TimewornTraveler, (edited ) in "Fantasy Zone" is such an innocuous name, too...

TFW some arrogant kid thinks seeing a speedrun glitch is the same thing as knowing how to execute the glitch.

FeelzGoodMan420, (edited ) in This is great. You should try it.

Blue cheese is one of the most tasty cheeses. You can say I’m eating mold as many times as you want. I do not give a flying fuck. Shit is absolute S tier cheese.

Also some antibiotics are made from mold. People need to wake the fuck up and realize that blue cheese is god damn delicious.

Asafum,

Sauteed mushrooms and onions on a blackened burger with blue cheese on it is absolutely amazing and no one should deprive themselves of that lol

Smoogs,

It is one of my favourite burgers

Chriswild,

Ok real talk but cheese is made of milk and milk is made from mutated sweat glands. So we take mutant sweat and let it spoil, sift it, and press it before exposing it to mold.

I don’t know why the mold is where we draw the line if we’re drawing them. I’d be wondering why you’re constantly sticking your arm in a cow vagina to keep it pregnant or with a calf so you can harvest the nutrition sweat and let it spoil.

Zess,

The one and only time I ate blue cheese it almost made me vomit in the middle of a cafeteria. Worst food I’ve ever tasted and it’s not even close.

EpeeGnome,

Yeah, not liking blue cheese because it’s mold is just silly and mockable. Not liking it because it tastes bad to you is a legit opinion and no one should be shaming anyone for it.

Smoogs,

I’m all for a diverse palet but it’s not necessary to shame someone who knows and can understand their preferences for not liking something just like they shouldn’t shame you for liking blue cheese.

Shaming and spreading misinformation is bad faith arguing in either side.

FeelzGoodMan420, (edited )

Lol what the fuck misinformation was stated in my reply?

Also my reply was clearly half joking. You need to stop taking every god damn thing on the Internet so seriously. This was literally a post about blue cheese on a fucking meme community. Go outside and touch grass. You need it.

Smoogs,

Calm down.

FeelzGoodMan420,

Lol so is this how you operate? If someone has a response that you don’t particularly like, you wrongly accuse them of spreading misinformation and then tell them to calm down?

BCsven,

My dad loves it. For me i get an initial hint of the flavour but then my taste buds/ brain get a rotten taste (like how week old garbage bins smell). As I eat it i’m on a roller coaster of mmm, and wretch. It must be some archaic survival thing where the mold triggers danger, because I love new tastes and gravitate to things like marmite and kambucha so fermented foods aren’t an issue

TIMMAY, in Happy Kwanzaa

Both are silly made up holidays that promote values that I find largely offensive, especially at scale. The only holidays that I personally value are holidays that celebrate the history of a group and/or person, and slutoween/caplitalistmas are the exact opposite of that.

I mean Yeast isn’t generally considered mold.

Smoogs,

Fermentation is still resulting in live organisms. Which essentially is what makes up a lot of food we eat. It doesn’t come out of a machine as only one atomic building block. And it is absolutely necessary in our nutrition to have this biodiversity even on a micro level to keep our body functioning.

Though it doesn’t mean you go lick the black mold in your shower. Just get some basic education of nutrition to the point you’re not so absolutely this negligently dumb about food as the OP.

Fermentation is still resulting in live organisms

Unless you’re drinking unfiltered beers, you shouldn’t actually have any live yeast left in your beer. And if there are prepare t6o be gassy as fuck for the rest of the day.

Which essentially is what makes up a lot of food we eat.

Well everything we eat was once living, or a product of something living. It’s not why people don’t like eating mold.

Mold still tastes nasty as fuck, blue cheese included, even if that particular mold is safe to eat.

Smoogs,

I’m not forcing you to eat it but preference alone isn’t enough reason to be spreading misinformation and just being stupid. Just say you don’t like it. Stay away from educating anyone on it being anything more than your preference though.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

What misinformation? That yeast isn’t mold? That’s not misinformation.

M137, (edited )

It tastes nasty to you. That’s not something objective thing. You can dislike it all you want, but that doesn’t mean other people think the same.

And you can’t just say “all mold tastes nasty”, different kinds used in different ways have as wide of a spectrum of tastes as anything else. Common things that use mold: soy sauce, miso, tempeh, sake, cured meats, and many different kinds of cheeses (not just blue cheese) and more.

IDontHavePantsOn,

Or every other cheese, or yogurt, sour cream, etc…

It’s like everyone puts on their blinders. Every time you hear cultured, fermented, or the big ol’ stupid blanket term “probiotic”, it means bacteria, mold, or yeast. Every time you hear “active”, that means it’s live organisms.

We all love to eat bacteria, mold and yeast. It all depends on the type.

crystal, (edited )

I recognize there’s mold in the air I breathe and everything I eat, including apples.

I will eat an apple with invisible mold, I won’t eat an apple with visible mold.

Same goes for beer, yogurt, and cheese.

IDontHavePantsOn, (edited )

Blue on white?! Disgusting! White on white? Yum!

You do you though. More cheese for me.

tryptaminev,

i mean there is no toxic yeast strains afaik, whereas the non toxic molds are only few specialized strains.

aiden,

Yeast is an opportunistic pathogen that will secrete toxins. The reason that you don’t get sick when eating bread and stuff is because the yeast dies when you cook it, preventing infection. Although, I’m pretty sure you’ll be fine if you ate live yeast, because your stomach would kill them, also preventing an infection.

ours,

He’s going to gag when he learns how honey is made.

Smoogs, (edited )

Or bread.

And nobody tell them to examine an apple or any vegetable under a microscope

MrShankles, in Free money

Working in a hospital; power and/or network outages usually just translate into more work for me

Johanno,

Oh god where do have hospitals regular power outages?

HiddenLayer5,
@HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml avatar

Most likely their backup generators only power the absolutely critical equipment and everything else still goes down when the power goes off.

MrShankles,

Normally, there are plugs labeled for critical equipment (as in, they’re connected to the generators even if the power goes out). But yeah, everything non-essential is kinda down.

You still absolutely need to go check your equipment during a power outage, and make sure your “critical” stuff is plugged into the “generator outlets”. There’s battery power on (pretty much) all critical equipment, so you have a buffer.

I personally don’t rely on batteries being my backup, and keep my critical stuff plugged into the labeled outlets… but you still gotta check; and deal with power being out for everything else

Flipper,

For ICU Beds they are a different colour from what I’ve seen.

Dan68,
@Dan68@lemmy.world avatar

Red colored plugs.

MrShankles,

Yes, I’ve only seen red ones

MrShankles,

I should have said color-coded instead of labeled. But yeah, I’ve only seen red plugs like that

m4xie,

Cape Town, South Africa.

MrShankles,

Not “regular outages” where I’ve worked, but natural disasters and such can happen. Back-up generators run things, but ya still gotta make sure your equipment is plugged into the “generator supplied” outlets.

But now the employees don’t have AC and such. And than the networks are down, so you have to paper-chart everything and the orders get slowed up and… it’s a whole thing. Not the end of the world if you know what you’re doing, but it can be dangerous if people don’t pay attention. It just makes it a bit more stressful to do your job well

nifty, in I sure hope I can keep up!
@nifty@lemmy.world avatar

That’s actually preferable to open office plans, which are basically work theatre spaces.

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yep, my last job had an open office plan. It was incredibly distracting and I hated that if I needed to scratch myself, everyone could see me.

a_wild_mimic_appears,

The constant noise in an open office plan is nervewrecking, and being permanently in view of your supervisors is annoying as hell. i don’t need someone to watch my every move, and if you think you have to watch my every move, i probably don’t want to work for you.

ReluctantMuskrat,

Yeah. The size of this cubicle and not being open plan tells you this picture is from at least a decade ago. It’s so much worse than this now.

TAG,

Those are still half height cube walls. It is a bit more privacy, but still has noise isolation issues. I miss head height cubes.

nilloc,

Just get a salaried job, where you can still get paid while not working, in exchange for working 70 hour weeks (30 hours for free) when an impossible deadline is set.

NABDad,

in exchange for working 70 hour weeks (30 hours for free) when an impossible deadline is set which is the normal state.

FTFY

Kalothar,

Ahhh, fun at my job if you miss a certain number of days you get temporarily moved to hourly till the end of year

MNByChoice,

Can this be gamed for massive overtime?

Also, that sucks and seems borderline illegal. Obviously, that depends on your local laws and socioeconomic status.

nilloc, (edited )

I would have gamed it at my last web dev job. Take a nice 3-4 week vacation before a Big Crunch and then get hourly and overtime when it counts.

qwertyqwertyqwerty, (edited )

Eh, I’m salaried, so there are opposite days, where I’m working well past 9pm on a weekday. There are also days where I have to work regardless of my home’s power/Internet status. If I lose those on one of those days, my office is going mobile for the day, yay!

EDIT: I’ll also add that I one of the lucky few that has a boss that measures my performance in productivity instead of hours behind a desk. It’s a beautiful thing to experience.

FartsWithAnAccent, in Oh what fun it is to ride
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

That is clearly Krampus

madcaesar,

Is he related to my dentist Mr. Krentis?

CitizenKong, (edited ) in Oh what fun it is to ride

Pretty sure that’s Krampus. (Evil counterpart to Saint Nick in Southern German folklore, punishing bad children while Saint Nick is giving presents to the good ones.)

dojan,
@dojan@lemmy.world avatar

I’d love that kind of punishment. Be carried around in a basket and go down a slope in a sleigh, screaming with a childish glee I’ve not felt in decades.

Yeah that would be nice.

ChillDude69,

Yo, I keep meaning to watch that clearly wack-ass Krampus movie, from a few years ago. I get the feeling it’s one of those so-bad-it-was-actually-pretty-entertaining kind of flicks.

ours,

Krampus (2015) is a solid good fun. No in the so-bad-it’s-good way but in the good horror comedy way.

ChillDude69,

Cool beans. I’ll give it a shot.

CitizenKong,

I second this. Also a good double feature with Rare Exports, which is another dark folklore take on Santa.

reflex,
@reflex@kbin.social avatar

Wait then why are the kids so happy

Krampus taking them to where the bad girls are.

hemko,

Krampus is not “evil counterpart” to Saint Nick, it has origins from time before the curse of Christianity got to us

Same goes to Joulupukki (Finnish for Yule goat, or Santa more recently)
