You’re asking this in a community that’s specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.

and i figured you’d read what i actually wrote instead of arguing with someone who didn’t exist
Yes, I know all that. The argument I was replying to was that you run out of trees if you use them to make paper without recycling. That argument is false. You’re arguing with points I didn’t make.
No, this isn’t solved by having a whole forest available when you scale up the consumer side too.
You’re seriously underestimating how many trees there are. The only reason we’re losing forest is because of grazing land. That’s clearcutting, where you remove the tree and just destroy it or just burn the whole forest. As a vegetarian I’m obviously not here to defend grazing land, but if you look only at wood and paper production, we absolutely can replace the trees we use with enough time for them to regrow completely.
Doing so devastates ecosystems by turning them into monocultures, but you’re only talking about the replacement rate of trees. We don’t have to worry about the replacement rate of trees, we have to worry about greed for land and environmental impact.
I think it’s very much like regular ice cream, but a flavor an octopus would eat.
Crab, maybe.
If your children would just adopt a can-do attitude while they’re mining, they’d be getting promotions
Movie studios: “This is definitely the most important thing we have to deal with right now”
This doesn’t really make sense. Try it the other way: “It’s a shame we don’t sleep 23 hours a day, then we’d only have to work for a few minutes.”
I know you mean like drinking and dancing, but in my head I’m like “yeah my chess club DESERVES a nice building”
My headphones’ bluetooth receiver is on the right. Bluetooth performs very poorly at passing through the tissue of a human body (I think it has to do with all the water in there), so when I wear my headphones (always), my phone goes in right front pocket to minimize the path of the signal through my body.
(BTW, you should actually try this if your bluetooth devices suck. Position the transmitter and receiver so they don’t go through your body. I promise you it improves things a LOT.)
Quite–that’s why active is a better metric. And as others have stated, metrics maybe don’t even matter; or they misrepresent.
My point was only for those who want to know the fate it Lemmy as it compares to Reddit: Reddit doesn’t care right now. They’re not going to feel the pain of the bleed for quite a while yet
That’s pretty cool.
I’m truly not being a negative nancy but the last time I checked reddit had 400M user accounts. We should be comparing active user numbers, but either way, this is a drop in the bucket and reddit rightly does not consider Lemmy a threat to its supremacy at this point.
We’re doing great though! Good trajectory.
OK, as long as all the well-meaning people stop discussing it, nobody will ever find out about it.
Son, this is not it.
lol
