A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.
This isn't about immediately filtered content, like the disgusting DuffMan George Floyd meme, or Holocaust denial. That's pretty well kept in check by mod tools. I'm also not talking about cogent or even pointed political discussion....
It's only a personal anecdote but I've heard of places such as Dubai where antibiotics are available without prescription and there is no advice/reminder to finish the course, so people stop when they feel better leading to higher chances of antibiotic-resistant strains surviving.
Not much we can do to stop that behaviour, but remember to finish your antibiotics if you are prescribed them.

Didn't own the company just the sole British distribution rights
edit to add: He lived on the south coast, used and enjoyed the product, and was moving out of the way for a pedestrian on a narrow path and went backwards over the cliff edge. A tragedy that doesn't belong in this thread.
A 2020 Cochrane review that assessed the two clinical trials concluded that "whether adults see their dentist for a check‐up every six months or at personalized intervals based on their dentist's assessment of their risk of dental disease does not affect tooth decay, gum disease, or quality of life.

One person equating their personal experience to everyone. Clearly not realising that within the next 24 hrs the guys will get back, see the results and dump at least 1/5th of their unfaithful partners.
You do it by organising and provoking change via the fediverse. There comes the balance where (negatively spun) news media reports of its existence drive curiosity to main stream audience searching it out.
So honestly, in your opinion, one of the only ways a vegan can change people's minds is to take them shopping and PAY for their food for them.
Amazing, this is a new level of shitty push the blame away behaviour. Pathetic.
They would drive animals off cliffs. That would cause horror if they were to repeat it today yes.
Just stop eating living animals it's that simple, but if you want to eat bugs, knock yourself out.
I think we'll find "plagues" of species more common and end up harvesting as many as possible then so that "locust" is the primary protein source for that year.
Sabotage, lol, keep on coming up with excuses. Pretend it's not you who's the shitty person. I started my movement when I was a child and didn't even know the word vegan. For a lot of people vegan is a personal thing and the fact there's a community is a bonus, but you wouldn't understand.

There is no flex in the cables, they are under tension. The material inbetween holding the plants? I'd make that rigid too, even if designed to look like fabric but I can't specifically see soil so these could be hydroponic rockwool (much lighter) watered by an autosystem or a chap with a portable water bowser. Could use fabric then and let excess water drip through for ten mins once a day.
So you agree that the meat industry is extremist and needs to be stopped. They employ children and destroy their employees with ptsd along with all the animal cruelty?
It's almost like you are completely one sided in your beliefs. If only there was a word for that.
As for their actions, you know how you feel about people who kick puppies and torture cats. That's how vegans feel about your actions. That's how low they do think of you.
Have you got any weird questions FROM the opposite gender?
