OR YOU COULD JUST LEAVE THE FUCKING WEBSITE

I'd prefer to steal the golden goose, if that's an option?

And no matter what it's set to, the EULA you clicked through when you signed up for an unrelated service from the same company gives them the permission.

It's just us and our 399 partners.

off by default, turns off after every update, multiple updates per day, please read our 500 page terms of service after every update or you are legally responsible for any legal expenses we incur for reason ever.

Oh you missed the email? Well the deadline to opt out of binding arbitration has already passed.

And then you go to Settings / Privacy / Data and all you find is a link to the privacy policy and terms of service.

So you search online and find several relevant posts on a support forum, such as:

  • I cannot find this setting
  • The "on" option is grayed out
  • I tried to set this to "on" but I got a cryptic error message saying to contact my system administrator

All of them have been open for at least a year, hundreds of users clicked the "I also have this issue" button, and none of them have any useful replies.

Just go to about:dont-grind_my-bones/39a667aa-b5c5-441c-9df9-0f75e3fc588d and configure it there. It's so straightforward and obvious that it's literally your fault if you didn't notice it.

Our telemetry data determined that no one was using it so we decided to drop that feature.

That just happened to me!

I was looking to solve a Linux issue and the Internet said

It's simple. just use "sudo ̪͊̽͊̀̎̇̄̆̾̅̊̕͝͝p̶̗̝̬̾̃̈́́̿͜ͅa̵̹̜̅s̴̠͉̩̖̣̹̞͇̰̻̦͛͂̽̈̅̒͗̉͋͘͝ṡ̵̺̮̫̲̙̙̹̻̹͉͎̣͌͆̔̐̓̊̽́̌̂̓̚̚̚ͅw̸̮̠̪̤̏̍͛̔̚o̶̡̫̟͖͎̣̫̹̰͕̰̝̻͎̽͛͛̃͒͂̆̋̂͜͠r̵͖̯̭̮͗͒̍̅̆͊̕͜͜͝͝d̷̛̛͖̮͍͉̣̙̀̐͂͌͊͌̃̌͂͑́̚͠ ̵̛̱̲̳̫̳̫̟͉͙̎̽̑̈́͌̎̑̀̒̕ͅ1̸̯͍͓̝̦̦̖͖͉͎̪̬̹̝̏͛́͋͗̒̓̇̾̄̍͠1̵̱̭̰̥̹̟̰̲̙͗̽̆́̀̐2̴̹̯̼̲͎̯͈̈́͠͠2̷̰̤̖͓̫͈̅̑́̂͋̈́̎̀̿͐̿̑͠3̴̫̩̫̻̕7̷͎̫̖̦̰̫̳̭͉͎̍͆̔̈̒͑̈́̈̚͝"

How silly of me not to know that.

My favorite is "I had to hack the website by making a userscript to access the option afforded to EU users and I have no idea if it actually affected anything"

Your only option is to not use the service. Fee Fi Fo Fum.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

Fee! Fi! Fo! Fum! I smell the violation of civil liberties

I'm not even sure what ground up bones would do for bread. Is calcium a binding agent or something?

[–] Stamau123 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I looked it up because i also always wondered. Turns out bone marrow can replace the butter used to make bread

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 day ago (2 children)

But.. you don't use butter to make bread. Flour and water, maybe some yeast. If you're using butter to make dough, then it's some kind of pastry.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

you need fat to make toast bread, what a lot of americans and people in the west default to imagining when you say "bread".

the fat prevents longer gluten chains from forming, which makes the bread light and airy, compared to traditional "proper" bread which tends to be denser and chewier and oh no now i'm hankering for levain

[–] Tikiporch 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As an American, what the fuck is toast bread?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago

bread you put in a toaster? or do you people put baguettes in your toasters?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah, certainly there are many different kinds of bread. I'm sure I was overly broad in designating all dough made with butter as pastry. I was responding to the previous comment , which I interpreted as implying that butter(or bonemeal, in a pinch) is a necessary ingredient in bread.

[–] Stamau123 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean you can definitely use butter in a bread, it's just not required

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

In addition, just hear me out: It is giant's bread.
