Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How can I bring my Atheist sister back to Islam?
2·1 day agoFreedom of speech does not imply freedom for people to like what you say.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I am on mint MATE will installing this software make my computer gnomed
5·2 days agoIn that case, no. Like the other responder said, those are just some dependency packages.
Lots of software uses packages made by Gnome. These are simply dependencies for other software you’re installing.

actionjbone@sh.itjust.workstoShitty Ask Lemmy@lemmy.ml•How long until ACI? (Artificial CHIM Intelligence)
2·3 days agoConsidering this is “Shitty Ask Lemmy,” I’d say we do, except a bad one.
Something like “capable of tying one’s shoes, though not necessarily particularly well.”
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

2·3 days agoDo we even know what intelligence is? Until we can answer that, I don’t know if we can achieve it.
And nothing of value was lost.
It’s hard to find a single article that covers everything, but this might be a good place to start: https://www.allenedmonds.com/the-journal/made-here/process?icid=BottomNav_Our_Process
Allen Edmonds is one of the last big companies to manufacture traditional men’s shoes in the U.S.
Their quality isn’t as good as it used to be, but they still follow many of the same processes. That page will give you some of the basics on how they are made.
Welted shoes are designed to have their soles replaced. Allen Edmonds does make sneaker like shoes that can be resoled, but they aren’t really “buy it for life” like a welted shoe.
https://vcleat.com/ has lots of articles about older brands and high-quality shoes. Might not be the style you’re going for, but some of the information should still be good.
I mentioned used because eBay and thrift stores can be good sources for high quality shoes, if you know what you’re looking for - and if you don’t go in with expectations. Usually, I leave a thrift shop empty-handed. But I’ve also thrifted some real gems that are either in great shape, or just need some cleanup.

Anniversaries: X years ago today@sopuli.xyz•200 years ago today, Matilda Joslyn Gage, an American writer and activist, was born. She is mainly known for her contributions to women's suffrage in the United States.English
1·4 days agoWas that before or after the railroad spike was driven through her brain?
Dr. Martens don’t last a lifetime anymore. They’ve become absolute garbage.
So, sneakers aren’t repairable. There are plenty of shoes that offer great support, but if you’re looking for a sneaker look, you’re probably going to be stuck with disposable shoes.
Similar for vegan. Vegan leather-like shoes are made of plastic or canvas, and they will wear through/crack.
Leather is one of the most sustainable shoe materials. I own, and I regularly wear, shoes that are older than I am. The leather needs conditioning and care, but it does not disintegrate the way vegan shoes do.
Leather wears in. Plastic wears out.
If you’re interested in learning more, I can share more info about shoe construction and what to look for.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•is it true that "cisphobia"/"heterophobia" is just as bad as LGBTQ+phobia?
92·5 days agoIt’s bullshit invented by old white people. It’s not an actual thing that’s a problem.
actionjbone@sh.itjust.workstoShitty Ask Lemmy@lemmy.ml•What demandment needs to be added to the constitution?
2·5 days agoRight for bears to have arms
I collect and restore shoes.
Do you wear men’s shoes, or women’s? I may be able to recommend brands that are durable over time, and that can be repaired rather than thrown away.
Also, if you don’t mind used shoes, you can save a ton of money.
If whales are fish, then so are coelacanths.

Computer RPG Games@lemmy.world•"The majority of this building is working on The Elder Scrolls 6": Todd Howard says Bethesda's full focus is on the RPG it announced in 2018, and "it's so different than Starfield, so different than FEnglish
2·8 days agoThe problem wasn’t that they didn’t announce Diablo 4.
The problem was that nobody wanted Diablo Immortal.
