If you don't mind me asking what is so important about privacy?

  • Advertising shits in your head

    Companies fill the space now with their hideous brands, waging the same frenzied battle as the jungle species in order to appropriate the public space and attention with images and words, like animals with their screams and piss’

  • I would say remove the doors from all your toilets but you yanks are already a bit weird with your bathrooms!

    • TIL John Astin, the father of Sean Astin (Samwise Gamgee), auditioned for the part of Gandalf, & had previously starred in Peter Jackson's horror comedy 'The Frighteners'

    Especially bizarre after Sir Kid Starver was the one at the front of the "Peoples Vote" campaign to have a referendum on the final deal!

  • Exactly.

    Its not being Chicken Licking and freaking out that the sky is falling but we certainly dont need to play our hand this early in the game.

    We know Meta is not a good faith actor. We know they will try to subsume or extinguish the fediverse if they cant control it but we dont need to go pissing our knickers and do the work for them.

    • Meta: Community opinions on content sources, and multiple posts

    Jump

  • Multiple posts When news breaks, it’s exciting, and everyone wants to post. This can mean discussions getting fragmented.

    One of the things on Reddit that was annoying was the lack of moderator intervention to stop this by making one thread the 'stickie' early on and stop the flooding (brain has forgotten the term usually used for it).

    Another issue would be not to use paywalled sites, or if they are, to post a link in the text field to one of the sites that will scrape the page such as archive.is

    • Other Plant Milks > Almond Milk > Dairy Milk

  • I'm not vegan. I just don't drink milk and I'm certainly not advocating veganism because you don't have the ability to commit to 10 minutes to make your own oat milk so howTF are you going to make such a lifestyle change?

    All I did was say how easy it is to make yourself as you complained about the cost and when you bleated about your very busy important lifestyle, laid out your options.

    It's quite obvious the biggest hurdle to you making changes to your life is you so good luck with that and I hope it works out.

  • Nobody has the time to do that.

    Plant milks need to become way cheaper than currently 5x the cost for me in India.

    So you have 3 choices there:

    1. Examine your time management as you will have time that youre actually just procrastinating or pursuing bullshit that doesnt really matter as much as you think. (Dont lie - Very few people actually dont).

    It takes 10 minutes to make a batch. Less time than will take you to walk to a shop (see here for a simple recipe/process: https://minimalistbaker.com/make-oat-milk/ )

    1. Pay 5x the cost for plant based products - is your time really worth that much in exchange for the convenience?
    2. Keep drinking disgusting cows milk.

  • To make them cheap, make it yourself.

    Making oat milk is a really simple process & to make it more like commercially available products, you can add various other ingredients such as xanthan gum to bind it as well as various things for flavour such as a small amount of cinnamon.
