Don’t worry bro, I voted them back up for you. Except the Peter Griffnyn one, I downvoted that too.

Wtf??

How is national socialism a mask for capitalism?

I love the concept of this book but was pretty disappointed by the actual recipes tbh.

Yeah, tofu by itself can be very boring, but it really shines with the right spices or marinade. The simplest way to make tofu that still tastes great is to cut it up, put the pieces in a container with a tablespoon of soy sauce and some Sriracha (amount depending on your chili tolerance), and shake the container. Then you can use it in many ways, for example by placing it on something that is releasing a lot of steam, like rice that is almost done cooking.

So they were proven right, got a lunch, and paid nothing… The conclusion is that there is a free lunch.

Very interesting, thank you.

Even NDS games should be pretty playable on a phone. Give Heart Gold/Soul Silver a try if you’ve missed it, they’re the best Pokémon games.

Thanks, I didn’t know that was an option. But these easier ways of blocking can be reversed within seconds, right? I need something that is difficult to undo.

Thanks, I needed that post. I’m in a similar boat. I get addicted to this stuff (YT, lemmy, reddit etc.) easily, and I’ve found that a moderate use is just not possible for me in the long run. It can’t really coexist in my life with leisure activities that require me to sustain my attention for longer, like reading, practicing an instrument, or even just sitting down and listening to a good album intently.

What helps me a bit is putting all kinds of hindrances in place:

• storing my phone in a drawer and only taking it out when I want to do something specific
• not having my router always running, but only turning it on when I want to use the wifi for something specific
• browser extensions to block certain sites
• using screen time limits in the Android settings
• rooting my phone and blocking addictive sites in my hosts file (unfortunately I only found out afterwards that subdomains (*) like m.youtube.com aren’t blocked by blocking the main sites like youtube.com and now I can’t add them to the blacklist without much effort)
• (similar solutions for my laptop)

But none of that has worked as much as I’d like. It’s a constant struggle and I’m still looking for a better solution.

Doing interesting stuff has somehow in my mind turned into work.

That’s the worst part. Scroll too much and that state becomes your new baseline. Now anything that is less captivating and effortless than that feels difficult.

(*) I’m not sure if subdomain is the correct term here. If anyone knows, please correct me.

Too real

Of which sugars:

It’s a “Büromöbel” (office furniture) company.

Honest question: if a person living in the west in the 21st century thinks they should have the right to take people of a different race as their own personal slaves, do you think there is no basis to call this person immoral? The best we can do is say that this person is incompatible with the time and place they are in?

The very fact that they’re able to do all of this is also an effect of the mitochondria in their cells. But if people tell me to stop talking about mitochondria 24/7, then I should just find a group of other mitochondria enthusiasts to interact with instead of ranting about how I’m ““right”” to make everything about mitochondria.

who remakes the exact same meme immediately after it was just posted? I thought this place was supposed to be better than Reddit.
