Goes in the same category as the ones with the ‘I’m crying with laughter’ emoji.
It reminds me of one of my cognitively heavily throttled ex colleagues who, when she told you a rather old joke that was even mid when it was new, she would grab you by the shoulders, shake them and keep laughing forcibly to get you to laugh, because why are you not laughing, this is funny, you should laugh.

Fifteen million merits.
If we want to avoid this shit, we need to come up with a free, open source, ad free alternative, for everything you see doing this. The problem is, once it becomes big enough, you’ll need at least some money invested to keep it running (server, maintenance, services, etc.). And then guess what generates enough money that scales with usage. I hate this, and I reaaaaally hope there’s some other way.

Haha, thanks, it’s still just perfect to stir my tea with.

Unless it’s a joke, I can definitely see myself leaving my designated teaspoon in a glass of cafiza/Puly Caff overnight. Not in the fridge, though 🤔.

Haha, yeah, meals containing cheese. Including (rather great) toasties.
- Comment on Veganuary 5 weeks ago:
About 5-6 years ago I did the same thing. I’m still a shameless omnivore, but I managed to reduce my meat consumption significantly. Around 2024 (so several years after I started) I had to get my blood analyzed. The only thing they found was my lack of vitamin D, but I live in a country with minimal sun exposure, so it’s a thing here anyway.
Note that I still eat meat, but way less often than before. I started with a maximum of two meaty days per week (no cap on meat those days), but not as a fixed schedule: I just allowed myself when I really craved it, but not more than 2 days a week. Can be 1 or 0.
Fast forward to the end of 2023, when I started thinking about when I last had meat, and I couldn’t remember. It wasn’t quite hard, to be honest: there are awesome veggie meals around, and I still eat dairy and eggs whenever.

I’m a helpless cheese/dairy addict, trying to cut off as much meat as possible. Unfortunately, a few years ago my body had decided not to deal with that anymore, and I became slightly lactose intolerant. Now, I can either go vegan and end up eating shittons of legumes, or I can keep eating cheese (my workplace provides free food, but basically everything has cheese in it). I’m trying my best to keep them alive, but it’s not easy.

Maybe it’s just me, but inconclusive results are still results, and get you a tiny step closer to the solution by redirecting you in a different direction.

That’s admirable! I looked it up in translate and got a completely different result. I think I know what was going on : ) 🦃

I think we can - but just see how many people in your country call Turkey Türkiye (they made a request back in 2022) - and that was just one country, not all.
- Comment on Learning Japanese 2 months ago:
It’s like calling the entire country of the Netherlands Holland. Holland(ia?) is part of the Netherlands which gave the name of the country in a bunch of languages.
This is weird, by the way, I just wrote about the exact same thing not too long ago.
- Comment on What a great idea 2 months ago:
I used to work at this kiosk which was inside a café. A customer wanted to pay from the inside, which can happen, but it’s rare. Since the reader was cable wired to the plug at the window, I had to bring it to where he was standing, but the cable wasn’t long enough. I pulled it out as much as I could, and waited for him to step forward and reach out with his card is his hand.
He was just standing there, waving his card at the machine from ~3-4 feet away. Like, I don’t know, at one point the cats reader would go “HEY, that card is Larry! Hi, Larry, how are you doing you old sonofabitch?”

True, my bad for a poor word choice. I guess ‘people’ would have been more appropriate. But I guess the rest holds.
