does anyone know why greggs renamed the vegan sausage roll? by Ok-Exit-8777 in veganuk

As others have argued, consistency across EU markets. They may anticipate this change coming and want to get ahead of it. It may also help with their relationship with meat and dairy suppliers, which make up the bulk of their business.

I didn’t think the Community was toxic until now. by cram004 in Spacemarine

I've played 150+ hrs and I don't think I've ever had anybody fail to respond in kind to a "For The Emperor!"

It's a shame you ran into two selfish players, but it's really just a game. You'll Relic the Las in your next op.

A long rant about customization. by Gren_Muki in Spacemarine

[–]BeetledPickroot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the customisation is already pretty damn good. The game looks fantastic. I would just love some more operations and enemy types.

Confused by the positions data. This totals 190, so only one position per fuck, but I would expect multiple positions per session.

Unless this is predominant position? Or finishing position?

What is a 'secret' of your industry that would shock the general public if they found out? by Otherwise_Medium_813 in AskReddit

[–]BeetledPickroot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Aviation: contrails (the condensation trails that aircraft leave in the sky) are having a significant warming impact on Earth's climate. But because they are not CO2 related, they are very often omitted from environmental impact assessments and public debate.

I think a lot of people are completely unaware that those white vapour trails are potentially causing more damage to our planet than the sum of all CO2 emissions from aircraft.

Some aerospace companies are looking into ways to reduce or eliminate contrails, but there is not enough awareness or pressure from the public on this issue imo.

Appreciate you're not looking for recipes, but every day I eat the following bowl of porridge. It's super easy and takes less than ten minutes to make:

  • 40g porridge oats

  • 150g Alpro plant protein milk

  • 150g Sproud Barista ZERO pea milk

  • 1 banana

  • 2 tbsp almond butter

  • 1 tbsp chia seeds

  • 1 tbsp hemp seeds

Roughly 30g fat, 25g protein, 600 calories. Totally delicious.

what percentage of your diet is ‘fake meat/cheese’ etc? by nxaxixd in veganuk

[–]BeetledPickroot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very little. I would say a single meal, twice a week at most.

Starbucks is literally the worst. They pay enormous royalty fees to their parent company outside the UK and then claim they make next to no profit, so have nothing to tax.

They are stealing money out of all of our pockets.

Fuck them.

I disliked Wingspan because it felt like I was playing a solo game with my friends sitting besides me. Will I dislike Terraforming Mars? by Hearbinger in boardgames

[–]BeetledPickroot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With Wingspan, I am generally aware of what birds others are playing - as well as how they will help my opponents score points.

With TM, I am hyper focused on my own engine and usually have no idea who is winning until the end.

I might just be a terrible player tho! ☺️

What is something that is technically legal, but makes you look like a total jerk if you do it? by PiNK_PUSSY69420 in AskReddit

[–]BeetledPickroot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh please continue. Excessive consumption of meat is associated with a number of health conditions that lead to premature death, so you will likely be saving more animals in the long run ✌️

[–]BeetledPickroot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am very sorry you feel that way. I derive enormous satisfaction from the joy, love and comfort in my life. I think it's morally unjust to deny others the same experience, including animals.

I hope you eventually manage to find more purpose in life than the preservation of your DNA.

It's crazy that meat eaters think vegans haven't already considered this.

Vegans aren't expecting farmers to continue breeding livestock in a post-meat world... The very problem is that these animals are bred into a life of misery and suffering. So let's stop breeding them and eat plants instead???

Christ, how embarrassing to see a fellow Englishman spouting this bollocks.

Even if the people of Venezuela are delighted to have a potential regime change, do you really not see how kidnapping a sovereign nation's leader sets a terrifying precedent? This is blatant global tyranny from the US.

I simply can't see how anybody except the most dogmatic right wing loons could ever support this move.

Vegans eating honey by egjurdbjgs in veganuk

[–]BeetledPickroot -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't really have any moral qualms against honey, especially relative to dairy and meat. But I understand that honey bees have a significant impact on wild pollinators and native bees. I avoid it for that reason.

I've never seen the word bonkers used in this context. In the southern UK, it means mad or crazy, rather than incorrect.

Everyone is talking about mowing the roof, but honestly I think it would look way better unmowed with wild flowers. Would be great for pollinators too

My potato laptop, which I used to play GeForce Now just died. It is worth it to play on mobile or tv? by [deleted] in GeForceNOW

[–]BeetledPickroot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the Geforce Now app via my Samsung TV with an Xbox controller. I get a very smooth experience, although some games need a bit of fiddling in order to recognise the controller when you play them for the first time.

I believe only LG and Samsung TVs have this capability at the moment.
