That too, honestly thats the more significant reason. Shaper knives give cleaner cuts which heal easier was the point i was making, but yeah the bigger reason is that you have much better control with a sharp knife and need way less force.

OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto politics @lemmy.world•Minority Leader Jeffries refuses to endorse NY mayoral candidate Mamdani amid deepening Democratic Party crisis3·1 day agoLot of the DNC is too stupid to realize that. They see missing votes from demographics that normally would and assume it means that theyre too left and need to appeal more to centrists.
one of the reasons why sharp knives are safer than dull knives generally
though that wisdom is more applicable to cooking
OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto memes@lemmy.world•I know nothing about computers but this does not add up1·1 day agoI’m not familiar, but it does look useful. Seems to combine the best of both png and jpg, with the power of jpg’s compression with the option of lossless compression + support for transparency or whatever else you might want to have a channel for
OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto memes@lemmy.world•I know nothing about computers but this does not add up5·1 day agoWebp is honestly a really good format for what its made to do. That being said, windows support for it is lacking for some reason. I don’t know why as it’s been common for a long time now.
Also, you can always use ffmpeg to convert to png or jpg or whatever you want. Simple file conversions like that are super easy.
Ehhhhh… I’ve only seen one group portray a diagonal black swastika in a white circle surrounded by red. Swastikas as portrayed by budism and such aren’t usually presented that way.
I don’t think anyone actually thinks this other than like currently serving politicians and cops

OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto History Memes@lemmy.world•Splitting Eastern Europe with the Nazis, and only joining the Allied side in '41!English3·2 days agoOn a global scale, I think there’s an argument to be made that the fight never ended at all.
But, on a local scale, Chile comes to mind. Pinochet was ousted democratically and the military dictatorship ended. But that was only really because Pinochet was willing to relinquish control (due to external factors mostly, not just some change of heart) which isn’t exactly common for fascist and authoritarian leaders, so Im not sure if that example applies much generally.
OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto News@lemmy.world•UPDATE: ‘No evidence’ of an active shooter on University of Arkansas campus5·3 days agoCU Boulder may have just been swatted as well. Think that makes 6 within the last week. No idea why
I’d say its more complicated than that but yeah absolutely that administration didn’t try to stop it, it clearly wasn’t their goal in the slightest. They did very little (though even that very little was more than the trump administration has ever done or tried to) but I’m not gonna act like Kamala Harris would have been like the fuckin savior of Gaza cause that’s just false.
However, if Harris had won the election, we would:
- not have people sent to concentration camps in El Salvador
- not have a concentration camp in the Everglades
- not have the mass militarization of ICE
- not hace the total loss of due process for immigration cases and people being kidnapped by federal officers off the street
- not have millions of people losing Medicaid
- not have the national guard marching on the streets of DC
- not have Texas gerrymandering 5 seats in the middle of the term at the president’s request
- not have the CDC, HHS, and millions of dollars in funding for research gutted
- not have environmental programs and research gutted
- not have a convicted rapist in the oval office
- not have students deported for protesting
- there’s like dozens more things that I could list tbh
- still have a genocide in gaza
I totally understand why people were really upset about that last point. I was/am too. But I have a few thoughts:
- If you thought Trump would have been better for gazans than Harris, you’re a fucking idiot.
- If you think those two were equally bad because of that single issue, then you’re a fucking idiot.
- If you didn’t vote to make a point about how we need something better than those two options, you contributed far more towards Trump’s victory than you did to making that point, especially since the democratic party is full of imbeciles who will see your missing vote and interpret it as meaning they need to become more “moderate.”
No, but less is better than more
OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers NexusEnglish5·4 days agoThat’s definitely an option. It would be a good idea for him to do that, I think. But my main point is that losing YouTube would be devastating for GN regardless of whether or not they’re on peertube, and moving entirely to peertube isn’t really feasible for them
OboTheHobo@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers NexusEnglish481·4 days agoWaaaay less money to be made there. Not saying he’s exclusively doing this for the money like the other reply, but we’re not talking about some solo guy making videos in his free time for fun. The man is running a business, needs money to make this videos happen, and to my knowledge this is his job.

Edit: indeed, it’s the 9 most common: milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, sesame and soybeans. It’s in the article.

Bigger, more powerful groups have tried and failed to make changes like this over and over again. Why does collective shout have so much pull? It doesn’t make any sense to me.

Fyi everyone: you can download the entirety of Wikipedia yourself from kiwix and it’s only about 50gb for the whole thing, 100 with all images.
