Hockey star Matt Dawson amputates finger to play at Olympics
  • I get your point and you also pointed out in your other reply that we don't know all the information here.

    I had "stenosing tenosynovitis" as a child. And while it can resolve itself, my parents opted for the surgery. And it worked out fine. Yes, it's not quite the same, but people have different expirences.

    That's exactly why I think there needs to be some kind of investigation.

  • Hockey star Matt Dawson amputates finger to play at Olympics
  • Fair enough, maybe saying "without any medical necessity" was over the top here.

    Still, it very much seems like the decision was motivated by the desire to particapate in the Olympics. The medically sound thing would be to try and fix the finger and amputate it when it doesn't work out.

    But of course information is limited and it's all speculation. Still, an ethics investigation would seem appropriate in my opinion.

  • Bacon tho
  • But… The post is already encouraging people to eat meat.

    I think you misunderstand the post then.

    The post is pointing out the hypocracy that killing an animal for pleasure is generally regarded as wrong, except when it comes to the sense of taste.

    It's very much a pro-vegan post.

  • Kebab war ignites as Germany fights Turkey over food protection
  • I translated the name, try searching for "Verein Türkischer Dönerhersteller in Europa".

    But really the name is self explanatory.

    The dish "Döner Kebab" was invented in Germany by Turkish migrants and became very popular. Now a group from Turkey is trying to enforce their definitions and regulations of what a Döner Kebab should be on our dish.

    This has nothing to do with German people or government denying power to German-Turks. This is German Turks fighting back against Turkish-Turks trying to interfere with their buisnes.

    Like image some activists in Italy would demand that the US government ban the word pizza unless it's refering to italian-style pizza.

  • Dienst an der Waffe: Tausende Minderjährige beim Bund
  • Es ist nicht so das sie dich als 17 Jähriger erstmal 10 Leute zum üben ermodern lassen. Es sind praktische, technische skills. Benutzung von Geräten und Maschinen, koordination im Team. Nichts was jetzt irgendwie super speziell ist oder man einem 17 Jährigen nicht zumuten kann.

    wenn ich zur Ausbildung zum Krankenpfleger 18 Jahre alt sein muss

    In dem Fall ist das so weil man unter 18 keine Nachtschichten arbeiten darf.

    Im privaten Bereich darf man auch erst mit 18 im Wach- und Sicherheitsgewerbe arbeiten.

    Aber die Ausbildung kannst du schon mit 15 anfangen. Das ist also wieder analog dazu, dass man vor 18 auch nicht in den Einsatz darf.

  • Dienst an der Waffe: Tausende Minderjährige beim Bund
  • Die Entscheidung zur Berufswahl ist halt keine für die man Volljährigkeit braucht und man kann sich ja später auch wieder umentscheiden. Und vor 18 wird man bei der Bundeswehr auch nicht in den Einsatz geschickt, was konsistent mit der Auto- und Alkohl Regelung ist. Seh keine Diskrepanzen.

  • Is this true Love?
  • Ha, I deleted that comment but it didn't federate properly.

    I deleted it because "potato bug" is a name shared by many unrelated athropods with pill bugs just being one of them.

    My expertise is with spiders and I'm well aware of the folly of common names and their ambiguity. Still walked right into it ...

  • Request for being a moderator of c/spiders

    I don't really want to, but it doesn't have any mods currently.

    I have some expertise with spiders and would rather stick to doing just IDs, but since there is no mod maybe it's good to have a contingency plan in case some spam turns up ... or to delete the classic "it's a brown recluse" comment ... when it's any brown spider.

    But I'm happy to concede to anyone else that actually wants to be a mod.

    Anime newbie looking for suggestions

    I watched "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" a few weeks ago which is probably my first proper anime (not counting the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon or OnePiece I caught on TV as a child) and I really enjoyed it.

    Especially the slow but deep character build up and general world building and exploration themes were really captivating. So I'm looking for something similar with focus on these aspects.

    So far I found "Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina", which was ok but didn't quite live up to Frieren and wasn't nearly as captivating.

    So does anyone know similar shows or at least shows that focus on the aspects of story telling I mentioned avove?
