Why don’t you go fight instead of talking big.

Thank you. One reason I stuck with ee instead of one of the other instances I made accounts with was that eventually this place was the only place I could go where I could still see content from all the instances I wanted to see. I couldn’t just make an account with one of those instances because they were generally defederated with one another.

I find the checklist format for dietary guidelines like Dr Gregor does to be more compelling and easier to groc. These plates make it seem like you should fret about achieving a specific balance. It’s like when people try to achieve very specific macro splits, instead of focusing on getting the things their body needs (enough proteins, essential fats, fiber).

I’ve never had water explode in a microwave. Never had a potato explode in the microwave either.

Once I started using Lemmy I never touched Reddit again. So I guess Lemmy.

YES

At least if we go off the Lemmy definition. I don’t self identify.

You’re kinda being toxic right now by purposefully misconstruing what I said so you can hit me with a cheap comeback.

Nobody is forced with a gun to play a game with a toxic community either, does that mean it’s not worth complaining about? Perhaps the article should mention the supposed tradeoffs required to police such a community. I say supposed because I’ve played far less toxic games than Vallorant and League that don’t require such invasive software. Perhaps Riot should do some introspection and ask why the games they make foster such bad behavior instead of harming nontoxic players with their policing methods.

It’s relevant because the article acts like strictness is a unimodal thing. Riot decides how far they want to push it and some people will fall on one side and believe chat is overly sanitized while others will fall on the opposite side and believe that chat is overly toxic.

This makes it sound like the only reason someone could take issue with Riot being zealous with their policing is because that person wants to see these toxic behaviors in their game. The article quickly mentions hardware bans like they are magic, even though something like harder to spoof hardware is one of the reasons Riot would give for requiring invasive software.

And similar to how I won’t accept a game requiring such invasive measures I also won’t accept an article glossing over these things. Just like there are many players who see no problem with toxic behavior there are also many players who don’t see any problem with Riot’s measures or are simply uninformed, and the article should be more informative.

I’m all for banning toxic players and cheaters, but the fact that they make you install a rootkit on your system to enable this is too much.

Biting into a piece of dark chocolate for the first time will cause me to quickly sneeze similar to how people do when the step out into the sun or inhale black pepper.

Fairly hilly, sometimes snowy for half the year, both annoying but manageable. Infrastructure is excellent for recreational biking but quite mediocre for commuter biking and running errands.

This week I made enough chili for four large meals, and it took under half an hour and was very cheap. Just canned beans, lentils, tomatoes, chilis + dehydrated vegetable protein + spices.

Infinite peanut glitch.

You could probably just output OBS to a virtual webcam and just do a regular video call over Discord.

Vegetarianism (or in his case pescetarianism) is not inherently reductionarian, so him saying he’s become much more vegetarian isn’t really meaningful without knowing how much of that land based meat was replaced with fish and cheese. Dairy comes from cattle or other ruminants, just like red meat. Fishing is ravaging the seas like agriculture is ravaging the land.

L’esprit de l’escalier

What’s the good in this case?

Amoretto sour or gin gin

“Twice what it takes to boil water” doesn’t make any sense.
