Pringles aren’t legally chips because they’re made from mashed potato dough (as opposed to slices of potato), hence why marketing calls them crisps even in the US.
.world pre-emptively blocked the piracy comms because they are ostensibly based in Germany and have to abide by EU rules re: promotion/discussion of copyright infringement.
Despite the fact that they were never even issued a warning for such an obscure internet forum, and plausible deniability because the content wasn’t even theirs, they thought it’s better be paranoid safe than sorry.
ETA: so now .world has a stricter and more draconian policy regarding the discussion of piracy than Reddit, a publically traded entity based in the US, which has even harsher copyright infringement laws.
I mean Newton thought alchemy was a real science. Apparently he wrote over a million words spread out over years on alchemy and conducted countless experiments, these papers were only found after his death.
Wait what if the building is a small shop that has a singular room with a toilet and sink in it? The little bookstore near my house only has 1 water closet. Those type of stores will be illegal to build from now on?
.world has one disadvantage: It has to follow the laws of the Netherlands, Finland AND Germany.
So theoretically, if something’s legal for the Dutch and Finns but illegal in Germany, it’s not ok on .world. I believe it used to be smaller but I think they expanded admin teams? Idk how a single non profit website is somehow beholden to the laws of 3 separate countries.
It would be hilarious if they expanded this further. They add a country where alcohol sale is illegal? Recommendations for cocktails are now against TOS. For all. Add Singapore? Oops, discussing procurement of chewing gum is now against TOS. USA? Kinder Surprise is against TOS.
It’s Spez’s Lemmy account.
What? They evolve into Kabutops.

What, did this thing hate women?
Wrong, it is the common Australian magpie during swooping season.
Watch as Ford start a colour revolution in Paris to protect their bottom line.
Parisians yearn for freedom (to buy toddler killing SUVs). Ford cafeterias are going to change French Fries to Freedom Fries in the year of our lord 2024.
Watching whilst doing something else sorta TV.
I definitely wouldn’t get a Flipper Zero for the purposes of theft. Allegedly it is a legal device that can be re-programmed to disable security tags and open charging ports on Tesla vehicles, which is wrong.
Definitely do not purchase a Flipper Zero and utilize it for theft or disruption. Its purposes are to open garage doors.
Cucumbers aren’t native to England. They’re not even native to Europe.
The English, get this, incorporated the exciting new vegetable into their diet after being introduced by Indians, and ignored whiny people telling the world “cucumbers aren’t English” until they died out and we’re forgotten by history. Imagine the 17th century version of yourself saying they’ll burn down any teahouse that sells the exotic Indian “cucumber” because it’s not English?
You can’t expand your culture if you never try to expand it and “burn down” any change.
Imagine the bellend in 1650 that went “oh tea? I don’t touch that Chinese stuff, never tried it and never will, and I’ll burn down any establishment that sells it”
