@armoedemaaktmoedeloos@mastodon.world Ik zal het aan een bekende vragen die de voedselbank gebruikt heeft. (En als er weer zo'n actie is waarbij je in de supermarkt een lijstje krijgt van wat de voedselbank nodig heeft, doe ik altijd moeite om lactosevrij en zo te kopen)

If a website says "This is not a paywall! Sign up now!", that is a paywall. It's just not your money you pay with.

Sorry, fly, I've just closed this window, I'm not going to open it for you to fly out. But there's a large spider in that corner, she might love to make your acquaintance.

@doctormo@floss.social This is how the #Krita developers got an early version of the program working for artists. They invited artists to a sprint and watched them work with it and listened to their comments and complaints.

@edgeofeurope@mastodon.social @broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca I once gave a very nice skirt that I'd bought the wrong size to my cousin who was living on social security (in NL). She made the mistake to wear it to the periodic interview and they docked her 25 guilders. (I also gave her the 25 guilders, of course. I had a (minimum wage) job at the time.)

Replying to

@quidcumque@rheinhessen.social @halla@kde.social I think I know! It's Koreans trying to say "look, our cuisine is as refined and rarefied as that of Japan" while it has completely different qualities. The only recipe in the book that actually appeals to me (rice porridge with chestnut) is delightfully simple, but not *refined* simple, though the picture tries to make it so.

(edit) Alleen jammer dat ik geen jaarlijkse donatie kan doen op mijn eigen verjaardag, tenzij ik een piepertje in mijn agenda zet voor volgend jaar februari. Dan maar op de verjaardag van een paar lieve mensen (jij deelt je verjaardag met minstens 2 andere mensen die ik ken)

@quidcumque@rheinhessen.social But that book is so pretentious! Not a practical cookbook like the Thai one (or the Great Big Asian one by the author of our favorite Chinese cookbook) but a coffee-table book that happens to have recipes. Not really a book that invites one to learn from it. @halla@kde.social

@tom@subdued.social @TheJen@beige.party When my daughters got IT lessons in high school they didn't learn what a file or a directory were. It was mostly Windows-for-dummies, which buttons to press. We objected (to the school) but weren't heard, "that's what they'll need in their job in 10 years". (20 years later, jobs have changed so much!)

Allesreiniger is op. Precies die allesreiniger is nu bij de Jumbo 2 halen 1 betalen. Ik heb net een heleboel stukken gelezen waarin wordt uitgelegd dat zulke aanbiedingen onethisch zijn en dat mensen dan alleen maar dingen gaan kopen die ze niet nodig hebben. Maar als ik nu 1 fles koop, heb ik over een tijdje sowieso de tweede nodig, en ik koop toch nooit een ander merk. Dilemma...

(ik heb er natuurlijk nu gewoon 2 in huis, allesreiniger bederft niet en die ene fles staat niet in de weg)
