If you can't grow your own or go to farmers market. Get them when it's early in the season (I.e. now) as a big reason they usually taste like shit is because they are harvested unripe and then ripen in transit, which causes them to be light in colour, watery and have that white centre to them.

But early in the season they are /more likely/ to be allowed to ripen on the plant.

I've been eating loads of strawberries this past week from my local big chain supermarket and they have mostly been amazing (and cheap too)

"No ya see, we killed or evicted all the people in the hospital first, so it's actually perfectly moral for us to use it as a military base, because you see if Hamas wants to attack us, they have to destroy their own vital infrastructure that they already desperately need for their thousands and thousands of sick, I turned and starving civilians!! So yeah no morality issues at all here!"

4?

Sony, universal and Warner are the big 3. Who are you could ting as the 4th? BMG?

company that exploits all the artists under it.

In the sense that all Labour under capitalism is exploitative, maybe, but otherwise Sony is pretty well liked among its artists.

But I agree with the rest of what you said.

International politics is complicated. Would you actually rather them just let civilians starve to death as well?

Also don't forget the supreme court. 2 of the conservatives justices are getting old and couldnpossibly retire during a trump term to assure a partisan republican court for several decades.

"What the fuck? why is this spell trying to access your Patron directly? Theres no reason it cant run off your local mana reserves"

The duplicate question:

Q: Im trying to cast chromatic orb on some goblins, but I dont have enough mana. Is there any way to make it use less?

A: You shouldnt be using chromatic orb on Goblins, you should be using eldrich blast.

"Op is saying eh doesnt have the mana to cast chromatic orb, eldritch blast uses 3x as much mana and is way more complicated to use"

"Well theres a reason no one uses chromatic orb, OP needs to learn best practices."

The fact you had to argue a completely different point instead of the one I'm actually making shows that you KNOW your position is morally indefensible.

We both know that Israel invading palesting and killing thousands of children isn't "self defence".

We both know Israel restricting humanitarian aid from entering palestine, thus causing a man made famine, is not them defending themselves.

Everyone here knows you are not arguing in good faith. Including yourself, so why are you wasting your time? Are you doing a "le epic troll"? Are you just an edgy contrarian? Or something else? Please, tell me.

A large portion of most rich peoples investment portfolios is commercial real estate.

So if remote work takes off then offices devalue and their invest profiles diminish. That's why all the big business have colluded to force RTO, even if it would ostensibly cost their business more to do so. The execs personal savings are more important.

Honestly I'm betting they're doing this because the uni had little to no investments in Israeli companies in the first place.

You know, part of me wants to believe there was actually nothing malicious going on here and when this all went down some guy at Sony was just very surprised this turned out to be a big deal and wa just kinda like "if it matters that much to you we just won't do it I guess, idc."

[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don't come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don't really get upset by it...

gmtom ,
@gmtom@lemmy.world avatar

Far too often I see vegans outright shaming and harassing people for choosing to eat meat,

As someone that has been Vegan before I assure its far far far far far far more common for it to be the other way around.

gmtom ,
@gmtom@lemmy.world avatar

Its because they ran into the loudest, most annoying vegans.

Honestly not even that. Im willing to bet most of these people crying about militant vegans havet ever even come across one. But have heard a story from from some shitrag newspaper that reported on some vegan doing something a thousand miles away from them and then used that to form their opinion on all vegans

gmtom ,
@gmtom@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah. I think 90% of these guys complaining about militant vegans have never actually come across one. But have heard sotries about them from other people or the news and just assimilated that as part of their own experience. Much in the same way racists here stories about how bad immigrrants are from newpapers and use that to form their opinions.

Why wouldn’t a reasonable person pick the bear?

Because you're comparing a wild animal that can easily kill you with a single swipe, with a random normal person?

Plenty of people have just ordinary, totally safe experiences with bears in their normal lives.

I can, with 10,000,000,000% certainty tell you that way more people have vastly more ordinary, totally safe experiences with random men in their normal lives than with bears.
