This is the most insane movie 💀

EDIT: dude was talking about plastic recycling, i misunderstood the context

Original comment:

🧢

50% of beer and soda cans are recycled

And,

"Aluminium is an infinitely recyclable material, and it takes up to 95 percent less energy to recycle it than to produce primary aluminium, which also limits emissions, including greenhouse gases. Today, about 75 percent of all aluminium produced in history, nearly a billion tons, is still in use."

Why post blatantly false, easily invalidated information?

The two that stick out to me are:

• Gran Turismo
• Elvis

Exactly the same reason i used it, prior to moving to sway with the switch to Wayland

I'll never understand why Square Enix gave Deck Nine LIS in the first place. Dontnod = GOAT

Caught the Upstate NY-er

I'd say the requirements are accurate, it needs cpu to do the simulation stuff but I'm still a noob.

Regardless, i think i could go 12hrs before crossing that threshold (if it does exist)

This is terrible advice, especially for someone moving from an rpi bruh

In what fucking world are you living

FM/AM, TV, etc have all been around for LONG before the 2020s

Fellow consultant?

Yeah good catch LMAO

Perhaps, but on the other side of that coin: Because valve doesn't have legal obligations to make money snd increase shareholder value, they put a lot of money elsewhere. The products they create are awesome (literally the best launcher on PC, Tim Sweeney is probably upset because his is ass) and invest heavily in things better for gamers:

• digital returns were huge when they first rolled out
• (IMO) spearheading game streaming with steam in home streaming & the steam link
• creating awesome games and not milking them for perpetual profit (other than maybe in game items but i don't want to have this discussion)
• investing heavily in alternative ways to play (steam machines, aforementioned steam link, VR/index, steam controller, steam deck)
• legitimately spending money to make it possible to game on Linux, reducing gamers reliance on Microsoft/Windows

Less cringe version:

I honestly find it impressive how quickly the word "enshittification" is brought up in Lemmy comments

(/s, but we do talk about it a lot here)

So i don't know what kit you have or what it came with but here's everything I would use:

Equipment:

• Star San (make sure everything is sanitized, also don't rinse this stuff out -- "don't fear the foam")
• Airlock (and bung)
• Fermenter (I like big mouth bubblers, but your kit should have come with something)
• A spoon

Ingredients:

• Honey (I do 3lbs per gal)
• Water (I use store bought water, because I'm paranoid lol)
• If you're using fresh fruit, pectic enzyme (this helps break down haze in the mead from the fruit)
• Fermaid-O (this is the nutrients)
• Wine Tanin (optional, for aging)
• Yeast (you can get some cheap yeast on Amazon -- I used Red Star "Cote Des Blancs" for my strawberry mead, but your kit probably came with this)

Watch some YouTube videos to get a feel for the process. I enjoy City Stead Brewing, they have tons of recipes and helpful tips. Also, if you're gonna bottle and stuff you'll need wine bottles, a siphon and bottling wand, corks, and a corker. You can bottle in swing-top bottles, but I haven't had good luck with those (apparently they're not great for long term storage >.>)

Like i said though, for your first mead it's probably best to KISS. I appreciate being able to get a feel for the process and then experimenting later on. I've only made two meads, but have made wine and a LOT of beer in the past -- so if you have more questions just lmk!

My advice: your first mead is probably gonna be more of a learning experience. Go to costco and buy a big bottle of honey (3lbs), mix it with a gallon of water, and some nutrients.

Most cost effective way to try it out without blowing a ton of money. My first mead was terrible, and i spent a ton of money on good local honey.

My second mead i spent even more on better honey and strawberries, to apply everything i learned. Came out amazing

one specific community, primarily one one instance. The concept of "rule" originates on r/196, where the only rule is that you have to post when you visit.

Therefore, its easiest to write "posting because rule" in the title rather than something creative. AFAIK this eventually devolved into just saying "Rule" or some sort of play on it.

The best pro-tip i have from my college days, is to always check wikipedia :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sci-Hub

My point exactly, the flavors are not the problem. A lot of states have banned them yet the problem persists, because it was never about the flavors. It's 100% a social thing IMO, online glorification and peer pressure.

Not peer pressure like how its depicted in the media, but real peer pressure. Your friends vape, and they're always vaping around you -- then one day you get a little curious about it and it snowballs from there.
