I spy with my little eye someone who'd die early, in a world without antibiotics. Some contaminations can't be washed or cooked away (Staphylococcus aureus, some Clostridiums...). And there are a lot of ways to mess up and contami

Maybe my pun about meet/meat confused you but the problem definitely isn't limited to meat production. You should see the quantites of pesticides/fertilisers/treatment agents used in the extensive culture of plants. The

I entirely agree on your opinion of the antibiotic situation regarding large scale farming. The problem is that we could not substitute another method to produce enough food to me(e|a)t demand. If we want to keep eating we must have safe f

That's not necessarily true, if you're the Sheikh and you own the power plants. You may have more money but you're still the only provider in town, and have fun cashing in energy when demand hits an external spike already.

I'd love to hear from negative consequences directly attributable to homeopathy and not caused by the state of mind of those seeking it exclusively.

Given the amount of generalised irrationnality I don't think that qualifies as an equality function when observing human behaviour. One leads mostly to a lighter wallet (people with access to homeopathy are not particularily underexpos

Surely you understand the difference between middle class people taking some sugar and people believing unwaveringly that herbs will protect them from that shotgun.

It's astounding so many people defend variants of 'power to the mighty'. Are you so naive you believe you are one of the mighty?

There exist tools outside of your apparent zone of comfort that let us do whatever we damn please from the command line. I think you'd be surprised how much user facing code was written using Emacs/Vim.

I followed a similar path. I love Arch but in terms of reliability I don't trust that I'll have a workable system at an arbitrary time. Manjaro is a good compromise between Arch and Ubuntu goals I believe: it works with a well rou
