Tell me you're an asshole without telling me you're an asshole.

Global enshitification continues

I'm at a loss with this one

Lemmy tickles the same part of my brain without all the corporate bs - less content makes me scroll less, but less toxicity makes it worth it

I feel like Ive found my people and I ain't leaving

Back in my day this was 99c

Fun puffin fact: Puffins have conservative family values and mate for life, raising a single chick (adorably called a puffling) in the same burrow each year

Seeing puffin on restaurant menus in Iceland after learning this was a bit concerning

An in game tick in osrs is 0.6s so that's bang on

One meal a day

Endymion / Rise of Endymion was a great sequel too

The guy admitted to scaling the models to fit, because had a bee in his bonnet about how palworld "glorifies animal abuse"

There's an interesting conversation to have about where exactly the line between plagarisim and inspiration is, but it's unlikely palworld devs used stolen assets

The year is 2024

Your evening is free

Yet you're still playing ocarina of time on the n64 cause you're still stuck in the damn water temple

I believe that's called a "nightmare"

jumping off point

Woah there, corporate informs me this is insensitive to Lemmings

Lemmy HR will be in touch

Thunder breathing, first form

I'd have lost 90% of my hype if it wasn't announced

They're worth sticking with just to see the end of everyone's arc - memories legion is also great at filling some gaps all over the series

The show unfortunately drops off a cliff before laconia gets started - doesn't end in a bad spot, pre time skip, but the shite with Cas Anvar means they'd have to remake the whole last season to resurrect it

etoro is a broker that allows you to "copy trade" popular investors and portfolios, which mimc trades according to how much capital you have invested, though Nancy ain't gonna be on there

There's also ETFs such as ARK which are easy to get into, are managed by the likes of Cathie Wood and if they're doing a good job, only go up

Biggest regret in the last 15 years is not getting into it earlier tbh, if you have even a passing interest in trading, open a mock account (or a real one with some money you don't mind "losing") and just have a go - it's very simple nowadays. Gone are the days where you need to pay $10 to a broker to even make a trade

I'd recommend anova brand

You don’t pour water on a grease fire because grease floats and it will spill out of your pot and catch the rest of your kitchen on fire

I expect you know as you were mainly talking about batteries (on this post about batteries) - but grease fires are not quite dangerous just because grease floats and adding water causes it to spill fire - when you introduce the water it does sink, but then it superheats to vapour, rapidly expanding and almost erupts the oil, chucking a poor man's napalm round everything in the vicinity

It doesn't have to even be on fire, if the oil is >100 degrees and there's enough of it to superheat adding water will do the same thing (minus the flames) - a melted face is better than a melted face and a house fire, but neither are recommended

As an especially persperous gentleman... Absolutely

If I try to use a gym without a towel I end up flicking sweat everywhere and nobody wants that

I pay for 5g in London with EE with an LTE phone

I've turned it off - it's too unreliable even 3 years later... Feels like 1 bar of 5g spends an age trying to get a connection, then slowly reverts to 3 bars of 4g, which is ultimately just worse than just using 4g

Could just be my oldish phone, or the concrete jungle, but feels like shite to me
