    TOTK performance on switch is not bad at all. I don't know where what perception came from. I haven't experienced any low frame rate issues after 100 hours.

    The IARC ruling [...] is intended to assess whether something is a potential hazard or not [... and] does not take into account how much of a product a person can safely consume.

    From the article. ^^^

    This is something people frequently overlook. A substance may be a "possible carcinogen" and also completely benign at levels any sane person would consume.

    Bananas also contain carcinogenic material, but eating bananas is still very much a healthy thing to do. There's a reason banana equivalent dose is a concept, and "the dose makes the poison" is a common refrain in toxicology.

    Such a shame it was cancelled. I guess it was too weird for most people, but I loved it. It was playing with some interesting myths and metaphors.

    I tried watching Fringe but I felt that some of the dialogue / character interactions were insufferably bad, cheesy, cliche. Couldn't get into it.

    I prefer to airpop it in the microwave and then spritz EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) on afterwards. EVOO is delicious, and unrefined oils like EVOO retain more flavor if you don't heat them.

    So instead of 'up' and 'down', you have a clickable emoji-menu like list of tags like 'interesting', 'boring', 'funny', 'WTF!?', 'Quality', 'Trash', 'Educational', 'CAT', etc...

    I'm not sure about this. How do you decide which qualities users can rate? How do you ensure those qualities work across instances with different languages / cultures? You're also taking something which is extremely low effort and making it take significant more time and effort. I think the simplicity, universality, and low effort of upvote / downvote are all strengths.

    The only parts of this video that are relevant to piracy are: 1) does it prevent your ISP from seeing your traffic (it does), and 2) can you trust a VPN when they say they have a "no logging" policy (depends on the VPN but IMO there are several that can be trusted). The rest is just debunking false marketing claims about how VPNs improve your security or whatever.

    And it doesn’t really matter if it’s technically a trust.

    I want to read some Cory Doctorow. Where should I start?

    I recently read his article about [enshittification](https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/) and watched an [interview where he talks about "chokepoint capitalism"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vluAOGJPPoM). I also really like scifi and from what I've heard he writes scifi. What scifi book(s) of his should I start with if I like these political / economic views of his?

    When researchers examined mice that had recovered from severe influenza, they came upon a surprising discovery: Taste bud cells had grown in the animals' lungs.

    What does "reduce" mean for an article, and how do I use it?

    On an article I see: boosts (x) | reduces (x) | favourites (x) What does "reduces" mean, what effect does it have, and how does a user reduce a post? I see the link to boost a post, and I see "more" but this doesn't contain a "reduce" link.

    If you're like me, you have a habit of typing reddit.com whenever you have some time to kill at a computer. Kicking habits takes time, so as you develop a new habit of typing kbin.social (or lemmy.world or whatever the case may be), consider a browser extension that blocks or redirects traffic from reddit to your desired new social media destination. For Firefox, I have found these to be helpful over the last week: * [Block Site](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/block-website/) * [Redirector](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/redirector/)
