• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would I pop a bag of popcorn on the microwave?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  And even in the microwave, you don’t need microwave popcorn. Just a bowl that is covered, but not too tightly to let hot air escape. No oil needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protip:⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Stores can’t dictate what’s legal, so this is not illegal. It’s just not allowed under some store rules, but the most they can do is kick you out.

  Amazing. Like my company is not that big but no single user would be able to destroy everything like this alone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indian grocery startup KiranaPro was hacked and its servers deleted, CEO confirms⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand how this is a real issue nowadays for any business with more than a few thousand daily users. Servers should be easily re-deployable and databases duplicated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit sues Anthropic, alleging its bots accessed Reddit more than 100,000 times since last July⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  … Yes?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨glupi jebeni bot⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That happens in Google maps too. A 4 star restaurant is not good. But in Japan, 3 star is the norm, and 5 means exceptionally good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In Attack on Titan, magic (titan powers) had historically an edge over humanity, but the story is in part about how Humanity’s technology has advanced to almost surpass those magical powers and shift the power balance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The technology to end traffic deaths exists. Why aren’t we using it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Meanline Tesla: were removing radar and make the car blind when it rains to cut costs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨>:)>⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean you can do a smoldering sexy look at someone if your eyes face sideways. Makes total sense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨>:)>⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or goats just find forward facing eyes to be sexier.

  Not sure the old lady will be too happy with the new flatmate once it starts taping up all the space

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Alright then. I’ll look into it. Thanks 😬

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That seems like a bit too much for my personal use…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish there was an alternative for soda stream compatible gas tanks around me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More than 7,500 flee from flooding in Buenos Aires Province⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This isn’t the beginning. It’s easily the second act by now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-hosting is having a moment. Ethan Sholly knows why.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No. They just want to buy an Apple home thingy 🥹

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-hosting is having a moment. Ethan Sholly knows why.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  99% of people want computers to serve them, not to be fun. My SO couldn’t care less how much fun I have setting up home assistant. They just want to turn on the lights.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone loves some good food;⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you give me a recipe for the first one?

  Nothing sustainable about the current bio fuel industry

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Portugal Joins Switzerland, Austria, and Luxembourg in Outright New Dash Cam Ban as Summer Travelers May Face Hefty Fines Over Privacy Violations in Europe - Travel And Tour World⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder what this means for people who already own cars like Teslas that have multiple cameras constantly recording.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a hard core vegan. I’ve been banned because I’m apparently a “carnist troll”. In their defense, they unbanned me after I appealed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 fundamental forces⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Weakest force but with the longest range right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'I saved my ID card and my dog': Israel expands demolitions of West Bank refugee homes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have no ID, good luck trying to stay alive, let alone protect your dog.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve personally never been banned on reddit, but been banned 2 or 3 times on Lemmy for being too argumentative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s very important context for this question

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do Americanized names of places etc exist?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Languages don’t have to do it. Languages are organic and evolve constantly. A language is not a set of rules, it’s what people speak. The books just try to formalize it. But each language has limited set of sounds, so older names of places often used only those sounds because people literally couldn’t pronounce other sounds. Or when the name is something totally different, it’s usually very old names for things, ans they often get changed! (recent examples are Turkiye and Kiwiv). You also can’t force people to use certain words, it either comes naturally or falls out of use.

  They care more about toilet design than literal toilet architects. It’s almost funny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Robert De Niro's Son Comes Out as Transgender at Age 29⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you hate yourself and your mental health, do peruse the comment section of this article. It’s really good for losing faith in humanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Age verification for adult sites comes into force in France⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  At least there’s some level of consideration for anonymity, unlike in the UK and US. Still not great
