Only if they consent :3
(but also probably not great in terms of infection risk either)

I would think that alcohol on the eyes wouldn’t do too many good things to them, however
One of the studied things was using antacids in that pepper spray study and didn’t find much benfit for it for pepper spray. There currently doesn’t really seem to much that research confirm works any better than any other liquid over the eyes
This smells like something being blocked by Cloudflare’s WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules. I’d imagine there might be a rule there to try to block requests that look like they could involve sensitive files like the passwd file

In most species, bird flu is both highly infectious and very deadly. A disease being very infectious can make up for its lethality
You’re not completely wrong, but image of being burned alive is quite striking to me
For anyone curious about the previous commenter’s stat
For chickens, the daily count is extremely large – 202 million chickens every day. To comprehend the scale, it is better to bring it down to the average minute: 140,000 chickens are slaughtered every minute.

Whoops corrected that
Burning building and creatures burning alive? The toxic smoke from it kills chickens
Only paying attention if it affects the price is why we’ll never hear about the surprisingly frequent cases of them
Millions of birds have died on single fires before. With how things currently are, it almost certainly won’t be last
They’re usually only reported on locally, but they kill hundres of thousands to millions each year by being roasted alive or from toxic gases
US federal regulations are also quite weak for barn fires. Unfortunately they are not alone in that. Other countries such as Canada and the Netherlands are similar and have frequent barn fires too
It’s worth mentioning this isn’t an isolated instance sadly
Fires on large-scale animal farms, or factory farms, are surprisingly common. Over the last decade, at least 6.5 million farmed animals, mostly chickens, perished in barn fires in the US
The true number is likely significantly higher, AWI notes, because not all states have the same reporting requirements, and because farm animals are property with essentially no legal protection from suffering

I mean it still should still be horrfying, just that it should something to be worried about globally rather than just locally
Yep, for a source for others about the plastic bit
The system that strips off the plastic wrappings can’t capture it all, and so in the UK a limit of 0.15% of plastic is allowed by the Food Standards Agency. The official EU level for plastic permitted in animal feed is zero although in reality many other countries operate within the same 0.15% limit.
I assume this is probably not in good faith, but answering anyway for a reminder to others
From just trump and the US alone:
There was the child sepeation policy

His appointments to the Supreme Court has led to abortion being banned in 14 different states across the US
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2023/nov/10/state-abortion-laws-us
Gender affirming care is now much restricted in a number of US states with constant threats at larger bans of all care
And so much more
In the UK, the right wing government has helped o underfund the NHS and make service worse
There’s a lot of damage that can be done. Just because it may not be as visible to one person, doesn’t mean it does not exist
To be fair my suspicious is steam deck users likely make up a larger chunk of recent desktop Linux growth and aren’t (as) likely to go to typical linux spaces online. Though since this is based on browser data, I also wonder how many steam deck users are actually browsing the web on them, so perhaps that my be a bad assumption on my part
Haha, luckily wasn’t too bad because it only nicked my finger for a really short amount of time. It rotated past my finger when it flicked around. Could have been much worse
Be mindful that a soldering iron cable can pull a soldering iron from your hand, so don’t have too loose of a grip. Learned that one the hard way :(
I think it’s worth reflecting on why being human should even be a relevant metric here. That they are not human doesn’t change what they feel. If they can suffer, as chickens and other farm animals very much can, why shouldn’t we aim to prevent suffering?
Don’t feel like you have to respond to this. I really just want you to reflect on that idea and think about it for yourself
There are perceptional reasons why it may feel like milk worked better such as it being cooled vs using room temperature water. Or from being the second thing used. Or from various different factors
But the research above suggests it doesn’t do as much as people think it does
The infection risks are not the same. Milk has stuff in it that microbes like for growing where water doesn’t have nearly all that. Other stuff can enter inside. The eye infection pathway is concerning especially right now when bird flu seems to enter that way and is in large quatities of dairy milk. Not all pasturization methods are certain to actually remove it (i.e flash pasturization might not)
Edit: A minor point to clarify, capsaicin is in pepper spray but not tear gas. They often do get conflated but they are different
