Because obviously it’s impossible to take a photo with an underexposed foreground object and overexposed background.

Because the image is gold and a shade of blue that you can get from white if your white balance is bad enough.

You wouldn’t sweep an OR you would mop or squeegee. Kinda like the example I used was ‘sweeping a floor’ and not your straw example of ‘sanitizing a surgical theater.’

ok. maybe this will help.

Lets say there is a shortage of trauma surgeons and a shortage of theme park groundskeepers ride engineers. Is fixing one of these shortages more important?

Does that imply anything about the relative value of the labor being performed?

That is not what I said. That is another strawman.

You said EQUALLY important. I gave you examples of jobs that are not EQUALLY important.

That warehouse could contain medical supplies. They could contain parts to build trucks that will transport medical supplies. That warehouse could contain equipment to build the medical devices that the surgeon could use.

It didn’t it was mostly garbage fast fashion $5 shirts made to be worn once and thrown out.

. And to look down at anyone who does manual labour as less than someone who saves lives is extremely sad. You should be ashamed.

Fuck you quit projecting. I was using my own work as an example kiss my ass. YOU are the only one conflating the value of someone’s labor with their value as a human.

You’re just someone who deems worth based on what they do in completion, not that work and society all works together as a giant organism.

yeah and the heart is more important to the organism than the little toe. some parts of a system are more critical than others.

“ah but what if I change the example you used to a different example”

ok man have fun playing with your strawmen. Sweeping the floor of a warehouse is still not equally as important as life saving medical work. People who detail cars are not as important to society as paramedics.

Your ability to completely de-humanize janitorial work says so much about you.

cool strawman bro. Saying sweeping up dust is less important than saving a life is not saying “and you’re a worm if you ever sweep a floor”. I’ve had to sweep the floor at almost every job I’ve had, it was never as important as someone’s life.

The downvotes lol. You have to play along with the anarchist fantasy of “actually people would do 24 hour storm response shifts in one of the deadliest professions purely for love of the game, they definitely don’t tolerate the danger and [uncontrollable weather related] working conditions because of the compensation”

I have the radical belief that if you sacrifice more for society you should receive more from society in return. idk maybe the people spending 24 hour shifts doing dangerous storm response calls hundreds of miles away from their families should get to go back to a nicer house than somebody who just stocks shelves 40 hours a week.

*oh gross theyre an anti-leftist lib. I take back the expression of sympathy.

Sweeping the floor is not equal to doing a heart transplant, stop getting lost in platitudes and get a grip.

Oh well if it has some risks I guess that’s the same thing as having the same level of risk as smoking. 10% and 30% are actually identical because they both end in %

Impressive that you think having smoked imbues you with the knowledge of the long term risk profile of something different.

You are beyond delusional if you think lemmy comments have a greater impact on the election than the dem’s pattern of refusing to offer major reforms. People turn out to vote when politicians give them a reason to show up, not because social media says ‘ooo this is gonna be a close one’

Lemmy libs are bordering on a religion with the level of magical thinking and cargo cult politics going on. Idols just wash up on shore and if the blue idol doesn’t destroy the red idol it’s because you didn’t BELIEVE hard enough.

Criticizing the democratic party in the abstract 2 years out from the election in question is too dangerous. You can’t ask things of the blue idol, you can only worship and hope for the best.

dems in 2028: ‘we can’t run on healthcare reform it would be too risky and we can’t imply saint Obama’s main legislative legacy was a failure.’

dems on november 6th 2028: ‘what the fuck we told them we weren’t jd vance why didn’t people turn out to vote’

I think it’s fun to imagine there are only a few hundred freaks with persecution complexes and then thousands of normal people with normal reasons to move who are like ‘well this is extremely embarrassing to be associated with but this is super convenient for getting my visa’

I’m so distracted by the 50kg sacks of rice. That seems like such a pain in the ass size to deal with compared to 20-30 kg for seemingly no reason. I think that’s too large to even fit neatly on standard sized pallets so I don’t think you’re even saving volume.

And then it seems like way too much for end distribution unless it’s going to a community kitchen.

I just wish the musk circlejerk stayed in /c/enough_musk_spam. I’m not obsessed with him so I don’t care about his texas drainage permits any more than anyone else’s county drainage permits.

The only reason to care about this ‘story’ is if you enjoy getting mad at musk. It is so absurdly inconsequential compared to all the stuff happening in the world that is actually newsworthy. I don’t care if people want to obsess over him but it should be in a community for it. This isn’t tech news.

exactly the type of missing the point that I was talking about *

And of course nuance is dead and if you’re not jerking off in the circlejerk you must support musk and everything he has ever done.

*Ironic because I missed/ignored theirs.

‘if only those stupid voters supported our genocide gas would still be under $3’

I’m glad the sociopaths have to suffer too.

Good, hope it’s lonely. Die alone, bigot.

A lot of people get off on hating musk, they only really want an excuse at this point. Like the very upvoted comment ‘I don’t care if it’s outputting pure spring water’.

Nobody would care about this at all if it was any other company. ‘Company erodes county owned ditch without proper permit with water that would meet drinking water standards if you dilute it by half’. But people enjoy getting mad at musk so it gets clicks and upvotes. And of course this and every other comment that isn’t saying musk should be hanged for this will be downvoted because nuance is dead and if you’re not jerking off in the circlejerk you must support musk and everything he has ever done.

There is not so much of a shortage of real problems in the world that some permitting issue over a ditch in texas deserves global attention.

*oh what a surprise. the musk anti-fandom took offense.
