The thing is contamination pollutes upwards, so if leafy greens have 1 mg of radiation per daily intake. The meat from herbivores would be something like ten times that amount and carnivores would be ten times the contamination of herbivores.

We’re seeing this effect with micro plastics and fish, the higher up in the food chain a fish is, the more micro plastics they have

The hunting equipment can be for other scenarios.

Financial systems breakdown, into full anarchy. I reckon a cabin in nowhere, hunting equipment and barn full of seeds would be pretty rad for that scenario.

But yeah, eating plants is better than eating animals when contamination is a risk

There’s also laws in place if you’re in focus, that requires permission.

Sure I can take a picture of a plaza and if you happen to be on that photo, that’s bad luck. But I can’t zoom in on you garbling down a spinach roll.

For your scenario of going too close and forcing their way to film voyeur stuff, sounds like harassment

But in case of a radioactive catastrophe, how long would you need the bunker to last?

I do not agree Microsoft is in that category, but they’re mainly a B2B player today.

A little less than 20% of revenue per earnings '25 was from consumers - The rest for business offerings. I’m curious to hear which selection of companies you consider the main ones. Because Microsoft is still top 5 within Tech when it comes to power.

Google hit as big a market share as they could, so their way to grow the search machine was to increase the market.

How do you increase the market? By pushing the most relevant links further back, so people have to go to page 2, 3 or 4. So it’s unfortunately the best financial decision, short term, to enshittify their main product

It’s mostly all of the generated by LLM websites that’s annoying to shift through

You didn’t state you like the Republicans nor the current version called MAGAs, so you’re certainly a leftist

As long as blue ray discs are released, there’ll be webshops selling them

For digital media, pirating increases the number of sales

Why would you make it harder than it is?

libre office and you got an open source Office suite

I believe that’s very regional, if there’s a local hiking club you could try to reach out to them.

There’s often forums dedicated to hiking, which have all sorts of hikes mapped out.

But a map service like mapy.com (formerly .cz), has the official marked routes as part of their mapping data

And best of all, it’s based on an American average

Gravity walking is the missing link, lift your foot and let gravity pull it down. You’ll be going down almost running and it takes barely any energy.

It’s best in places without other humans, as you’re basically a locomotive and it takes time to slow down

Only ISBN’d books, so anything earlier than 1965 is currently not requested by them

Now we just need to proof they’ve copied the files onto a second hard drive, so they own two copies

If we’re gonna keep it as a copyright issue, I think people are mostly mad they’re not able to reprint the books themselves if they wanted to. We’re not speaking from a copyright position

The incentive is literally that it’s cheaper to scan, that’s all.

But given they’re only interested in books with ISBN’s, I recon they’re already scanned and available in digital forms. If they’re newer than the 80s, they’re most likely in a document file in a server related to the publisher.

Honestly surprised they’d rather source physical books, than just request various publishers for a price for their combined works - Only reason I can think of, is the physical scan makes other scans like a mobile photo easier to recognise and respond correctly to

If a big company needed a lot of something specific, they’d probably pay a pretty penny and let people going to small lot auctions accumulate a sizeable amount and then buy it from them.

It’s not impossible to buy stuff from small lots at scale, as long as you’re willing to pay a premium

They’re way more negative in regards to AI on Lemmy than they are on Reddit

I mostly see this chart focused on ultra processed foods, so the base ingredients are mostly safe?

Also as a filthy Scandinavian, Orkla Group does have quite a lot available in the ultra processed category
