Dried or fresh cherries will also produce the effect in sufficient quantity. Which is how I learned not to eat a bag in a sitting.
- Comment on You're not alone: This email from Google's Gemini team is concerning 3 days ago:
Few years ago I got a Nest Secure to go with my other Google Nest gear. One day Google emailed me to tell me Assistant was now enabled on my security system. Oh, by the way, it has an undocumented microphone!
That’s when I realized what a privacy nightmare Google really is. I know Apple isn’t great but come on.
- Comment on “It changes everything:” Plunging costs of PV and batteries mean 24-hour solar a growing reality 3 days ago:
I’m halfway across the country from you but our corrupt fucking government made buy-back for solar generated electricity super cheap to make solar ownership less affordable, and more profitable for the utility.

You got a dog? Still smoke?
- Comment on It is what it is 4 days ago:
That was actually their lawyer’s argument, that “incognito mode” being private was just something people assumed and ran with, not their fault.

Front end, back end
- Comment on OpenAI supremo Sam Altman says he 'doesn't know how' he would have taken care of his baby without the help of ChatGPT 1 week ago:
Parenting books were serious business, whole generations were raised with Dr Spock for instance, who had fucked up ideas about childrearing.
It’s one thing to ask for tips on getting a baby to sleep, it’s another to ask it for formula recipes. Unfortunately I doubt most parents know the line where it becomes dangerous, but I am hoping here.

Makes me sad that I know exactly what you mean, this new glass shit has me nervously eying the Linux door.

- Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2 weeks ago:
Nationalization is the opposite of privatization, it’s how the US’s bureaucratic state was really built, we should absolutely do this and right now is the time
- Comment on Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates 3 weeks ago:
Japan introduced brake lights that increase intensity based on how hard the driver was braking. 20+ years ago. They tested it in the US and drivers found it to be “confusing.”

Am I allowed to just post the word “luigi” or will that get me banned like the Bad Place

He explains how he did it in the article… what is this becoming, reddit?!

- Comment on The New York Times Just Published Some Bizarre Race Science About Asian Women 4 weeks ago:
It’s been the punchline of a dark joke for years.
You gotta get those little hands building the little toys.
We make the dark joke because we know it’s true, but we can collectively point at a tech company and say it’s their fault, and still enjoy the fruits of their labor at prices we can afford.
Globalism - hyperglobal capitalism - is all about externalizing the negativities and internalizing the positives.
- Comment on We're deep into the baggy era mate 4 weeks ago:
Yeah i grew up in the 90s. The skinny jean crazy didn’t land with me. I wore baggy carpenters until they died, then the widest bootcut I could find.
Now I am in heaven, my favorite aesthetic is everywhere, baggy jeans, shirt sleeves over long sleeves, hell yes let’s skate

Thankfully lots of us can’t read and are blissfully unaware at this late hour.
- Comment on On trees... 4 weeks ago:
Mushrooms are the great undertaker, the great decomposer. The Langoliers. They are just waiting to eat you, and they’re happy to share their fruits in the meantime. They’re fattening you up. They can wait.
- Comment on A 19-year old cis lesbian woman was beaten unconscious and robbed after she tried to use the women's restroom at a McDonald's in Carpentersville, Illinois 4 weeks ago:
The state will fail to accomplish anything meaningful in prosecution - a bad deal or bungled case. Plus there’s the notoriety the case is already generating. She’ll need to file a civil suit as well, and she’ll need someone making sure everything is OK on her end (the attacker doesn’t counter-sue for instance).
I’ve been the victim of hate crime, you think you’re gonna get a justice boner and fight it to the core, but in reality the simplest/safest answer for the victim is to shut up and make it disappear. You’re already traumatized, fighting is confusing and painful.

- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 5 weeks ago:
I am super torn here because pre-back-surgery me looks at these and says “the NERVE of these fuckers” and post-back-surgery me is like “Well that WOULD be nice yes”
- Comment on Italian style pizza 5 weeks ago:
“made with real cheese” so it can be 1% real cheese and 99% petrochemicals and the line works.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Exactly this. People use the word way too casually these days, but addiction literally means something that’s out of your control despite specific efforts to control it.
One of those efforts is usually moderation though, so when you see someone questioning or struggling with moderation in a true addiction, you know that there’s hope for them to get clean. They are “contemplative.”
- Comment on ‘It’s real y’all’: People are sharing their tariff receipts, and my wallet is not ready for what’s coming 5 weeks ago:
It also takes the manpower. Americans really like sitting in cushy offices whenever possible, or being in service roles in general. Manufacturing is like, hard, and not fun, and you can’t scroll on Insta while you’re making shit.

This, but if I jerk off before bed and don’t shower, I throw on a fresh pair of boxers and endure it to make sure my sheets aren’t all cum-streaked.
