I think this is not only the most upvoted post on Lemmy, but beanposting effectively tested the network and worst case system performance by hitting the database from everywhere at the same time. The fact that Lemmy didn't go down is in itself an amazing feat considering it's never been tested at this scale before. Even if the servers are unstable it shows that the idea is sound.

Where is the traffic coming from? Everywhere, it's coming from everywhere!

Downvoted for misleading description: the beans aren't fucking. Not even snogging.

To be fair, those are British-style baked beans.

I was born and raised in the US (and have returned there) but spent the last 4 years living in London, and British beans in tomato sauce are very different from American baked beans in BBQ sauce. Both have their charms, but British beans are basically a breakfast food as main, American beans are a BBQ side-dish. Beans on Toast is a wonderful British breakfast, but Americans haven't heard of it, and those who have might turn their nose up at it.

Very different cultures, and so much we can learn about multiculturalism for one can of baked beans - no, one picture of a can of baked beans.

So, yeah, I think it deserves and upvote.

If you're missing the UK type it's sold overseas as Heinz English Recipe baked beans. I checked the difference in ingredients. The English ones have extra salt and sugar.

My wife insists the English recipe ones have vinegar in them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I've checked the ingredient list against the standard Heinz beans here in Aus and the quantity of salt and sugar is the only difference. Of course that may vary in other places. Manufacturers always adjust products for local tastes.

multiculturalism

Would you call it a melting pot of cultures?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

If nothing else you struck my curiosity.

Lemme upvote this, since lemmy will upvote everything.

What if you learned that karma is gone? No more dopamine hit for your beans here. Shit posting is now shit posting for only shit posting's sake

Upvote everything!

The wefwef app has a Reddit-style post/comment score in my profile though, and I have been wondering about where it pulls those numbers from if it's true that Lemmy itself does not (usually) keep a sum of those scores?

We are hitting ludicrous meme generation time now.

Or is it bean generation?

My top three flavors of beans:

  • Baked
  • Refried
  • Fucking

I upvote everything just so it hides the post. Am I doing my part?

As a white person I must upvote the beans.
