Nothing is nonstick like Teflon … But the VAST majority of cooking doesn’t require that level of nonstick, either.

Unless you have a French omelette addiction, you probably don’t need Teflon.

Hamas literally ran politically as MODERATES. They’ve gone full jihadist. Without democratic process to keep the structure honest no party can be trusted.

Hamas rips up pipe to make rockets, and steals construction supplies to make tunnels.

The pipe and supplies that are supposed to help Palestinians live and survive without disease.

So that Hamas can apply pressure to ISRAEL for the Palestinian conditions?

Myself and literally everyone I know want to support the Palestinians. And it’s impossible to support them while Hamas (or another jihadist organization) is there.

It’s a circle, not a line. Far left and far right end up meeting in the middle.

I recently got sick and decided to play through ff2 (iv). I’ve owned it since I was a kid but never beat it.

I finished it in less than 24 real world hours.

I was astonished at the difference being an adult makes with regard to gaming.

Right, it’s just a front door lol. I never considered that was a thing.

Pyramid scheme, not profit scheme.

Pyramid because the shape is a pyramid.

The first person, the one who sent out the original picture, received X books and sent none.

The next layer sent one book, and possibly received up to 36.

But those 36 each need 36 new people. It’s impossible. You’d hit the population of the earth in just a few rounds.

The companies BUILD IN backdoors so that they can steal your data.

But because the backdoor is built in, they have to constantly monitor and update the security around it so that “bad guys” (they don’t think they are the bad guys) don’t get in.

They only do security updates to prevent liability iirc.

The whole thing stinks.

Note: I’m not a software developer just an outraged bystander with tech hobbies and techy friends, it’s possible this isn’t true.

And the volume is cranked too high.

And they are intentionally annoying.

And the last time I had a video on without my adblocker, an ad came on that was literally a person acting like they were a content creator. It was over 3 minutes long. I was only half paying attention (I was driving and just listening to the video) and when I realized it was wrong I thought I had bumped the phone and changed videos. It was so disorienting.

All the ads are lies or propaganda. I hate them. I actively avoid products that find a way to force their ads in front of my face.

Literally all modern evidence points to the healthier tribal and nomadic humans having animal-based diets.

Healthier teeth, healthier skin and hair, longer lifespans, better musculature.

Don’t forget Coca-Cola Fanta.

“some brands of bikes” make frames out of carbon fiber with wireless derailleurs and have rear facing radar to detect when other bikes or vehicles are approaching, how fast, and on which side.

When your exercise, your recreation, your hobby, and your transportation are all the same thing, it’s easy to justify spending more to make those things as easy and pleasant as possible.

You can get a perfectly usable bike for very little money in America… Probably still made in China though 😂

Just BROADLY speaking, the pro Palestinian take right now is that Israel should be removed and Palestine given all of the territory.

Like, that’s the take. They don’t just want an end to the violence - Israel wants that too. Hamas has been dedicated to the destruction of Jews and Israel for basically forever.

So it’s asymmetrical.

The pro Israel take is “destroy Hamas so that these attacks stop and there can be peace.” But it’s important to note that up until the October 7 attack Israel only wanted peace. This new policy is a reaction to an unprecedented attack.

#! or bust

Oh!

Adam Something just released a C:S2 video where he removed roads and messed with traffic logic.

I too am an Adam Something fan. 😂

Also wait for sales.

$404 divided over 10 years is different than as a lump. But getting the whole bundle for 80% off because it’s been successfully developed for 10 years is value.

Star Citizen only feels like it’s been in alpha for 65 years.

Yeah people don’t seem to be understanding that this is a technical and pragmatic issue, not a business decision.

It’s the “new and improved” problem. If it’s new, it’s not improved. And if it’s improved, it’s not new.

If you want a new, cutting edge game, you aren’t just improving the old game. So the old stuff likely won’t be compatible.

If you want an improvement/extension of the old game, you won’t be getting a shiny new game.

They made the choice to make a shiny new game but they need to try to prevent the inevitable backlash from people being upset that they’re favorite X/Y/Z is missing.

So wait, your position is that Israel is behind the Hamas attacks on Israel, in order to justify their military action against Gaza?

Do you have any evidence to support that?
