Nothing is nonstick like Teflon … But the VAST majority of cooking doesn’t require that level of nonstick, either.

Unless you have a French omelette addiction, you probably don’t need Teflon.

Lemmy only has the information that I give it.

And it demands fairly little information.

I’ll take that in exchange for nobody privately owning as much of my shit as they can get their filthy hands on.

I recently got sick and decided to play through ff2 (iv). I’ve owned it since I was a kid but never beat it.

I finished it in less than 24 real world hours.

I was astonished at the difference being an adult makes with regard to gaming.

Yeah that’s a little unhinged

There’s a pretty big difference between stupid declarations about things that simply aren’t true, and trying to start a conversation. I just assumed with an axiom like that there was no conversation to be had.

Hamas is a jihadist organization though…

If they don’t represent the majority maybe they should hold elections and let a party that represents the majority take the lead?

There’s no extermination. Quit getting your talking points from Tiktok and Twitter.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

You pick songs, they squeeze ads and other songs in between (IIRC) and can gather data from how you interact with all of that.

You’re understanding the value of big data.

It’s why I reject all of these services. CDs, baby!

The article sure reads like AI word salad. Unfortunately it’s just legible enough that it could just be a dumb human with a thesaurus.

The government website is way more readable.

I hate Elon Musk and I still like the cybertruck.

I’m ashamed but I’d probably buy one and be happy with it, 100% in the city, doing mostly light hobby work, towing a boat, or locally camping.

Look at the tires, they are pretty suboptimal.

I switched to an EV 3 years ago and there is way too much torque at low rpm. The power curve just probably isn’t designed for loose dirt. Not to mention the cyber truck weighs a billion pounds.

Firefox with Adblocker Ultimate working fine for me as of last night. I’ll check again tonight.

“some brands of bikes” make frames out of carbon fiber with wireless derailleurs and have rear facing radar to detect when other bikes or vehicles are approaching, how fast, and on which side.

When your exercise, your recreation, your hobby, and your transportation are all the same thing, it’s easy to justify spending more to make those things as easy and pleasant as possible.

You can get a perfectly usable bike for very little money in America… Probably still made in China though 😂

Seriously, I don’t know why this is news.

Wait, yes I do, half the population is stupid.

While it’s a fact that the middle class is shrinking, I think you’re miscalibrated.

What’s Threads?

No, nevermind, I don’t want to know.

I’d happily pay for YouTube if they hadn’t done bullshit free shenanigans to kill their competition while expanding their reach.

I’ll never pay for YouTube now.

This is his approach to IP broadly speaking, I believe.

Edit for clarity:

If you can’t effectively try something without paying, pirate it and pay if you want to and can support it.

It’s a goodwill model.
