Cleaning also takes less time, especially if you include all the planning that goes into cooking. Then if you consider the amount of time it'd take for the same meal to be made by other members of the household, you start to see that cleaning is actually a bargain. You also have to remember that even when you enjoy cooking, it is stil exhausting. They have less energy to clean than those who didn't cook.

Obviously there is a limit. If the cook is making an excessive mess due to doing some particularly fancy cooking out of ambition, they should probably help out. But if you regularly reap the benefits of someone else's skill in the kitchen, yes, you should help clean.

The idea was solid, but execution was poor. Super fast pacing, storyline is very predictable and basically all development of the characters is told not shown. They basically choose to have the main conflict be magically resolved instead of writing a resolution. What really shines is the animation. The humor is pretty solid too. There's a better version of this movie, but it's not the version we got.

They likely can't buy shelter with a fiver or whatever you decide to give them either. The truth is that charities, food banks, and churches are much better equipped to supply the homeless with what they need because it isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, which is why I donate to those organizations instead of trying to hand out money.

Let's also be real: not wanting to enable addictions is not about policing morality. It's about harm prevention. The drugs and alcohol they may buy with your money is likely to do more harm than good in a very practical sense and has nothing to do with my personal beliefs.

At the end of the day, your money won't help them a majority of the time. Offering food or supplies gives them the opportunity to tell me what they need short term rather than me guessing or leaving things up to chance. Long term solutions are provided by other organizations, and your money is better spent there.

Every time I've looked into it, most advice I've gotten was that it's not a good idea.

Just cook your rice with less water. Achieves a very similar effect.

there is simply no dirt on her

Listen, I'm backing the Harris campaign 100%, but if you look at the history of San Francisco area politicians, you will see that very few are "clean." I would not be surprised if it was the same for her.

plenty of it doesn’t come from a company doing lousy stuff like this

So you only play indie games? Because that's basically the only way you avoid "companies doing lousy stuff."

I mean, I'm not exactly giving FF a pass here but rewarded is factually incorrect considering FF was paid to do the gig. The show wasn't some free pat on the back for the execs doing such a great job.

Personally I do not let internet trends affect my behavior out in the real world. Why is that? Because if I use the term "short king" anywhere in the real world, 99% of people won't know what I'm talking about. Until you hear a real person say it (that means not on lemmy, not on twitter, not on dating apps, etc. or people you meet through these platforms) you can assume that there is no real impact to be had there. I think we give way too much credit to the internet for affecting real life trends. Most people don't care about these cute terminologies people come up with, and neither should you. The term was made to get someone attention, not to make short people feel better.

Depends on how much energy it takes. If it takes more resources than it frees, then I'd say it is not worth it.

AUR is also not supported on Arch, so support has nothing to do with it.

TBH, I think I dislike it only slightly less than reddit. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of the fediverse and what not. However, I see a lot of posts around here saying that lemmy is so much better than reddit, but I don't necessarily agree. Culturally I see a lot of the same behavior between the two. The main difference is there are a lot less "Facebook-like" posts and way more tech nerd-centric opinions. I would even argue that there is a lack of cultural balance. Like most of the people here are extremists in one way or the other (this includes me), and there are less "normal" people. I think this is probably what some of the users here actually want because they thirst for the "good ol' days" of forums before some of nerd culture leaked into the mainstream, but I'm not sure it's my cup of tea. Furthermore something that is sort of both a feature and a downside is that there is way less content here for obvious reasons. It's nice not to have an endless feed, but again, due to cultural imbalance, there isn't much variety. I love using linux, but I don't know if I care to have my feed engulfed by it. I'm not sure if the time I spend in Lemmy is really a net positive, just like how reddit felt. I'd say the most positive aspect of reddit was I could subscribe to a city specific subreddit and actually get news and info that is useful to my day to day life, whereas the info here is just useful for keeping me in my house or absorbed in work.

Please do not tell me to suck it up and contribute my own content. The point of this comment is not to get the community to "fix" lemmy for me but simply to relay an observation.
