You don’t need a PDF editor to create PDF’s, you can print to PDF in any program that can print, including LibreOffice Writer.

The problem with meat is not that we eat it, but that we eat too much of it. Most people eat a week’s worth of meat in a single day, and that results in the over production of meat, which is helping to destroy the environment.

You can’t simply go with the manufacturing emissions, you have to look at the entire life cycle of the vehicles in question.

I’m marinating a salmon steak in an Asian sauce mixture, and roasting that. I’ll make some fried rice and steam some broccoli, and pour the remaining sauce from the salmon over the broccoli. This is something I meant to do last night but didn’t get around to it, so it’s my christmas eave dinner tonight.

I thought pandas only ate a certain type of bamboo leaves.

Maybe take it up with his boss? I really can’t see the restaurant caring one way or another, as long as the shift is covered by someone qualified to do the job.

BBSes were pre-public internet, not part of the internet. The connected ones were a separate network in and of themselves. I ran a WWIV BBS in the late 80s to early 90s that had its own networking system allowing communication, and even file sharing between instances. It was pretty sophisticated for the time, but hella slow over my 14.4k modem.

WWIV did migrate to using the internet for connection, and maybe others did as well. Perhaps that’s what you were considering with this comment?

My Samsung S22 did, but the Pixel I traded it in for does not.

I use a chargie. It’s a physical Bluetooth connected device that connects between the phone and charger and lets you set your own charge limit. Works great with my wireless charger at night. I also have one for my tablet.

As a democratic country, we should be on the side of the 94% of the population that doesn’t support the current government. Of course, that’s probably not in the interest of our corporate overlords, who are robbing Peru’s natural resources for profit.

Just searched for the original, and it no longer comes with a funnel or filter holder, and the number of filters seems to have been dropped to 100 as well. It seems to be a darker version of the clear now, but less than $40.

Greed ruins everything.

I think an even more accurate analogy, but one that very few people these days will understand, is that Lemmy is like the connected BBS’s of the late 80s and early 90s where each BBS had message boards, and users could communicate between each other. It was quite slow, being modem based, and usually only a nightly schedule for connecting, but it did work quite well.

Very little moderation and yet people behaved themselves, though of course the number of non-tech people on the net were far lesser as well so that certainly had something to do with it.

I remember the pre-AOL Internet, and what happened when AOL opened the gates to the masses. That was the day the civil internet died, and soon after the commercial internet devoured it, forever changing the way people can scam, deceive and show hate towards each other.

If some company or the government wants to charge me 3% to 10% or more to electronically pay, I’m writing them a check.

I moved to Reddit when Digg destroyed itself. It wasn’t too hard to make the switch, although it did take a bit of getting used to. I imagine it’ll be the same this time, or maybe a bit easier, as the format of lemmy.ml is not too different in appearance from Reddit.
