It's a fast food chain I think

Might be app issue? I use Thunder and didn't notice anything like this.

Alternatively: too late for who?

Especially since password managers are a thing.

Great whataboutism. I assume you mean roadkill? That makes one relatively small chance of directly affecting (not necessarily killing) one animal in wider area. One firework has pretty much guaranteed chance of affecting all animals in wide area.

The utility of the firework is also zero compared to a vehicle. In a vehicle you have a chancenof affecting the outcome of potential collision. You can drive more safely when the chance of encountering animals is higher.

And about the nearly 0 chance of death - I don'tbhave statistics but have some examples of pets dying due to shock. There was this village where fireworks got banned because every year a couple of horses died on New Years. A couple of years back there was really eye opening picture (I think from Rome) where a whole square was littered by dead pigeons morning after New Years.

And less not forgey the stress and suffering caused to countless others that don't die. Discounting them is like saying tortuting is ok because people usually survive it.

And if you don't care about animals, think about the PTSD of war veterans or other people living through war. Plus the polution and smoke is not good for the health, not mentioning the lost fingers that strain health care for that day.

Is a few pretty explosions really worth others suffering (especially when there are now ways to have light shows without or with considerably less negative effects)?

Yep. With wild animals it may result in the running away in fear without thought and get lost or injured which may result in their death. This technically applies to all animals.

Another aspect which affects all is heart attack from the shock.

Not just dogs or other pets, but also farm and wild animals. And it may not only lead to suffering, but also lead to their deaths.

From what I read it's being released to users gradually I think?

This is great, one thing I was trully missing on there

[–] illi@lemm.ee 6 points 4 months ago

And is actively happening. Sadly, most people will choose comfortable lies over hard truths.

Thanks for the in depth answer! While most of it is lost on me, but the last paragraf is dumbed down just enough to make sense of things.

Thanks. For a second it sounded like there are different "types" of linux that are fundamentally different, but it's just endless chain on what specific OS is based on which specific different OS and some of them are used as a reference point for how stuff feels - I think? :D

What are the differences between Fedora and Debian, since those were used as major reference points?
