  • I only use fare height when forced through the means of technology that for some reason hasn’t been legislated to provide sane units mandatorily when sold in Canada

    The exceptions to this would be lumber. Then occasionally I get pissed off at any Canadian company (or even government form) that refuses to follow our own standards. For instance federally, its recemmoneded to use YYYY-MM-DD unless you’re writing out the month with three letters or more in which case you can use the insane states method. Yet consistently in forms I input the date wrong cause they do whatever that other format is





  • Assuming this refers to essentially processed cheese like kraft singles.

    9/10 times a different cheese will taste much better and texturally if you’re using a good melting point cheese for the use case better there as well.

    That said, this style of cheese excels and is really only tolerable in HOT food. It needs to be melted. Its nasty pre-melt and its nasty post-melt. But while melted, it’s good.

    A grilled cheese with real and stringy cheeses is great. But sometimes a grilled cheese with 2 kraft singles is what you crave.



  • Threads like this are great!

    Not for infromative purposes, but as a reminder how whipped and nonsensical cat owners can be.

    I never noticed until I got my own cats though. Used to be a dog person, through and through. Still am, but now I also love my cats.

    Now like dogs, they are individuals so there are adjustments needed but let me just list all that I do with my cats that works amazing for them…

    • ad libitum food, 2 cats, 4 bowls. 2 always full with dry food, 2 always full with water. (Now there’s actually also two massive dog water bowls they have additional access to)
    • Night time crates; when we go to bed, they go to bed. No fuss, they are crate trained just like our 3 dogs.
    • Never outside without a harness/leash. These are pets, and unlike dogs which are easily contained with chains or fences cats are not. Its unethical and plain wrong to let your cat out to kill birds and encroach on others property. Barn cats are another tough topic, I won’t touch on cause that’s a situation. But irrelevant anyways since these are house cats.

    These 2 cats are healthy af, not overweight and well they eat and drink well.

    I’ll add, I grew up with ad libitum dog feeding too. That said my 3 dogs currently are on a 2 meals a day regiment. This is purely due to the fact we have some overly food motivated breeds who will fight and we need to have them seperate when food is involved in any capacity (their food and food in general)

    This rant just to say, cat owners very often come off as the type that try to sell chunks of gypsum and amethyst to heal your woes.










  • I mean you’re highlighting some points that support how open and decentralized that this place is?

    It seems there is a healthy sentiment among users and understanding the tolerance paradox. Beyond that the ability to discuss around what we (an instance) wants vs what we (Lemmy) wants vs what we (individual users) want is great. The option the federate and defederate is also great, as if there is an instance adding 0 value to any of those prior groups (like lemmy.online), you as a community can decide to not federate. You as a user don’t like that choice? You can go to another instance or make your own! The level of openess and control is really in your hands.
