  • I miss glass bottles of coke.

    They're still available, but mainstream supermarkets don't tend to carry them as much.

    • Nordics and Estonia rolling out offline card payment back-up in case internet cut

  • I wonder if this is related to GNU Taler?

  • My brain sees theme and wallpaper interchangeably. Sorry, fixed it.

  • I have tried KDE several times, and can't bring myself to like it.

    To each their own.

    • Breakthrough in search for HIV cure leaves researchers ‘overwhelmed’

  • Or Epstein -Barr. Or Varicella.

    Eliminating all of those would be great.

    • Sellafield scandal shows nuclear is not safe or green

    Jump

  • It leaches enough radioactive water into the ground to fill an Olympic sized swimming pool every three years

    That's actually not bad. That's a slow leak that has plenty of time to dilute with the ground water.

    Dilution is the solution to pollution.

    This is a fearmongering, sensationalist, click baity style article.

  • That was a Neo style dodge like in the Matrix.

    Nuclear is cleaner and safer than coal.

    In fact, a fly ash pond is both radioactive and full of carcinogenic substances.

    • How the use of a word in the Guardian has gotten some readers upset

    Jump

  • It's just a weird thing I have now that I'm a chemistry major. 🤣

    I love my friends and family across the pond.

    I often pull out that linguistically, my Appalachian dialect of English is closer to Elizabethan English than anything else spoken today. 🙂

    In the end, it doesn't really matter to anyone except pedants.

  • I won't concede any part of American English until they start pronouncing "aluminum" instead of "aluminium".

    We found the element, so we got to name it, and it doesn't matter if it breaks with the naming convention that was already established.

    • how's your week going, Beehaw

    Jump

  • Yeah, I had only joined Lemmy about a month prior, and that was the one suggested by Voyager.

    • Meet Petey! He's a Schnoodle we rescued last year.

  • It had garlic in it, but I gave him some cheese.

  • I had food in my lap. It was a very serious face.

    • Meet Perseus, the Black Velvet chinchilla.

    Jump

  • He's very soft. If you start scritching just below his ear, he'll turn his head sideways so you can get a better angle. 🥰

    Completely rotten.

    Jump

  • They announced that my Lemmy instance was shutting down, so I had to migrate.

    Nice to be(e) here.

  • That's me too. 🫠

    • Inventing Japanese Braille: Wei Yu Wayne Tan explores the significance of inventing Japanese Braille

    Jump

  • This is only vaguely related, but I took 2 semesters of Japanese back when I was working on my geology degree. My professor was able to bring a koto player to the university, and explained that the profession was reserved for the blind in Japan - to ensure that there were some jobs available for them.
