  • If you want to spend the time and effort to practice that technique, go for it. But the benefits don’t really make it worth it for most people.

    into the habit of a good technique means you’ll be fine even when you’re tired or distracted

    The technique described in the image is not the only “good technique”. A person could reasonably develop their own “good technique” simply by being cognizant of their cutting.


  • The chopping technique is not really that necessary. It’s great for chopping lots of veggies at speed, but if you’re just cutting veggies for a single meal then there’s not that much benefit unless you’re already highly practiced and that’s your default.

    What’s far more important is just being cognizant for each cut you make. Walk don’t run.









  • You’re literally in denial of the definition of words.

    Trump is a felon, a rapist, and a liar among other things. If you don’t acknowledge that he’s a scumbag while you give him an expression of approval then it makes it seem you approve of the person overall. If there was something Trump did right and people wanted to talk about that, then it would be pretty simple to say something like “Trump sucks, but…” That’s not a crazy expectation and that’s not “tribal toxic bullshit”.

    Imagine if someone was saying something like “It’s nice that John Wayne Gacy participated in fundraisers and entertained the children” or “Thanks to Jeffery Dahmer for his military service” without acknowledging the horrible things they did.



  • I already mentioned this elsewhere, but he did praise Trump and platform him, then he praised the Republican party saying they are the party of “the little guys” (small business), which is just flat out wrong. He does not acknowledge that there are an abundance of things Trump is doing that is fucking awful and disgusting. At best it’s an extremely tone-deaf tweet. What that does do, though, is paint Trump and the Republican party in a very good light. That’s effectively an endorsement without saying it in exact words.

    Also, it’s so very obvious that anyone associated with Trump absolutely needs to abide by Trump’s every whim or else he will replace you. So, the point he was trying to make is entirely moot in the first place.

    There is just no way to praise Trump or the Republican party without showing your ignorance or alignment with them. Just like you can’t just have a little bit of shit in your food. Once you’ve got even a little bit of shit in your food, then you’ve got shit-food.


  • they invalidated the app purchases and made people buy it again to not have ads.

    Exactly. Not even a discount. I think it was even more expensive than the reddit version.

    I just checked. It’s $20 to remove ads. Wow.
    I also checked to see how much it cost for the reddit version. I paid $4 to remove ads and $5 for the “pro” version. That’s more than I’ve paid for any app. Now they want another $20 to remove ads on an app they neglect and ignore their customers? Disgusting.

    Plus their inability to update on a regular basis is kinda terrible, and has continued.

    Not just continued, but has gotten worse. Additionally, it’s even more important to update more frequently because of the more frequent changes. It was also never fully functional for Lemmy. For example, spoilers have never worked.

    To add to all that, they don’t even have the decency to pop in for a quick comment or two just to help people feel better.
