Fediverse vs Disinformation

Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.
Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.
What's the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.
By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.

I just don't get it.
So you start with A your raw ingredients and if you prepare it so that A is now B the food ready to be cooked and than you end up with C your cooked food I don't understand how the process of A=B, B=C, A now magically = C??? Seems like pseudoscience to me. Where is the mechanism that turns A to C?????
I'm assuming this is supposed to be a joke about proof by induction but that's not how that works and I'm confused lol
I mean they did say they don't get it
We got an induction stove just a couple of months ago and I agree. It's absolutely incredible and I never want to use any other type of cooktop ever again.
Misleading title. Electric stoves don't do shit for asthma, but not having a gas stove does.
Guess what....poorer people don't have induction stoves, and they live in poor areas with high levels of air pollution.
No one does shitty epidemiology quite like US universities. One wonders how many appliance companies funded that "research".
I'd like to go 100% electric. The plan is to install another 5k ish kWh of solar and reinsulate.
If you can afford it, install the spray foam insulation that goes on the underside of the roof. We have a Habitat home/mortgage so it's built for energy efficiency. Haven't touched the AC since the hurricane two weeks ago. It takes hella heat to warm it up inside and I could almost go the winter without heat. Our power bill tops out at $180 in the summer.
I am worried about the horror stories of the off gassing with the spray foam... maybe that has improved. Also, how is the moisture handled?
Gas stoves suck for more than just asthma, but electric stove just suck, period. I hates them. I miss my gas stove at my last apartment, even if it otherwise was unhealthy. lol.
The thing I hate most about electric is the slow response. When making something like a roux, you REALLY want to turn down the heat and have the heat be down.
There's mitigations - pulling the pot/skillet off the burner - but gas just works so much better.
But...... I have electric again, and it's fine...... just...... sucks a little. heh.
yeah, we're designing our dream ~~home~~ RV. i'm planning a small electric range on the insides with a nice gas grill i can use outside. that way i can use either or both when i need
Ooo, best of both worlds. Awesome!
Buddy had one where panels opened in the back and made a mini kitchen with a swing out grill. It was dope.
have people asthma been triggered by gas stove when its not producing any smoke, especially with the ventilation on?
I'm not clear either. I had never known there were any health issues at all until the last year or so.
Yes, yes, that's it! Pass the ~~savings~~ blame onto the "customers", per usual. It's totally gas stoves that're the real cause of our collective distress, not the untold millions of tons of untreated waste the same corpo fucks dump into the world, unchecked and unopposed. Yeah, that's the solution. 🖕🏼
Om no, but there is abundant evidence gas stoves excaberate asthma and I don't know about you but I definitely have encountered the idea that gas stoves were better than cheap electric stoves for years and years, which is why I shared this article.
I'm not stating otherwise, I'm pointing out that this is strawman agitprop.
It is not, it is practical health advice about kitchen appliances....
Are you okay? You don't seem very stable
Thanks, sweetie. You good with nibbling on the crumbs they deem safe for you to have? Have fun with that.
I'm sure the state of the world would immediately be solved if gas ranges were banned worldwide, yep. This is such an important topic among the slew of corpo greed issues threatening to end civilization as we know it.
FFS, the way things are going, no one'll live long enough to contract the cancers they cause.
You can huff paint thinner all day if you want but not every study and news article needs to solve every problem in this world. There are people suffering from asthma in this world and if staying away from gas stoves improves their quality of life this info should be spread. Just because you are a cynical schozoposter doesn't mean that you are always right
Then it should've said as much, instead of the doom& gloom it's relying on. 🤷🏼♂️
Where do you see doom and gloom?
is unhealthy and secretly making your life worse! You should totally get rid of it and buy instead! It will solve your problems and make you feel whole again, I promise!
This, exactly, and far too many seen just fine with that line of BS. It's almost like that don't know that "expiration" dates (or "best by") are just marketing to pressure shops to refill their orders more frequently. 🤷🏼♂️
Wasn't it just last week that they cause more asthma?
Nope
