This precise argument can also be made to justify a tightening on immigration from countries where religious intolerance is the cultural norm, on the grounds that "if you allow [them] to spread their ideology eventually there will be enough [of them] to be able to take the power by force, and when they do they’ll setback all of the tolerance that was advanced". Reasonable?
Would be interested in an intelligent rebuttal to this seemingly decent argument, if anyone has one.
I’m sure Ferrero understands what their target audience is for this and have accounted for the extremely close-minded omni demographic
Difficult to argue with that.
Another option: encrypt a sparse file rather than a disk volume. Mount the file to local filesystem and open and close it there.
How would this be alienating to someone who’s not vegan would otherwise try it as a vegan alternative?
The honest answer might be that the V-word is just off-putting to quite a few omnivores.
it feels like you’re overgeneralizing your own niche experience onto everyone else
To be fair, this is a forum where people express opinions, and opinions tend to be based on personal experience.
In this case I agree with them. In northern Europe at least, there are already vegan Nutella clones that are widely available and tastier than Nutella (which is tasty). For instance Nocciolata, which has a "dairy free" variant, i.e. vegan. Very delicious indeed but also quite expensive.
Fair enough!
So you would suggest to get bigger and bigger storages?
Personally I would suggest never recording video. We did fine without it for aeons and photos are plenty good enough. If you can still to this rule you will never have a single problem of bandwidth or storage ever again. Of course I understand that this is an outrageous and unthinkable idea for many people these days, but that is my suggestion.
The local-plus-remote strategy is fine for any real-world scenario. Make sure that at least one of the replicas is a one-way backup (i.e., no possibility of mirroring a deletion). That way you can increment it with zero risk.
And now for some philosophy. Your files are important, sure, but ask yourself how many times you have actually looked at them in the last year or decade. There's a good chance it's zero. Everything in the world will disappear and be forgotten, including your files and indeed you. If the worst happens and you lose it all, you will likely get over it just fine and move on. Personally, this rather obvious realization has helped me to stress less about backup strategy.
Amusing. This conundrum, exactly as described, has also been bothering me, on and off, for years. Having tried a bunch of solutions, I have recently settled on one that I'm quite pleased with.
A bumbag. AKA waist pack. (AKA another name which sounds both comical and vulgar to British ears.)
You're not gonna look cool but it works.
From the write-up, this looks like another example in microcosm of the Anglosphere's culture clash over the issue of speech. Namely, openness vs censoriousness, or safety vs harm, depending on one's point of view - and probably generation.
I am not (quite) vegan but since I seem to spend my time defending vegans I thought I'd try hanging out with a few and perhaps even sharing polite tips on how to be more convincing with omnivores. Risky plan! But I have not yet been canceled. Seems like that is partly to your credit. So thanks for being so thoughtful and open-minded, it really reflects well on this community.
Amazing! Great find.
That's a specific case that doesn't falsify my claim that most people in this discussion, here, are inflating away the meaning of the word Nazi so that it equates to, roughly, "somebody I don't like who is to the right of me politically".
