You’re missing the point. Addiction isn’t the only issue.

It’s not a competition of what is more or less harmful. I agree that they’re both worse than marijuana. I don’t see reasonable argument for pretending there are no risk though. As you know, we throughly awknowledge the risk of tobacco and alcholol. I think going back to caffiene is fair though. Most people they know there are risk to caffiene and they know that having too much of it can cause issues. Warning or awknowledment of risk isn’t to sway convince people not to do something, it’s to give them informormation to make an informed decision.
here’s the two options to present:
vs
The point I am trying to make is that it’s not harmless. There’s positives and negatives. I just know a lot people(and have seen people argue online) who can’t stop talking about the positives and act like there’s literally no risk. It has risks.
They’re not extreme or anything that means it should be banned but there is risk. To argue otherwise would be disingenuous. I think people are either being deliberately disingenuous, or maybe they literally don’t know that there is potential risk with marijuana use.
At least with caffeine I would approach it with caution similar to marijuana. Dosages above 300 mg/day are shown to have negative health effects. In general it is fine. Marijuana is also generally safe, but can have negative effects if you take too much or use too often.
People rarely refer to theanine as a drug. It’s more of a dietary supplement (food). It’s an amino acid.
I feel like the pendulum of how safe or dangerous weed is has spun back in the opposite direction. At the end of the day weed is a drug. There’s worse things out there’s but it’s not harmless. I know potheads who look at it like it’s another green leafy vegetable that also cures cancer.
Edit: I just realized this is the science community. This article is not science. It’s news or maybe an editorial. There’s plenty of legit studies to post if we want to have this discussion.
I have that labs feature enabled, this is what I get when I prompt it. Here
 this looks like it’s actually from their normal search with the labs feature turned on for ai. Bard is separate but uses the same tech.
I think he has the most popular youtube channel (or at least for english). The basic gist is him giving away absurds amount of money or expensive things for a silly task. Like going to the store and buying anything that the contestant can fit in a triangle.
I too like to sudo bash
There’s some tools take them easy to prep. I have a tool that’s just a metal loop and it’s amazing. Basically you just slice the watermelon in half then scoop out in either sphere shapes or long strips.
true, but reddit was not user friendly at first either. It’s one of the reasons why 3rd party apps got so big. In it’s current state, it will not compete with reddit. But expect it to improve overtime. Also, some apps are already solving this problem. The biggest issue is onboarding is very confusing. There needs to be a UI that just automatically suggest an instance and give you an option to change it if you’re an advanced user?
Mastodon has a bigger hill to climb because twitter depends on known personalities. Joe nobody has never been focus of twitter. On reddit, nobody cares who the OP is. It’s all about the content shared on the platform which by it’s very nature is going to be from outside sources. Reddit eventually got its own original content, but at it’s core it’s a link aggregator with a nice commenting system.
Maybe they can do something similar to reddit which is a popular tab by default. Basically just all with the nsfw and fringe stuff removed.
My current fix is just subscribing to a lot of communities and using all less. The other option is to uncheck nsfw but that of course blocks non nudity stuff too.
Wefwef.app might be the perfect option for you then. It’s a webapp.
you’re on lemmy.world which is now the biggest instance and therefore is getting hit the hardest with the reddit exodos. You can either wait it out for lemmy.world to scale their server, or you can try a smaller instance with less load on it. In any case you can still reach the same fediverse regardless which one you choose (with some exception as some instance are blocked or deferated, for example lemmygrad.ml is defederated from a lot of instances due their political POV).
That’s where apps come in. tons of great ones already. I like memmy on iOS so far.
To be fair, it worked well right before reddit cut off api access. This will probably happen everytime reddit does something stupid to drive away users. In other words, it could happen every two week based on how spez is lately.
Hard to argue Tesla at fault when clearly the driver was impaired and at fault here.
