Exactly. There are so many who don't like tofu. Like my mother in-law, who just took a bite of raw tofu and came to the conclusion it's not for her. Yeah, no shit.
My wife and I then spent some time serving her various recipes, where tofu is one of the main ingredients. And now she likes it.

I like, what my wife says about tofu: it's like a blank canvas. You have to paint it with spices and various cooking methods to make it beautiful.

Another comparison are Mozzarella cheese or noodles. Bland and boring on their own, but great in combination with sauces and spices.

... Now I wan't to eat the "scrambled tofu", my wife sometimes cooks. It's fucking delicious.

Zacryon ,

FYI: the packaging is not edible.

Zacryon ,

No.

Zacryon ,

No.

Zacryon ,

So? Did I miss something?

Zacryon ,

Okay. Thanks for the useless explanation.

Zacryon ,

Those plebs are called terrorists now.

With an energy conversion efficiency of usually 75 to 80 % they are really efficient and don't have as much energy loss as other types of energy storage. It's a simple, but powerful concept and I find it beautiful. However, there is some concern regarding their impact on the local ecosystem. Not only do they need huge water reservoirs, which are artificially created and therefore might impact nearby rivers and even fish migration, but the way they are sealed with concrete or asphalt also disallows the development of riparian vegetation. From an ecological perspective they are basically dead zones.

Still, considering several alternatives, I think it's one of the better options. Although it's not cheap to build those, which is a problem in our current capitalitic society

Zacryon ,

German police are surely not angles and they need an independent control institution like in denmark. But to speak of "state repression" is a wild exaggeration.

Zacryon ,

Yes yes. Germans are still Nazis. Alright. Never gets old that one.

Zacryon ,

I especially liked the thing at the end.

Zacryon ,

To be fair, you don't need a very huge 3D printer for that, if you divide it into a lot of smaller parts which can be assembled later.

Idk, if we can already print steel though and whether we can make it structually sufficiently stable.

Zacryon ,

Hahahaha absolutely. :D
The difference is, that they come from a 3D printer and that's cool.

Zacryon ,

Thanks for looking and providing a bit of insight!

Zacryon ,

Thank you for the links!

Zacryon ,

No.

  1. It's opt-in in my country.
  2. I fear that medical personnel will give up on me way too easily and early if they know that I am a donor. Or that it's even rooted in malicious intent.
Zacryon ,

You get AI tools shoved down your throat everywhere nowadays. Whether you want it and it's useful or not.

Zacryon ,

It's not just text generating AI, like those transformer models, but also image classificators and generators, time series predictors, and a bunch of other stuff you get.

But yes, even though you seem not to like it, it is AI.

Copilot is no more “intelligent” than Clippy from Microsoft Bob in 1995.

I can't share that experience.

It just appears to be to people who also have low intelligence.

That's a bit condescending, don't you think?

Zacryon ,

A lot of stuff can be made a lot cheaper than it's sold.

Zacryon ,

You can have those arm handles at the ends of benches without being dividers, accommodating both, people with movement problems and homeless people who need a spot to sleep.

Zacryon ,

Most people sleep at night. Pregnant and people with movement impairments are usually not met at night.

Zacryon ,

That's not what I said. But you do you. If you feel better that way, go for it. Idk if that's legal though. Maybe ask nicely beforehand. :)

Zacryon ,

You are absolutley right. Wouldn't it be a great idea then to build more benches or fight causes for homelessness in general instead of shooing some away from some benches?

Zacryon ,

I'm on the fence about hearings birds singing. It is really annoying to get woken up way too early by a bird who just knows two tunes and sings it over and over and over again. Like what the fuck?! Didn't they teach you a third tune at bird school to make your song a bit more melodic and less irritating? Fucking twitter.

Zacryon ,

I think you got your timing wrong. The first prototype of cultured meat was presented 2013 and costed about 250.000 € back then. "Minus scaling up" was and is a pretty big issue.

Capitalism – in it's current form, a system where some exploit others in order to make profit.

Zacryon ,

That's also what I meant by capitalism "in it's current form". Yes. ^^

Zacryon ,

Oh shit. My pollen allergy in spring is a death trap.

US sues Apple for illegal monopoly over smartphones ( www.theverge.com )

The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general accused Apple of operating an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market in a new antitrust lawsuit. The DOJ and states are accusing Apple of driving up prices for consumers and developers at the expense of making users more reliant on its iPhones.

Zacryon , (edited )

What? Unbelievable. I'm shocked. Shocked, I say. This really comes as a surprise. I would've never expected this. No one would have seen this coming. This is really outrageous. They are innocent. I can't comprehend this. No way! It's not acceptable! /i

– Apple Fan, probably (without the irony flag then)

Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone ( lemmy.world )

I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they're on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can't be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?...

Zacryon ,

They just fuck with Kenyans. And that's obviously okay, because they are not part of the western nations. /s

Zacryon ,

Aaand there goes another service again, which I've never used and now will probably never even think about using.

Neoliberal adaptation ( lemmy.dbzer0.com )

If the Twitter/X thing teaches you one thing, let it be this: Twitter was a neoliberal place. Then Elon Musk made it into X, a fascist place. Once again, neoliberalism laid the foundations of fascism. But that’s not the (whole) lesson… Neoliberal folks are still using X, calling it Twitter to make themselves feel better, and...

Zacryon ,

Twitterix

Zacryon ,

Even if it were true, I wouldn't care. If russia does shit, they will have to eat it themselves.

Zacryon ,

In international standard SI units that's about 113 kg.

Zacryon ,

Kilonewton? That would be a force and not a mass. For mass the standard unit is (kilo)grams.

Zacryon ,

If you use a scale, the force acting upon the mass is calculated out such that you get a mass displayed.

Zacryon ,

I see. Okay. Didn't know that.

Zacryon ,

Depends on the scale and how it accommodates for the gravitational acceleration.

Zacryon ,

Don't have friends. Problem solved.

Zacryon ,

Thanks a lot for linking the source!

Time efficiency in a modern urban area optimized for public transport and non-motorized transport modes compared to time efficiency in current typical urban areas, which are focused on individual motorized transport modes with severe lack of public transport:

[Fancy chart: first case left, second case right]

[Good] [Bad]

Zacryon ,

Sounds like it should keep you fit.

What kind of injuries?

Zacryon ,

Und heute wieder in "Scheiße, die jemand über ein Thema labert von dem er keine Ahnung hat."

Warum sind so viele Idioten in Machtpositionen? Meh.

Zacryon ,

Maybe someone should tell them.

Zacryon ,

Looked like a photo on first glance.

Also Disney ruined me. Having that song now in my head...

Zacryon ,

Doors do not always lead to where you might expect.

Zacryon ,

Is that a campfire on the riverside on the left?

Zacryon ,

You also pay fees to GEMA if you buy a writable CD or USB or other forms of data storage, because you could potentially use it to store music on it. It's included in the price. This also affects devices with which you could transfer the data on the storage medium.

Don't believe me?
