In British supermarkets, they often don’t even put the beans on shelves. Instead they have stacked palettes of them, because they need to restock so often it’d be inefficient to have to unpack and shelve them.

I’m having fun ☹️

Spanish, is this Latin America? Because if so, then damn, the movies were correct, even the BSOD has an orange tint to it

Not a car, but I’ve got a bicycle light that does this. Turns on when it’s dark and also when you brake. So definitely possible

Leaf blowers strike me as a very American thing. People do use them here in the UK, but rarely

This is a 1922 map though, not current

Time is weird. I’ve changed things up a lot in the past few years and I’m having much more fun. The few years before that seem like nothing. But now time is simultaneously so much faster (I guess more exciting, dragging less), yet so much longer (I guess many more unique memories).

Much like the words “fake steak” or “not really steak” wouldn’t confuse me into thinking it was really real steak, just because the word “steak” is in there, “vegan steak” doesn’t either, because I’m not incredibly stupid

I’m very saddened she shows these strong hateful opinions now. The books and films were so much a part of my childhood and I still really enjoy the whole world they’ve created. And watching her earlier interviews, she seemed like a nice, interesting, smart, softly spoken person, with a love for my city. Also through indirect personal relations, she was quite kind to us.

When I was a kid and had nightmares often, I would wake up in the middle of the night in a fit of fear. I had to make sure I would stay awake just long enough that I wouldn’t go back into the same nightmare again when I went back to sleep. It wasn’t just possible, it was common

Yeah although misinformation is recently on the rise, there is that overabundance of information, I still feel like we’re in perhaps the easiest era ever for verifying facts.

In the past when I called bullshit on my friend’s factoids, there wasn’t much I could do unless I went to a library and maybe there’d be a book on it, and I’d have not much choice but to trust that book. I believed so much nonsense people told me before that I can look up and discuss on a global knowledge in my pocket now, albeit requiring skill to do properly though

What are those crazy power sockets with so many pins and two different types right next to each other?!

I’ve seen many pretty small waterfalls though, how do you count this‽

That’s a bit misleading to say like that. Go to the website, scroll to the footer and click on “Legal”. Your instance, feddit.de, has a legal notice, with a privacy contact person, mentioning you can request data erasure, and detailing where your data goes. Mine, lemmy.world, has a number of in depth legal documents attached there.

However, yes, other instances they are federated with might not take it as seriously though, and if all your data is going there too, then that’s a hole in your data privacy.

Y is only sometimes a vowel: when it forms a vowel sound in a word.

In the case of “dry, crypt and dryly”, we could perhaps spell them “drie, cript and drielee” if we wish to see where those more familiar vowel sounds exist in those words.

== is a heathen with no rightful place except equality to null. All praise ===

Even more than 3 hours. Half life of caffeine is 6 hours in the body

Guess that settles the debate, we got to pronounce it “sequel” then to optimally match syllables
