I'm imagining code snippets that would actually download ads into applications people are writing. This would target those that copy/paste'd code without having any concept of what the code in question does.

This is a bit of a misnomer. While North American River otters have zero knowledge on field-effect devices, they have a good grasp of junction devices such as transistors. It would not be surprising to anyone that knows otters that they can be bi-polar.

When the solution to the problems are ‘low prices sell more product’ and literally every company seems to be ignoring that

Its not that simple. Selling more product at a lower price may not result in higher profits. These companies generally don't care about sales as much as they do profits. Selling 10x the amount of product, but at break-even or a loss would be worse to the company than it is now with their declining sales. PepsiCo's problem as I see it, is PepsiCo makes only a few products (some of their minor food brands) that would actually be a necessary purchase to live. Everything else they make is a luxury that people can skip if they can't afford it.

Everyone is getting squeezed with rising costs in housing, transportation, actual food, and medical care costs that can't be skipped, so it is PepsiCo products (and brands like them) are the first things we cut out.

2028: The law was changed and now Barron is president.

If you look at the history of what donald did to his dad, you'd see why donald would never let his son have power of him. They're all horrible people.

The good news is that is super easy to remedy.

I have to learn the basics of stir-fry first! :) I'm a pretty basic cook, but haven't really tried my hand at stir-fry.

I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge on the wok cooking though, and I didn't know about the specifics behind wok hei, though I always love that flavor from restaurants.

However, sautéed green beans in cast iron on an induction stove is one of my go-to dishes at home. What I make is NOT 四季荳! I have to go to a restaurant for that lovely dish! There was another thread here on Lemmy we were talking about induction cooking and I had taken some picture that last time I made my green beans. You're absolutely right on my overcrowding:

And after looking up your comment about wok hei temperatures starting at about 260°C and going as high as 371°C, you're also absolutely right my regular methods are nowhere near that (but until your post I didn't know about wok hei specifics). I used a FLIR camera when I was in middle of cooking and you can see I was only at about 150°C. This was the induction element set at 6 or 7 I think:

actually just you overcrowding the pan and steaming things in soggy oil rather than rapidly pan frying it

Why do you have to call me out like that?! I thought we were friends!

Increasing fossil fuel - Heritage warns that the U.S. is on the verge of an electricity shortage, arguing that cutting reliance on renewable energy — and expanding oil and natural gas — is the only way to avoid a crisis.

How are they able to say this with a straight face. "Were on the verge of a electricity shortage. We believe we should cut out a huge source of electricity to solve the shortage".

That's just whackadoodle, and so is anyone that genuinely thinks this is true.

Did he learn nothing about empathy and compassion from playing Barclay on Star Trek!?

Can you be charged with destruction of evidence before you've even been charged with a crime?

who the fuck are YOU? Get over here!”

"Well, you certainly won't find out from my phone, because I've just wiped it"

I don't disagree, but usually they at least try to present a semi-defensible argument. So far the only thing they elude to is "before or during a time when we were going to perform a search he wiped his own phone". If its "before" a search then what is even the basis for that being illegal for him to wipe is own property?

It all started with a sarcastic comment right here on Hackaday.com: ” How many phones do you know that sport a 5 and 1/4 inch diskette drive?” — and [Paul Sanjay] took that personally, or at least thought “Challenge accepted” because he immediately hooked an old Commodore floppy drive to his somewhat-less-old smartphone.

The argument started over UNIX file directories, in a post about Redox OS on smartphones— which was a [Paul Sanja] hack as well. [Paul] had everything he needed to pick up the gauntlet, and evidently did so promptly. The drive is a classic Commodore 1541, which means you’ll want to watch the demo video at 2x speed or better. (If you thought loading times felt slow in the old days, they’re positively glacial by modern standards.) The old floppy drive is plugged into a Google Pixel 3 running Postmarket OS. Sure, you could do this on Android, but a fully open Linux system is obviously the hacker’s choice. As a bonus, it makes the whole endeavor almost trivial.

Between the seven-year-old phone and the forty-year-old disk drive is an Arduino Pro Micro, configured with the XUM1541 firmware by [OpenBCM] to act as a translator. On the phone, the VICE emulator pretends to be a C64, and successfully loads Impossible Mission from an original disk. Arguably, the phone doesn’t “sport” the disk drive–if anything, it’s the other way around, given the size difference–but we think [Paul Sanja] has proven the point regardless. Bravo, [Paul].

Thanks to [Joseph Eoff], who accidentally issued the challenge and submitted the tip. If you’ve vexed someone into hacking (or been so vexed yourself), don’t hesitate to drop us a line!

We wish more people would try hacking their way through disagreements. It really, really beats a flame war.
