  • People that really want convenience just pay for streaming services.

    Streaming services stopped being convenient a couple of years ago. Introduction of ads, content strewn all over the place, shitty UI, etc.

    I went with Stremio because it has everything in one place. Seeding is not an option because Germany is a shit country for seeding Torrents.

    Real Debrid does the torrenting while the end user downloads the cached content. I’m not sure if they seed or not however.



  • Hmm, I might backpedal a bit with my comment. Though I believe it’s near impossible to get the contents to a flashing point unless the water that is used is in a pressurized environment. Condensed milk is a liquid, meaning it is heated a lot faster than food. Liquids are subjected to convection when heated, meaning they heat up easily. I doubt a hamburger inside a can will ever reach 100 °C in boiling water.

    Still, thanks for explaining your reasoning, I work in the beverage industry and know a fair deal about pasteurization, but that all happens somewhere between 60-80 °C and CO2 is the main culprit in terms and peaking cans. I wasn’t thinking about water turning into gas, thus increasing internal pressure.


  • Canned food is literally pasteurized in said can, while submerged in water at temperatures slightly lower than 100 °C. The whole reason to put food in cans is to create an airtight atmosphere that can be thermally treated with hot water. This kills certain spores (mainly botulinum) which is why canned food has a very long shelf life.

    It’s still not correct to cook the food that way, but not because of the reason you made up.










  • Yeah, BYD is massively subsidized by the government, mainly to try to destroy the western EV market. I’m really on the fence on that one. On the one hand, I’d like our car Industry to be a bit more disruptive and come up with cheaper solutions (fuck SUVs, the German car Industry is just making huge luxury cars that are way too expensive, both capex and opex wise). On the other hand, I don’t want Winny the Pooh gaining influence on the west.
