What’s the recourse? Do we start feeding our dogs homemade dog food instead?

Yea pretty much. As much as I mull over solutions it always comes back to returning to our roots, which happens to be impossible at this point with the current population crisis. I’d imagine redistributing the wealth to alleviate these things would be extremely hard, would probly take a war to get going, or start multiple little wars in the process. It’s really pretty bad. Worse than people like to think. I dont know where we go from here. That’s part of the problem and why we maintain the status quo.

For now you can probly start approximating what is in that food with your scraps, like back in the day. I don’t really know and I hate not knowing shit lol. (Why I’m here)

We have to go full Star Trek and remove profit and personal gain as the motive for doing everything. In the meantime I guess it’s time to start reading up on what a dog’s diet should be.

Haha i agree, but getting there is the hard part. Theres so much infrastructure built up around a messed up system that all we can do is slowly change and crawl towards our ultimate goals.

I’d be curious to see someones experience on this, and get the lowdown on if it’s cheaper and more efficient, and if so, how much money they saved etc.

Donjuanme ,

The Oroville had a really good take on this. It took me starting it 3 different times before it hooked me, but damn the third season (all the seasons really, but this season were 90 minutes episodes) kicked.

That would be nice, although remember what started it all in 2063 2053 :/

instamat ,

First contact?

Mistymtn421 ,

Oops wrong date! Meant 2053!

<After the war ended in 2053, humanity slowly began to rebuild civilization and the planet, eliminating sickness, hunger, poverty, and despair within two generations. Earth was mostly restored by the 22nd century as the United Earth Government formed, however there were still some lingering effects from the post atomic horror. Star Trek: Enterprise

This is where that paragraph came from (memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Earth) Cool place if you’re into Star Trek

instamat ,

For a second there I thought you were vehemently anti Vulcan!

If I’m into Star Trek… lol

“our costs have gone up amidst am inflationary environment and we have had no choice but to increase prices. Oh hey don’t look at our financial statements, the fact that we made record profits is irrelevant.”

My guess, the reverse is true - people fixing the lawn

Is this really MILDLY infuriating…

roddy ,

Mildly infuriating probably because it’s not their own grass

Sabzhero ,

Fair point

Mynameisnotdoug , in Buying scissors from IKEA because you don't have scissors to open things with

This post is reminding me how much Lemmy needs a “I’m done with this post, please don’t show it on my feed anymore” option.

satan_6661 , in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!

This is fucking garbage.

mightyfoolish , in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!

Paying an optional subscription fee is a great idea. It helps pay for servers and personal.

Paying to give special rewards is a horrible idea. The wealthiest can now decide which opinion is best. Everyone wants to reply to the rewarded comments to be more visible for upvotes. It’s terrible.

What’s the search like on Jerboa? I can’t copy and paste the links ever but I can find them just by the title, not even needing the instance.

It makes me not trust the search on the app.

Furbag , in Reminder that this is a thing that could happen.

I use uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock for YouTube and I haven’t seen an ad in ages. When I do see an ad, it’s because I’m trying to browse on somebody else’s computer.

SponsorBlock in particular is life changing. You don’t realize how much nonsense filler is in these videos. You can easily cut a 10 minute video from a mainstream YouTuber down to like 6 or 7 minutes worth of content if you skip intros, skip recaps, skip sponsorships and product plugs, and skip interaction reminders.

Sponsorblock is so good, it’s amazing. Even use it on Smarttube (firetv).

dill , in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!

I honestly would have been happy to start paying some money to reddit directly or via a sub to rif. lmfao RIP

Thorny_Thicket , in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!

“Pay us and we’ll give you all this junk you never wanted in the first place”

I don’t want more stuff - I want less of it. That’s why I used RiF/old.reddit and that’s why I’m now leaving.

dhork , in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!

The irony is that I was mentally prepared to have to pay for Premium to keep BaconReader. All they had to do was add an “API access” badge to that screen and none of this would have happened, plus they would have gotten a bunch more new sign-ups. I am at a loss to explain what Steve is thinking, nor why his decisions are better for profitability.

boonhet ,

Yeah, I’d gladly pay the sub for Apollo if reddit had decided to charge a modest price for the API and Christian could make a buck off it and reddit could also make a few bucks off me.

Reddit could’ve probably 5x’d or 10x’d the money they make off me that way, but now they 0x’d it.
