Do you have a Christmas meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) with your friends and family? If so, how was your experience this year?

Jump

  • We hapily skipped all the over-hyped family diners with lots of drama and went for s pyjama party with cheese-fondeu with only one good friend coming over. Can recommend, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    • Please help resolve a disagreement in our home

    Jump

  • Aaaah, the "As seen on TV"+drawer! Yes we have that one.

    • The European mind can't comprehend

    Jump

  • I'm happy to live in a developed country when I see this. Enjoying it while it lasts.

    • If you've ever interacted with someone who speaks a different language, what is the funniest misunderstanding you've had?

    Jump

  • A "handy" is a mobile phone in Germany.

    • That's right!

    Jump

  • Exclusivity in a romantic relationship is a social construct. Look into ENM. It might not fit you or it just might.

    • The message to Democrats is clear: you must dump neoliberal economics

    Jump

  • America should get rid of that two party nonsense and start forming a proper government.

    Those founding fathers would be ashamed.

    • Any tips for setting up a Mac? A 15+ years Linux user needs help

    Jump

  • Welcome to Apple. You just do what they tell you, there is not really any other option.

    • How do I quit smoking?

    Jump

  • What worked for me was to stop seeing friends that smoked and to go for a run every time I felt like getting a cigarette, instead of getting the cigarette.

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • I don't really need any form of TikTok im afraid

    • Hey Lemmy, what's a movie you think everybody should see at least once?

    Jump

  • Some you need to see to get the references:

    • Soylent green
    • 1984 (or read the book of course)
    • Inception
    • Everything by Stanley Kubrick and Tarantino

    Food for thought:

    • Free Rainer

    For something (more) crazy:

    • The Holy Mountain

    • Being an already decided voter in a swing state is swell

    Jump

  • "American democracy"

    • Norwegian government to set 15-year age limit for using social media

    Jump

  • With that logic we should give everyone a nuclear bomb and teach them not to press the button. Let's see how that works out.

    Big tegh companies spend billions on ways to influence your behaviour, making it even difficult for adults to not fall for their traps, let alone kids with still very much underdeveloped brains. Just look at all the stupid things you had done when you were a kid.

    • Honey

    Jump

  • My point is that there is no real way to explain what "vegan" really is, since it means different things to different people and all of these people have the best intentions. And actually there is no real need to define "vegan" either. Instead of focussing on what to call "vegan" and what not, the discussion should be about bees.

    For instance, do they care if you take their honey? Are they harmed? And should I care about whether they are harmed?

    • How do ye find new music?

    Jump

  • Sorry, but Spotify Discover Weekly of course.

    And I also always have Shazam ready to go for when out and about.

    • Honey

    Jump

  • True. Though marketing is a cancer in itself. But I guess that's a different discussion 😬

    • Honey

    Jump

  • Stupid discussion. It does not matter whether something is in the box "vegan". Ask yourself why you would or would not eat something. If you don't want to eat(/drink) dairy because of the way the animals that produce the dairy are treated, would you be ok when they are treated differently? Are bees treated in the same way? Does it matter if you treat them in this way? Those should be your questions, not "does it belong in this box?".

    • What was the Worst car you've ever owned?

    Jump

  • 35 y/o orange Opel Kadett. Would stall when cornering. Funily enough at the same time also the best car I owned. Fixed it once using the belt from my pants. Belt was on there for years.

    • A California police department spent $153,000 on a Cybertruck for school anti-drug events

    Jump

  • Did it work though? Would be fine for an investment if it actually worked...

    • Life saving hurricane data locked behind a $10/week paywall

    Jump

  • Welcome to capitalism

    • Why does the media print rags to riches stories?

    Jump

  • Indeed, instead of what they need. It's like only giving sugar to your kid to eat instead of vegetables, because that's what they "want". Oh wait that's actually what happens as well
