I bet appearance is a 4, but taste is an 11/10

Seems like you fell on your head a few too many times as a kid.

The irony of you saying that is definitely lost on you.

Did you just edit your whole comment.. for what? Are you that ashamed of being an asshole? Then say sorry and go touch grass.

What a paragon of fucking justice you are. Truly.

Definitely not like you find a post about stereotypes, see someone just cracking back at what is obviously an American, and decide that the American can make fun of their entire country but not vice versa.

Clearly perfectly rational behaviour. How about you take that hike, dude.

You sound like you are. That's not a compliment.

Imagine only finding it toxic when it's against your own country. You've got a few screws loose.

What's the scary folk lore from your culture? in c/[email protected]

The Saci-Pererê is a Brazilian folklore about a one-legged man who lives in the forest, and loves to play tricks on people. He uses his cap* (autocorrect) to disappear and reappear elsewhere, sets animals loose, steals kid's toys, etc. Not scary but it's what came to mind.

I love the hidden references to Sisyphus' myth as well.

Personally I think they're sick. My favourite is definitely Edge, with Tubes a close second. What about you all?

Why do most US lawsuits settle instead of going to trial? (lemmy.world)

It seems to me like this is just a bribe to shut up about the cause of the lawsuit. It doesn't lead to justice, and is not punitive enough in the case of large corporations.

I find this disgusting and immoral, but maybe I'm getting something wrong..? I hope so.

Please explain to me why this is, I'm getting irrationally angry at the fact that no one goes to trial for anything, including environmental hazards, rape, etc.

Edit: Found a source that details all the good reasons to go to trial instead of settling. Personally, an admission of guilt and real consequences to a misdeed are incomparably more important than a slap on the wrist like a settlement. https://www.askadamskutner.com/personal-injury/dont-settle-outside-of-court/

Edit 2: I see all the replies mentioning time and costs as the biggest reasons. And I get that, rationally. But sometimes people are irrational, I can't believe 90% of lawsuits settle... (actually it's 95% - https://thelawdictionary.org/article/what-percentage-of-lawsuits-settle-before-trial-what-are-some-statistics-on-personal-injury-settlements/ )

I'm thinking of buying the cheapest Nespresso machine (media.s-bol.com)

Does anyone have it? The Essenza Mini. It's relatively cheap, so I'm just wondering if it's worth it. Please tell me your thoughts!

P.S. If it's relevant at all, I'm in Europe. And looking at the cheapest one because... student life

It's confusing for new users, and this instance in particular has 7k users but no interactions. It's a bot army, with the top user being called @admin.

Extremely shady and misleading.

P.S. I was told I'd have a higher chance of reaching the correct people by cross-posting, I'm not trying to spam so do tell me if it's the incorrect place to send this.
