Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Superbowl@lemmy.world•'One of a kind' reddish snowy owl appears to be returning to 'normal'2·16 days agoI feel like all the photos this singular animal has suddenly appeared in pretty much proves that if cryptids like Bigfoot existed we’d have much better photos evidence of them.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Gaming@beehaw.org•Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a Masterpiece, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an Indulgence6·18 days agoSame reason anyone has played any of the thousands of games that predate “the cloud” or games that don’t even have a save feature. Cloud saves? No thanks, never have, maybe never will.
Besides, if you’re not paying for the service, you’re the product not the consumer.

Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired?3·18 days agoDitto. The plastics floss/pick combos work even better. Being thinner and super flexible, they are less likely to cause damage and reach the tiny crevices better.

You sound like someone selling essential oils and crystals as medicine. Try again?
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•"I Let My Little Kids Run Wild in Public. Join Me!" Opinions410·28 days agoYou seem to be implying that you are somehow more entitled to that public space than kids. Sounds like something an entitled little bitch would say. Are you an entitled little bitch? Public space is for the public, ALL the public. If let your own hangups lead you to bullying the most naive and impressionable of us, then you are sacrificing other people’s freedom. And if you are people like this then I say, “fuck you too”. The social contract of public space doesn’t entitled you to be unbothered by other people.
To be clear I am in no way excusing parents that do not actually parent their children, especially in public. However the logic of the above comment is just a bunch of “get off my lawn” anti-social ME generation boomer energy. Also, kind of telling that the parent commenter just doesn’t see the parallels between their entitled attitude and everyone else’s entitlement. It’s a public space, if you can’t be compassionate, you don’t deserve it any more than anyone else.

They’ve been incrementally locking down those features and options (or security holes) over the years. I’ve used Tasker almost from the very first android phone to automate tasks and watched those features it tied into slowly get stripped away or locked down to the point of being useless.

What is that?1·2 months agoI mean that’s what you want when it comes to nuclear weapons. Right? Either be the first to know or the last to know. I guess some people would prefer to die in the flash than live and struggle through an apocalypse.

Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most exotic pet you've seen someone have?11·2 months agoReading is about more than reciting facts and quoting sources. Sure, you can read, but you have utterly failed to comprehend the context or the article or the actual substance of my comments.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most exotic pet you've seen someone have?11·2 months agoI understand that common names getting mixed use in families, genus, and species can be confusing, but you’re being willfully obtuse here just to double down on useless pedantry.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most exotic pet you've seen someone have?11·2 months agoAlligator is the common name for the family and also the common name of a few specific species. It’s kind of like how all tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises. All caiman are alligators, but not all alligators are caimans.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Pre made ingredients still cooking?5·2 months agoYou’re not really making your own bread unless you grow and harvest the ingredients yourself. What do you mean you don’t mill your own grains? Refine your own sugar?Can’t really even call yourself a baker unless you build your own oven. /s
Cooking and baking are basically ALL prep work and cleanup. The actual cooking and baking is overall a pretty small fraction of the overall effort that goes into making dinner or a loaf of bread. Go ahead and feel proud of yourself if you take on more of those preparatory tasks, IF it makes for a better end result. But that doesn’t mean you get to act superior to somebody else on a different path of their own personal cooking journey. Drawing an arbitrary line in the sand and saying “this is cooking, but that is not” is kind of like drawing a line between blue and indigo on a rainbow. It’s arbitrary and adds little to good the discussion.
Go ahead and cheat on those components where it works. Not everybody has the time, space, energy, or skill to make every bread, sauce, or spice blend from scratch. If you can make something better by getting back to the basics and fundamental ingredients, go for it! But let’s be honest when it’s more about pride than the final product, enjoyment of the meal.
Personally, the biggest reason I prefer to avoid pre-prepared foods that only require heating is so that I can avoid certain common ingredients that are often pumped into those things in insane proportions, particularly salt and sugar. It’s not so that I can feel proud of an arbitrary label.
