I know my comment was low effort. I appreciate the supportive response anyway, even if it wasn't that well deserved.

Thank you.

This was a really recent realization for me. I am one of the people who can voluntarily activate the tensor tympani muscles in my ears to create a low level rumbling sound. I recently tried explaining this to someone else and they still think I am making it up.

I started a job where I don't have any access to a kitchen to warm up food. On a whim, I bought an insulated thermos to bring hot food in. I tried it for the first time yesterday, and I have to say it was so pleasant to have have an instantly ready hot meal when I stopped to have lunch.

There was a burrito shop that had a frequent customer card that you could use to earn points towards a free menu item. You could register the card online and for whatever reason you could add multiple cards to the same account.

A friend of mine realized that if you registered a new card they would give you a decent chunk of points just for signing up, then you could merge that account in with your existing account and get free points.

Every chance he got he would grab handfuls of the cards, activate them all, and get tons of free food.

Maybe killing people is the wrong solution.

I was never big on photographing my food but I found this one particularly pretty. It was over a decade ago, and I don't remember what restaurant it was. Somewhere in NYC.

Wash before using (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I just noticed the cucumbers I bought say "wash before using" not "wash before eating" and I want to believe it is a subtle joke deliberately made by the person who designed the packaging.

I found it amusing and I wanted to share it.

I find most foods are best as soon as they are made, but some things seem to get better when the flavors have more time to meld. The only two I can think of right now are chili and hummus. What other dishes am I forgetting, or haven't tried that you think get better with a little time?

Learn to fix things yourself. Mend your clothes, fix your bike or car, patch drywall, whatever. Learning to do things gives you the option of to save money doing it yourself. If you don't learn, your only option is to pay someone else to do it.

I've given up on food delivery. With the all the fees and tips and shit to wait who the hell knows how long for food to show up colder than a penguin fart.

It's just not worth it to me anymore. Why would I want to pay for that experience? I can make less disappointing food quicker for less money.

I want to replace one half of this with longer wire, but I am not confident about the name of the connector used.

I call this "pizza phone" because it looks like they are eating their phone like a slice of pizza.

Not sure if you are suggesting op gets a dog free of cost or that they should set the dog free, but I think both options are acceptable.

Harris Wolobah's cause of death is not yet determined; it's not certain if the chip is to blame.

Maybe, just maybe we should put our pitchforks away until we know if the chip mentioned is responsible?

I don't mind grabbing my pitchfork and joining the "YouTube is already ruined party", but two thoughts first:

That headline is so deliberately vague. It could literally be one employee who said "eh, I don't think YouTube shorts is a good idea".

The article itself doesn't really give you any information that isn't in the headline. It feels like an attempt to stoke anti-YouTube sentiment without providing any useful information.

...okay, with that out of the way...

Yeah, the current YouTube situation is pretty crap.
