Idk I’m not dependent on it. I don’t drink coffee every day but sometimes I’ll drink a lot. It doesn’t really effect me much when I drink it and I can easily skip coffee for days at a time so it’s hard to call it a problem.

Regardless, the FDA says that 400mg of caffeine per day is safe for healthy adults so the 390mg lemonade is fine.

Dunkin serves their large iced coffees in 30oz cups. I also will frequently drink a whole pot of coffee throughout the day. 390mg of caffeine is really not that significant for the average person.

It’s an imperfect comparison because sex workers sell their body and take on risks that way. Drug dealers sell a product and aren’t necessarily endangering themselves in the same way.

Dude. Have you been to taco bell? You can get a well over 2000 calorie meal for like $15

Welcome to lemmy. I hate big corporations but some of the people on this site will blame amazon when they stub their toe.

I assume because some fucking ghoul noticed people liked taking them for their cars so now we just don’t get napkins!

They were probably just out and too busy to restock or something. It happens. Never been to a fast food place where they don’t provide napkins and I steal napkins from the taco bell I live near regularly. What a weird overreaction.

This meme will now be my desktop image.

20oz is pretty standard from what I've seen for large hot coffees. I believe that the dunkin large iced coffees are like 30oz(while hot is 20). Relatively standard sizes in the US tbh.

It absolutely does not. 100mg per what? They list different quantities of each drink on that source. If you look at it from a mg/fl-oz perspective, you'll see that the lemonades are on par with coffee.

Ok so it actually has less caffeine then because the lemonade has 260mg/20 fl oz. Are you looking at the calorie count by mistake? Either way, a 8mg difference isn't that significant because different coffees will have variations in caffeine content along the same lines.

It's the same amount of caffeine as coffee has. It literally says it on the sign.

Whatever it is called with that kind of caffeine content you warning label it with listing of exactly how much caffeine it has.

They have always had signage directly on the dispenser with the caffeine content.

It's roughly the same as a cup of coffee. 8 fl oz cup of coffee is 96mg caffeine which puts a 20 fl oz cup at about 240mg and 30 fl oz at about 360mg. The charged lemonades have about 260 and 390, respectively. This is literally just a case of not reading the sign that clearly indicates how much caffeine is in each serving.

I mean, it does help to read the sign when you're getting your drink. The caffeine content is fairly clearly indicated.

That's 100% placebo. I'm a professional recording and mixing engineer and have done ABX tests in rooms with speakers that cost as much as a new car and struggled. Not to mention the tens of thousands of dollars in acoustic treatment in those rooms. 320kbps is guaranteed to be indistinguishable from lossless on $100 speakers in what's likely a horrible sounding room.

I'm sure he's changed a lot since then lol

Nate Bargatze had a pretty good joke about the same premise:

Wikipedia has a more specific definition in the first paragraph:

Astroturfing is the practice of hiding the sponsors of a message or organization (e.g., political, advertising, religious, or public relations) to make it appear as though it originates from, and is supported by, grassroots participants. It is a practice intended to give the statements or organizations credibility by withholding information about the source's financial backers.

I think it's pretty hard to argue that labor unions can be astroturfing. It's not like they have a lot of wealthy donors who are secretly trying to push narratives to encourage workers organizing.

Astroturfing is:

The disguising of an orchestrated campaign as a "grass-roots" event

I used some dating apps on and off for about 4 years and got probably a couple dozen or so genuine not bot matches. Most of which didn't last for more than a message or two. Even ran my profile by some of my women friends who I trust and they said it looked good. While obviously it works for some people, the experience for most people isn't that great. These apps make their money by keeping people on the platform so getting matches goes against their main profit motive. The traditional methods work a lot better.
