Other than possible health concerns, I have no moral issues with eating humans that died from some other cause. There’s nothing intrinsically wrong about it, it’s a cultural thing.

TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldOPto NFL@lemmy.world•Saints' Kamara suspended for 3 games, apologizes for role in 2022 fight, thanks Goodell for meeting51·2 years agoWell I think criminal acts being punished in the courts is a pretty rational take. As far as being punished by the NFL, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect some sort of punishment on top of that. Most people would get fired from their jobs if they were filmed beating the shit out of some guy.
But my disappointment about this punishment is more about the fact that it was the only chance for Kamara to really see consequences for his actions, since the courts aren’t going to give him any jail time. I’d prefer for most of the punishment to be through the courts but that isn’t working right now.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldOPto NFL@lemmy.world•Saints' Kamara suspended for 3 games, apologizes for role in 2022 fight, thanks Goodell for meeting61·2 years agoIt seems like the league is moving towards shorter suspensions for non-football related offenses if they don’t result in jail time (which they often won’t because money). This is pretty disappointing and I hope courts start pushing actual punishments for these players that break the law so we don’t have to rely on a corporation focused on making money to dole out the punishments.

TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did Ross cheat on Rachel in Friends?English8·2 years agoThe problem is he didn’t stick around to talk out what “a break from us” means. He stormed out without saying anything when she said that. And it’s not really his fault, he says he assumed that meant a full breakup which isn’t unreasonable. But most people know that in reality when you’re in a big fight with your SO, sometimes you say things that you don’t mean the next day so you probably shouldn’t be making huge decisions that will affect the future of your relationship based on them. Assuming you want the relationship to continue which he obviously did.
He’s not a bad person for doing what he did, he’s just an idiot for doing what he did when he wanted to still be with her. Even if it was a full breakup, that doesn’t mean he couldn’t win her back. Sleeping with someone else makes that much harder though.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did Ross cheat on Rachel in Friends?English13·2 years agoThat’s perfectly fair, but don’t expect the original person to want to get back together with you then. It’s not about whether it was ok for him to have sex with that girl, it’s whether or not Rachel was justified to not want to get back together because of it. Which she was. And he knew it, or he wouldn’t have immediately tried to hide it.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did Ross cheat on Rachel in Friends?English672·2 years agoHe didn’t cheat on her, but that doesn’t mean she was obligated to be ok with what he did. If he wanted to have a chance with her ever again, sleeping with someone else while they were on a break (or even immediately after breaking up) was a stupid thing to do. Part of Ross’ problem was he was so focused on the technicality that they weren’t actively together instead of the reality that it still was obviously going to hurt her.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldtoGaming@kbin.social•The Witcher producer blames Americans and social media for Netflix series' simplified plotEnglish5·2 years agoGame of Thrones was the most popular show in the world not too long ago and is more complicated. House of the Dragon is also complicated and did well just last year. There have been tons of complicated dramas that have been popular. This is just a dumb excuse
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto NFL@lemmy.world•Jets OC Nathaniel Hackett: Sean Payton violated coaches' code with comments7·2 years agoIt’s not like the whole NFL world doesn’t know Hackett did a terrible job, so Payton didn’t expose him. He just made himself look like an ass saying stuff people already knew.

CBS and Nickelodeon team up for NFL's biggest game0·2 years agoI don’t really have a team so I’ll usually watch the Nick versions if I can. But yeah I don’t think I’d do it for the Super Bowl, it’d feel weird. And the commercials will almost definitely be different.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•12.3 Billion Miles Away: NASA Has Lost Communication With Voyager 2 SpacecraftEnglish9·2 years agoA shift of 2° at 12.3 billion miles means it’s now pointing about 430 million miles away from the earth. The likelihood that it would be pointing at one of the small handful of man made objects that are out that far is infinitesimally small. Imagine being in a filed 100 miles wide and spinning a bottle with a laser pointer on it and hoping it lands pointing at a single bottle cap at the edge of the field. That would be magnitudes more likely than this pointing at one of our objects. And even if it did, those also would have antennas pointed at Earth so they couldn’t receive the message without turning which might cause the same issue for them.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Musk rushes out new Twitter logo—it’s just an X that someone tweeted at himEnglish9·2 years agoThat’s not exactly true. He’s talked about buying it for a little bit and was trying to buy enough shares to be on the board. The board essentially made that impossible so that’s when he put out the joke offer to buy it outright. But then he entered legitimate legal proceedings making that offer official and agreed to pay a certain amount in damages if he withdrew the offer. Then he tried to withdraw the offer saying it was a joke. Then they said “ok, pay us the damages you agreed to” and he tried to pretend that wasn’t real. Then eventually agreed to buy to get out of paying damages (and getting nothing out of it) because he knew his excuse would never hold up in court.
So he wasn’t forced to buy it, he was forced to meet one of the two stipulations he agreed to in a contract, one of which was buying it.

That way people that like it can use it and people that don’t can block it themselves.

TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Those of you who shower barehanded: Do you lather and then use your hand, or just shove the soap wherever it needs to go?431·2 years agoI imagine they mean without a cloth, poof, or loofa. As a kid I would put body wash in my hand, lather, and rub it over my body. But it tended to use up soap quickly so either I had to add more soap part way through or the things I washed last didn’t get washed well. Which is why I switched to a poof.
TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.worldto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Lemmy.world update: Downtime today / Cloudflare6·2 years agoIf it’s the same people, they’ll probably get tired of it and move on. But the more we talk about it, the more likely it is that new people want to get in on the “fun”. I’d say to not make memes about the downtime and pretty much act like it doesn’t exist (as users, obviously the admins should take action as necessary to mitigate it and post to be transparent).
