  • There are opportunities in baking to deviate from the recipe, but it's important to know how the ingredients react with each other during the mixing or baking process. I know some people who add an extra egg to their batch of cookies, some who add extra butter, etc and those who follow it verbatim. There's certainly a lot less room for error, and a lot of small mistakes that can absolutely fuck the outcome, but there is room for creativity if you know which components are critical and which are optional. (and for which recipe, because some are more sensitive than others)

    Just don't mix up baking powder and baking soda like I did when I was 11. Worst mistake of my life, that batch of waffles was completely inedible and had to be tossed 🙁 (idk if that counts as baking or cooking but whatever)

  • The thing is, too, that remembering your decision to reject all has to be done through a cookie, and they know this and take advantage of that fact! 99.9% of websites only offer a choice that makes you dig through at least one menu, or a choice that makes you have to click the 'reject all' button every time the page reloads.

    There needs to be a mandate to add an option to "reject all except my decision to reject" that corresponds to a single boolean. It should exist under a standardized id, and if it's set to true, the site would be required to stop showing you cookie popups. And if the cookie contains anything more than that single boolean and the website it applies to at most, it should be illegal and reportable as such.

    Of course, as you mentioned, that would probably be quite difficult to accomplish legally.

  • Do we really though? Don't get me wrong it's some of the most entertaining content I've seen on the Internet but I think it brings more harm than good on the whole, especially with the fervor around GME that spun off into being downright delusional. I'd prefer if we don't end up bringing that over here tbh.

    I think the 'old' wsb even would be sort of borderline with the egging on and memefication of gambling one's life savings on weeklies

  • That makes sense. I always just used my email from the browser unless there's something specific I need from an email client or the setup is employer-provided/mandated, but I guess a lot of people just go with whatever is put in front of their face first.

  • idk it kind of looks like he hit himself in the head with it pretty good during the fall. It's obscured behind one of the housing posts but you can still kind of see based on how the railing and his head/upper body moves.

  • I mean, if it's an Outlook email and not from another provider using Outlook as a frontend, it's part of Microsoft's ecosystem anyways. Unless your whole inbox is encrypted (and it's probably not if it's not being advertised as such lol), it's on Microsoft's servers and they have control over it anyways.

    That said, definitely change the password if you just used Outlook as your email client at some point!

  • They don't want devices that last longer, they want to make something that seems like a neat gimmick that makes you pick them over the competitor, and they want you to come back and buy another in 5-10 years right after the old one fails about 3 months past expiration of the manufacturer's warranty.
