oh i know how this works and its not the way you think. Its somehow better and worse at the same time

Im going to describe the process using a hypothetical situation:

You decide to try a new shampoo but you’re not sure what to buy. You ask your friend “hey what shampoo do you use” and they tell you they use Head and Shoulders.

Later that night, you google head and shoulders and read reviews

The next day, your friend gets Head and Shoulders ads on youtube and facebook and Instagram, etc

This is because google knows both of your locations and search history. It sees that you two were within a few feet of each for hours and decides to shoot ads at you both, based on what either of you have searched recently.

This is called proximity targetted advertising and i think its gross.

But this is why so many people say things like “we were talking about it and now im seeing ads they must be spying on me”

Alright fine ill switch browsers AGAIN

if only there was a simple easy solution

like jurassic park, life finds a way

Comouter scientists are now able to change gender as an evolutionary response to the lack of women in STEM fields

the socks are not mandatory, they are just given out in case anyone is chosen to be the new cutest girl in the office

i will warn you that if you ever start saying “mrrrp…nya :3” even as a joke, it WILL trigger the process to begin

…oh shit wait

I wouldnt come to America until we see how our next election goes

If the Democrats win, you might be okay in a couple years

but if not, moving to California in 2024 is gonna be like moving to Poland in 1938

We are on the precipice of launching into fully unchecked fascism, or starting twenty years of the hardest repair work conceivable in order to make this country worth living in again

I really dont want to catch any legal flak for saying this but i just think if we caught and abducted a billionaire real estate mogul qe could probably have this problem like 70% fixed in under a week

It helps to define what processed food is, specifically what constitutes “processed”

From Wikipedia:

Food processing is the transformation of agricultural products into food, or of one form of food into other forms.

Food processing takes many forms, from grinding grain into raw flour, home cooking, and complex industrial methods used in the making of convenience foods.

Tertiary food processing is the commercial production of what is commonly called processed food.[2] These are ready-to-eat or heat-and-serve foods, such as frozen meals and re-heated airline meals.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_processing

TLDR; anything you do to a food item besides picking it up and eating it raw is considered “processing” if you want to be pedantic.

Colloquially, “processed foods” as a marketting and culinary phrase typically means “Tertiary Food Processing” but thats too many words to say every time you want to discuss potato chips

that was a great summary, thank you

trying to research such a broad topic was overwhelming

now that one i knew

oh no

i feel rad as fuck basically all the time

have you tried becoming a corvid? its a great life. Steal shiny things from big dumb humans, scream at the top of your lungs at all hours of the day, poop on cars

and occasionally torment an alcoholic horror author

America dominates my news feeds to the point that I just assumed law enforcement was an internationally fascist agency

Are there any lawyers in here who could write a “politicians are not allowed to say easily disproven things in a public forum any more” law?

Something where we can legally tell morons to shut up and then they actually have to

wowie this federal lemming or whatever has got some EHSPICY memes

i crave decisiveness like that. it would make me so happy if that sort of behavior became the norm.

too many corpos getting away with murder because they are more convenient than their competitors or because switching is too hard

hello, i have chosen to value your opinion above my own based on very shaky reasoning i will not be sharing

I abandoned chrome for being too RAM-hungry when im playing games w the browser open

i abandoned Internet Explorer for being too slow

and i abandoned firefox for being too bloated and sluggish, but that was like 2010 and things change

im currently using Opera but why do you choose firefox over its contemporaries?

…i just want to point out that you havent needed to power off a videogame console to change games since the original playstation in 1997 (or whenever that was, my memory of the Before Times is hazy)

im astounded they were arrested

usually these news articles end with “and the police did nothing at all until a black teenager was spotted holding a churro and shot into a fine mist by 30 officers on scene”

is your house just an oven and a light switch?

every netsec admin i know lives like that and is DISGUSTED at how many “smart” appliances i have

If a product says “AI” on it, and its not talking about NPCs in a videogame, i assume the product is shitty and took 30x the energy to produce than a human-made product of the same quality
