I love it!
Thank you. I think you're right. It must be so nice to be able to have a family one can love.
I love your username btw
See, this is what people say, but now that I've been reading labels I don't believe it.
For example, I cannot eat Kellogg's Rice Krispies, but some off brands are made with a different formula that doesn't include gluten and is manufactured in a safe environment.
Conversely, I can eat Cheerios, but not most store brands, Lucky Charms but not most store brands, etc.
And that's just cereal! Even drugs vary wildly. Sure, the active ingredients are the same, but the other contents can really vary.
Some foods have similar ingredients, but are either manufactured on shared equipment with wheat and dairy, or not.
I now believe that most store brands are made in a unique environment. I'm open to being convinced otherwise, but if you need more examples, I can check my cupboard and tell you all kinds of things!
Some people in this thread make me wonder how centrists and status quo defenders manage to find their way into a leftist meme forum 😂
My provider claims generics can have different fillers and such. The active ingredients have to be the same, though.
If I really wanted to be sure, I'd ask a pharmacist.
They're not. I have celiac, and I've learned from reading labels that they often have completely different ingredients/manufacturing conditions.
They're not QC rejects, but they're also not the same thing repackaged.
I was in the same situation. I started to walk and longboard every day and track my calories without exception.
Eventually, you can see changes and it becomes easier over time, but oh boy I never shame anyone for their body size, because it's hella hard, and if you're coping with other problems like depression or addiction, it's gotta feel damn near impossible.
Walled garden. Big tech destroys everything it touches. We need to keep any for-profit entity out.
Wrong on all accounts. It is the hierarchical system and the state that exacerbate bigotry.
False. Provide evidence before you make such a claim. This is a lie used to silence progressives, leftists, and post-leftists, because what we say makes you uncomfortable.
But it's not the only alternative to authoritarianism
Tell that to the people this post is about. Also, as you have mentioned, the current system allows this. The majority of people could support ICE, and it would still be inequitable and oppressive. The majority may oppose returning land to tribal control, but it is still colonization and genocide.
Only ideologies like Anarchism preclude this, since they by definition oppose such hierarchies and don't rely on a glacially slow system that winks while people suffer.
It doesn't matter what the majority want. Often, the majority want to harm other people. If you don't believe me, then you haven't heard from enough American liberals who will make batshit claims such as this being the best system in the world or that they "have no other choice" but to force oppression and genocide as long as it's sanctioned by the law.
Clearly, this is not a good system. Never has been.

Is there a way that someone can test for this at home? It seems troubling that children had to be poisoned before any action was taken.
I left beehaw because I was being targeted by a user using gaslighting and lies.
When I responded to this user (I will admit, too strongly), the mods removed my comments, but left his initial lies and gaslighting up, even though I had reported them (and even messaged one of the admins directly -- it was actually a beehaw admin's actions against my comments.) To be clear, I understood the removal of my comments, but I did not understand why the user's lies and rudeness against me still remained.
I mentioned tumblr because it was where the information I was sharing had initiated, and I encouraged people to take the discussion there, since a productive discussion was no longer possible here. I never said I was moving there myself.
I then removed the rest of my comments and posts on beehaw.
I was already on tumblr, so I didn't "move from" Beehaw to there. I was also already on this account, so nor did I move here -- I was already here all along, where I've had no similar problems.
He was compelled by law to continue the wall
...because "he was just following the law" and "he was just following orders" famously excuse human rights abuses and other atrocities
People who tell me the anti-trans anti-POC laws in my state are good actually because the majority support them. People who treat people as pawns in an electoral campaign.
So tired of people like that.
Update: Examples found within the thread! I don't even need to link to examples of this happening. They're right here!
Capitalism and its consequences have been a disaster for the human anus
When I try using the normal way in Windows 10, it throws an error. I have some videos I uploaded to a YouTube channel a long time ago, and I'd like to share them, but first I need to remove the metadata.
The normal way I do this for images is to right click and select "Remove Properties and Personal Information," but when I try to do this with an mp4, it doesn't succeed. I've checked the security settings to make sure I have full control over this file, which I do, but it seems impossible to remove this metadata. I've tried saving-as using VLC and even tried within different folders, but nothing works.
Surely there must be a tool to remove metadata from a mp4 just as there is with an image, but none of my searches have been helpful. I'd much appreciate it if anyone can help!
This is very troubling, and I'm not even sure where to start. I recently received an email message from my ISP which alerted me to an incoming update. I didn't worry too much since this is obviously not the first update they've ever pushed through.
However, after this update, I noticed that my guest connections and some other things had changed / disappeared. I logged on to my router, and I immediately noticed my custom password had been reset to the default. No problem, I entered it.
At this point, I saw that all of my options were greyed out. I could change the password, which I did, but nothing else. I immediately called my ISP.
I was told that I would have to use their app now, so as much as I dislike using proprietary phone apps, I conceded and installed the app through the Play store.
However, the agent was not entirely honest with me. I still can't bifurcate my 2.4g and 5g connections, nor can I add or remove any guest connections. I immediately enabled "privacy mode" via the app, which purportedly prevents information from being collected by something called "HomePass," and I "Delete[d] Guard events" whatever the hell that means, but this seems really troubling. I can no longer access my modem/router settings via the normal interface, but have to use an Android app?
There is only one other ISP in my area. They have much worse/slower service, but should I switch, or is this just the "new normal"? Does what I'm describing even make sense? I'm not a tech expert, but I feel like I've self-taught myself how to navigate these settings, and learned from others in online forums, but now ... an Android app?
I'd appreciate any advice. I'd even be willing to purchase my own modem/router instead of using the one from my ISP, if that fixes this mess.
Edit: So I need my own router, at least. I did some research, and these are the ones I can get locally that are within my budget:
-
TP-Link Archer AC1900 Dual-Band Mu-Mimo Wi-Fi Router with Gigabit Port
-
Linksys AC1200 Dual Band WiFi 5 Router
-
TP-Link Archer AX1500 WiFi 6 Dual-Band Wireless Router | up to 1.5 Gbps Speeds
-
TP-Link Archer C54 | AC1200 MU-MIMO Dual-Band WiFi Router
-
NETGEAR - Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Router, 1.9Gbps (R6900) I’VE BEEN WARNED AGAINST NETGEAR THOUGH IN OTHER FORUMS
-
TP-Link | AX1800 4 Stream Dual-Band WiFi 6 Wireless Router | up to 1.8 Gbps Speeds
-
TP-Link Archer AX3000 | 4 Stream Dual-Band WiFi 6 Wireless Router | up to 3 Gbps Speeds
-
Linksys E7350 AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Router
Am I right in thinking the TP-Link AX3000 is best?
Edit 2: At first, I bought the Netgear AC1900, which seemed like a great deal. Turns out it was unusable without creating a netgear account, so I returned it in exchange for the TP-Link Archer AX1500, and it appears to be working! I got everything set up pretty close to the way it was before, except even better.
Once I save money, I'll also invest in a different modem and return this one to my ISP.
This was a big wake-up call for me in terms of privacy. I never listened to people saying not to use your ISP's equipment because I always trusted my ISP (it's not one of the big name ones). Never trust a company. Lesson learned. I appreciate all the responses I got! This community is great!

I know this isn't much, but I just discovered this community and wanted to post a thing
I installed Bitwarden from F-Droid, but I happened to notice yesterday that Bitwarden was in my list of apps with updates available from Play Store, even though I installed it via F-Droid. Why would that be?
I know this is a better question for the Bitwarden forums, but I don't have enough street cred there to make a post.
I came across it when I was looking for an alternative to imgur back when imgur wasn't playing nice with uBlock Origin on mobile for a while.
I know imgbb is more privacy oriented, but in my experience imgchest is easier to navigate, especially on mobile.
I'm not promoting the site, just curious if anyone else has tried it since I rarely see images linked from there, and if not what's your favorite alternative to imgur?
I've been thinking about this because I'm trying to avoid uploading images directly to the server here.
