The Hand will only take care of it if you have that feature enabled in Awesomemod. By default, it's disabled.

You're in the wrong section. This is for Sims 3.

I expected vegetarian Sims to get a positive moodlet from eating fruit/veggies straight from their inventories. I was very disappointed.

I always wondered what happened to food trash on community lots. There aren't any NPC janitors, so the plates and baskets just go poof after a while?

If a taxi travels slower than a bike, the driver must be trying to rack up meter charges 
This makes NO sense if Sims don't pay for cab rides.
I like the idea of Sims biking around town, but why doesn't this build body skill?

What trait(s) does a Sim need in order to harvest trash bins? None of mine have ever been able to do it.
Does the Sim need to be at a neighbor's house?

My roofs have been @Toaded 
I can't see the roofs on houses I'm either playing or building. I can see the NEIGHBORS' roofs, though, both in live mode and build mode. After I play or enter a house to build, the roof "disappears" forever. I took a house from the lot bin and placed it on an empty lot. I never entered the house, but the thumbnail in the lot description is missing a roof    Before I placed the house, it definitely had a roof.
A few people have posted about this on the BBS, but not many.
Has anyone else here seen this?

Click the little flag-like symbol found in "Simology." This will tell you how many hobby enthusiasm points your Sim has in any given area. If you have your Sim work out for a while, it shouldn't take long to gain enough points to be able to to jogging. You'll also want to make sure "nohobbyspam" is in your download folder.

 

I just tried installing Emma's house, which uses M&G. I don't have M&G. I got a message saying something like, "GTFO, luzer, u need stuffpack" (not those words exactly, but the meaning was clear.)

The Holiday Pack adds 3 new NPCs - Santa, Father Time, and Baby New Year.
Santa will arrive if you have a tree and bake holiday cookies. Send everyone to bed early, and keep a toilet free. He likes to pee.
Father Time and Baby New Year will arrive if you throw a Holiday Party.

Which foods are bugged?

Really? I thought satellites only fell on cloud/stargazing sims. How can a sim stare at the sky while frozen?
Pretty cool, though, if it really happened that way.

As for the original question re: non-fattening paste cloned from Chinese food:

I've used this mod, and it works great.

Will a Sim toddler or child eat pet food if hungry enough?
(I confess to eating dog food a few times as a kid, but never paste)

We could all use more RAMs! 
Seriously, though, any object bigger than 1 megabyte better be something truly spectacular.
Has anyone used the produce stand made by Katy at (closed) Sims Mod Board? All due respect to the Fruitbowl, but it would be perfect if it charged more (a LOT more) for the veggies. No cashier or inventory required!

Sure, they work, but the file sizes are HUGE. I'm betting an Awesome version of the fish crates could be a lot smaller.

Hmm. Why isn't it okay for a man to wear a fanny pack? They're very practical, especially for travelling. I'm not male, nor do I own a fanny pack, but I wouldn't scream "DORK!" at a man wearing one. They're not haute couture, but if men aren't allowed to carry a purse, they
have to make do sometimes. 
I wonder what Stacy and Clinton from "What Not To Wear" would have to say about this... 

I've seen this before, and figured one of my default faces was to blame. I never thought to play with the graphics settings. In my game, it doesn't appear on ALL female sims, just 1 or 2 at a time, and very randomly. Very mysterious...

I thought freshness would make the BV food cart meals a better value. They're not very filling.
I understand what you mean about the restaurant meals, though.

Is it possible to make restaurant and BV food cart meals sparkly fresh?

Sims can't blog or browse the web at the Film/Literature secret lot. (Haven't tried this yet at other community lots)
If this is a "feature" it sucks. What other purpose would the computers serve there? It's not a gaming lot 

My Sim maxed the body skill via tai-chi. The memory icon shows a yellow box with a red arrow that looks like Pescado's magic wand.

Is this normal, or bad?

Cats are supposed to be able to sleep in/on the Kitty Condo object that doubles as a scratching post, right?

I've never seen a cat sleep in one of these on its own.  They'll scratch/survey/rest on it all day, but they refuse to sleep.

I don't think it's a placement issue, because when I use the controlpets cheat I can make them sleep in it.  Sometimes they'll climb up to the top to sleep, and sometimes they'll go inside. 

I haven't gotten around to installing the 2nd Pets patch.  The Kitty Condo was never listed as an issue.

The only non-Awesome hacks I have are a sellable juice tray hack from MTS2 and Squinge's communal shower upgrade.

 

I am also wondering why the bowl has menu options to make and serve juice, but all it does it put the produce back into inventory.

If this object is supposed to reduce clicking, why doesn't it actually make the juice?

I get the option to "fix...work state" quite a bit on the Lot Debugger. 

What exactly am I fixing?
