What’s the point of having a delete account feature if you can log back into it immediately?

Welp, it was nice while it lasted - Lemmy.world

The idiot band seems to have arrived and getting more antagonizing and gaslighting users confronting me than those who are civil. It was a matter of time, too. People gotta come around to ‘Reddit’-fy things and it’s showing. I can tell in the attitudes that it’s very distinct. Talk about the karma system - people spitefully downvote you. You make an open minded question, people bastardize the context and twist it around. You bother replying to the antagonistic people, they play the victim card and spin even more of what you put infront of them. So, great, wonderful. Another fucking platform that’s contaminated by a select band of retards. They just can’t fuck off and stick to their little shit pool, so they’ve got to gravitate over here.

What are worrying signs that society's intelligence is slipping? - Lemmy.world

Are people outraged just to be outraged or are they outraged because they don't understand? - Lemmy.world

Let me prop up a very common thing that people love to absolute hate - rich companies. Particularly, Wal-Mart. They say everything and anything to bash the company. While some of the things said is valid, like running small businesses out and maybe corporate doesn’t have all of the answers and the Waltons are particularly greedy. Yet when I decided to google Wal-Mart’s operating expenses, we’re talking hefty amounts to run all of the stores it has, plus it’s operations overseas. It’s still a lot and I felt a ting in the back of my mind that maybe there is a bit of a reasoning for why a company as big as Wal-Mart has to do things like cut down expenses or lower wages a little. And people simply don’t understand how that part of business works. They’re not in the shoes of the people operating a big company and they don’t understand how much and what it takes to run a giant franchise. They think it’s as easy as being sat in a position and all of the money the company is withholding is all in some giant vault, that’d be withholding billions that they can distribute or something. So is all of the hate that something like this gets a little exaggerated because people don’t understand or is it justified?

Do you ever use coinflips to decide what you want to do? - Lemmy.world

I sometimes do and I did just a few minutes ago as I’m typing this. I decided 5 out of 7, whether or not I was going to go to a chinese buffet today. The coin decided 5-3, that I will. Then I wanted the coin to decide if I’m going thrifting today and with a landslide of 0-5, it didn’t want me to. And do you stick to those choices?

TrueUnpopularOpinion - Lemmy.world

Yes, this had to be made because already I am a little disgruntled about how the main unpopularopinion community is ran and what content I’ve found on there. So I wanted to make a true version, the ‘true’ part being, that it’s sought for more thoughtful opinions that are beyond 2 lines and actually are more fleshed out we’ll say. It is not meant to be a platform where bigots, racists, sexists can finally get their rocks off by being who they are. That’s what plagued the TrueUnpopularOpinion over in Reddit, it is infested with alt-right people pretending to be sophisticated and their mods are pushovers. I’m not aiming for this community to be that. TrueUnpopularOpinion [/c/[email protected]]

So what is Reddit's CEO up to? - Lemmy.world

When stores prematurely remove limited items that can still be sold through the day they're meant to end by - Lemmy.world

I expect this to happen but debating on having one today, but Papa John’s is having a limited thing on the menu that has lasted for two months now. It’s the doritos papadias and I’ve already had one. It was good except for the person making it didn’t put enough ranch spices on it, it was mostly on the crust parts which defeats the purpose of the whole papadia. Anyways, it’s set to end tomorrow and the advert had said it would be available on menus through 23rd, implying it’ll be available through the day until the 24th. But I expect it to be removed as soon as even today because some locations are assholes like that. Where they’d remove limited time things way before it’s even over. So that when you get there, you’re confronted with the speech that it’s not available anymore because of them prematurely removing it. Some places are cool to even allow limited time items even go beyond a little of the date.

YSK: To account for all calories when cooking - Lemmy.world

One of the biggest overlooks when it comes to cooking dinners or any involved meal with multiple ingredients is accounting for the calories each ingredient will take. Let’s say you’re cooking pasta and you want to include the sauce, some seasonings, some things to mix with the pasta .etc You’re done but you won’t know what each bowl of that finished pasta will be like per serving. That’s why you have to take into account, all of the calories of the ingredients. That tablespoon of vegetable oil you use, that’s 100 calories. The sauce you’re gonna use, that’s probably another 100. The pasta, 140 probably. It doesn’t work as if the calories are going to vanish by the time you’re finished cooking said meal. Each bowl you could have, could amount to over 500 at most, but you may not know it and it’s easy to overlook. That’s why also, it looks like people pack on weight so easily when they’re down to just dinner meals to eat. They pile up fast.

TheOldWeb - Everything about Web1.0 - Lemmy.world

Just opened up a while ago, I’ve made TheOldWeb and it is what you think it is about. A community, where we talk things about the Web 1.0 era of the internet, before the rise of social media and everything we today have taken for granted as the internet progressed. I couldn’t use Web1.0, which is what I originally wanted to call it, because punctuations isn’t allowed in titles, so I came up with TheOldWeb. Not a lot going on, but if you want to see it; TheOldWeb [https://lemmy.world/c/web1]
