  • As someone in gen z, I find that most get scammed trying to buy stupid shit. Discounted v bucks, expensive clothing for stupid cheap, stuff like that. Oh and temu, of course. They also get phished pretty easily as well.

  • Anon recommends a cast iron pan
  • I use a wok and I wish I could use it for everything. I love that little damn thing to bits. I have only seasoned it twice (removed the previous one due to rust) and it can fry an egg fine.

    It handles soap, tomatoes and other acidic foods fine as well. Didn't use any fancy oil, just avocado oil.

    My mom's 300$ tephlon pans don't even last more than 8 months without getting nicks. My Lil fella is 15 years old.

    They want to brainwash into using expensive, disposable, products.

  • oh no! think of the stock market!
  • Or use it to generate hydrogen for simpler, cheaper, more reliable, sustainable hydrogen powered cars.

    We don't even have enough lithium to replace the average country's existing cars, let alone all of them, or literally anything else that requires lithium.

  • What's Your Best Habit?
  • Handtool woodworking, especially if you tackle the hard stuff. I resaw 50% of my stock, by hand, then smooth, by hand. Just in the last 3-4 months when I started taking it seriously, I lost 20 pounds, with basically few dietary changes. It also keeps me so preoccupied I don't think about eating lol.

  • How to find interesting friends as a young adult.

    I have many interests, if not too many. From cooking, woodwork and computers. Many of my friends are academically very successful but are frankly painfully boring and I sometimes feel isolated around them.

    I like to cook when they hang at my house, I'll try to teach them how, some basic tips, etc. As soon as I glanced towards them again I realized they walked off.

    This summarizes a lot of our interactions. As we get to a topic I understand and can speak passionately about, they sort of turn off. They talk to each other fine, but it's often internet drama, school drama or sports.

    I'm not in college\classes and it seems almost impossible to meet others, especially others that are interesting and curious. I find myself bonding most to adults but it's isolating I can't find others my age.

    What's a long standing personal or family mystery that occupies your mind?

    Is there ever something that happened to a family member that you will ever know? Has anyone gone missing under mysterious circumstances? Is the place next to your great grandmother's friend's dad's house totally haunted?

    Posts should (almost) never be locked.

    I think that if an outright war is raging in the comments, let it run it's course. All parties are willing participants, free to disengage at any moment.

    The exceptions should be when illegal content is being shared or illegal activity is occurring (CP, doxxing, etc).

    It's always frustrating when a juicy argument gets locked because it's "unproductive". I was having a great time watching it unfold, both sides hurling both creative and uncreative insults, oblivious to how low they are sinking to. It's great!
