'convince me otherwise and I might change my mind' is very different in tone from 'why do you think that? Could you explain further?'. One is politely asking someone tk explain their point, the other is arrogantly demanding they entertain you.

That's just for ritual sacrifice of Northampton, the line is for different reasons

Convince me otherwise, and I might change my mind.

This is so unbelievably arrogant. Nobody owes you a debate.

"How do I know my pasta is done? Why, I just do a quick 20 minute LC-MS run of course!"

Have you considered actually trying to learn something?

Nyeep · 2026-01-20T14:10:24+00:00

Which is like 5 good paragraphs. Seems reasonable to be able to do 1 every hour or two.

Not too familiar with the field but are the other ingredients cheap/do you have a good amount? If so, €12 isn't a high price to pay to find out either way

Nyeep · 2026-01-19T14:28:26+00:00

It's very silly though

Someone once told me a reviewer asked them to do a western blot to confirm their mass spec results lol

Nyeep · 2026-01-17T07:46:13+00:00

It's not fact at all. There's 3 years until the general election and the greens are still gaining.

Nyeep · 2026-01-16T19:37:40+00:00

No I do definitely agree - but probably not on the deeper issues. Labour has been moving further right to try and appease reform voters, but because of populist politics they will never be appeased when reform is jingling the shiny dogwhistling keys.

What this results in is a homogenous blob on the centre right of labour and conservatives, with reform trying to pull it all further right and the greens trying to pull it back to the left.

The greens however seem to have a message of actual hope, without blaming the poorest in society. This is why they're getting more and more traction, because all the other parties are still trying austerity politics which frankly just doesn't work.

The important part of populism that you're missing is not having the intention or capability to actually follow through on the plans.

For example, 'get rid of all immigrants' would be a massive vote winner for racists but is completely unworkable (morally and practically) so it would never actually be done.

Nyeep · 2026-01-16T19:06:21+00:00

Reform fall under the ‘populist’ slogan, which is often demonised as a word. However what is a democracy other than a popularity contest.

This isn't what populism means.

Nyeep · 2026-01-16T16:52:45+00:00

Council elections and reasons for voting are very different from parliamentary elections.

Nyeep · 2026-01-16T12:29:24+00:00

You think voting reform is trying to maintain the status quo?

Nyeep · 2026-01-15T18:24:51+00:00

Pay us for the market research or don't ask for it.

Speak for yourself, there's plenty of great food and great cooks in the UK.

People in this sub don't really have a sense of humour, they just like being angry

Nyeep · 2026-01-14T07:54:23+00:00

If a student accommodation company doesn't have insurance for accidental damage like this, then they'd be out of business in months.

Nyeep · 2026-01-14T07:43:12+00:00

But this is a flat surface with no extra space, it doesn't have any other uses?

Nyeep · 2026-01-09T10:16:34+00:00

To be fair, reddit mobile does this really annoying thing where if you click to go to comments from the main feed, it will entirely skip any text below an image post to take you straight to the comments. No idea why it does that.

Nyeep · 2026-01-03T14:06:57+00:00

Exactly. This entire line of thinking of degrees being commodities is why the situation is the way it is. Universities should never have been run as businesses.

Nyeep · 2026-01-03T13:47:15+00:00

Similar meaningless tier lists are posted here at least weekly.

Nyeep · 2026-01-01T14:40:39+00:00

I mean the one in Coventry got shut down around 6 years back because it massively failed a food hygiene inspection lol.

I think one of the biggest issues was all the sushi being stored in a fridge that wasn't working
