Given that the point of lab grown meat is to stand in for butchered meat, I think it’s fair to assume they’ll target the same taste/texture. Honestly, what’s even the point of the discussion without that premise baked in?

4 people vs one *

Unironically yes

Private Equity–Backed Firm Bowlero Is Ruining Bowling ( jacobin.com )

For the most part, Bowlero doesn’t build its own centers. Instead, it purchases existing ones and makes them over in the Bowlero style: dim lights, loud music, expensive cocktails. At Bowleros, bowling isn’t bowling. It’s “upscale entertainment.”...

ieatpillowtags ,

They aren’t turning it into the top golf of bowling though, they’re charging more for worse service.

ieatpillowtags ,

So you aren’t familiar with first past the post voting? Here’s a hint, it’s “how voting works” in this country.

ieatpillowtags ,

What’s the matter, English not your first language? They miss that particular idiom in your training?

ieatpillowtags ,

Imagine making a statement like this while also calling us ”state department“ and “nsa”.

Take your lies and hypocrisy elsewhere.

In China, where authoritarianism is justified by redefining the term, a woman has reportedly been beaten to death during interrogation after accusing police of murdering her husband ( dominotheory.com )

The reason behind the husband's death is equally uncertain, except to say that he died in prison in East Turkestan (Xinjiang) when serving a sentence for the “crime” of accessing overseas websites, one of six men from the same village to leave this world in similar circumstances....

There is no war in ba sing se…

The tankies never take long to try and distract or deflect from any negative news about China…

Turns out, you can be outraged about human rights violations wherever they happen! Feel free to post your articles about all the Americans arrested and killed for “accessing overseas media” lol.

ieatpillowtags ,

LOL another tankie classic. Everyone who doesn’t accept my narrative is a nazi!

You’re mixing up your talking points though, the nazi defense is supposed to be used to defend Russian imperialist aggression towards Ukraine, not for china. Boy is your handler going to be upset with you!

ieatpillowtags ,

Sanctions that China also voted for, making this irrational and illogical behavior, in addition to being dangerous and provocative.

ieatpillowtags ,

Yes

ieatpillowtags ,

Well that fence just wasn’t strong enough!

ieatpillowtags ,

Superior in what way? Compared to crappy old coil based stoves, maybe, but electric can easily outperform gas in terms of heat output. You can boil a pot of water in like half the time of a gas stove using induction, and cheaper non induction models are at least comparable.

ieatpillowtags ,

And when your gas filled home explodes, killing firefighters and damaging all of your neighbors property? Is that cool too? Because that just happened a few months ago near me.

ieatpillowtags ,

Well it wasn’t bothering me before, but it sure is now!

ieatpillowtags ,

Sure, and is that what they voted to criminalize? Or was it actually just criticism of the state of Israel?

ieatpillowtags ,

I don’t think the point is that it’s ok. More like “don’t feed the troll”, as there isn’t a real conversation to be had with someone looking to cause drama.

Baltimore battles ship owners’ effort to limit liability in bridge collapse ( www.nbcnews.com )

The city said the companies’ effort to limit responsibility for the vessel and the cargo’s value to $43.6 million is “substantially less than the amount that will be claimed for losses and damages” arising out of the Dali’s collision with the Key Bridge....

ieatpillowtags ,

You’ll be downvoted again, but it’s more that you’re an ass than your being wrong. I’m going to go out on a limb and guess you were being a dick last time too.

ieatpillowtags ,

You’re going to allow one of them to be president, so no it’s not false. Throwing your vote away on a third party is equivalent to not voting.

ieatpillowtags ,

Wow you really got him, great rebuttal.

ieatpillowtags ,

He’s obviously arguing in bad faith, I wouldn’t bother.

ieatpillowtags ,

I know you are but what am I?

Jails banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls as part of a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with prison phone companies ( arstechnica.com )

Across the United States, hundreds of jails have eliminated in-person family visits over the last decade. Why has this happened? The answer highlights a profound flaw in how decisions too often get made in our legal system: for-profit jail telecom companies realized that they could earn more profit from phone and video calls if...

ieatpillowtags ,

Or it’s one of the Russians paid to sow discord across social media platforms, same as they’ve been doing since 2016 at least.

ieatpillowtags ,

Why didn’t you?

ieatpillowtags ,

Any fool who sits this election out would be responsible if trump wins, it’s just so-called leftists on lemmy are currently being vocal about it.

Of course most self proclaimed leftists on this site are somehow just fine with dictators as long as they agree that “America bad”, so obviously they’re arguing in bad faith.

ieatpillowtags ,

Refreshingly honest take I suppose, less exhausting than the bad faith arguments all over lemmy from people like you.

Please, for the love of God, VOTE! ( pawb.social )

I don't like Biden either, but anyone with half a brain knows there are two choices in the 2020 election. If we had a sane voting system, voting third party might be worth it, but as it stands, no one but you knows your favorite candidate exists and unless you want to become their campaign manager that will still be true in...

ieatpillowtags ,

It’s a sad state of affairs, but as of now what other choice is there?

ieatpillowtags ,

You’re a fool if you think that “nothing will change” under trump. You think you’ll have a better chance affecting change after we slide even further towards fascism? You think lgbt and poc aren’t going to be persecuted even more?

ieatpillowtags ,

Oh hey the tankies are here

ieatpillowtags ,

The UN can’t “step in” regardless, plus we let the cease fire resolution pass this time so if they could step in we’re not blocking it.

ieatpillowtags ,

See you’re just being factually incorrect now.

ieatpillowtags ,

Yes he would in fact genocide harder, maybe you should pay attention to what he says.

Facebook snooped on users' Snapchat traffic in secret project, documents reveal ( techcrunch.com )

Meta tried to gain a competitive advantage over its competitors, including Snapchat and later Amazon and YouTube, by analyzing the network traffic of how its users were interacting with Meta’s competitors. Given these apps’ use of encryption, Facebook needed to develop special technology to get around it....

ieatpillowtags ,

How is this a relevant question? Nobody said anything about some governing body. There have been discussions on many instances about whether to federate with them or not, and it’s accurate to say that some people think we should.

ieatpillowtags ,

🙄

ieatpillowtags ,

The issue is not her stint in politics, but rather her election denialism and attacks on journalists.

But feel free to explain your point if you have one.

Biden vows to reopen Baltimore port, rebuild collapsed Key Bridge ( thehill.com )

President Biden vowed Tuesday to rebuild Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge after it collapsed into the water when a cargo ship rammed into it, echoing what some Maryland officials said earlier but adding that he expects the federal government to foot the bill....

ieatpillowtags ,

Nah you’re full of shit, I’ve seen you around.

ieatpillowtags ,

See there you go again with your weird fucking posts, who are you even talking to? You’re having a conversation with yourself and trying to stir shit up. Very inauthentic behavior.

ieatpillowtags ,

You can just say, “I don’t have any valid points to make, sorry bye” instead of this absolutely pathetic comment. Talk about bad faith…

ieatpillowtags ,

You already decided you don’t actually want to talk about the issues. Go take your feckless whining elsewhere.

ieatpillowtags ,

Oh look it’s his partner in crime, I’ve seen you doing the same. Sow your dissent elsewhere.

ieatpillowtags ,

What was this? All I can find is the 2005 killing of an innocent man after the subway bombings.

ieatpillowtags ,

I guess you didn’t spend that time reading articles before you link them. They all contradict you by the way. Key point is that “withholding rate” is not the same as “tax rate”.

Bonuses are 100% taxed the same as the rest of your wages.

ieatpillowtags ,

So why haven’t you given all of your possessions to those who have less?

ieatpillowtags ,

I see you don’t understand how Congress works. You see, in America we don’t have a dictator who can do whatever the fuck he wants. I know things may be different where you’re from.

ieatpillowtags ,

Nobody is talking about impeachment, you picked the wrong script. Talk to your boss and get the latest talking points.

ieatpillowtags ,

The piss comment is a reference to an American idiom. I guess they missed that one in your training.
