Do folks here know the data goes “into” the label through the clear plastic?

A fellow xth grader did a science project on this, and I’ll never forget it.

Is this a stupid question..?
We try this in the US as well, it’s commonly referred to as “hopes and dreams”.

Do you folks coordinate in the way described, and show success with it? (Would most people agree with you?)

There’s a whole dedicated YouTube section in Brave settings!

You cannot; this has kept me from a number of swings.

You’re investing in the investor sentiment of the ticker.

Period.

Your reaction is valid.

Vouched to say:

Correct.

and the only discontent with that a minority of their people feel is when they look at us.

> if you were to … extract chemically pure sucrose

My point is: they’re not.

and in retrospect, it was weird that I ever assumed they did.

A bit.

A friend asked me the opposite: would this be the moment things get serious?

As long as people are still using glass sliders and Schlage locks to protect their actual stuff, sec will continue to be looked at as black magic, like SEO, GEO, and unironically, CEO.

> Cannot understand how they don't get how all the performance improvements directly correlates to smaller team sizes, in shareholders driven economy.

Plenty of us understand it.

Are you calling for a sabotage? A boycott? What?

Be more clear regarding what you “don’t get”.

Why not say what you’re trying to say?

Quit being passive - you’re asking folks to consider this, and deeply ponder the consequences, but what’s the action you’re calling for?

General AI ban? Managers guiding their firms not to use, to (artificially?) protect headcount? Individual contributors quietly quitting the demand to push more code than can be reviewed properly?

Say what you need to say - the way you’re going about it is worse than weird: it’s ineffective, and makes your view (whatever it actually is) look whiny.

Yes, it’s very obviously my lack of ability that causes your, and the other vague commenter’s, unhelpful and snarky comments!

How could I have been so foolish.

Again: nobody else is replying in this specific sub thread.

How have you gotten softer, over your career of dealing with this stuff ^_^

You’re actually my hero.

> Anyone that's had to deal with Microsoft will tell you this means nothing

If anything, having only one vendor to choose from is a disadvantage.

I think growing food on soil containing shit is a whole different world than boiling my food with shit,

and if you don’t, well, let’s just leave it here.

> You're saying that the toilet has somehow altered the physical chemical compounds involved in the structure

Nah - I’m pointing out the shit that comes along with your very simplified label should be known.

Same as the folic acid American rice is washed in - but never labeled with.

No.

When a flock of geese shit into the pile of beets, gnaw on the beets for a few days, and then the beets get boiled down and put into your Gatorade, sucrose ≠ sucrose.

No idea what you mean with the homeopathy quip.

There are no other replies in this part of the thread.

You don’t care if you’re understood?

I can’t decipher your reply.
Re:Northflank Breached on Friday October 30, 2026 @02:48PM (#50308444)
Places where it’s less of a problem are places I’m spending my money.

and anyone else’s money I’m asked to spend…

What about their comment says they don’t understand that?
Caffeine ≠ caffeine.

Forget the numbers you’re being given - what does caffeine crop that goes into a Coke or Pepsi product look like, compared to green tea caffeine?

What does the sugar look like, as a supply chain, vs sugars ingested from fruit?

Hint: it’s disgusting.

Camera-pill?
The Amish aren’t wrong, they just feel left out of all the fuck-shit we’re doing.

That’s the most concise way I can put that.

Are we talking about the $3 delivery charge from the Chinese joint around the corner,

or the effective $13-$33 charge per order from the major delivery apps, after up charge to be using it plus delivery?

Let’s make sure we’re talking about the same stuff, here.
