No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't police use rubber bullets instead of live rounds? I get if someone is holding a loaded weapon. But wouldn't a rubber bullet have the same effect with out putting holes in another person?
33·4 months agoNot all but a significant percentage of cops became cops for one reason: to be allowed to legally kill people.

My main use case for a desktop machine is cad. I come from an analog graphics background (I’m old). The whole arrangement of tech for graphics is inhuman and apparently designed to torture artists ;) Humans evolved over millions of years to have a finely tuned hand to eye coordination- that is your hands are directly within your field of view while you are using them. The brain requires this and forcing the hands out of view to operate a mouse limits the brain’s ability to function. Humans evolved as bipeds to stand, walk and move from a vertical position. Sitting unmoving in a chair for a significant portion of the day is damaging to the skeletomuscular and nervous systems. Compressing the human scale of motion onto a screen of less than or just barely within (in the very best case) the size of the human field of view limits the amount of motion the head, neck and spine get during the day. Over time this leads to more damage.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month).
3·1 year agoI just turned 60. To me you look like a very young woman. Make sure to enjoy your life. Tell your loved ones that you love them. Don’t do stupid things that will harm you later, because even though it may look like later will never come, it will.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Potential downsides of buying a brand new soft-unlocked (carrier-unlocked) phone?
18·1 year agoFor me the advantage of buying an unlocked phone from the phone manufacturer is avoiding the bloatware from the carrier.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are shrunken heads a rights violation?
81·2 years agoThis is a very modern attitude regarding human rights- like only a couple of hundred years modern, and still not universally applied. I don’t know but I suspect that there are not too many shrunken heads made lately.
For a bit of a look at some previous attitudes, I can recommend Dan Carlin’s Hardcore history podcast.
Anyone operating at that level of morality wants nothing to do with humanity. It’s not that there aren’t any, it’s that you’ll never hear of them.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can it be within human nature to be inhumane? Conversely can it be "unhuman" or going against human nature to be genuinely humane?
8·2 years agoThe Range of human nature is equal to the range of human imagination. Anything you as an individual human can imagine is well within the range.
