Ah, yes, because self hosting is feasible for everyone

/s if that’s not obvious

Single point of failure and a separate entity has all of your passwords and you have to continue paying them or lose access to everything. Sounds like a terrible idea to me

Fuck the Pinkertons

Also I’m not gonna look it up to confirm but that ketoacidosis explanation sounds like a grave misunderstanding of what it is.

Honestly not sure how I should respond to this. I’d rather you either research it yourself and call me out or simply nod and follow along. But you chose this weird middle ground.

On the flip side, you require a steady supply of glucose into your cells to live.

Gluconeogenesis is a thing, go look it up. Again, you’re doing these half-assed “gotchas” without doing any research of your own

Just Works™ technology has a lot of value (assuming the thing does in fact just work).

And that assumption is unfounded in Apple’s case. My parents have constant issues with their iPhones that you would never get on Android. But my mom is convinced that it’s easier to use than Android despite never having tried Android

Sugar is also acidic. Not enough to kill you, but that’s why ketoacidosis kills people. It also increases blood viscosity, making it pump harder and causing hypertension. Plus, it causes chronic inflammation, which calcifies triglycerides in your blood to form clots.

Sugar has tons of negative effects.

Proton as a service provider is still safe despite their CEO being a political twit.

That twit was allowed to use the company’s Mastodon account to double-down on his shitty political post

The wealthy Romans deliberately added lead to their wine to make it sweeter

Also significantly fewer roaches. In my experience they’re more common in the south due to the warmer weather

Pathfinder 2e literally has bioluminescence bombs that’s just jarred firefly juice that’s secreted by humanoid fey that resemble the bugs

It’s also humans continually expanding and building in previously undeveloped areas. It crowds out other species.

30 years ago it didnt matter if you raked your leaves because there were still plenty of areas for lightning bugs to migrate in from. But when everyone’s surrounded by miles of suburbs the lightning bugs have further to go for you to see them

Then the owners can cash out

Not only that, Kodansha is ridiculously money-grubbing in the space. They’re continually trying to push for pay-per-chapter monetization instead of a basic subscription model like Shonen Jump does.

Not only that, Kodansha’s newest app, KManga, has 21 trackers in it to sell off user data. For context, Facebook only has 9 trackers.

Fun fact, turtle racing is/was a thing. And it uses painted turtles

Don’t forget onion

Tangential fact: syphillis originated in the Americas, likely from llamas. It’s the only instance of a transmittable disease to be imported to the old world.

This also makes me a bit annoyed at the show 'Apothecary Diaries" as it depicts syphillis existing in China in the 700AD

Same. I gave Tunic a fair shot until I had to use a guide to get further due to the devs cheaply hiding a teleport gate in the map. Plus the spirit gauntlet was its own bit of bs

We know she’s over 1000, and Kraft said that she’s young
