Another plus in favor of posteo is they will never delete or block access to your account even if you stop paying (you just won't be able yo send emails).

That's a very unique trait amongst the privacy focused providers. In comparison, mailbox.org will recycle email addresses after a certain amount of time of not paying, potentially allowing someone to impersonate you by claiming your old address.

Looking at the ingredients list for the burger and chicken nuggets, there's nothing jumping out at me as particularly unhealthy. Perhaps the sunflower oil isn't ideal for pan frying, as it's not a particularly stable oil at high temps unless it's the high-oleic varity, but the coconut oil will hold up fine. Considering red meat has some fairly solid evidence now of increasing cancer risk, I suspect an impossible burger is potentially healthier than a real one.

Beyond meat (the competitor to impossible) used to use some nasty oils that would oxidize during cooking and become quite unhealthy, but they recently reformulated using avacado oil, so they're pretty solid now too, health wise. I think they have a slightly off flavor compared to impossible though.

D'oh! Thanks for pointing that out 😅

If you haven't tried any yet, meat alternatives are really, really good now. Impossible meat, Quorn, and Seitan are all excellent alternatives, Quorn and Impossible in particular are, to me, indistinguishable from the real thing.

The book "Dawn of Everything" by David Graeber and David Wengrow makes a strong case that our current way of structuring society and exploiting eachother is actually an aberration from the norm based on archeological evidence, where it appears we were far more egalitarian and collective.

Here's a summary from Wengrow himself in video form: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8SJi0sHrEI4

So the Star Trek future may in fact be a return to our previous state.

Some additional resources:

  1. Here's a great guide on how to find local communities to join
  2. Consider joining the IWW and attempt to unionize your workplace, so that the general strike is even more effective.

If I also often link this segment from Manufacturing consent, since it illustrates very effectively how these actions have had massive impacts in the past.

Hell yes! game slapped at the time, probably still does. I never played the crash bandicoot racers, but I did play Mario kart growing up, and this was a really solid competitor, better than it had any right to be.

That's already hours in, and it was only getting more ridiculous. I had a looksee at Yatzhee's old review of it, and he confirmed my feelings on it, and said it got even worse later. I may watch a let's play of it at some point, but I just wasn't having fun, so I'm unlikely to pick it up again, personally. Just doesn't have the magic...

I just tried new colossus yesterday, actually, and I was surprised how big of a dive the writing took compared to the first game, I had to stop when the resistance guy bursts out of bathroom during that really forced emotional scene in the sub.

I loved the first game and the old blood dlc, so was a bit of a bummer :(

Bananas Screen Sharing may one day be able to replicate that functionality, though at the moment it does not pass-through application audio (The dev mentioned they hadn't implementet that because it's difficult to do on Mac OS, but seems to be viable for Windows/Linux), but it does pass through the microphone.

Thanks for catching that! I changed the title to the correct name.

Hi everyone! I recently migrated the Documentaries community from Lemmy.world to our new home at Lemmy.cafe. There's a longer post as to why here for another community I brought over, but one of the big benefits was the ability for the Beehaw community to join in and participate, as they are defederated from lemmy.world.

The Documentaries community is... Nah yeah it's just documentaries, innit mate? But it's good ones! So if you like a good little doc here and there, in between yer netflix and yer podcasts, well by gosh this might be the community for you!

We've got all kinds; war docs, environmental docs, history docs, science docs, even got some weirder docs that'll make ya scratch your head as your mind absorbs what ya just took in, like a drug, but informational.

If that sounds like something that'd interest you, then be sure to check it out and maybe even subscribe over at:

!Documentaries@lemmy.cafe

 

Hi everyone! I recently migrated the MealtimeVideos community from Lemmy.world to our new home at Lemmy.cafe. There's a longer post as to why here, but one of the big benefits was the ability for the Beehaw community to join in and participate, as they are defederated from lemmy.world.

If you're familiar with the old MealtimeVideos from reddit, it's quite similar to that. But for those unfamiliar, the main draw of the community is that it collects high-quality vidoes, oftentimes edutainment, and provides the duration of the video in the title, so you can select one that will slot in with your breakfast, lunch, or any other meal!

Of course, you don't have to be eating to enjoy the videos, but meal watchers are the main demographic, I suspect.

Hey all! Just wanted to let you all know we'll be moving the Documentaries community over to Lemmy.Cafe. If you'd like to continue seeing cool new docs in your home tab, be sure to subscribe to our new community at:

For more details on why we're doing this move, there's a more detailed post on another community we're transferring, MealtimeVideos.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this community and subscribed, and I hope to see you all over at the Cafe :)
