  • Agreed.

    Humans can be vegan because we’re omnivores. Meat isn’t the only source we need to get our nutrition. Our bodies are fantastic at pulling nutrients from different food sources.

    Cats and dogs are not. They are carnivores. Their bodies cannot adequately process the nutrition from non-meat sources.

    Humans can also take supplements for whatever nutrients we’re missing. It’s much harder to get an animal to take them, especially when you’re looking at how many would be required on a vegan diet.

    Finally, ask any vet what foods to avoid and they will tell you that you don’t want to ever give your animal those small-batch/boutique foods. They are almost never nutritionally complete since they’re designed to appear appealing to the humans, not the animals. They also often aren’t produced in a clean food-safe environment.



  • That’s the only reason I bought a modern car.

    My parents would always buy cheap beaters. They had a car from the 90s they only recently got rid of because the transmission was shot. My first car was an '05 Caravan I drove for almost two years and got rid of in 2018.

    I swallowed the pill after seeing cars get absolutely crushed to the point where the jaws of life were necessary yet passengers could just walk out.

    I remember someone posted a picture of their brand new sedan. It was involved in a serious accident and sandwiched between two large pickup trucks. The entire car was squished down until it was smaller than the passenger compartment. The driver was able to walk away with minor injuries and the paramedics weren’t even surprised.

    I don’t give a shit about the fancy features. I just want something that is reliable and safe.




  • #2 and 3 don’t actually happen since it can’t be recorded on the P&L.

    The donation would get recorded to cash and offset to a liability account, probably something named Charitable Donations Payable likely with a subaccount for the specific programs.

    Overall, the effect is essentially the same, though. Fwiw, I like to use the same comparison as you did to show to people how dumb this belief is.

    The individual who donated at the register also is allowed to claim the donation when they file their taxes.

    I knew Google started ignoring double quotes for required text years ago, but I found out yesterday that it doesn’t even think “site:xyz.com” needs to be followed.

    I was researching something and saw some Reddit posts. Clicked below it to view results from Reddit and a third of them were other websites.




  • They also have crazy long config files. All but like two lines in the file will be the same for everyone.

    Except the program also is ignoring half the config file and is instead using hardcoded values.

    Oh and there are six different config files all in different directories. Why? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
