    Absolutely, well put!! It’s honestly sad in my eyes

    I’ve given up especially when it comes to Linux vs Mac on the topic of open source. People will have such a violent reaction that they cannot possibly consider Apple as anything else but the literal antithesis of open source.

    if you think Apple has a place in open source, you’d be right, but you’ll also get attacked for it because Apple bad.

    Only a handful of months ago Apple released open source AI models that run on-device.

    It’s so obvious over many years that Apple has always gotten their hands dirty in the open source world going back to even before the birth of OSX, both with use and contributions, yet this is stomped out by the notion of expensive and elitist Apple could never and would never actually bother contributing to open source codebases

    There do exist brands of “Vegan Cat Food” that have protein supplements that the manufacturers claim will meet the basic needs of the animal.

    that the manufacturers claim will meet the basic needs

    https://www.bluecross.org.uk/advice/cat/food-and-weight/can-cats-be-vegan

    Cats have specific nutritional needs, including protein requirements and amino acids (such as taurine and arachidonic acid). These needs cannot be met by a vegan diet without synthetic supplements. Additionally, taurine, (an amino acid, which is needed for many of your cat’s vital tissues and organs including their heart, eyesight, and immune system) is an essential part of a cat’s diet. Cats cannot make their own taurine so they must have it in their diet. Natural taurine can only be found in animal-based proteins.

    where is the science, the studies, etc. that prove the safety and benefits of vegan alt food (both short and long term studies that aren’t funded by said manufacturer)? Nowhere? okay then.

    Cats are obligate carnivores and cannot obtain all the nutrients they need from plants alone.

    Cats can become very ill if given a plant-based diet which has not been supplemented with these nutrients. If you are still considering feeding your cat a vegan diet, please speak to your vet beforehand.

    Hair is actually very much not the same from person to person, let alone race to race.

    As long as you shower regularly and properly wash it it’s literally fine.

    this statement alone is generic (and thus problematic when you try and apply it to all humans). What does regularly mean here? Every day? Every few days? Does this arbitrary regularity match a black person with curly hair vs a white person with straight hair? etc.

    It’s almost like a one-size-fits-all when it comes to health isn’t a great idea
