Word meaning depends on usage. People call it “oat milk”, so it’s oat milk.

I live in Bavaria. There are multiple politicians who don’t get tired to performatively eat sausages and try to make laws that mandate calling oat milk “oat drink” and vegan burgers/schnitzel/… anything else. As if anyone would ever get confused by that. There’s a common joke that they should rename “scouring milk” to “scouring drink” otherwise people get confused!!!
Regarding your last paragraph: that’s unrelated. There are also lots of insufferably vocal meat eaters who feel personally attacked when someone else doesn’t religiously stuff themselves with meat every meal.

Technology@lemmy.world•Valve Sued By The Performing Rights Society Over Music Rights in Games Valve Doesn’t Make or OwnEnglish
211·1 day agoI’ve seen a lot of stupid patent and copyright trolling over the years.
I bet 100€ that they’re trying to double dip and get valve to also pay for licensing songs that the individual game publishers already licensed.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My employer likes vibe-coding. What do I do?
21·1 day agoExactly, but if you review it, it’s no longer vibe-coding. At least as far as I know, vibe-coding means specifically to not look at the code at all.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My employer likes vibe-coding. What do I do?
4·1 day agoYeah, you’ll soon see the boundaries of what it’s useful for and will then be able to make informed decisions.
Vibe-coding UI for a one-off questionnaire? Why not. Vibe-coding something you need to maintain? Oof.

2·2 days agoDeath it is, CSV is horrible effectively unstandardized trash that has led to uncountable hours of efforts wasted due to subtly corrupted data through incompatible serialization settings.
It actively makes the world a worse place by existing.
On MacOS:
Opt+Shift+-En dash is the same without the shift
I’ve been using them for a long time, as they are also used in German typography like em dashes in English typography – only surrounded by spaces. They are easy to type on a Linux or MacOS keyboards layout (E.g.
Opt+-)
I refuse to stop using en dashes. I’ve been using them because they are good typography, and the fact that clankers got clued in to that doesn’t make it wrong.
One of the best books I’ve ever read. Central thesis is absolutely mind-blowing, it’ll unfold in your mind like a horrible realization. 10/10 would get existential dread from again
You’d think, apparently it was a historian. Looks like like in the last centuries, governments would rather build infrastructure for wars than for rational reasons, but that infrastructure ended up being used for good things too.
Would be great if we could get rid of the ghouls and just build roads without needing them for war instead.
Yeah it thinks it’s counterpropaganda, but it’s just propaganda.
I agree with it of course: we shouldn’t need war to build roads today. No matter if this is how it went in the last few centuries, we should do better.

politics @lemmy.world•DOJ admits 47,635 Epstein files — including Trump allegations — were removed
22·6 days agoOK. It’s just also a common euphemism for “pedophile” in the same places where people use “unalive” instead of “kill”

Just life “unalive”.

What is this self-censoring bullshit? We’re not on dear leader’s tiktok

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a TV series that you really, really liked and would enthusiastically recommend?
4·6 days agoAnd it’s much more than that. It also comments on how violent rebellion can be both necessary and irrevocably traumatizing, as well as many other themes surrounding the central conflicts.
