Is it good on hotdogs and pretzels?

I haven't seen that one before. Is it "to be quite fair"?

My friend got an interactive thingamajig. It's connected to Wi-Fi, it has a camera that moves, it has a toy hanging off the top that's connected to the camera, and it can dispense treats. It also has a microphone and a speaker, so you can talk to and hear the kitties. That seemed pretty neat

Walking in short bursts found to consume 20% to 60% more energy than walking continuously for same distance (phys.org)
 

Super interesting and makes a lot of sense in retrospect.

Community solves homelessness... By paying cops over 3 million dollars (denvergazette.com)
 

I hate this news story. If I wasn't living in this community (Douglas county) I would think it's a good story. However, Douglas county has massive NIMBY policies, including outlawing everything that would allow someone experiencing homelessness anywhere near here. No homeless shelters are legal, no sleeping outside is legal, hell even weed stores are illegal in this massive county, despite it being legal in the majority of the state. Douglas county also created its own health department in protest of mask and vaccine mandates. It's a very affluent deeply conservative pocket in Colorado that makes me sick.

Corporate astroturfing is the norm (lemmy.world)
 

Went to Google Play to complain about Hulu. I noticed Google advertising that over 300 reviews had the verbatim quote "watch and movies that you love". It's always confusing that buggy corporate apps have >95% 5 star reviews until you see that the majority are just completely fake, and no one cares or is doing anything about it.

YouTube: 5 ads the norm now? (lemmy.world)

For context I'm in the US. The last time I used YouTube without an ad blocker, there were 2 ads back to back, and way too frequently. I tried watching on my PlayStation tonight, and not only are they more frequent, they've increased in quantity by 150%. It's also very common for the last ad to last 2 minutes to over an hour long. What the actual fuck, why would anyone watch YouTube without an ad blocker at this point? It's literally unwatchable

Edit: the amount of unsolicited advice in the comments is unreal. I don't get ads on my phone or on desktop, I'm very aware of how to block them. I simply won't watch YouTube on my PlayStation anymore. I'm not looking for suggestions, please stop with the recommendations.

Happy Thanksgiving brothers (lemmy.world)
 

I don't have many people to celebrate with. Part of getting older is celebrating alone, which is sobering and a change of perception. If you're reading this, I hope you're safe. I hope you're with family that loves you, I got you have a friend.

The world seems dark, but it truly is safer than ever. Don't give into the media my friend. We're truly in a golden age of information sharing, which makes life terrifying but lucid and evolving.

Is there no way to report ads? (lemmy.world)
 

Lately I've seen some... Questionable ads, to say the least. Is there no way to report these ads on sync?

If there is, am I just dumb and blind? Or is it easier than it seems?

It feels like early Reddit all over again to me, hopefully I'm wrong

For context, Android user, been here a few months, and I opt out of everything that's easy/simple/apparent to opt out of
