True. But for a start don't pay for dog fights and switch to oat milk, gets you 99% there ;)

Haha what. So it's okay to have dog fights since the dogs wouldn't be born otherwise? That's such a weird argument

"I'd switch in a heartbeat if vegan food is cheaper, healthier and as tasty or tastier"
duhhh you'd be stupid not to at that point. Until we get there the consumer needs to signal big corporations that demand exists and McDonald's adding plant based options is a huge step. Every burger sold will contribute to encourage more companies to offer vegan options, even cheese

Yeah, a lot of claims with 0 sources doesn’t inspire confidence. So milk was never shown to be unhealthy, fat+cholesterol isn’t harmful but oat milk is terrible for you. Gotcha

Well a company offers a food you’re not forced to eat and that was enough for you to state your discomfort of people simply showing you the result of your actions. Not much more to say really

Australia is burning. Animal is not only reason for climate change and species extinction but one of the big ones that we need to eliminate if we want to have a chance at stopping this madness. I'd stand up for the future of my children and grand children, so why do you value your taste pleasure more?

Sure. But that's a very weak excuse if it's one at all. I sometimes jaywalk, does this justify me mudering someone? I mean I can't be perfect right so why even try?

It takes mental effort. Imagine your coworker asks you which version of your app is running on staging and if the latest modification runs without throwing an error. Sure, alt-tab to your terminal and 5 commands later you’re in your app‘s repl to answer that but by then you had to switch your context. Opening your custom helm search for your servers which then displays a new window with your docker instances on staging plus pressing enter to dial into a repl session there is not only convenient, it reduces mental effort

My killer feature is when you want to streamline your workflow. Adding a new test runner on VSCode for your favourite language? Possible but takes a lot of effort to get right. Adding one in emacs? I can inspect the source code or my language bindings and add/change the command it’s running. In a few dozen lines of elisp I can add shortcuts to all my daily tasks and even combine them. Search for an error message I get in my tests on Honeybadger? Check. Run code snippets in org mode against my local machine and export the whole document as PDF or markdown to our wiki? Saves me a few minutes here and there

What cows eat? Ah you mean soy. Nah we can’t use that. Would be a shame if the cow used 10x the amount of calories to grow before we eat it when we could eat the crops instead and make your comment look uninformed

Yeah, this sounds like typical carnist propaganda. Meat has some magical ingredient needed for health that no one can name? Almost all peer-reviewed studies show that vegans (diet done properly) are the only group within healthy range for almost all markers; most meat eaters are deficient in B12 etc etc. It is strikingly similar to smoking: educating the public takes a very long time, laws are always behind and good news about your bad habits become industry-funded public "knowledge". Maybe we will have figured out how not to kill ourselves by the time we colonize mars
