YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

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 YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.



Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **



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-YSK posts.

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



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

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

If you are a member, sympathizer 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- The 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.



Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.

If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

There is no way these beans all have the same cooking time

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 18 points 13 hours ago (4 children)

Just cook them longer. You can't over-cook beans.

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 12 hours ago

Not universally true but in the context of soup yeah fair point

I'm unemployed and involuntarily vegan for health reasons. Dried mixed beans, brown rice, and frozen vegetables are keeping me alive.

Wait until you hear about fruit!

[–] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 32 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

I'm a scientist. Beans are a fruit, of the musical variety.

[–] 69420@lemmy.world 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

What happens when you eat them more? As a scientist, that is.

Moreover, we've found significant correlations between the quantity of consumed legumes with the frequency and duration of flatus events. This relationship may be exponential. Further studies are needed to understand the upper bounds.

There's way more than fifteen beans in there. I'd say there's at least like 200.

I prefer 239 bean soup. Yes, it must be exactly 239 beans, not even one bean more.

If 239 bean soup had even just one more bean, it would be too farty bean soup.

Or a ham hock. Or both.

With an average-sized spoon, every spoonful could be a different type of 6 bean soup—it’s like getting five thousand soups in one!

15 choose 6 == 15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 /(6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) == 5005

Wow, I did the math thinking, no, hoping you were wrong, but 5k is right on the money. You must have done the math. Good show sir
