So a Lemmy shitpost is just a reddit cross-post? The actual OP didn’t give any context to the images. Even if this isn’t a bot post, it might as well be one.

You forgot about the radio towers that have been in Belarus that allow Russia to control long range drones. Ukraine took a few out already, but there are likely more. (I’ll have to check recent drone paths to see if there are still issues.)


Not yet.
I think there is a much higher probability of oil prices being manipulated in the short-term.


I would normally say this is a parental issue. However, the quirky combinations of vitamin b, caffeine, massive amounts of sugar combined with whatever else is even slightly rumored to boost energy should be, at minimum, slightly regulated for youth.
I am not doing deep-dive research for this comment, but I would speculate that the above drinks are simply not healthy for developing bodies and brains.
I also suspect that the biggest issues are with lack of moderation.
Just eat it right out of the can or just put the can in the microwave?
Peak shitpost. Well played.


That’s basically a tunafish sandwich without the sandwich. Add a bit of lemon juice and it’ll knock down the fishy taste. Add a bit more lemon juice for a bit more citrus excitement.
I accidentally added too much mayo to my tunafish the other day and fixed it with a bit of Panko, of all things. The extra crunch was super neat and was better than celery that some people add. (Panko, for those who don’t know, is a Japanese breadcrumb that is super close in texture to rice crispies. I thought it would help absorb the extra mayo, and it kinda did, but also kinda didn’t.)


Nicotine is removed from tobacco before it is reintroduced in a controlled way during cigarette manufacturing. This creates a consistent dose per cigarette.
Lower nicotine tobacco is not needed.


May 19, 2026 3:00 PM _Meta Employees Are Scrambling to Use Up Benefits Ahead of Ahead of Meta’s latest round of mass layoffs tomorrow, some employees are deserting offices, abandoning their work, and loading up on perks they might soon lose, several people at the company tell WIRED.
Two employees describe a widespread rush to use up an annual $2,000 flexible benefit, which can cover a variety of expenses including health and wellness activities. A separate triennial credit of $200 toward the purchase of audio gear has led to a scramble to purchase Apple AirPods and other headphones. Another source says Meta offices have been largely empty this week, as people prioritize polishing their résumés and gather offsite to commiserate with friends for what may be their final time as colleagues. Employees are variously “paralyzed,” “coasting,” and “panicked,” sources say.
Meta plans to lay off about 10 percent of its nearly 80,000 employees on Wednesday, with notices going out to affected workers’ personal and corporate email addresses at 4 am Singapore, London, or San Francisco time depending on their location, according to a company-wide memo sent on Monday. The cuts are coming at a time when the social media giant behind Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook is enjoying record-high profits.
But CEO Mark Zuckerberg insists that the company must free up cash to invest in AI data centers, and that Meta can perform just as well with fewer employees because of AI technologies that augment human labor.
Are you a current or former Meta employee who wants to talk about what’s happening? We’d like to hear from you. Using a nonwork phone or computer, contact the reporter securely on Signal at peard33.24 and ChaoticGoode.12. Meta didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment for this story. The company has undergone three previous large rounds of layoffs since 2022, including as part of Meta’s one-time “year of efficiency” drive in 2023. But even though the latest round is smaller than a couple of those, it is drawing widespread scrutiny because it comes at a time of societal anxiety about AI’s impact on jobs.
Inside Meta, the imminent cuts are among several concerns that have sunk morale to unprecedented depths, according to 16 current and former employees who recently spoke to WIRED. Employees also have been frustrated by being “drafted” onto a new AI team without any choice and the rollout of surveillance software that tracks US workers’ laptop use to train AI models.
Meta also plans to internally restructure as it conducts sweeping layoffs, transferring 7,000 remaining staff to “AI initiatives” and converting more managers into individual contributors. That would bring the total number of those affected—either laid off or placed in a new role—to 20 percent of the current workforce, Reuters reported on Monday. WIRED independently confirmed this reporting. Some parts of the company have been told they won’t be affected at all.
But in recent days, employees who are bracing for changes have shared checklists internally about benefits to take advantage of, and are saving documents such as performance reviews and pay stubs, according to one worker. Some teams are meeting up at bars and restaurants near Meta offices in New York and Menlo Park on Tuesday and Wednesday to eat and drink away their sorrows, several employees said. Management has encouraged employees not to come into offices on Wednesday.
Update, May 19, 11:40 PM EDT: WIRED corrected the time zones when layoff notices will be emailed. _


SearXNG is a local option and is fairly easy to get a container running for it.
It’s not the cleanest, but it will let you search about anything that is searchable if you allow it. (It’ll aggregate results from ~244 different search engines so beware. It’s a “metasearch” engine.)
It can be a bit slow at times (especially if all the things are turned on), and is a bit like Google in its infancy. However, there aren’t ads or promoted results. It’s fairly raw, if you are into that kinda thing.
Getting the API working with Python can be a pain at times due to its bot control mechanisms and strict header checks. (I believe they default these features ON if someone accidentally makes their instance public or something like that.)


Dude is almost directly quoting Russian state media and doesn’t even realize he is just parroting a narrative*.
This is why you don’t listen to state media, kids. If you hear something on repeat, over and over, you eventually begin to believe those words are true, without realizing it. Confirmation bias quickly kills any remainder of independent thought.
It’s a nasty process. If you have ever seen someone have their rational thought destroyed by MAGA, it’s the same thing. Rational discussions are pointless: They always degrade into pre-canned political talking points, whataboutisms and blaming others.
* I have often wondered if he parrots misleading narratives with purpose. ml is a perfect recruiting space for trolls and does function well enough to amplify fake or misleading news, after all.


A minor one and a component of Vitamin B12.


Have a normal, balanced diet if you aren’t extremely active. So yeah, just eat a banana. :)
I run a lot and a sweat a lot, so my electrolyte loss is fairly high. (You can see the buildup of salts on my gear after it dries and before I wash it.) Electrolyte supplements are great for athletes that can’t practically make up the losses with regular food intake.
But… To say that Gatorade and other electrolyte drinks are overused by people who aren’t active is an understatement. Many people simply do not need the extra boost of sugar and salts and it’s just going to get pissed out anyway.
The reason I am a bit vocal about this is that 1. People should actually eat a decent diet just to get these basic salts and 2. Electrolyte supplements are awesome, extremely basic but extremely overused. They are extremely important, but not in the way marketing departments say they are.


Sodium chloride is not the only electrolyte the body needs. It’s fairly important to keep a healthy balance: https://medlineplus.gov/fluidandelectrolytebalance.html


Horses, generally, really like apples.





Electrolytes are electrolytes. Your horse gets a fuck ton more salt and no sugar, but it’s basically all the same shit at similar ratios. The electrolyte compounds all need to be bioavailable so there shouldn’t be major differences there. The biggest difference is likely purity and contamination tolerances. (Contamination would be things like insects, small rocks or sand, etc: Things that would still be non-toxic, but generally reduced for human consumption.)
Edit: Still don’t drink the stuff. The ingredients are scaled for an ~1100lb animal so it should be a no-brainer to get the Gatorade instead.


You are not a 40 year old traveling nurse? I find it hard to believe that a nurse wouldn’t know this.

I don’t think you know how nicotine/tobacco products are used for money laundering. Just Google it.
You seem hell bent on trying to prove these are pointless raids. Maybe they are, but your arguments are just bad.
That’s what happens when oil burns. Specifically, when oil storage tanks burn. Burning oil makes big plumes of thick, oily smoke.
Ukraine managed to get a drone through three (or more) layers of air defense around Moscow, only to drop an FX package? Look… Even I make fun of Russian air defense, but it’s not entirely useless and it does work.
No. It doesn’t make any sense at all, per the above reason. If you send a drone to Moscow, make it through the air defense and have the opportunity to bomb a refinery, just bomb the fucking refinery. Burning oil is your FX package, dipshit.
Oil tanks are big, contain a fuck-ton of oil and burning tanks are a pain in the ass to extinguish. Heat damage alone can shut a refinery down if any high pressure tanks or lines were exposed. They would need to be inspected properly and that isn’t a small task. So yeah, a couple of destroyed tanks is kind of a bad thing. (Also, he just confirmed that is wasn’t an “empty strike”, employing “FX packages”. Shit got blowed up, dawg.)
… narratives, propaganda or whatever… Those are likely Russian videos of Russian oil tanks on fire. No narrative is needed. (I stay away from most state news sites and steer clear of most opinion-based news, blogs or videos. Getting actual information about a conflict is hard enough, thanks. My point: I don’t know the narratives and reading a blog like this just lets me know that the propaganda engine is having to chooch really fucking hard about this.)
Alas, these propaganda blogs are just made to sow doubt with large groups of idiots. It doesn’t matter if they are true or not, what matters is that their future front-line meat waves stay dumb and that .ml posters have another hyperlink to add as a “source”: These links are also for idiots to click that don’t validate any of those sources. This stuff fuels confirmation bias, consciously or not, and regardless if any of it is true.
