World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I don't know if it helps anyone, but you don't need eggs to survive
Exactly, hamburgers, fries, kfc and pizza are all egg-free. What do they need eggs for, breakfast menu at macdonalds?
Doesn't KFC use eggs in the batter?
What does it look like when one of the world's superpowers can't even ensure they can provide such a basic thing as eggs to their citizens.
If it was any other country at any other time, I doubt this would even hit the news. But it's the US after refusing vaccinations, losing a bunch of stock to a disease, all whilst claiming the egg prices will be lowered, so here we are.
It's called a revolt.
I feels very Soviet Uniony, but the US has always a lot in common with Russia..
The United States isn't a superpower.
It's just a country with a lot of guns.
It's the foremost superpower by the definition of the word.
Most of my cookie recipes use eggs!
Look up vegan alternatives to eggs. I know applesauce can be used in cookies as my wife has done this. Also if you need eggs in savory recipes avocados have the same fat to protein ratio and work great
Aquafaba from garbanzo beans is an excellent egg substitute for baking.
The cool thing is theres like a dozen different alternatives that all taste different, which cab be overwhelming at first but you have a lot more choice as well. Apple sauce is excellent for a lot of sweet breakfast recipes and pastries. We've used bananas too, and like you said avocado is a good choice too.
Don't avocados have an insane ecological footprint?
*compared to other plants.
They are associated with less carbon emissions per kg than eggs. Normally the real issue is that we're exporting the ecological impacts, but if people are importing eggs, avocados are probably better of both fronts. Source
I personally use flax as an egg replacer most of the time.
Yup and are comparable in price to eggs currently I didn't say it was a practical alternative just that they work as a perfect replacement. More of just highlighting there are options.
One of my kids is super allergic to eggs so we've gone years without them in the house and found ways to adjust recipes due to that and other food allergies.
plus, nowhere near as cruel.
Oh man, most of my egg recipes do too
What will I eat with my bacon?!
More bacon.
Perhaps a couple of Lipitor? In my house we've started saving money by substituting Wegovy for eggs in our recipes.
