  Was more thinking of the inhalant gas used medically by dentists and otherwise known by enthusiasts as “hippie crack” or (more recently) “Galaxy gas”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What taxes are on a can of NOS in California?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Was reading NOS as “nitrous oxide” and was very confused

  You can’t tell the difference between almond milk and cow’s milk? More power to you, but I find that hard to believe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never buying milk from Walmart again⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It does help a bit with spoilage issues (by blocking light coming into the product) but what you said is totally valid as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never buying milk from Walmart again⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty much all milk in the US is homogenized, unless bought from a specialty brand/store. I can basically guarantee that Walmart is not selling non-homogeneous milk in the US.

  I don’t think they donated to wrestling

  Ah, a fellow chess enthusiast?

  Anyone who thinks alcohol “fixes problems” is probably not a serious person. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who truly believes that.

  Alcohol is, however, an inextricable part of the human experience throughout the world.

  Ok

  Thanks for your feedback

  Don’t tempt me with a good time!

  Nah, I go through the self checkout even with the one-year-old in tow, and 15-20 items.

  I feel like just the graphical style and colors of the poster scream UK (and I’ve never even been there, just pay attention)

  Your dignity

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BlueSky has drama so the Fedi-Marketers are waking from their slumber⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was working phone support a few years back and, when I asked this one lady what her email address was, she got confused. I started running out of ways to ask such a simple question when finally, all exasperated, she said (and I shit you not): “but I don’t have e-mail, I have G-mail!”

  So yeah, I get what you’re saying, people’s brains do be rotted these days, sometimes I just forget.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BlueSky has drama so the Fedi-Marketers are waking from their slumber⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never understood this argument. You pick an instance you like, make an account, log in, join the comms that interest you, comment on things, make posts, etc.

  This is all very normal internetty type shit that anyone who’s created an account somewhere should be able to do very easily. You don’t need to know anything about federation or how that all works. You don’t need to spin up your own self-hosted instance (but you can if you want).

  Am I missing something? It’s really not rocket science here. IMHO, the “fediverse is too hard” sentiment is missing the actually difficult bit, which is getting people away from the ingrained habits formed after years of only using Facebook, Twitter, Reddit et al.

  Yeah this pisses me off as well. And TVs now are much bigger and wider, too. Back in the day we’d split screen on whatever we had, which was more often than not an almost-square CRT with not much screen space to begin with!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is anyone NOT steaming their Music?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. Split between 5 people it’s very reasonable. This is the one thing I’m actually afraid to touch when it comes to degoogling

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is anyone NOT steaming their Music?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I prefer it poached or grilled, but I’ll accept steamed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mmmm... Yeah. It checks out.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  All cats are communists, obviously. They have no respect for concepts of “ownership” and expect to be housed and fed according to their needs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a drink with taste of energy drink without caffeine?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t really go wrong with b vitamins though… being water soluble you’ll piss out whatever your body won’t absorb, which is the reason for that wonderful neon yellow color.

  That hotdog’s looking pretty rough by dinner time

  But the fetus is my favorite part! Tender and juicy, like filet mignon. Religious extremists ruin everything good
