      Between irony, sarcasm, Poe’s Law, human-made hoaxes, AI generated fakes, the low emotional valence of text, and the absurd pseudo-optimism of tech companies looking for the next big thing, there is no such thing as real or fake on the internet anymore.

        Sure, but either this does or does not exist. I get how having to always be on the lookout for what’s real and what isnt is exhausting. And all the things you listed have definitely rapidly exacerbated the issue in the last few years, but that doesnt mean that what’s real and what’s fake suddenly dont matter anymore. At least to me.

          It’s not that it doesn’t matter. Having a sense of reality is incredibly important. It’s simply, the further we go, the less access we all have to any sense of reality that can be transmitted by essentially any medium.

    Any details on this? Is the plan to just let anyone sell whatever food they damn well please? Commercial kitchen licensing and safe food handling licenses exist for a damn good reason. These regulations were written in bloody diarrhea.

    Might be breaking an NDA

    Unless they made you sign an NDA when you were invited to the closed beta, i doubt you’re breaking an NDA. The most they can do is revoke your access to the closed beta i think.

    Also, 3 hour old sourdough with a bid that ends in 2 hours… Hmm, i love sourdough from 5 hours ago… Very fresh.

      If they signed an NDA, I would expect ebay to suspend the account if caught. There are different ways that could happen. This assumes this thing is even real.

        They don’t need an NDA to suspend your account, just terms in the EULA.

        NDA is for when you involve a court.

      I usually leave my sourdough to cure for 24 hours before I slice it. Improves the texture. Lets the gluten solidify.

      High hydration, so letting it dry out a bit is fine.

          Oh, I make two loaves and you bet we go to TOWN on that first one. I’ll give it 20 minutes in the pan, then 20 minutes out of the pan, or, if we’re hungry and impatient, I’ll do a cold water bath in the pan and then pull it out to airdry as long as I can stand. :)

          With this particular bread, if you cut it too early, it’s kinda gooey. It needs a little time to come to temp.

    Just looked up legality and Internet is telling me maybe because “Cottage food laws”. News to me.

    Sounds like it’s time to get a bigger slow cooker if I could sell a batch of stew for this kinda cash. Delivering by bike for minimum wage is shit, but if you own the business and get that kinda money it suddenly beats most regular jobs and starts looking tempting.

      I can slap together a killer pot of chili in about 15 minutes (with few secret ingredients that make it truly great), and then it just needs a few hours to simmer. It’s great then, but it is amazing after sitting in the fridge all night.

      I’d sell it cold, maybe even frozen, making it easy to transport. Just give it a few minutes in the microwave, adjust the heat to taste with red pepper flakes and/or cayenne/chili pepper, and it will blow your mind.

      I wouldn’t mind trying to sell it, and see how it’s received.

    it is weird that there is bidding for this instead of just all being “buy it now”. Who wants to plan several hours ahead for probabilistic takeout you probably won’t even get, to maybe hypothetically save several dollars?

      You’re forgetting that after the few hours wait, you then need to bribe/bid/whatever whichever shithead “gig professional” they get to deliver it, Ubereats, Lyft, Hinge

      Good news, if you are already used to using gig workers, you’re already used to hours old cold food. It’s got SyNeRgY
