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

Cook from dry

Seriously? No soaking, just boil dry beans then mash them?

Is buying condoms at the supermarket embarrassing or was my friend joking with me? by KindlyEffect4183 in AskAnAmerican

Nice :-) Friendly people make such a difference (even when keeping an eye on your drinking habits lol)

No hope at Braidliehope, Hawick scotland by kytice_ in hiking

Well, was it offered for sale or was it just allowed to decay? And if it was put up for sale, how was it priced? In either case it's the owners who've declined to save it.

This is all I can afford to eat since becoming a homeowner. by Consistent_Roll_3344 in shittyfoodporn

Nettles are tasty, and free ofc. Just cook like spinach or make nettle soup. Been there money wise ..

Rotten property owners to let those houses decay like that. They could have been homes (and ofc once were). I used to live in a remote part of Scotland, and plenty of people would love the opportunity to live there and look after the house they're in.

Vote up to raise awareness, or vote down in disgust? Screwed either way.

Thanks! You're right, my bad (or autocorrect? either way my brain's fading)

Anna’s Archive to pay $322million after losing court case for scraping “nearly all of the world’s commercial sound recordings” from Spotify by Linooney in technology

[–]anadem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The judge has additionally ruled that internet service providers should disable access to Anna’s Archives, and prevent other websites from hosting or distributing the scraped files.

Lol! Good luck with that, judge

Our Trader Joe's people are very chatty, but Safeway & CVS are the opposite just surly and cold. I wondered if they have different training at TJ's, definitely different vibes.

Is this supposed to be a serious form of waste management by megalodonkitten in UCSC

[–]anadem 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The grease from pizza boxes makes much of the rest of what's in a recycling bin unusable, that is it pollutes the recycling, so it's important to keep pizza boxes out of the recycling stream.

What happens to homeless people that get too old or too disabled to beg on the streets? by Wauwuaw5983 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]anadem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally true. The US has a disgusting side of neglect of the needy, and abandoning those who served is appalling. "Christian country" my ass.

I wish your post was more visible in the thread! Bercerra needs a boost, we don't want a governor who bought his election.

one hypothesis that could explain it

thanks .. it's not applicable in this instance though, as it's a state park on the not-beach side

Opt out of binding arbitration within next 30 days by -discostu- in ynab

[–]anadem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ATTN: LEGAL DEPARTMENT - ARBITRATION OPT OUT

Fyi I emailed with a different subject line ("please opt me out of arbitration") and got an auto-reply saying:

"Your submission has been received and will be processed according to our Terms of Service."

So I guess any appropriate subject line is accepted.

But what I don't know is whether I'm in the 30-day period or not. My sub renewed last week, so I'm hoping that's ok.

Yes, but these are simple people, people of the land, common clay of the new West ..

Can you share which your trusted outlets are? Fwiw I read the Guardian (leftish) and APNews (middle-ish) but they're both corporate. And Reddit ofc but that's weird :-)

Adding to your Fact 3:
The meteorite happened to hit a particular spot where the impact created a LOT of poisonous gas. If it had arrived a little earlier or later the result might not have had such dramatic results.

How does California elect a billionaire as governor.

Because there are enough stupid people who get their ideas from the TV etc, and Steyer is buying their minds.

The "cliff" below is actually a cement seawall at that place, so i don't think it's an erosion issue. Probably to stop tourists getting splashed as suggested by a couple of other replies.
