Everyone knows the appropriate solution is drying the device in your microwave.

Didn’t have kids. Volunteer at local parks working on specialist plants. Look forward to not waking up one day.

Pretty sure the first minds to be controlled by generative AI work on the floor at the stock exchange.

Capitalism must feed. And, if we don’t give them huge electronics landfills to search for scrap, what are our children and grandchildren going to do for work?

My kids won’t have this problem. Given the circumstances that have been obvious for 40-50 years I made the best and most responsible parenting decision possible. I didn’t have any.

One of these 2:

• some leftover rice, reheated.
  or
• a couple small potatoes, microwaved and then cut into cubes.

Mixed with one of these 3:

• 1-2 packets cooked maggi masala ramen.
  or
• a can of chili and microwave for another couple minutes.
  or
• bagged madras lentils, similar to above.

Wasn’t referring to what Meta could do or even necessarily that there’s an issue with Lemmy’s software. More that there’s a bunch of servers with various configurations without resources dedicated to intrusion detection, mitigation or reporting. If something did happen at a server level to a hobbyist instance there’s no reason to believe users or maybe even the persons running the instance would know about it.

Probably. Not sure if this will do it. But there’s inherent privacy concerns in having a bunch of relatively insecure silos interoperating as a semi-social network even if most of us do so with varying degrees of anonymity. For the moment, most of us are here to avoid corporate overreach so motivations are in a certain degree of alignment. But it’s just a matter of time before something goes wrong or the winds change in an unforeseen way.

Is there anyway to implement (without spinning up your own private instance) the ability for individual users to opt out of federation of their content to certain instances, or would that introduce too much overhead and complication?

How’d you get in my house?
Would you please leave?
Who the fuck was that?

Have been too depressed for too many decades. Lost the ability to enjoy music. Miss it, but anytime I try it feels contrived and I hear people from my past deriding my selections for various reasons.

Stop letting him. You don’t owe him even an explanation. The nicest thing you could do for him would be to let him figure it out with as much time as he needs to do so. He hasn’t listened thus far or had any appreciable or effective consequences that gave pause to or caused change in his behaviors. I think you probably know this and are just looking for confirmation.

Take yourself and your family back. Why let someone like that be a further influence?

Little bit of both. I use whole herbs and loose tea. Half a cinnamon stick boiled well, first in the pot with pepper, makes about a pot the size that I use. Probably about a pint and a half, maybe two, with a strainer lid. Pour spout on the side. Fairly standard cooking pot.

Then, it’s there when I want it.

I make a concentrated pot of assam black tea, chamomile, cinnamon, black pepper and cardamom tea on the stove every couple days. keep it refrigerated, dilute it as needed and drink it from about 7am-2pm. The mix keeps me awake enough, but the chamomile takes the edge off and keeps me from getting anxious. The cinnamon, black pepper and cardamom help my stomach pretty getting mad about everything I eat and tastes good. Assam black tea has a maltier flavor I really like, much less tannic.

Used to drink coffee, but it’s just too harsh for me anymore.

Humans are the only species that would ask a question like this with ecologically damning effects. So, yeah.

Even table games before that served much the same purpose, similar with sports and some hobbies. It’s much easier to talk about something or over something while engaging in an activity. They provide a default topic, a medium, a space and a diversion from unwelcome topics when needed; an agreed upon means of social interaction.

Blend some (1/4 cup or so) oatmeal into a powder. Put in 1-2 TBS peanut butter. Then add milk/yogurt/fruit/a little vanilla/some honey whatever you want. You can make your own liquid meal replacement without all the processing in commercial options, for less money and it’ll be fresh.

If you want something fast but it doesn’t have to be drinkable, mix 2-4 TBS peanut butter and 1/2 cup or so of oatmeal in a little bowl. Microwave for like 30 seconds to a minute or so. Add a couple TBS of juice or a small handful of chocolate chips. You’ve now got a basic “energy bar” that can be eaten with a spoon. Can also function as a light desert or sweet, healthy snack.

I think stuff that’s churned out in huge quantities, packaged in plastic, shipped around and designed to be shelf stable is questionable at best. If microbes won’t even digest it (which would make it go bad) how digestible is it for people?

Oatmeal and peanut (or other nut) butter is real food and it only takes a minute or two to mix up something basically the same as one of those replacement options, but made fresh. For my basic vitamins daily, I’ll have a bowl of plain cheerios (somewhat processed but better than a pressed vitamin) and some fruit. Maybe some greens here and there. (I’ll also try to hide some marmite in something, to up my B12 as I eat very little meat or dairy.)

All of these options are super cheap.
