It’s definitely not just you.

Virtually any company big enough to make a worthwhile phone is going to do terrible things. Think a given company is an exception? They won’t be once they get larger.

That being said, the fact that “everybody does it” doesn’t make it okay. The “blue vs green bubble” shit is nonsense that’s totally unnecessary.

That would depend entirely on people actually posting to the right community and actually following rules. 100% of the time. Won’t happen!

This will go away on its own, and will be replaced by something else just as silly (like beans did, and a dozen other things I can’t even remember, because nobody posts them anymore).

I’ll bet there is a website that calculates this stuff…

There is. Have fun!

Damn, that’s sad. I have nothing but pity for anyone who considers themselves a “true” or “professional” sea lion.

When I’m not sure, I just give them the benefit of the doubt. For example, there’s a good chance that the person replying to me speaks English well, but it’s not their first language. Also, their cultural norms might be very different from my own. It could be a simple misunderstanding, too. Overreacting would just make things worse.

When it’s obvious that the person replying is just being a pedantic nuisance, though, I merely stop responding. They may think they’ve “won”, but so what? I can go to bed knowing I don’t waste my time sealioning.

Pretty sure any dairy product and any meat is a non-Kosher combination. I’m not an expert, though.

Well, that makes it a lot easier. Thanks!

Yeah, but to eat Kosher you can’t serve meat and cheese together. If you go to a Kosher deli in New York, for example, if you want cheese on your sandwich they’ll serve you the cheese on a separate plate. You have to put the cheese on yourself.

So, what’s on the burgers isn’t considered “cheese”, or it IS cheese, but served on the side, or McDonald’s just said “fuck it” and serves cheeseburgers that aren’t Kosher. My guess is #1. It isn’t technically “cheese”, but some sort of “processed cheese food” crap. They already do that with their milkshakes, which don’t actually contain any milk.

They probably get away with it because it isn’t really “cheese” as most people define it.

When I started typing, I thought that was a joke, but now I’m genuinely curious.

McDonald’s is gross. This is probably the most severe consequence that the IDF will ever pay.

Meanwhile, some world leaders are absolutely perplexed as to why their citizens aren’t choosing to have children.
