One viable alternative is to use nothing and let the fish live their lives.

Agreed, if from a corporation. FOSS services are usually also gratis, and can be compiled from source if not.

Your freedom ends, where the freedom of others begins

You can block instances yourself, I personally don’t like when an instance makes that decision for me.

Fair enough :)

Is Boost really that much better than Eternity or Voyager that you put up with ads?

Here in Iceland, where this is located, we produce more green energy than we consume and can’t store that energy, and the carbon is pumped straight into the basalt below which absorbs it. I think doing it here is a decent way to do research on improving the technology.

Very true, as long as they have not been pregnant we don’t need to milk them.

Most of Dominion has been filmed in Australia, profits always come before welbeing in any country.

What happens if you don’t milk a dairy cow?

Not milking a dairy cow, can cause a lot of problems. A dairy cow will produce about 8 gallons or 30 litres a day. Adding to the problem of not milking is the missing calf, as they are normally kept separately to ensure higher milk yields.

If you stop milking this cow altogether, milk production will continue until the pressure starts to build up. This process normally starts a dry up phase, which will prevent the cow from producing more milk.

Because of modern breeding practices, it’s impossible for dairy cows to dry up naturally in a high production phase before facing serious problems. As, extending this phase increase the milk output of a cow, making it more profitable to keep this state as long as possible.

For those cows, stopping to milk them will cause the udder to increase is size until it can not expand any further. This cow will be in serious pain at this point. Caused by the enormous size of the udder it will also be in the way of everyday activities, preventing the cow from properly standing, sitting or laying.

If pressure still isn’t released then the udder can rupture or get infected. Ultimately leading to the death of the cow, if she is not treated and pressure is released.

“Multi-bird waterbath stunning (WBS) is the main commercially used stunning method in poultry” from a study based in France and Spain.

Even though the Scientific Panel on Animal Health and Welfare, in its opinion on request from the European Commission, stated this in 2004, “Since welfare is poor when the shackling line and water bath electrical stunning method is used, and birds are occasionally not stunned before slaughter, the method should be replaced as soon as possible.” (p. 16), yet here we are 20 years later.

They uncovered that stunning might not be effective, which leads to the birds avoiding the blade in the bleeding process just before the industrial standard scalding procedure.

Therefore, many birds will be scalded alive, which can be seen from hidden camera footage in Australia, with the same stunning and scalding equipment they use in Europe.

Chickens can fly short distances, their wings are very important to escape predators such as house cats.

Not sure if being hung upside down and getting dunked in boiling water (with high likelihood of being fully conscious) is much better.
