Uplifting News@lemmy.world•Record Low Crime Rates Are Real, Not Just Reporting Bias Or Improved Medical CareEnglish
9·1 month agoChoosing Gen AI is such a bad choice for this article. To me it screams “low effort, ad-filled sensationalist news site that barely counts as one”.

Generally, people who eat animal products several time per say don’t need to supplement with B12. But I remember reading that elders absorb it not as well and can’t rely even on animal products, and may need to supplement.
Yes, fortified nutritional yeast is a source too. One should make sure their nutritional yeast is fortified berfore relying on it for B12. If it’s not fortified with B12, it doesn’t contain any.
Fortified nutritional yeast needs to be kept in a dark place, preferably refrigerated.
I use it in pesto in place of cheese and everyone, omnivores included, love it.
Protein: legumes (beans, lentils, peanuts, chickpeas, tofu and other solid soy products)
Calcium: fortified plant milks (convenient) or cruciferous leaves and flowers (healthy) such as collards, kale, or broccoli. Tofu is a good source too. Avoid excessive intakes of salt.
Iron: eat vitamin-C rich food with your meals, such as bell peppers, lemon/lime juice on your food, or drink orange juice.
B-12: you must supplement, either with gummies, fortified plant milk or processed vegan products (vegan sausages, vegan “turkey” slices, etc.)
A vitamin: carrots, cruciferous leaves and flowers (see calcium), squash, cantaloup. Eat with fatty food for better absorption. Eg. Minestrone soup (kale and olive oil)
Omega-3 : tofu is a good source. Flaxseed oil has enough in a teaspoon – it works well on salads. Some nuts are a good source too.

I don’t consider them as worse than Nazi Germany, but I consider them as pretty bad.
The massacres and famines in India comes to mind.
The wars in China to keep selling them opium.
And the fact that Nazi Germany had to hide the genocide from the general population, but when a Britiah military officer massacred civilians, they were bailed and cheered on by the general population is a nuance to the idea that the British Empire was better in every regard.

Netflix did encounter issues. I couldn’t access it yesterday at noon EST. And I wasn’t alone, judging by Downdetector.ca
I like it. I like the aesthetic, and I like how it can fit the sound well.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Metal on the inside, business on the outside
2·5 months agoFor me:
Power metal or speed metal to start the day or complete a task really quickly
Death metal or epic heavy metal to push myself through tasks
Black metal to go through the day on a sustainable pace
Death-doom when I’m going through a lot of very small, context-shifting tasks for a long time and it’s driving me crazy
Atmospheric black metal or dungeon synth to focus on a complex problem, and also when I’m on latter part of the day and really tired.
Death-thrash to wake myself up when I’m sleepy.
How do I tell the difference when at the grocery store? I was thinking of buying one to eat it — I now realize I might have been about to make a mistake.

Uplifting News@lemmy.world•Poll: Capitalism is out … and socialism is inEnglish
1·6 months agoThe cap needsto be way, way lower. You don’t need to to have more money than a government to buy a politician or buy media. And I think that small steps is all it takes for a class of the society to progressively take more and more power as they work to influence people and remove regulation.

Uplifting News@lemmy.world•Poll: Capitalism is out … and socialism is inEnglish
2·6 months agoI know that it doesn’t answer your original question (the thing about countries doing better than another country - I personally didn’t any claim here), but I’d like to answer that one question.
North Korea is an authoritarian state with a planned economy with a highly unequal society, in part based on slavery. Its official ideology is juche. Supernatural phenomena is attributed to their leaders. It is in many parts similar to kingdoms of old.
Its miserable state could be taken as an indication of the failing of socialism, as socialism is also based on a planned economy.
There’s a few nuances though.
First, socialism means that workers own the means of production. I’m not aware of any democracy, even local, in North Korea. Authoritarian states are famously wasteful and inefficient. Perhaps one should look to socialist states where democracy and rule of law were in effect for a real indication.
I’m not aware of workers having control of the means of production in any notable auto-ptoclaimed socialist states, apart from USSR for a very short period of time. It seems like socialist revolutions ending in authoritarianism and centralization is a common story, almost inevitable.
Second, there’s some remarkable successes even in those authoritarian planned economy states. Cuba has spend extremly little in healthcare and manages to give its population a good life expectency. There were also good social indicators under USSR, and which went down under capitalist Russia.
Third, North Korea spends an enormous amount on the military. No country not in an active war in the world spends as much as North Korea does on its military as a percentage of its GDP. It’s around 20-25% if I remember correctly.
Anyway, just wanted to chime on this.

1·6 months agoI don’t know, that seems very similar to agnostic atheism to me. Is there any situation where you would act differently if you’d consider yourself agnostic atheist instead of apathetic agnostic?

3·6 months agoWords like “atheism” or “agnostic” make sense as shorthands for everyday conversations or labelling, but if you want to be rigorous about it, it makes more sense to use 4 categories:
-
Gnostic theist: I know there’s a God, I’ve met Him, I feel it, I have faith, etc.
-
Agnostic theist: I don’t know if there’s a god or not, but I prefer to believe there’s one
-
Agnostic atheist: if we don’t know if there’s a god or not, there’s no reason to believe there’s one. Do you assume there’s an invisible giant teapot orbiting Earth because there’s no proof to the contrary?
-
Gnostic atheist: a god can’t possibly exist, the concept of a god is illogical, etc.
I’m agnostic atheist, but maybe there could a firm reasoning for the gnostic atheist position. I don’t know, I would have to read and think about it more.

Making a link between innovation on the internet and yaoi being a new word to someone seems to convey that the word must have appeared a few years ago. Being at least as old as the early 2010s, and probably much older, I didn’t check, makes it a long time ago by comparison.
