@Philsturgeon
the wind turbine part contains some things i'd strongly disagree on, on other i agree.

wind turbines are not normal "buildings". birds do collide with windows, yes. they don't collide with lamp posts or broadcast towers. those structures don't move at high rotational speeds not found in nature.

people shooting random birds is a completely different thing. it's not a side effect but shit problem handling - just because other people mistreat their kids i don't have to and it doesn't make it ok if i do.

cats are a giant problem, that's why i deal with mice problems with traps instead of getting a cat.

i have no solid numbers for cars. i hit one pidgeon in 20 years of driving.

reinforcing concrete with turbine blades doubles the problem instead of solving it. concrete reinforced with steel is harmless, concrete mixed with epoxy is just increading the volume of problematic waste. i again don't care if this is already practiced with other waste. wind turbines are effective microplastic generators in their operative life and beyond.

i absolutely have to get better at ignoring the news.

true for literally everything including fitness, health, finance, education, etc etc. stop defeating yourselves!

@Philsturgeon i would love if greens would act in an ecological way but they choose to do things like putting wind turbines everywhere, including important bird habitats, to save 0.1% of global CO2 emissions.

@arrrg @Philsturgeon yet in west germany environmental protection was much better than in gdr.

@graf @phnt @Paultron @mrsaturday @sun Efficiency is a white-supremacist construct, sir. Your biases are problematic.

@Czerion danke, dir auch! :)

@DCR very well written.

i know some of my late relatives would just be sincerely sad about this. not even angry, but sad someone does this. sometimes their faith was the only thing mentally helping them and now it's mocked. it's repulsive.

i'm pissed that seemingly every cultural heritage is protected from shit like this but the european heritage. be it last supper or feast of the gods. it can be mocked and insulted and twisted into bizarre things and if someone dares to criticize it he's evil, against "progress" and should be happy to not be canceled and debanked.

the same kind of assholes are painting stongehenge for their shit political ideology.

those people have no respect for what my ancestors, remote and close, did and which values they had but at the same time want to be respected and have pride. if you base culture on mockery of the existing instead of newly created beauty it will not end well.

it pisses me off and it's morally repulsive.

@bonifartius

The tableau was arranged like The Last Supper by Da Vinci, period.

I'm not baptized and I'm not religious.

What bothers me is that Jesus embodies certain values, and I find it creepy that he and these values have been replaced by a extremely made-up (= fake) obese person in tasteless clothes.

The obese people I know don't think their fat is great. They suffer from health issues and a poor quality of life.

↓ 1/3

so the olympic stuff wasn't supposed to be "last supper" but obviously "feast if the gods" and so was PERFECTLY FINE because it was something from history. don't make a fuss!

i suppose the same rules are applying for mocking other things from history as well.

На Земле под действием гравитации нагретый воздух поднимается и расширяется, и огонь приобретает форму капли. В условиях микрогравитации на МКС огонь имеет форму шара. Сгорающее вещество встречает молекулы кислорода, свободно перемещаясь во всех направлениях, создает сферическое пламя.

Голубой цвет обусловлен образованием небольшого количества сажи, которая при низкой температуре светится только в инфракрасном диапазоне.

@sun i think they buy microsoft to have someone to sue in case of these fuckups. nobody cares for 5000 lost flights if the 500 million loss is paid by someone.

@vriska @sun yes, but now if you ask to be left out of culture war arguments your project is explicitly targeted for that and accused of carrying water for nazis. (t. ladybird)

constantly treating people like shit begets a similar and opposing reaction
