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.

Wow. I had no idea the Danes were such wussies. Too spicy. Lol
*I stand by what I said. The 2x and 3x are not very terrible on the spicy scale. The article claims the 3x is around 13,000 shu. I'm actually guessing that's a typo/mistake and it's supposed to be 130,000 SHU. Jalapeños are usually around 10,000 to 20,000 and the noodles are hotter than that. Serrano peppers float around 90k or so. Habanero peppers are usually 150k or more. Peppers vary wildly based on growing conditions.
I've tried them. They are REALLY fucking spicy. Most likely a typo.
I eat them all the time, but I'm a freak of nature that uses hot sauces like mad dog 357 gold edition and da bomb on all my food. I think jalapeños to me are about as spicy to pickles for most people.
I've had to deal with people think fresh ground black pepper and Costco pickles are too intense. I generally suggest they cook at home instead.
Sriracha red is about the most you can throw at people not accustomed to spiciness before they get more than mildly uncomfortable, that is, people who actually still taste all of it, haven't build a tolerance. That's about 3000 scoville.
Yes, people eat jalapenos over here. With other stuff. Habaneros? Only people eating those pure are people thinking they look cool doing it.
Also, IMNSHO, nothing above about 10000 should be eaten without Szechuan pepper. And you can definitely start adding it as low as 2000.
