- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 18 minutes ago:
As a man, I genuinely wonder how much actual harassment women face vs how much they hear about it.
I get to feel that a lot of these fears are real, but many are manufactured. But I can be wrong.
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 22 minutes ago:
A small percentage of women will ever face any sort of harassment from male drivers.
At the same time, all male drivers will be affected by this feature, reducing their life-supporting income through no fault of their own, simply because they have “male” in their documents. I think that’s the point.
- Comment on Lenovo’s New ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability— Repair goes mega mainstream with the launch of Lenovo's new T-series laptops 2 days ago:
Even though they were considered repairable, they are now better than ever at that, and they require as little expense as possible to replace certain parts.
I don’t know what’s so hard about that. They had it good, they made it better.

These particular models are about to be released, hitting the market. With all renown Lenovo got for good long-term support, this is their most repairable product as of yet.
- Comment on Lenovo’s New ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability— Repair goes mega mainstream with the launch of Lenovo's new T-series laptops 5 days ago:
One thing to highlight: T-series Lenovo laptops are mainstream business products shipped at a huge scale.
This is not a small-scale experimental product for the tinkerers. This may define the biggest laptop segment if it works out well. It might be the first time in a while that something like this hits such a huge market.

Agreed! EVs are certainly superior to ICE cars, but they’re a band aid instead of a solution.
Bring back public transit!

That’s some serious advertising for a plastic container with extra steps 😄
Will look into it, though!

I’m glad to recommend the one I use if need be
Please do! I never pressed tofu before, only ate it as is, and yes, it isn’t dense enough to my taste indeed.
Looked up the air fryer recipe, nutritional yeast sounds like an obvious thing I didn’t try! Also, as mentioned in a different response, onion powder is an obvious thing I didn’t add.
Will also look into fajitas. Thanks!

I’ll see if I can get something of the kind in my area. Thanks!
- Comment on 2022 was a bleak year 😢 1 week ago:
Thanks! Didn’t try garlic and onion, despite it being an obvious choice!
- Comment on 2022 was a bleak year 😢 1 week ago:
It’s fine lol, most of the time I use something like the mysterious “chicken spices” or something :D
But what you did tell me confirms some of my own insights. Thank you!
- Comment on 2022 was a bleak year 😢 1 week ago:
As a curious non-vegan who tried to cook soy meat at home: do you have any tips and tricks to make it actually resemble chicken?
From what I tried, I could not reach anything resembling meat. Yet, I’d love to give it a spin.
- Comment on women 1 week ago:
Other “stats” are also both exaggerated or omit nuance.
For example, men actually do commit 85% of murders (not 95%, though) and comprise 81% of victims, so it’s mostly men killing other men.
Not to mention the fact that among ~170.000.000 men living in the US, 13469 of them, which is 0,008%, committed murder in 2024 - and that’s in the country with high crime rate, high police violence, and quite a few gangs. The chance of a regular person to be a murderer is even lower.

True! But I’m concerned that, as more young people have Internet as their primary third place and communication platform, more will be dragged into this bullshit for real, so, whether we like it or not, it’s an important place to consider.
I believe moderators should take more care to eliminate such harmful content from discussion, while we as users can take greater care to neuter it. Then we could start reclaiming normality in our communication despite the efforts do distract and engage.

Essentially if you’re bi and find a partner of another gender, you don’t even have to do the explaining

There you have it
- Comment on women 1 week ago:
Y’know what, this stuff is sexist. It would be completely expected and socially supported for women to defend themselves against such odd claims, but when men do this, it’s because they’re “insecure”, or “whiny”. This is nothing but the projection of patriarchal approach to men as the ones shrugging it off meant to silence them against the clear gender war bullshit.
But then again, we’re in the shitposting community.

Ultraviolence
- Comment on women 1 week ago:
Then the murder total is 10000/0,93=10753 with 753 being on women.
To equalize the statistics, women need to commit 10000-753=9247 murders.

I’m kinda sad that netbooks mostly died off as a device class. I’d love to explore newer options.
Self-hosting is cool! But having played around with it myself, I just found thin clients to be not so useful in a single-user environment. At most, it could be useful if you want high battery life and the ability to run something heavy from time to time. But being tied to Internet gets annoying very quickly.
Still, as a printing machine + occasionally connecting to the server for something more, it does deliver.

Recently got OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installed on an old 32-bit Eee PC.
The thing was an absolute ultra-budget potato 14 years ago when it was released, and yet, it still works just fine if all you need is editing some documents in LibreOffice. And, it lasts 6 hours on a single charge!

Yep, heard a bit about it. Didn’t include here because it’s still a big WIP.
- Comment on Android will become a locked-down platform in 194 day 2 weeks ago:
As far as I know, it is still reliant on the whims of Google through shenanigans with AOSP, and of course having to use a Pixel.
Linux offers a more solid and independent foundation, and while it is less polished yet, to me it’s the only real way out.

- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
It’s one of those “gender war” kind of posts that do nothing to resolve the underlying issues and just stir up drama.
Lemmy is very reactive to such content, so it’s a common instrument to spark wars out of thin air.
