But...but...but...that's not a magic bullet with instant gratification! We expect it to work like Amazon where we just order the thing we want and get it the next day.

Anyone who doesn't like what someone does can call it robbery. Like charging a price that is too high in someone's opinion.

But robbery in a legal sense is about property. If you dig up body in a legal cemetary, which generally means owned by some organization that runs the cemetery, that is probably real persecutable grave robbery. Elsewhere, not so much.

The words have very different origins. While I think they converged for a time, they started out different.

I use "mold" for the fungus and the tool, "mould" for composted soil.

You need to add some disclaimer to this diagram like "not to scale"...

They're "differently symmetrical."

I just used up a bag of dried dates that were a couple years past the date on the bag. They weren't noticeably different from when new. (They went into something baked so also seemed less of a big deal.)

Some brands of mayo actually say on the jar that you don't need to refrigerate them. In the fridge, I'd probably keep that 2 or 3 times longer then the jar claims it should last.

Unless stored in some unusual way, the nut oils would almost certainly have been rancid. Not very healthy for you, but wouldn't give you food poisoning. Salt can hide the taste of rancid oils.

Preferably GPS coordinates that can be fed directly to the orbital laser.

I'm not giving anyone orders, just trying to convey how ridiculously anal you have to be about it get rid of them. I went through several rounds of "surely these things will be ok, they aren't open / in a ziplock / not something it would possibly want to eat" repeatedly failing to get rid of them before finally putting EVERYTHING into glass, Tupperware or the fridge.

A flamethrower might work too.

 

So is this Thunder itself or some app it is deferring to whose config I should look at?

Basically videos start out dim for a few seconds until the video controls fade out. This means the first few seconds of every video are basically unwatchable, and with short videos this is all or most of the video. For example https://lemmy.world/post/17884719

 

Of the many Lemmy clients I've tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn't the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.
