I also hate avocado.

Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet in c/cybersecurity@infosec.pub

Why didn't you tell this librarian that you'd asked another librarian and they said it was okay to plug in? Why was none of this included in the original post?

Do you trust every one-sided story to be entirely accurate of all details?

And what does trust have to do with it? Can we use Ethernet here? If the person says no, would you just walk around the building until you found a port and plugged in?

ByteDance prefers TikTok shutdown in US if legal options fail, sources say in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Not really. It depends on what it is. There are entire games and items that aren't available in the US, but make a killing in Asia.

Like, here's Genshin Impact numbers from 2023.

On that game, the US comes in at 7th, is less than half of the top country (Japan) and is notably behind Switzerland.

For Tik Tok specifically, we can look at their annual reports.

Let's look at average annual users per region. 682M in Asia Pacific, which does not include China. 192M in North America.

China's numbers are 750M daily.

I don't think most of their money comes from the US.

Just watch video footage from 9/11 while the song is playing.

USDA updates rules for school meals that limit added sugars for the first time in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 17 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Most American bread has sugar added to it, even the 'healthy' stuff.

When I was trying to switch to healthier breads, I tried a Pepperidge Farm bread once. It was so sweet, it was like eating brioche, but it was marketed as just normal standard bread. Absolutely disgusting. I don't buy that brand anymore at all.

Why would you ever divulge your master password to anyone? There's not a reason to. Even if you die, you can set for someone else to get access to your account after X number of days, all without giving your master password.

Ford recalls over 456,000 Bronco Sport and Maverick cars due to loss of drive power risk in c/news@lemmy.world

I honestly don't know why anyone would buy a Bronco.

They're completely synonymous with OJ Simpson to me.

Democratic majority in Michigan House restored with special elections in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 18 points 6 months ago

They would have to get through the Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission, which is already part of the state constitution after voters approved Proposal 18-2 in 2018.

I suppose that 13 bad actors could be randomly selected from the applications. It's not statistically impossible.

I was so happy I could get my cat off of Purina.

What is this even trying to say? Are they stealing? Are they cheating on a diet? Like, it's be your best, not be perfect at everything. Some days your best is just what it is and some days that's something else.

There's not enough context in this.
