Comment on The queerness argument against moral realism in ~humanities
Staross Link ParentI usually listen to those while I'm cooking, I find Kane to be super clear while still being rigorous, although he's quite dry and some of his videos are maybe more his personal opinions.I usually listen to those while I'm cooking, I find Kane to be super clear while still being rigorous, although he's quite dry and some of his videos are maybe more his personal opinions.

Staross LinkA nice video by Kane Baker on an influential argument against moral realism. The idea is that if there's true moral properties out there in the world, that's kinda weird.A nice video by Kane Baker on an influential argument against moral realism.

Staross Link ParentI do something very similar, for the paste they should have it in most stores but it can get quite confusing with all these paste & sauces.I do something very similar, for the paste they should have it in most stores but it can get quite confusing with all these paste & sauces.

I also did the short ribs from fallows, really good and not too hard, although I prepare the meat before serving because it's hard to eat in the place (lots of bones/sinew/fat) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0n2OHlBPcQ

For the upgrade path, as I understand I could upgrade to windows 11 or windows 11 LTSC, bypassing the requirements if needed, but once you transition to Win10 IoT LTSC that not the case anymore. Although it might be possible to use the same registry tricks to go back to 10 and then 11, not sure.

Staross Link ParentI'm tempted to do this, but I've read you could run into compatibility issues and that it's a bit of a dead end upgrade wise (I guess fresh install in 2032 wouldn't be too bad...).I'm tempted to do this, but I've read you could run into compatibility issues and that it's a bit of a dead end upgrade wise (I guess fresh install in 2032 wouldn't be too bad...).

Comment on Cycling is revolutionising transport in ~transport
Staross LinkThe fleet of ebikes have been significantly increased where I live (upgraded from regular bikes) and they are super fun to ride & practical. It's cheaper than taking the metro and often faster....The fleet of ebikes have been significantly increased where I live (upgraded from regular bikes) and they are super fun to ride & practical. It's cheaper than taking the metro and often faster. I'm not comfortable riding outside of dedicated bike lanes though and the coverage it still not perfect. I'm also a bit concerned about security, there's bad drivers and I might even be one... (I don't drive so I have no idea what I'm doing in complicated situations, but I'm generally careful).
There's also some talks of providing small "no-permit" electric cars on a similar model, that would be a final blow for car-centric cities imo.

Comment on Why the internet really wants your ID... (and why now?) in ~tech
Staross Link ParentExactly, ideally the ID system would also use tokens with limited life time so stolen accounts wouldn't be a huge issue.Exactly, ideally the ID system would also use tokens with limited life time so stolen accounts wouldn't be a huge issue.
Taking a slightly different view on this : if we want to live in a neo-liberal capitalist society, don't we want a single unified marketplace ? Isn't that the basic foundation that enables competition between actors, an open market where you can compare prices and quality ? It seems liberals should be up in arms about it.
In practice you could have e.g. a public marketplace for the EU (maybe one for goods, one for food, one for services, one for culture), anything you want to sell/give public access needs to be registered and available there. Alternative marketplace could still be available if you want to provide customized experiences.
