  • You can break that view of themselves through community efforts - like gardens, allotments, etc

    That’s precisely what the second page mentions, as well as information on how to find a local Food Not Bombs chapter. These topics are also discussed often on Slrpnk.net, which I encourage readers to take a look at and join, in the hopes of exposing them to more in-depth discussion of those topics and people who they can talk to about it.

    The people who are already open to unions are already in them.

    Again, in my personal experience in my area, I have met an astonishing amount of people who genuinely have no concept of what a union or general strike are, so for them, the lack of knowledge is most certainly a big barrier.


  • Ah, I realize now that, at least on voyager, cross posts don’t seem to show the post body contents.

    If you click through, you’ll be able to see the second page (that is supposed to be on the reverse side) that briefly covers community building as well.

    I have the general strike as step two since it made sense to explain what it is immediately after mentioning it, and how it goes hand in hand with unionizing.

    At least in my area both unions and a general strike are completely unknown concepts to most people I mention it to, so I wanted it to be clear what they are, though I wrote it while fairly sleep deprived, so I’m sure it could’ve been done better.

    Ultimately this flyer is intended to just get people started down a good path. I could only fit so much without it likely becoming overwhelming and not read, and still fitting on a double sided page.

    If you know of a pamphlet that would guide people on these topics better than this one, I would welcome changing mine out for that.

    Have you tried the alternatives lately? Impossible meat is indistinguishable from the real thing, and Quorn combined with some marmite or chicken flavoring is an excellent affordable alternative to beef and chicken.

    Plant milks are pretty damn good, vegan cheese is getting close.

    The others I’m a little surprised make you happier than alternatives. Plant fibers are the bomb for clothes, gas production is… Not something I associate with happiness. Mushroom leather is looking very promising as a replacement for animal leather.

    Plant oils are easily as good as animal fats.













  • At least in China, the losses have been negated by recent technology that allows higher voltages than previously feasible, bringing the losses down to 2.6% per 500 miles.

    I’m not against any existing nuclear power continuing to exist, it would be foolish to shut any down at this point. I’m also not entirely against new construction depending on who’s doing it and where (France seems capable of getting them online fairly quickly, while the US seems incredibly bad at keeping on time and on budget).

    I just think overall, due to how solar can scale up and down, it’s overall the most promising solution, as individuals can collectively take action now, instead of waiting for a nuclear power plant to maybe get built in time to help with the climate.







  • Just to narrow it down further, were you getting bad performance on Linux Mint too, or did you only install games on Kubuntu?

    Another user mentioned that the power settings can have a huge effect, which also seems like a good lead to look into. You should be able to check it by opening your settings panel and going to the Power Management section. In there should be a Power Profile setting. If it’s set to power save mode, it’ll limit your performance quite a bit.
