I guess MSexit wasn't approved for the name for this. But I thought it was about Mexico, and got confused

Honestly, yes. If they're having to guess what is or isn't allowed, it's only a matter of time until it actually happens.

And sure, having a Visa influences my stance on what Valve should do! Haha

Not surprising. Want an example of an ultra-processed food?

Bread. Pasta.

Not just Wonderbread or whatever crap from the American grocery store...but any kind of bread, tortilla, etc.

Bread, lots of kinds of meats that aren't just a piece of meat (sausages and ground meats are processed. Not sure about "ultra" processed). All kinds of "basic" stuff.

It does depend on the definition (some sources bring things like bread down into the minimally-processed or some middle category), but if you want unprocessed foods, you're looking at raw fruits and veggies. Cooking counts as processing by some definitions.

If you allow cooking, you can add whole meats, natural herbs and spices, eggs, beans and legumes, nuts and seeds, fish, milk, honey...but no frying them, and nothing canned or frozen. And no, you can't turn the milk into cheese.

If you can eat a diet without any processed foods, or even primarily unprocessed foods, that's great! It sounds difficult (and expensive) though, at least if you're eating meat.

WTF Apple

Apple isn't known for doing particularly good things, but this is just egregiously bad.

MasterCard probably makes too much money from Steam to permanently ban them.

At the same time, the provinces are complaining about the Federal government stepping into provincial affairs.

AND at the same time, the provinces are complaining that the Federal government isn't giving the provinces enough money.

No bike lanes "impede traffic". They separate the bikes from the cars so that bikes don't have to impede traffic.

The most generous interpretation is that this is incompetence and idiocy. Not an excuse when they can educate themselves.

More likely, this is a war of culture. Or someone is looking to get useless paycheques for construction buddies.

It's known (at least in Toronto) that this WILL hurt and kill cyclists. Some sick fucks will be happy about that.

Always will be that way, too.

IIRC, Lemmy.ml was the first instance; the ones who built Lemmy. We're kind of the "normies" who've invaded their space.

I appreciate them for building Lemmy and letting it remain free ("freedom" free). Still, I'll argue with people who are saying crazy stuff like NK being a good place for its citizens to live...

The community seems closer to my age.

I feel like the community is split between 25~40s and pre-teens, lol

Though to be fair, it feels like a 70:30 split.

There are a lot of Reddit refugees here. Many came over because Reddit sucks. Others came during the API debacle. Some seem to have come here because they were banned from Reddit due to not really knowing how to follow the social rules of the internet.

The AskLemmy Community, for example, will have posts like this next to each other (if you sort by New):

What's the biggest issue you've seen when someone tried to shift to Linux?

Why do older people say im mature for my age but my friends still say things like hey buddy/pal??

Moshe? Kohen? Baylor???

Multiple versions of "Oak"???

I don't understand these names

YES. OR HORSES.

I think they're saying GOG doesn't support Linux?

Probably a Mystery Dungeon game. I'd go with Gen 5, having not played it on ages, for a mainline game.

Scarlet/Violet was surprisingly decent, at least in the end-game.

A lot of activity on the Internet

Being poor is already pretty illegal with no signs of changing

I'd wager the bike rack generally has more bikes than that SUV has passengers

That SUV holds 7 people.

How often?

barred from owning cars while they live there?

Yeah, just like how if there isn't a bus stop at the door of the building, that means anyone who lives there is barred from taking a bus. /s

Not every single piece of art goes into a museum

Haha, it wasn't the end of the sentence, but I don't think the rest of the original sentence meaningfully changed that particular clause!
