I root through the bins of local stores. They throw out food past the marked date even if it isn't spoiled. I've cut my food expenditure in half. Why waste money and food?
@fesshole check *too good to go* and *food sharing*
Same idea but without the food entering a trashcan in between -

@fesshole be careful, some stores drench the food they throw in bleach

@fesshole Careful: some places don't like that.
@aeveltstra @fesshole It's even illegal in Germany, regarded as theft by the cops.

@fesshole In France, stores are not allowed to throw out perfectly good food anymore. They have to give it to food banks. It's the law.

Forgot to say: pay attention to the ratings. Some are amazing, some are less so.

@virbonus @aeveltstra @fesshole Illegal in some parts of the US, too.

Same idea but without the food entering a trashcan in between@shadowwwind not sure about other regions, but TGTG here still requires you to pay, albeit much less than its original worth. Though the downside is you don't get to pick and choose.
It's a good suggestion though. :)
We used to have another one, Throw No More I think it was? Which would list all discounted goods due to expiring sell-by-dates/use-by-dates from various shops, but unfortunately that's not available anymore as several other grocery stores have implemented similiar functionality into their own individual apps... so now you have to check several apps instead of a single one. :( Again, not free though.

@fesshole@FiXato @shadowwwind @fesshole The shops around here (Germany) have boxes of near best before items at reduced prices.
I love it, it means I'll try things I wouldn't otherwise buy and I spend less doing it.
I don't think I've often gone on to buy the products at full price, but I do have a freezer full of organic meat.

@severtz same here. They are usually the first shelves I browse through. Though some shops are better at it than others. Yesterday I saw bags of mixed lettuce at the local Coop Extra that were so soggy and discoloured that I can't imagine anyone buying them...

@shadowwwind @fesshole@FiXato @shadowwwind @fesshole UK? In the shops I go to there it's usually yellow stickers, ironically very similar to the security stickers on expensive products!
What I watch then is the discount. 10% off is not worth it, especially if the "meal deal" price is lower.

@severtz Norway. Usually it's 40%-50%, though some go up to 70% (though then the expiration date usually has passed several days).

@fesshole Good for you. Local supermarkets where I used to live took to locking the bins. Can't have those homeless people feeding themselves now can we? ☠🚫

@fesshole it hurts my soul to know just how much food waste is occurring

They have to catch you first.
Most fesshole posters are in UK, and in the suburbs of a provincial town during the evenings and weekends there are few cops around and those who are on duty are occupied with stuff like DUI, domestic violence and other real crimes and don't have the resources to go chasing someone raiding bins who will likely be long gone by the time the patrol vehicle even gets there..

@vfrmedia @virbonus @aeveltstra @fesshole It depends on how annoyed the rich folks get. If they see folks dumpster diving they make it happen.
I've also seen it used as a pretext to raid and clear out encampments.

@drwho @virbonus @aeveltstra @fesshole
the manager at a supermarket near some posh flats in an affluent suburb of Reading, SE England (a bit like British Seattle) once pulled the breaker on the outside lighting so yuppies wouldn't see folk raiding the skip and call the cops (he was fed up with being woken up in the night by the cops, and even the officers weren't too happy about being sent some distance, this was in the days when radio scanners still worked and I heard them grumbling about the callout)

@mau @aitech la domanda, per l'umano, nasce sempre da un modo di sentirsi vivere in un mondo quando i profili di mondo che incontra suscitano sorpresa, spaesamento, curiosità... Un fenomeno estraneo a una macchina che, in quanto tale, non ha né mondo né contesto.
La domanda "come mai la mela cade da un albero?" me la faccio perché ho una precompressione pratica e vissuta di cosa significa stare vicino, sopra o sotto un albero, da solo o con altri... A partire da quella domanda, se allestisco un esperimento per trovare una risposta non è l'apparato sperimentale che mi fornisce una risposta ma il mio modo di riflettere sulle eventuali invarianze che il dispositivo allestito mi restituisce.
Esiste una interessante ricerca che mostra come la rimozione delle virgolette, un tempo impiegate nella ricerca sulla IA dai primi ricercatori quando parlavano di "intelligenza" o "apprendimento" ecc..., sia stata una precisa operazione di manipolazione che con la ricerca non aveva nulla a che vedere.
Secondo me è importante, quando scriviamo su un social o generiamo testi destinati a non esperti, che ci si sforzi di non dare per scontati significati nei termini che usiamo e se possibile usare le virgolette in riferimento a termini che pertengono l'umano.
Non sarebbe male tenere sempre presente che, nonostante la fascinazione costruita dalle narrative, quando interagiamo con un calcolatore stiamo interagendo con un insieme di porte logiche gestite dall'algebra di Boole, cioè con dei meccanismi come quelli in figura.

Le etichette personalizzate per i membri dei gruppi su Signal sono apparse poche settimane fa ma con un limite evidente: non c’era modo di controllare chi potesse modificarle. Con la beta 8.3 per Android quel limite sparisce. Adesso gli amministratori del gruppo possono scegliere se il permesso di cambiare le etichette spetta solo a loro oppure a tutti i partecipanti, esattamente come già funziona per altre impostazioni di gruppo.
È una piccola cosa, ma fa differenza in contesti dove i gruppi Signal vengono usati in modo strutturato, per esempio in team di lavoro o comunità organizzate.
Il resto della beta è fatto soprattutto di correzioni: i messaggi ora vengono marcati come letti anche nella modalità a doppio pannello, è stato risolto un crash per le chiamate in arrivo quando l’app gira negli spazi privati di Android, e le GIF tornano ad animarsi correttamente dopo essere usciti dal visualizzatore multimediale. C’è anche un avviso che compare quando si tenta di salvare contenuti in qualità ridotta, così l’utente sa cosa sta scaricando prima di farlo.
Chi usa Obtanium per gestire gli aggiornamenti di Signal al di fuori del Play Store deve abilitare i tag pre-release per ricevere la beta.
