  • WanaBana Apple Cinnamon Fruit Puree pouches, Schnucks cinnamon-flavored applesauce pouches and variety pack and Weis cinnamon applesauce pouches were recalled

    it was actually the cinnamon in the applesauce being cut with lead to significantly increase it's weight, thus it's value. It was an Ecuadoran cinnamon processor called Carlos Aguilera

  • they used to put brick dust in chocolate bars, and sawdust in bread

    edit: heck, they just caught someone recently intentionally putting lead in applesauce cinnamon that was used in applesauce, which has been used off and on as a sweetener since at least ancient rome, where a bunch of people went crazy and died from consuming a sweetener made by boiling grapes in lead pots

  • I think in proper cyberpunk, no individual is able to meaningfully change the system/improve world circumstances on their own, including a CEO of a gigantic megacorp. So a CEO can make things worse with their megacorp, but they can't make them better.

  • I haven't bought a capcom game since this

  • IMO the original comic shouldn't be altered. I like the caption being in the title of the post though, but I also like it having the publication date. I guess my ideal would be unaltered image, plus a post title of "

    <Frame Caption>

    |

    <Publication Date>

    ", but that might be too much for you to bother with

  • those are all different continuities, so this would be the 4th adaptation. The art, especially the character design, is just like in the manga so it seems like it's going to be a more direct adaptation of the source material

  • it's a reference to the 1985 Filipino action movie Blood Debts

  • There's this gofundme, apparently run by someone in Washington State named Lisa Curtis (and a group called Army of Jane), but I don't know how to verify if either of those are legit. I'm always worried about unscrupulous actors stealing donations in these situations

  • rule

  • I still don't fw capcom after they canceled mega man legends 3

  • The famous one is season one of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. In 2021 there was Peach Boy Riverside

  • For those wondering, this is Junji Ito's Frankenstein adaptation

  • real boomer humor, this one

  • I don't want to strangle anyone's project in the crib, but it needs post attribution at the very least. I can understand it being a project in the early stages, but it's not hard to include info on the source of the posts.

    However, if they had that but weren't yet open source and had only one-way federation, I would be open to giving them a date to hit for those. I don't like the idea of one-way federation, nor of federation with a closed-source project, but to take the dev at face value and allow them a time frame of 6 months or so to clear it up would be acceptable.

    All that being said, as it stands now I would vote to defederate due to the lack of attribution. It is the very least that could be done and shouldn't be hard to implement.

  • I hate when headlines (well, people in general) use codenames for hardware. I'm apparently supposed to know off the top of my head that Arrow Lake is the newest Intel Core Ultra series cpus released a couple of months ago.

  • I think it's probably because some chrizzo complained, but I hope they're actually alluding to paranormal activity

    Should we set a 24 hour voting period on c/Agora?

    Currently there is no rule for when a vote is over, or when the vote is tallied. I propose we allow 24 hours from post creation to allow everyone in the community to have a chance to see and consider a proposal and vote. After 24 hours from post creation, the 'polls' would close and the votes can be tallied. Any votes cast after 24 hours would be invalid.

    Edit: some good points made, I withdraw this proposal
