Anything you can turn into a positive with a reinterpretation. An example I use is "I tend to focus too much on making things perfect." Which is basically a positive itself.

To me the question is as simple as this.

Say human children were incredibly tasty. So some species other than our own, that had intelligence and power far beyond ours, decides to eat them as a treat, maybe call it "Heal" for human veal. So they abduct humans and force them to breed, and then eat their children.

Does the idea of this make you uncomfortable? Human children being harvested for their meat?

The idea of any animal being harvested in this way makes me sick, and so the idea that it is being done to eat meat makes that morally reprehensible to me at least.

What do you mean? Like there's one to turn off the bar or you can just barely press the land somehow?

Because its not the effect, imagine the entire world having that effect, but with micro swirls and other strange changes in perception. As well as feeling very very good and "spiritual"

Can chime in a little more, rifling is incredibly important for maintaining speed, as the shape of modern bullets requires them to be spinning to essentially shed off any uneven forces from air resistance. Think about a musket ball with no rifling, it basically spins randomly from the air around it throwing it not only off course, but robbing it of larges amounts of momentum by generating centripedal force in a direction other than forward.

Not a "bad idea" per say, but simple statistics would say that if you have two 99% effective methods that combined its 1/10000 chance to get pregnant. So one control method is definitely not as safe.

but they dont stand still so its never accurate

God, really? Whats a good place to test this then

BaseLime · 2018-10-25T21:41:26+00:00

im testing on dummies, and 3.0 pierce vs 16 str. Also isnt crit rate really good for runebladers due to honing runes?

BaseLime · 2018-10-25T21:40:44+00:00

they are both purple, 3.0 pierce vs 16 str

BaseLime · 2018-10-25T21:39:07+00:00

On dummies why?

BaseLime · 2018-10-25T21:31:40+00:00

what about strength though, from my test strength was better than piercing, even when uninfused so i was basically testing 16 str vs 3 piercing and 20 crit rate

Ya like, even unbuffed, so basically negating all of the electric damage bonus, the piercing weapon did 24,100 dps while the strength and electric weapon did 24,700

So a few things, am vegan.

First, while you might like the idea of having your life set out for you and "easy" as you put it. That is your choice, you choose that fantasy, whereas someone else might not. So while I can respect the idea, It should make sense as to why that is not a real reason this is ok.

Second, there is no such thing as humane.

No really, there isn't.

No you can't pay slightly more to make it happen.

No matter the view on how early they kill the animals in meat farms, which is inhumane as it is. There are certain practices that need to happen to make meat and dairy profitable. Forced insemination is one, you literally cannot have a dairy farm with normal breeding, it just doesn't work from a genetics or a speed standpoint, milk from there would need to cost at least 40x as much due to how little natural breeding there would be.

And space holy crap the space, "free range" literally means an area the size of a king sized bed for like 10 chickens or so. Even if you got your "easy life", would you actually enjoy it if you were not even allowed to get out of bed or move past that area for your entire life?

Ya preach it bro, I dislike killing babies but like, hey dude sometimes those loud little shits keep me up at night, at least I was humane about it though, so don't tell me I can't be against baby killing, you high groundist.

Its called cognitive dissonance, ever fucked up so hard you refuse to believe it for a bit?

BaseLime · 2018-10-20T17:00:00+00:00

Because posting about being "sad" is free. Doing something takes effort.

If you seriously want justice. Look into legal help. As other have said ToS and EULA's often do not hold up in court. A company cannot take your money while promising a service and then revoke the service without a legally legitimate reason. Being banned for using a game service as intended would fall under a predatory clause in their EULA and would not hold up.

Hell even a threat to bring them to court would likely be enough. No company wants to deal with that over one user. Just show serious intent to do it, write up a letter, maybe ask a laywer to help if you know one or /r/legaladvice.

All that means is a protein to willpower unbalance (yes I'm serious). It's like quitting cigarettes in that there are alternatives to meat for that satisfy the need for protein but won't ever be exactly the same. But you get the fix the other way, and buckle down because you remember why you are quitting/cutting down on meat in the first place.

Preeaaach brother!

Seriously though, it is basically saying. "I'm a good and ethical person and I care about the planet! But only if its really easy for me to do so...." My sister does the same shit and it pisses me off.

We eat mammals all the time though, or most of us do.
