Baking paper is also available in pre cut rolls. Just pull square out of the roll, and start using it. No need to cut anything.

Fancy plastic film comes with a small metal blade that travels on a plastic rail. It cuts the film very smoothly when compared to any other option I’ve seen anywhere.

Cutting aluminum foil is a bit different. Which side of the box has the serrations? Use that edge for cutting.

Didn’t Evan Edinger just make a video about that? Sounds strangely familiar.

Fartplan 🤣

Actually, there are a few performance artists who make money but farting on stage. Sounds like they must have a plan like that.

Also, rule 35, so you can definitely find semi-professionals who focus on farting on video and posting online. I suppose they also plan their activities.

Same thing with Swedish. Gift (Swedish) = poison, venom, toxin etc.

Sounds like there must have been some colossal misunderstanding in the past.

He would still behave in a similar way, but with a lower budget. That would force him to let go of some habits, adapt in interesting ways, and learn new ways. I think it could be interesting, but it would have a radically different flavour.

Tony has amazing skills. He could make just about anything. I think there’s some story potential here.

Bruce would probably end up being a bum or a weirdo. If you like redemption arcs, the story of Bruce could be interesting.

If you made Bruce or Tony middle or lower-class people, you could still make an adventure out of that. It’s just that all of the heavy infrastructure would need to be completely rewritten. Skills and abilities would allow them to do amazing things, but they just wouldn’t have million-dollar tech at their disposal.

The character would be the same, but the story would have to take a very different path.

Oh, it’s a country specific thing then. In the past few decades, I’ve used electronic money more than physical money. Applies to salaries, cars, shopping etc. Works with small merchants too.

Wow. Never seen one of those.

The 200 € note is the rarest one. When buying a car, I’ve actually used 500 € notes a few times. I’ve seen a 200 € note only once or twice. Can’t even remember when was the last time.

People are complicated. Their motivations and actions don’t always seem consistent.

Not just modern life, but ancient too. The human mind is just full of these shortcuts, and on average, they have served the species well.

Well, let’s just pick one style of anarchy, and go with that. I don’t know any, but maybe you do.

Pick one and explain how that would work in a larger scale.

Hubristic

That’s true, and I totally agree. However, many people don’t see it that way. When someone leaves Reddit, they tend to look for a drop-in replacement.

What they find here is a smaller place with early Reddit vibes, which is good and bad at the same time. They would like to hang out in a niche community with thousands of like-minded users, but they’ll only find a community with a hundred users and two posts a month. Market share isn’t really an indicator of quality, but it does tell you something about the amount of activity.

It’s a mental shortcut, and people in general just love using those.

BTW, is it usually correct though? If at least 50% of the Spanish speakers actually are Mexican, it could justify the existence of this shortcut.

This highlights one of the main problems. Lemmy communities tend to be small or dead. With numbers like this, it’s hard to compete with Reddit.

For me at least. Never imagined what it would feel like if I had massive debt from being in prison. Now I’m beginning to understand why there’s no way out for so many.

No wonder why heroin smuggling suddenly seems so appealing.

Yikes! That’s just so messed up. Also explains a lot.
