As a dane, this explains a lot with all the weird stuff you hear about the US these days.

People think consensually drinking your partner’s breast milk is wrong

Wait, they do? Why? What could possibly be wrong with that?

The idea of a consent waiver for post death sex is... A strange, uncomfortable thought. At the same time, I cannot really see any moral problem with that, per se. It's kind of in the same category of being in a relationship with a sibling with no intention of getting children. Strange, slightly uncomfortable to consider, but hard to see any actual moral problem with it.

Have these people actually ever compared the anonymous internet with the named internet? Facebook is flooded with bigots and idiots that readily spout racist and hateful words, with their full name in plain sight. Meanwhile, anonymous places like Reddit are far better moderated (yes, I know we hate on reddit here but it is much better moderated than Facebook). Same applies to most of the fediverse.

I suspect these people haven't actually used these anonymous places on the internet much. I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Because any normal person would want it upper cased. Most people never type these folder names.

Yes, Linux should appeal to the masses, otherwise we will never get rid of Windows. No, this doesn't apply to anyone on Lemmy cause nobody on Lemmy right now truly qualify as "normal person", statistically speaking.

Space is pretty big and accidental collisions like that are quite unlikely actually. But of course space debris is a real problem, just not quite in the way you describe I think.

Pretty sure it would do absolutely nothing to the atmosphere

That has nothing to do with it. This only affects long exposure photography, you would never notice this with your naked eye.

Also that bz4x or whatever deserves a spot on the worst cars of all time list, just straight up ewaste.

What makes you say that? I don't really know much about cars, why is that one particularly bad?

Interesting analogy. The future is hard to predict. Hopefully things turn out better than this prediction.

Interesting, chat about what? I'm in Denmark and it's rare that anyone says anything to someone they don't know in a shop, unless it's the customary "hi" to the cashier. Where are you where this is more normal?

in checkout lines

I dunno, is this a good venue? People are there to shop, not to socialise. Most people will likely want to get on with their business and get back home.

Would this mean it’s a bad idea to give kids sunglasses?

Well if that is actually the causing effect, yes. I checked the paper and they do actually mention light brightness as a potential cause, as well as the other things but they have nothing on what actually causes the problem for real.

But I mean, clearly we aren't naturally meant to need sunglasses so in a way I'd say yea, don't give your kids sunglasses.

A third idea is that sunlight is much, much brighter than most indoor artificial light, and the lack of this very bright light causes some sort of problem for the developing eye. Maybe the brightness of the sun is a sort of "calibration" method for the eye and when it doesn't get that really bright sunlight, the development of the eye goes out of whack.

So is it vitamin D, or far-away views or bright sunlight? I've heard all these theories before but I'm not sure which is it. Does the meta analysis say anything about which effect is most likely the cause? I mean could we "fix" this by going outside to view things far away, or should we just take vitamin D supplements, or should we have much brighter indoor lighting? I'd love to know.

I'm... Very confused. Why does this guy think he can affect something about the Hagia Sophia in Turkey?

I don't get it, why are they worried about people making firearms using a 3D printer? I might be wrong, but isn't it fairly easy to acquire a real firearm in the US? So why would anyone use a 3D printed one?

15 was minimum for me too (I'm in Denmark) a few days ago, but now it's 0. They're probably rolling out gradually, just check again in a few days and make sure the app is updated.

I had 15 mins at the lowest setting a few days ago too. Now it's 0. I think it's rolling out gradually, just check it again in a week or so.

I didn't see one either - I'm in Denmark, maybe it's rolling out in different regions?

Keep in mind this book is really long - I believe it's something to do with authors being paid by the page in the US? But anyways, it's very detailed but that may not be a bad thing. I don't have any other suggestions.
