's racism masquerading as something else.
Maybe the only real difference you're seeing is that Europeans are a lot more subtle than Americans (culturally).
Or, hear me out, you could have a minority government with multiple parties and independents, many of whom want to see coal phased out.
Right.. Have you considered that a basic order-of-magnitude estimate of scale of water, energy, and pressure requirements make the idea wildly infeasible in practice?
You realise we can vote for third parties here, right?
Concise, funny, and correct. Good work.
You could always regulate and ban toxics at the point of production or sale, before they get into the waste stream
You realise water boils at 100°C, right?
Edit: yes, I know it boils a different temperatures, but we're talking about 500°C for a practical use case at scale here..

Man, fuck wet wipes. They are such horrible pollution.
Take some toilet paper and some sanitiser instead.

Go in with low expectations, and you'll probably have a good time. Here's some to start with:
You'll be sore from walking. Sleeping might be uncomfortable or cold, or wet. Food will probably be crap, or hard to cook. Animals will freak you out in the middle of the night, or try to eat your food. You'll smell like smoke (unless it's a fire ban, then you'll be cold). Taking a dump in the bush is not comfortable, even after you get used to it.
It's type 2 fun though, so it'll be good in hindsight. Also you'll probably see a bunch of beautiful shit and maybe get to swim somewhere nice. Just gotta give it a go, and see if it's for you. Personally I love it.
Because that's what's mastodon groups are (e.g. the a.gup.pe). Mastodon doesn't have actual native groups, so bots-as-groups is a work around.
Mastodon doesn't fully federate with Lemmy, so while you can partially interact with Lemmy users and communities, you can't meaningfully partake in conversations here.
Wow, that looks insane. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williams_X-Jet
Reminds me of the flying vehicles from Nausicaa:
Hrm. Maybe that's a fair call, although the side-bar seems pretty focused on content, not how-to type stuff..
I'll try posting some some production related stuff and see how it goes.
A "making hip-hop" community?
Would anyone else be interested in a "making hip-hop" community?
Considering how small Lemmy still is, I reckon it would be best to include multiple aspects - music production, rapping, freestyling, turntablism/scratching, beatboxing. Could always split some of those out into separate communities later if needed.
I would see it as a complement to the !hiphopheads@sopuli.xyz community, but more focused on how to make, rather than sharing cool stuff others have made.
Would be cool if lemmy communities could just tag themselves, so a directory like this could be automatically generated.. Maybe even just hashtags in the sidebar or something.
Seems like if a theory doesn't allow for obvious-to-everyone complexity, then it's a pretty useless theory.
Words, usually.
New Mexico DJ Show
Does this have anything to do with the fediverse? If not, perhaps post it in a local community? !mexico@lemmy.world perhaps, or !djing@lemm.ee
I didn't feel this in Newie, did anyone else?
The mastodon is not a platform though, it's a protocol/standard and the software to run it. Individual mastodon services/platforms will come and go. I think if they become too much of a product (and enshittify), then people will leave, because they can without much pain.
If you could explain to your 19 year old self what you are doing with your life today, what would they say?
If you're not middle aged, pick a younger age, IDK
"Suggest a community" community?
I often come across ideas for new communities (sometimes I even have them myself), but I'm not always sure whether they would get traction.
How about a "suggest a community" community, where people can post suggestions, and get feedback on the idea, maybe tweak it a bit to be more useful, and also look for co-moderators?
It could act in parallel to !newcommunities@lemmy.world
Anyone have any ideas for how this could work better? Anyone want to co-moderate one?

What is the shittest beer in Australia?
I'm generally a fan of pretty shit beer (XXXX is my day-to-day). But even I have my limits.
Back in the day, it was clearly Tooheys Red Bitter, but I think these even Red is getting a run for it's money, e.g. from Byron Bay Premium Lager, which is something like James Boags but with all the soul sucked out through the nostrils. Obviously Foster's fucking sucks too, but I don't think you can even buy their lager in Australia, the only place I ever drank it was on a Singapore airlines flight out of the country, and once in Paris. Though I just realised that "light ice" was theirs too, and my Grandparents somehow always had one bottle of that in their fridge in the 90s, and it was shit too.
Anyway, there's about a million types of beer produced in australia these days, and heaps of them suck, but I want to know if Red has been knocked off it's podium for the worst beer ever.
Red drinkers: fite me.

Why didn't this deletion appear in the modlog?
This post was deleted from !asklemmy@lemmy.world in the last few hours: https://lemmy.world/post/26997415
I can tell, because I have this in my inbox:
(the Permanently Deleted bit still has the link to the URL).
The post title was "what's your favourite book" or something similar.
But there's nothing in the modlog that shows this. How come?
Easiest vim plugin management?
I would like to manage plugins in the lowest-touch way possible, and ideally one that's easy to migrate to other machines.
I like the idea of the internal plugin manager, but that generally means that I need to manually all the git repos on all machines. It also makes tracking plugins that I'm testing a bit annoying.
The alternative seems to be vundle or vim-plug, which do the git management, but don't use the internal plugin system.
Are there other options? What's the easiest these days?
Is it possible to be comfortable with two desktop OSs (e.g. shortcuts, mouse)
I've been a linux user for 20 years (mostly on KDE). I just started at a new job, and they gave me a mac. I found out later that I could have got a linux machine instead, which is a bit annoying. Still, I know there are some nice things about a mac, and I figured I'd give it a try for a while.
I'm pretty quick moving around my desktop environment, and I'm finding picking up the mac is not too bad. BUT I use keyboard shortcuts a lot, and they are all every different on a mac. So whenever I switch back and forth between my work machine, I end up stumbling a bunch and wasting my time, and getting annoyed. It's mostly keyboard shortcuts, but the trackpad buttons and scrolling are annoying too.
So, question is: is it possible to regularly use two OSs with wildly different control surfaces, and be comfortable with it? e.g. either MacOS + Linux, or I guess MacOS + Windows? Or will it be annoying forever?
When reading (or listening), what kind of imagery hits you the hardest?
When you're reading or listening to verbal material ( e.g. fiction, nonfiction, prose, poetry, lyrics, etc.), what kind of imagery has the most impact?
Imagery in the broad sense (including all senses, not just sight).
"Kind" can be whatever categorisation you can think of, e.g. genre, sense, place, scale, human/non-human, etc.
