Wrong. Doctors lied about it for years when it first came out and long after

Some doctors may have been wrong, but that doesn’t mean nobody knew cigarettes were dangerous. I’ll save my time and assume that if you’re this unabashedly wrong about this, you’re probably as unabashedly wrong about everything else too

What’s the actual difference between a cancer cell and a normal cell, aside from the fact that cancer cells don’t kill themselves? Is cancer from a cow transmissible to humans?

People knew the effects of tobacco for centuries, actually. But also, it became widely known as soon as it started being widely investigated. I have the same argument about vapes all the time. Within like 2 years cigarettes went from being something prescribed by doctors to something that everyone knows gives you cancer. When something is as heavily scrutinized as vapes or lab-grown meat, you can be damned sure the effects will be widely understood within a couple of decades

Lmao like we’re selling snake oil

What is in lab grown meat that you reckon is harmful?

Is the leaves thing common for people who get glasses for the first time? That was the most intense sight for me at 25 years old, was seeing the individual leaves on a tree like 50 feet away

I hope they enjoyed the quarter of a cup of seeds they got out of those shells

Not always an option. Sometimes reaching for your phone to turn it off will get you killed. Just don’t use biometrics.

Millions voted for him? So like, 3% of the country? I’m not surprised you don’t see those geezers on here. Personally I see a lot of Biden/Harris bumper stickers in my city. Usually on cars driven by sentient piles of dust

Most notable roundening I can think of is Lara Croft’s boobs. They weren’t triangles when you played on a CRT!

It’s simple: return the item

You basically need to buy a commercial model to get one that doesn’t have or need an internet connection to do what you need it to.

You can just not hook your TV up to the internet

How many times do I have to leave this comment

I wonder if that’s because the people who voted for Biden aren’t the people using Lemmy

I voted for a geriatric socialist who’s against the genocide in the 2020 primaries actually

I mean the right has already made it clear that they’re 100% pro genocide, straight up recommending that every Palestinian is killed. The worst Biden could possibly do is be as bad as Trump.

And I said you’re wrong, because it’s not. Let’s just agree that you’re wrong and stop wasting 1s and 0s

In this very thread, like six parent comments up, it was already established that China is not communist

I wonder if there’s a reason why I said “the vast majority” and “legitimately implemented”

Nah I’m sure I only picked those words because they sound nice

Not necessarily, it could just mean that the vast majority of the time it would be legitimately implemented, a larger country that doesn’t like communism spends a lot of time and money interfering with it

Not really, it stays liquid until it boils, so it can stay outside the cryo chamber for a few seconds. And since it’s pure oxygen, on top of the dangers with liquid gases being super cold, it’s also a potent oxidizer, so it can set fire to some fuels without a hear source

No, it’s pretty distinct from communism, which is why it’s not called that
