I’m sure storage environment matters though?

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

Maybe the newer kernel? But if you don’t think you need it you’re probably fine tbh

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

Fellow consultant?

Less cringe version:

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.

Cold brew over night, unsweetened

Intermittent fasting. It takes a fair amount of discipline, but if you stick with it past the first week or two it becomes very easy

TBH, from a privacy perspective you’re probably already pretty set – if you wanted to be more cautious you could use disk encryption, ensure that things are a bit locked down (ssh key only auth, firewalls, or find a guide on hardening like this for ex). In terms of your UI, it really depends on what you’re looking for, personally I find GNOME to be the best looking when compared to ease of use but when i made my first switch I started on i3 (but that would be Sway these days for Wayland) and never looked back.

My advice would be to get familiar with Linux as a whole first and then start tweaking things like your UI. It can be overwhelming to get used to the terminal commands (which btw are not necessary but I would heavily recommend as it can make things a LOT easier) and other weird Linux things (software installation, gaming, customization, etc)

I guess im OOTL on this, what’s happened with Kanye now?

Nah he’s remarried to someone named Bianca Censori

Confused as to what the question is, are you looking for an idea as to which ebook platform is the most usable? In my experience (between Calibre & Komga) Calibre is the champion, its not the one people talk about all the time for nothing

Can someone explain all the hate against Beehaw to me? I run a private instance, so I don’t really keep up with Lemmy politics

My first thought as well

Similar boat, private instances ftw
