Most people are inclined to shoo flies away from food, and the thought of maggots in your bins is enough to make anyone's stomach turn.
But a handful of city councils have embraced maggots - more formally known as fly larvae - and their taste for rotting food.
In Vilnius, capital of the Baltic state of Lithuania, fly larvae have officially been given the job of processing the 2,700 tonnes of food waste the city's 607,000 residents put out for collection each year, alongside that of the six neighbouring councils.

The current alternative for sending food waste to landfill is anaerobic digestion (AD), a breakdown process which creates biogas.
However, Mr Kotch says current AD plants aren't enough to cope with the anticipated influx of household food waste.
"Globally, over 1.3 billion tonnes of food is wasted every year. We believe up to 40% of that could be upcycled using insect waste management. And not only does it avoid disposal costs and methane emissions, but it also produces valuable protein and organic fertiliser," says Mr Kotch.

Inheritance tax decreases the power of families and increases of individuals, which results in a more equal society.
And while were working to remain outside Russia, train some cyberwarfare experts, launch a bunch of IT programs at universities, set-up funding for innovate tech start-ups. EU can do this. Fuck putin. Russian people need to be liberated beyond occupied Ukraine (ok, maybe that is a more longterm thing but), let's gooo.
But it also does need to be pointed out that building up the logistical pipelines that can create and sustain a truly viable and credible defense posture independent of the US is not going to be a cheap or fast process.
Unfortunately not, which is exactly why we shouldn't take the easy road and order ourselves some American weaponry. Definitely no new joint strike fighter for example.
I’m just shocked more European countries didn’t take it more seriously the first time he got elected.
But not as shocking as him becoming president again. Holy shit.

BRUSSELS — A potentially imminent vote of no confidence in European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is almost certain to fail, but would at the same time compound her embarrassment over the Pfizergate scandal.
Romanian right-wing lawmaker Gheorghe Piperea has filed a motion of censure against von der Leyen over her secret texts from 2021 with Albert Bourla, the chief executive of pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, during discussions on getting vaccines to Europe at the height of the coronavirus pandemic.
FRANKFURT, June 27 (Reuters) - The ECB should abandon targeting headline inflation and focus instead on price growth in discretionary spending to protect the bloc's poorest, a paper to be presented to policymakers at the bank's preeminent research conference argued on Friday.
The ECB targets inflation at 2% and a soon-to-be-concluded review will not even discuss the definition of the target as policymakers have long argued that using a different measures, like underlying inflation, or figures incorporating housings costs, could sow confusion.
But the paper written for the ECB Forum on Central Banking in Sintra, Portugal next week argues that the current framework disproportionately hurts low income workers and leads to an inferior outcome for society.

If you'd replied to my comment instead of the thread i'd gotten a notification, this might be why no one else responded to you. But yes I still use spark. My main email is proton and I use their own app, but I use spark on my android to access my icloud email.

Literally the first line of my comment is "it doesn't say anything on how much more than $1,000 is spent".
Getting mad that
Not sure where you got the impression i'm mad about anything but ok.
