I eat vegan chicken nuggets all the time and honestly they taste almost exactly the same. In fact I’d say any vegan version of highly processed meat (sausage, burgers, etc) tastes very similar.

Just recently Starbucks gave me a real sausage patty instead of Impossible and I didn’t even know whether it was “real” meat at first — I had to take another look at it and see that the shape and thickness were different (and the store admitted it was the wrong product when I returned).

Every time I see these guys’ faces I cringe so hard. It’s frankly embarrassing working in the tech industry when most people think of them at the very mention of it.

Are you thinking of Tor? i2p can be very quick once your node becomes aware of others.

What’s with the fucking AI slop everywhere today?

Why is this always the go-to answer? I kind of wish we’d stop asking it must sync to the clearnet.

Honestly if Lemmy (and other services) were built from the ground up for anonymous overlay networks rather than clearnet in the first place it would be a better place overall.

I’ve felt like I’m in a simulation quite often. It sounds very cliché and I never thought I’d actually feel it (the idea has always fascinated me but c’mon, really?) up until the last few years.

Fucking sick people. Imagine going into work and doing this subhuman shit all day.

I can’t remember for sure but I think it’s common knowledge that lemmy.world blocks VPNs. Just switch to an instance that doesn’t.

That means the fries were probably not handled with care while they were frozen.

I don’t really care either but I think immediately calling it “not news” is maybe a little much.

Huh? AI will spit out a four page essay unprompted.

I can be hard enough on the brakes

Why not put it into a lower gear whether it’s sport mode or just manually shifting into one? Mountains in my part of the world are rather hard on brakes too if you’re just riding around in a high gear.

Why are you using ngrok to host an instance? 🙈

Why is the image hosted at i.redd.it?

I keep wondering why images aren’t loading and it’s because they’re hosted by Reddit? I blocked them ages ago but why are we using Reddit’s CDN for Lemmy posts’ images?

I can eat spaghetti “properly” but it’s also painfully slow. If I’m somewhere in public there’s no way in Hell I’m ordering spaghetti because I don’t want to be eating like 30+ minutes later than everyone else.

I wouldn’t say I eat slow by any means (generally speaking) but it seems like people these days can’t wait to shovel down food fast enough so I’m already at a disadvantage from the start.

Seriously, I am so sick of IPv4 still being “default.”

Web developers (or rather those that pay them) will do literally anything but stop spying; fucking trolls. It’s disgusting how greedy people are.

(Disclaimer: I’m a professional web developer myself but thankfully not in the realm of unethical spyware shit like this.)

Yep, this really scared me at first but while reading it does say:

Intel supplying Apple-designed, Arm-based chips would differ from the era of Intel-based Macs, which used Intel-designed processors with x86 architecture.

What in the rambling run-on sentence is going on with this actual headline though it’s like it just keeps going and going but the driver struck her toddler brother too though
