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.

Hamas literally ran politically as MODERATES. They’ve gone full jihadist. Without democratic process to keep the structure honest no party can be trusted.

Hamas rips up pipe to make rockets, and steals construction supplies to make tunnels.

The pipe and supplies that are supposed to help Palestinians live and survive without disease.

So that Hamas can apply pressure to ISRAEL for the Palestinian conditions?

Myself and literally everyone I know want to support the Palestinians. And it’s impossible to support them while Hamas (or another jihadist organization) is there.

It’s a circle, not a line. Far left and far right end up meeting in the middle.

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.

America.

2x4 studs are 3.5" deep. Even interior walls have drywall on both sides, usually over a half inch, but even half inch drywall, tape, mud, and paint, gets us to 4.5-5" thick.

That gives you a 2 inch “buffer”.

Is your body thicker than 2"?

There’s just no way it works.

2 and 7 feels OP compared to any other combo by a mile. Definitely getting nerfed in the next patch.

Unfortunately most walls are thicker than 7" when accounting for decorations, furniture, trim, etc. Not to mention adding your own thickness.

As usual, the onion nails the satire.

It’s technically our second place and it’s bigger, newer, but needs a bit of updating.

It’s not everything we wanted and between closing costs, moving costs, the exhaustion of moving and adjusting to the move I don’t think we’re going to do it again before we’re priced out of the thing we want.

We were hedging against either a bigger market correction or a bigger price explosion. Instead we just got weird global stress and fatigue.

Arguing from empathy with no regard for facts is hopeless.

Arguing from facts with no regard for empathy is dangerous.

We need both.

Right, it’s just a front door lol. I never considered that was a thing.

Pyramid scheme, not profit scheme.

Pyramid because the shape is a pyramid.

The first person, the one who sent out the original picture, received X books and sent none.

The next layer sent one book, and possibly received up to 36.

But those 36 each need 36 new people. It’s impossible. You’d hit the population of the earth in just a few rounds.

The companies BUILD IN backdoors so that they can steal your data.

But because the backdoor is built in, they have to constantly monitor and update the security around it so that “bad guys” (they don’t think they are the bad guys) don’t get in.

They only do security updates to prevent liability iirc.

The whole thing stinks.

Note: I’m not a software developer just an outraged bystander with tech hobbies and techy friends, it’s possible this isn’t true.

But if you tell the customer how much things cost they won’t buy as much.

It’s just layer upon layer of dishonesty. The only time businesses get honest is when the government forces them to.

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!

And the volume is cranked too high.

And they are intentionally annoying.

And the last time I had a video on without my adblocker, an ad came on that was literally a person acting like they were a content creator. It was over 3 minutes long. I was only half paying attention (I was driving and just listening to the video) and when I realized it was wrong I thought I had bumped the phone and changed videos. It was so disorienting.

All the ads are lies or propaganda. I hate them. I actively avoid products that find a way to force their ads in front of my face.

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.
