I don't think about Jamie Oliver

Only if they seem suspicious to me as trying to push some kind of idea. Usually posts with leading questions such as "anyone else notice the anecdotal negative experience portrayed as norm", comments where someone blames a demographic for something, posts that are on topic but have a blatant other purpose meant to start shit (such as cat pics in c/cats held by soldiers), etc.
In too many cases, the user is really adamant about whatever they have to say, and I just end up blocking them.
Yeah that sounds much easier
She did actually agree to have that information shared with the other passengers and then still bought all the peanuts. I'm not saying she's faking her allergy or something, I'm trying to wrap my head around her train of thought here. You can also take a car, a train, a bus, all means of transportation where the transport company doesn't sell you peanuts. Yeah it's less convenient but shit man, it won't kill you.
Ideally she wouldn’t have to, peanut allergies are pretty well known and if we cared about increasing access for people not having peanuts for sale on planes is a pretty simple step
100% agree with this though
Yeah I had that thought too but if this were the case, would you take a life threatening risk that no one else on the plane has peanuts? Wouldn't you drive instead? Or take a means of public transportation where they don't regularly sell your allergen?
I guess I sort of understand, this is an enclosed space with recycled AC, but it just seems unlikely that if it was this severe she'd take a life threatening risk like this. Right?
Take it easy, man. Clearly they're wrong, and I don't know better either, would you like to contribute something that'll inform us or just get mad on the internet?
One thing in advance: Leah Williams was not forced to buy all packages of peanuts on board – on the contrary, our purser tried to offer her an alternative solution by informing all passengers sitting around her about Leah’s allergy. She agreed at first but then decided to still buy all the packages.
The airline says it is “unable to guarantee that the aircraft is free of foodstuffs that may trigger an allergic reaction, such as peanuts”, because passengers are allowed to bring their own food onboard.
I feel bad for her but I have to wonder, how does this person function on a day to day basis? If their allergy is so severe that other people eating peanuts around her would harm her, how does she leave the house? How did she navigate the airport?
Champ & chump are not the only options, and I'd say neither
It all comes down to the gimmick not being worth an additional thousand euros to the price of my phone.
I don't think durability would be a problem for me as I already baby my glass back device and I haven't been using screen protectors for years with no problem. The downgrade in cameras isn't that big of a deal for me as most pictures I take are macro, and as it turns out phones nowadays are horrendous dogshit at it anyway.
I think I'd enjoy the gimmick, I used to own a flip phone as a teenager, it's just not worth a thousand euros extra. I'd probably add another 150 or 200 euros to my pixel to buy a folding phone.
This post breaks rules 1 and 3, but basically what the other comments said. It's the biggest instance so it's the biggest target. Some weeks ago there was a guy squatting community names and they got banned, after which they spammed new communities with random names, and the instance has been DDOS'd repeatedly. TBH no hard feelings towards lemmy.world, but I've switched to another one, used lemmy-migrate, and just resumed my scrolling. It's not really worth it to stay there at the moment.
