Not all Christians are Catholic. A fair number of denominations were created specifically because they didn’t like what the Vatican was doing.

I don’t believe all critics are unqualified or unhelpful, just that the barrier for entry is so low that any “critic review” shouldn’t facially be held as more valid than an average consumer’s view.

IMO the worst reviews tend to be from large gaming journalism companies. There’s a lot of systemic problems with them like crunch, people writing reviews on genres they don’t have experience with, nepotism, and them inflating the scores of AAA titles so publishers continue to give them early access allowing them to release reviews in time. These aren’t all necessarily the fault of the writer of each of their reviews, but do degrade the credibility of the review.

Sticking with games there’s good journalism that comes from independent reviewers, like Dunkey, but they’ll typically have a specialty in a particular genre. My general go to is usually reading Steam user reviews, but only taking to heart those voted most helpful that actually give critiques and praises. Independent critics or user reviews in my eye have the great benefits of not being beholden like large studios.

Someone did a great breakdown comparing user and critic game reviews and outlining the gaming industry’s issues in this video: https://youtu.be/YGfEf8-SNPQ?si=

Off of digital media entirely Project Farm is probably one of the best out there if you’re looking for tools.

The funny thing about being a critic is it doesn’t actually require any qualifications.

At least in the USA no. You can destroy a firearm with a hacksaw. Here’s a figure with approved forms of destruction. Note the width of the white lines represent removed material.

As others have said for the most part with the advent of interchangeable parts guns don’t get beyond a state of repair often. Some probably do go to landfills but they’re metal and metals tend to be one of the few materials worth recycling. Other might be parted out if their damage is isolated to a few parts.

I’m unaware of any federal law on the mater (not really their jurisdiction) and check your own local law, but probably not. If anyone has a citation otherwise I’d be interested in reading it.

It’s a minor thing in addition to what everyone else has pointed out but led parts helps with trouble shooting.

The UN is like the Michael Phelps of creating resolutions that involved parties won’t recognize.

Good. Lemmy, like Reddit, is fundamentally user driven platform. The most important thing for the life of it is people making posts.

Dead furbearers are no longer a part of the population due to the means of sampling, trapping. So they’ve been removed from the population.

The actual amount of trapping is limited meaning the removed animals are de minimis compared to the total population.

It’s important to continue to collect data as you implement changes to ensure that your efforts aren’t having adverse effects.

Here’s a report on the practice: https://www.nhfishandwildlife.com/assets/Performance-reports/W89R21-6Furbearer 2023-Final.pdf

The point is that it allows us to gain metrics on the population so we can implement meaningful changes, based on data.

Not the fur farm side of the industry but actual trapping is still done but as a means of controlled population management for furbears. Specific species like beaver have a tendency to continually grow their populations as many places we’ve extirpated all natural predators.

I third this. It is an excellent no hud game because of all the diegetic elements, like the physical map or the filter time remaining being shown by your watch. Lots of games will have ui menus you have to go through. Metro doesn’t.

I think this is a flaw in the current state of Lemmy. There’s so few posts compared to Reddit that random people will find your 3 upvoted post in all. This leads to people outside of the community dominating the discussion.

You can also see this with other communities. Everytime I see the conservative one in All it’s a non conservative OP being insulted by other non conservatives, because they assumed OP must be a conservative to post there.

There being an anti tech community won’t solve this issue. I think the most accessible solution is moderation.
