WashedOver@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Alex Jones sues Sandy Hook families and Onion over ‘Frankenstein bid’ for Infowars1430·8 months agoIt’s a shame in “these cases” there isn’t prison for those in debt. It would be great to see these types in a *pillory (damn autocorrect) or stocks in the town square.
WashedOver@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Ramaswamy wants to defund unauthorized government programs - like veteran healthcare23·8 months agoThe last conservative government silenced the government scientists from discussing climate change and destroyed decades of research as they didn’t believe in it and it didn’t fit their Alberta oil jobs first objectives.
We are looking at another Conservative government coming our way again in the next year and it’s going to be a super shit storm when our Cons and the US Cons are firing on all cylinders destroy everything they don’t like or believe in. I fear it’s going to take decades again to come back on the science again.
WashedOver@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did something about mass produced ice cream change like 10 years ago?62·8 months agoThere are social media videos I seen where the cheaper brands of ice cream no longer melt, even after days of sitting on the counter. Same for the cheap ice cream sandwiches. Days and they don’t lose their shape.
I wouldn’t be surprised to find out they no longer need refrigeration beyond the preference of enjoying it cold versus warm.
Many parts of the EU often has North American travellers amazed how well they feel while eating *there during their vacations and how awful they feel when coming back to the north American diet. What’s a few chemicals many will say.
It just seems everything from bread to pasta, dairy, meat, desserts etc doesn’t seem to make you feel as awful as north American food can.
I love *Haagen Dazs vanilla bean ice cream. It’s not the cheapest but it’s one of the cleanest I can find among the big brands. Walmart etc usually has it the cheapest.

WashedOver@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much of a game changer was USB-C for you, compared to other cables?1·8 months agoDepends on if it is still using USB 2.0 or 3.0+ standard for data transfer. I love the mostly plug it in way you like option Ivey micro usb, but trying to do photo file transfers from older/cheaper USB C with 2.0 is brutally slow if needed.

WashedOver@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•X Payments delayed after Musk’s X weirdly withdrew application for NY licenseEnglish1·8 months agoHe was a part of the story. The book The Founders goes into the beginnings of PayPal, Ebay, the other players, Elon being brought in, and Elon’s origins. A good read and it’s not all about Musk.
We’ve seen the same issues with hockey. The use of plastics in shoulder and elbow protections versus the older leathers and felt padding. When delivering a hit both players feel it, today not so much as a plastic shoulder goes into a face it’s more one way.
As much as they have been changing the rules, a crazy part of me wonders if less equipment might help more, like those old leather helmets. Would players not be hitting as hard?
That’s not a part of the disarmament treaty the US and Ukraine signed as the Soviet union integrated who in their right mind will ever trust the US again when it comes to treaties. And who’s ever going to stand alongside the US in future if they ever need it, they’d be crazy to.
