Lemmy sure loves a circlejerk about shitting on Firefox.

I feel like mastodon is doing alright.

What would you say are your top 2-3 reasons you like it?

AND she was in a car with no cup holders. It wasn’t a standard feature in sports cars in the 90s. She had borrowed it from her son.

And you’re right that it didn’t change coffee temps that much:

“During the Liebeck court proceedings, McDonald’s said it served its coffee between 180 and 190 degrees,” according to The New York Times. “The company has refused to disclose today’s standard temperature, but Retro Report shows a handbook for franchisees calling for temperatures 10 degrees lower.”

If it doesn’t sound like much, it’s because it’s not. McDonald’s chooses to keep their coffee scaldingly hot because, according to attorney Butch Wagner, hot coffee stays fresh for longer. They save money by doing this (millions per day, in fact, across their US franchises alone), even if it means paying out for other hot coffee settlements—of which there are plenty.

I don’t have much of an idea on if it was small but the movie Sunshine (2007) comes to mind. Loved that movie. It’s well worth a watch if you haven’t seen it.

Is it worth it if you don’t have a samsung phone?

A lot more tiktok for me. Say what you will of the platform, it’s at the beginning of the enshittification spectrum and has a ton of original and interesting content.

I do use Lemmy every day too tho.

Glad to see more reporting on this. The way they swapped out Roiland’s voice in Solar Opposites was absolutely perfect, it really hasn’t lost anything imo.

He probably gets off from that.

Thanks for the heads up! Bit out of my price range though.

The mayo tip that comes to mind that is not mentioned is to use Kewpie mayo. It’s just better than other mayo I’ve used (but Duke’s is good too). I didn’t know until I just looked it up now but it has some MSG (good thing) and uses egg yolks. I picked some up at Costco and I’m fully converted.

Republicanism has long been about recasting selfishness as a virtue.

Great line

What the fuck I thought Super PACs were not allowed to coordinate with the candidate…right? …right? It’s paying his fucking legal bills how is that not a violation? Oh that’s right because it’s a fucking corrupt bullshit concept. The supreme court’s awful Citizens United ruling completely fucked over this country.

Yow, they must be doing well their whole website is sold out

As with many things there’s not a clear cut answer. I think you could make a strong case for the Katy Freeway expansion being a failure where those resources would have been better spent on other forms of transportation. I’d agree that adding lanes is not always a bad idea, but blindly adding lanes like the US has done for decades has not been a good thing overall, imo. We’re dependent on cars for everything, they’re heating up the planet and they’re a very inefficient solution to the ultimate problem of getting people from point A to B. I’m not so much anti-car as anti-inefficient travel that has saddled us with tons of negative aspects to city life.

What does modernizing highway infrastructure even mean? I don’t think you could call adding more lanes “modernizing” if you’re being serious. That’s been the blind answer for years but adding more lanes does not solve congestion/demand/whatever you want to call it. It’s not an efficient way to solve the transportation problem. You spend a ton of resources (punishing people bulldozing neighborhoods or with noise pollution, destroying nature, etc) and you still have the same ultimate problem you did before you started, people traveling slowly in a pollution emitting vehicle. So doing both is not even the point when one side of the equation (adding lanes) is a very poor solution. Focus on better solutions like public transportation reaching more people.

Yeah I mean you’re kind of just re-framing point. Yes the mega highway has the ability to move more cars, but still the end result after 5 years is it’s actually taking longer to move cars than before (at peak travel time). So what if it’s due to induced demand, we just want to solve the problem of getting people from point A to B, and adding more lanes is a very inefficient transportation method. It’s a massive waste of resources when moving around in a car is so costly compared to public transit.
