What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

SPAM is great. I will hear no slander.

[–] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Does Spam need meat to be great? Feels like an easy swap to me!

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago

Totally agree. I love SPAM but I'll bet a non-meat version is totally doable.

[–] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Are you Hawaiian?

E: or maybe Filipino?

Nm this has been covered.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 20 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Neither! SPAM is cheap fatty salty protein. What's not to love? It's isn't worse than a hot dog.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 25 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Your face isn't worse than a hot dog

(Things I brag about on my tinder profile)

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 months ago

Thank you, I moisturize.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Lips and assholes, in cube form!

You just declared war on the entire country of Hawaii.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lol, what? Yeah, the kingdom of Hawaii, right?

I can't tell if we're actually saying different things.

I thought that a country has to be recognized as a country by other countries whereas a kingdom has to... do... something different. And royalty or something?

Fuck it, let's go back to arguing. Yes! Kingdom!

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I’m confused, I’m telling you its the country of Hawaii and you’re saying it’s the country of Kingdom and I’m just trying to say they love SPAM and now you’re picking fights.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well when you say it like that, I sound like a moron.

But I'm feeling stubbornly ignorant enough to support what I'm supposedly arguing.

The country of Kingdom loves Hawaii which is why they constantly spam my email. If you don't forward this message to 10 friends in the next two days, Jesus is gonna sneak into your room while you're sleeping and punch you in the stomach.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh I was hoping he’d slip me little Jesus if you know what I mean.

Jesus comes twice.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

Okay, but only cuz you've got an honest face.

Tonight, Jesus is gonna nail you

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Since when is Hawaii a country brah?

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The House of Kamehameha will rise again and everyone will be too scared to do anything because no one is gonna wanna wait to find out if they can actually do that DBZ shit.

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

In the next episode of DBZ, will Goku finish the spirit bomb in time for the end of the battle in 5 minutes, only the next 5 episodes will tell,

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Can you please stay on track here?

We’re talking about SPAM and the country of Hawaii’s love for it.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh you want to fight too?

Come at me bro.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Geez the text isn’t centered or even fitting on the paper.

You don’t give a shit at all about me, do you?

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hey! It was top and bottom centered and I changed it to bottom and top in a minimal effort!

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

You're despicable

[–] forgotaboutlaye@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago
