  • Is there any evidence of a difference in healthfulness between having fruit vs having added sugar along with fibre foods?

    Jump

  • I was just expressing surprise at exactly how shit this health-related, science-related advice was, and consequently what a bad idea listening to it would be. It is not my field, as stated. Do I need to post a treatise to be able to say "whoa, that's not how good advice looks"?

    Sorry you didn't find it constructive, I don't find this productive or constructive or any other metaphor either. Guess you can't please everyone.

    Is lemmy being gatekept by animal ag shills?

  • Have you considered maybe your "participation" is just insufferable even if it weren't blatantly bad faith?

  • Is there any evidence of a difference in healthfulness between having fruit vs having added sugar along with fibre foods?

  • The advice is wank, from people who don't know jack about this. And yes, I know - I don't, either. That is why I don't try to answer questions on hugely complicated fields I don't know. Almost nobody even considered posting a source for anything and that is a huge red flag in a question that is basically about science.

    Given that the advice is off-topic, wrong, potentially risky or some combination, I am not wrong about the general sentiment. If you wanted me to phrase it some other way, maybe you could've been more, uh, constructive.

    After all, commenting “this is the pure dietary sugar of discussions” and then walking away is the pure dietary sugar of discussions.

  • Holy crap, don't get your dietary advice from this place apparently.

    Should we replace democracy with science?

    Jump

  • Bottom? This is par for the course.

  • Do I need a good argument for you to respect my opinion?

    Jump

  • Depending on what you mean by respect and opinion, yes. If you're discussing an opinion then someone is probably going to expect you to explain why, that's a logical point to cover in any such discussion. Even if it's subjective. If it's an opinion on something objective, then there's an actual burden of "proof" and possible consequences, and the stakes rise accordingly.

    There aren't many reasons to "properly" respect an opinion that is irrational (not just subjective), factually wrong ("interpretation" only goes so far), dishonest, or anything like that. I'm skeptical of endorsing any opinion until I know why it is what it is.

  • Maybe they've finally fixed one of the glitches from Oblivion.

    Maybe it's a second cave/"randomly generated" dungeon.

  • Is there a way to get recommendations for "underrated" songs, or music that is awesome but I might not come across? For instance, I really loved the Peacemaker soundtrack...

    Jump

  • "Underrated" and "awesome" tend to just... mean roughly the same thing in this context, and it's so individual it's hopeless to try to recommend stuff based on that alone. Popularity or unpopularity doesn't necessarily speak to how much you'll like it, either.

    Recommendations are easier to give the better you know your tastes, and the better you can describe them.

    You can also do some thinking about what you like and why, and see how others describe that song/album/artist/whatever to get some useful starting points. If you want to nerd out, Wikipedia and the like can tell you a lot about musical influences that shaped this or that style, and you can track it down and see if it resonates with you.

  • Is There a Way to Officially Disable a Lemmy Account?

    Jump

  • As they say, you're not a train or plane, you don't need to announce your departure. I do completely get your complaint about the negativity here, though, it's... a lot. Wanting some distance from that because it's a bummer is perfectly reasonable.

    Best of luck in the future.

  • Unconventional kitchen utensil you can't live without?

  • Whatever works, of course. I'm not trying to go all hipster, I just think it's sort of pleasant work with the whetstone, and having crazy sharp knives is weirdly satisfying.

  • Unconventional kitchen utensil you can't live without?

    Jump

  • Small set of whetstones so I can keep my kitchen knives absurdly sharp. Sharp vs "meh" vs dull knives make a huge difference in speed, comfort and safety. I've scuffed my knives a bit getting into things, but at least they're sharp as hell and touching them up only takes a few minutes.

    Also it's hardly unconventional, but a quick read thermometer (fold-out type) is almost a must.
