  Source? This seems almost impossible

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon needs cooking advice⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but if you stir it into a warm sauce it will mostly dissolve and it will still substantially improve it compared to no salt at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries programming in Java⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t really like Go either, but it’s better than Java, and it’s pretty good for Big Software ™. In the end, every language has some problems. Java just has all of them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is jealous⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  People say her podcast is actually good. I don’t know, I haven’t listened to it, but if so, then she is playing the game with decidedly more skill than just one 5-second video clip.

  If someone “perceives they are losing out” because of doing something positive for women or minorities then that says a lot about their worldview, they are the ones responsible for polarisation there.

  Agreed on the campaign though, it was the dems’ to lose and they royally fucked it up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not worried you're worried⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the demographics of voters are just made up, huh? They are the overwhelming supporters of the far right. Don’t wanna be painted like that? Don’t vote for fascists.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not worried you're worried⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, straight cis white men will get hurt economically and through living in a degraded society, but they will not be forced to carry pregnancies, or be murdered because of their race or their sexual orientation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not worried you're worried⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah the thing is the average trump supporter will be hurt less than everyone else (and that’s the whole point)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spoopy Science Costumes⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is, to within 5%

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clever, clever⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, I guess cryptography is just fraudulent, who knew

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨have you ever been given a warning or suspension for using profane language at work?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry, people here yell at you for not using profane language because “you can swear on the internet”, they’re a weird bunch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon visits Paris⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Paris has pretty good food but it’s below average for France, the south is where it’s at.

  *structural biologists

  The crystallographer is sitting in the beamline control room at the synchrotron swearing about how this person mounts their crystals right against the metal pin

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proud globohomo⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “just”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Drink it, I dare ya⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They have replaced the H in the chemical formula for water (H2O) to represent “coconut”. However, C already stands for a chemical element, carbon. That implies this product is a molecule made of two carbon atoms and one oxygen. If such a thing exists, it would be incredibly unstable and react with anything it touches; you certainly would not want to drink it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proud globohomo⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is satire for sure

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨reddit cat subs be like:⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re different because on Lemmy they’re called comms ;)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨a few centuries⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s Rodney, the district just north of Auckland in New Zealand

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tells the tale of the Garfield phones⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ahaha, I almost believed you that that was the real name of the town, but mer is feminine

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vectors Part 2⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know what you said about pendants but… Apples are integers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Natural Inspiration⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Those crossings we do also have in NZ, a country with many sheep

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Natural Inspiration⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The house is also something you definitely wouldn’t see in NZ, I also think Scandinavia, probably Norway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon goes to the gym⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The health benefits of exercise likely outweigh the negative effects of COVID for most people, especially vaccinated

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fromsoft classes like⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ruby turds⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Putin maybe, Kim-Jong definitely not. Just Meta’s net profit (let well alone revenue) is well over NK’s entire GDP. Even if he literally owned the entire country he wouldn’t be nearly as wealthy as Musk or Bezos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets calls from scammers⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Scamming is core to what it is to be human, other animals don’t scam, and when they do insofar add they do we say they are like us

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets calls from scammers⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But what about <incredibly contrived specific example involving song lyrics, guns to heads etc.>, can I say it then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elsevier⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Those few top people are assholes who love the enormous power they wield over PhD students, postdocs and junior faculty, and they are usually editors on those big name journals. Unlike the people who actually do the work, they are getting paid from this system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elsevier⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope, you just can’t get a job unless you suck it up and publish in these journals, because they’re already famous. And established profs use their cosy relationships with editors to gatekeep and stifle competition for their funding :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An evil origin story⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t have to be a conspiracy to have that effect or reflect that view
