Assuming OOP does infact just microwave poptarts and relies on other ready-mades, I don’t think they have all the necessary equipment for baking.

I just think it’s a tougher place to start in because while you get exact measurements, there’s more nuance and less room for improvising.

I tried baking something (pigs in blankets) for the first time after having cooked for years. If you are not fully prepared for every micro-disaster that can strike during dough making, your life will be hell. Cooking pasta only has the prerequisite of knowing how to boil water, and reading the time for how much to boil the noodles.

You can follow the instructions on bread, quantities and time to bake, and yet there’s still stuff you have to account for and know from experience.

Baking is the worst place to start for a beginner, because it reauires more precision in ingredient quantity and technique. There’s little room for error.

Whereas with cooking a simple dish like pasta or rice, you have more leeway with quantities and cooking times and preparation. And wayy more room for error. You can easily experiment with more/less of ingredients because it won’t affect the overall dish and flavour much.

Whereas with baking, dough for example is hell. You need an almost astronomical precision unless you want to glue your entire kitchen, or make it too runny, or too floury. Baking also becomes more difficult wihout measurement devices, whereas with cooking trusting something loose like a cup or just eyeballing isn’t catastrophic.

scrolling in the comment section of this news article, i’ve only seen people either being concerner/shocked, and some sarcastically talking about recycling or something. Nothing about masturbation.

And if your criticism of lemmy is that it’s being reddit with elitism, then why try to gatekeep the way people are going to react to an article on c/science? Are we all supposed to have degrees in chemistry or biology before making a comment?

Believe it or not people take heavy news a million different ways and react differently. People ending up making a masturbation joke after discussing microplastics in testicles (i assume this is what happened) harm nothing and no one.

counterpoints:

This would only hold up if the person is using male/female and not man/female

And assuming this still holds up, why not go with male/woman? The type of people to use this shouldn’t be bothered, i mean thry throw the term “alpha male” all the time

Oh wait, i think the solution is to just use man/woman unless you’re in a very biological discussion

And useful to let you know if a post is actually genuine/useful, or something you should probably ignore and disregard because everyone else that read it before you discarded it as bad

no it must only be for content farming

okay but you make posts with the expectation they are public. Votes only change a number, and are a way for you to show support/disagreement for something without broadcasting it to everyone.

If you want to broadcast it and make it public you can reply to a comment

(at least on Sync) if you go in settings > filters, you can hide posts by certain keywords

Why not use the calculator app?

And if you stop helping Ukraine and it runs out of resources, what do you think will happen?

Russia will see this and be like: “oh sorry Ukraine i’ll continue when you are rich”

I dislike war as much as the next guy but I also dislike the idea of Russia taking over Ukraine. And Poland. And Moldova. And any other former USSR state

With this attitude there is no way in hell you should or could be the leading authority on human conversation.

It’s called social anxiety. I’m so sorry someone being anxious is inconvenient to you.

Have you considered not commenting?

okay but in 3d space you are open from more sides, in terraria at least you can see those 2 sides, in minecraft theres always behind, above, and to the sides

Assumption on ny part. After careful consideration I think I was in the wrong in my comment

No, it’s just saying adult books have heavy topics sometimes

If I say i think apples suck im not necessarily shaming people that eat apples

i’ve had the opposite experience. Vegan substitutes here for example are wayy more expensive than the meat counterparts, or they’re straight up trash. And cooking anything nutritious enough is by itself expensive enough, irregardless if its meat or vegan

just a few more years of animal torture, as a treat. Can anyone help me understand why it would take so long for a ban to happen?

I don’t think OOP wanting to leave Israel will harm the struggle of the community. Plus, who is saying they can’t help the cause by being alive and doing things in Europe/Canada/US?

Another thing to consider is that someone fighting for a cause they don’t believe in might do more harm to the cause than good.

holy shit that’s cool

huh, interesting, do you have any examples of this?
