Oh look, you’re smart enough to understand that reasoning about your ridiculous statement would undermine it. Maybe there is hope.

Sorry what exactly is it that you don’t get? That people would show empathy and help this guy out?

I mean that you’re probably confusing Delta 8 and 9. Delta 9 is the main cannabinoid in regular cannabis, it’s just regular THC.

Just to be clear “Delta 9 THC” is the “real thing”.

Delta 8 is also real but a minor cannabinoid with a milder effect.

This.

I’ll keep it in mind, every once in a while I take the time to see what’s new.

Thanks for the suggestion, but the thing is, I’m a developer and designer myself so I’m extremely picky about how things look and function, and I’m not ready yet to separate myself from an app I’ve been very happy with for a long time over a single annoyance that is probably temporary.

Well the thing is they appear to be muted from the icon on top of them, but it autoplays sound and clicking the icon (twice) doesn’t do anything.

I think I started with that before sync for lemmy came out. But I’m a long time sync user, I think I even paid for it a few years ago, and I just don’t feel anything else comes close.

I see your point, thanks for the insight! Did you base your reply on the abstract or the full article, because they do specify “vegetable” oil. Also, in their defence, they not only state that they only intended to show a correlation instead of a causal effect, and even add that:

we only found the relationship between the cooking oil type and cardiovascular health in the elderly over 65 years old in China, and could not explain the reason.

Where do you get the idea that they focus only on sesame oil?

At least these idiots agree with you. Water freezes at 30% hot!

“The 100 is hot” idea is not only completely arbitrary and human centric, but also a vague personal perception. And I’m trying to be nice because it’s actually egocentric buffoonery that stems from the idea that everything revolves around us, whereas the metric scale puts people inside a measurable scientific interconnected system instead of our feelings being the center.

We as people can perceive imperial temperatures a lot better than metric.

This is entirely the result of what you’re used to and has nothing to do with the system itself.

I don’t know, lard is pretty awesome. It’s a bit of a tradition around here to keep the remains when cooking bacon, put it in the fridge and then spread it on some bread.

Well you can find quite a few scientific studies saying exactly what I’ve said. I agree that plant based oils are not all the same though.

Just one example:

3918 of those who cooked with vegetable/gingili oil had ASCVD, and 249 of those who cooked with lard/other animal fat oils had ASCVD. The prevalence of ASCVD in vegetable/gingili oil users (31.68%) was higher than that in lard/other animal fat oil users (17.46%). Compared with lard/other animal fat users, the multivariate-adjusted model indicated that vegetable oil/sesame oil users were significantly associated with a higher risk of ASCVD (OR = 2.19; 95%CI, 1.90-2.53). Our study found that cooking with lard/other animal fat oil is more beneficial to cardiovascular health in older Chinese.

Yep, also Oreos are overrated!

That’s like ejaculating on someone’s face and then working your way to foreplay. If this isn’t against the Geneva convention it should be.

People who separate anything they eat are heathens. The proper way is to stuff bits of everything on your plate in your mouth at once for the correct taste and texture sensory overload.

You can use animal fats. There’s also evidence saying they’re healthier than plant/seed based oils because they contain more saturated fats and don’t oxidize as quickly.

Crap I’ll never be able to slide that into a casual conversation.

I did not. That’s what I alluded to in my last sentence. But I believe the bigger picture is more important and that automation is a step towards getting out of consumerism, exponential growth and job creation just to keep the bar moving, which all ties in to why we’re in this situation in the first place. It allows us to reevaluate what’s important in life.
