Yeah over simplifying it a bit, and that’s funny that the stupid thing I found wasn’t even stupid enough.

But was mostly trying to impart that we should be happy for modern languages, because for every line you write in a modern language, it’ll do a dozen things on the back end for you that in assembly you’d need to do by hand.

To send the point home even more, this is how in python you make a line of text display:

print("Hello World")

This is the same thing, in assembly (According to a blog I found. I can’t read this. I am not build better.)

  org  0x100        ; .com files always start 256 bytes into the segment

    ; int 21h is going to want...

    mov  dx, msg      ; the address of or message in dx
    mov  ah, 9        ; ah=9 - "print string" sub-function
    int  0x21         ; call dos services

    mov  ah, 0x4c     ; "terminate program" sub-function
    int  0x21         ; call dos services

    msg  db 'Hello, World!', 0x0d, 0x0a, '$'   ; $-terminated message

But python turns that cute little line up top, into that mess at the bottom.

I like python. Python is cute. Anyone can read python.

Yeah usually they’d cut kids off from lunch after like 10ish dollars of lunch debt for my school, like 5 meals behind max.

So a class worth of school lunch debt legit might be like 100$, and prevent a handful from being allowed lunch anymore. The level of petty is absurd.

Straight up I was conservative as a young teen, because that’s what EVERYONE was here in Utah when I was in the LDS church.

Now I just keep floating more and more left as time goes on.

Haha makes sense! I forgot I posted it, but as an experiment I actually did this just to see how hard it is.

But I mean the main things you need are calories, vitamins, and complete proteins. Flour is the cheapest calorie you can get in the US, so cooking your own biscuits, tortillas, sour dough, and gravy will always be the most calories for your buck.

Soy is a complete protein by itself, but rice and beans together are as well. Rice and beans is also a king of calories per price, so there is a reason I put it on there, and a reason you are alive it sounds like it!

The last thing is vitamins from veggies/fruit. In my post I used small amounts of dried fruit in oatmeal, peas in gravy, then tomato sauce. So getting a mix cheap frozen/canned/dried fruit then having a bit of that each day will help. As will making gravies/sauces with different veggies/stir fries.

I was able to do it under $2, and I might try it again with all different meals to try and make sure I can practice what I preach. I make one off cheap meals a lot, but don’t always do a full day.

Hey if you have a legal place to hunt, go wild!

Buying anything but the cheapest of meats these days is eye watering. I’m not one for hunting, but I keep debating going foraging since I live near mountains in Utah. Spend the day hiking in nice weather and end the day with food you normally wouldn’t have? Sounds like a good day.

Hey man if you have a legal place to hunt, go wild!

Buying anything but the cheapest of meats these days is eye watering.

My man I don’t think you belong the the MARXIST LENNIST instance if you’re this aggro at someone saying something as generic as “Billionaires exploited people to get their billions”

If the option is you all not eating enough, and eating primarily cheap bulk foods, do pick the cheap bulk foods. With cheap seasonings and making your own tortillas, breads, and gravies, you can have a large variety using the same 20ish cheap base ingredients.

So when you want cheap protein, what is affordable in denmark? Cheeses? Lentils? Yogurt? Sounds like it’s a lot more where you live, so curious what is the good choice there.

Ahh interesting! In Denmark what is the cheap protein replacement? In the US it’s mostly all dried beans.

This is ML memes. If you came in here expecting us not to be over the top about “seize the means of production” and “eat the rich” then you gotta pay more attention.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m far enough to the left to participate in ML.

Capitalism demands you eat legumes or go into debt.

The rebellion demands you stay alive how you need to and organize, which in the US means eating cheap proteins as you gotta.

You’re not wrong! But I felt like some people wouldn’t think of split peas, and wanted to call out more than just “beans”

By all means, show me some billionaires that never took advantage of anyone to get their billions and actually earned it. I’m down to change my view.

You’ll have to clarify what is wrong with my methods.

Where are you buying dried beans?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BBVFBGW?tag=sacapuntas9-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1

These are 1.28 a pound, if you have a winco or costco you can get much cheaper.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09SHBKHTH?tag=sacapuntas9-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1

These are 2 dollars a pound.

So like you would turn this into hummus and eat it with bread/tortillas you made from flour.

I have no idea. There is a decent variety of foods that are 1000 calories for a dollar, and maybe combining all of them together is enough variety. But I’m not a doctor.

“Hey won’t this get us banned… oh right, ML!”

If they bring armed thugs to the strikes, only fair if strikers do as well. Negotiation only happens between parties on equal footing.

If I could get us all to protest grocery store prices by eating nothing but staples whenever there is a random price increase I would die happy XD
