Can you tell me more about doing it sous vide? I have a sous vide stick that I rarely use and would love to have a use for it!

Ocean cleanup is also working on systems to prevent plastic from leaving rivers and flowing into the oceans.

Do you need a French press if you filter the coffee afterwards? I currently do not own one and wasn't planning on getting one. My idea was to just dump the coffee in water, stir, let it brew, then filter.

Also, I assume you use a fairly coarse grind when brewing that long?

Maybe Anne Frank is the vegetarian burger?

Reddit used to have this functionality too (RES would expose it in the UI). Later they removed it and only showed if a comment was controversial. Very refreshing indeed to see the up and down votes again!

You're welcome

It's bought by Avast. I immediately uninstalled it when I learned about the news. No way that they don't want get a return on investment by e.g. selling your data.

Consent-o-matic is better (actually sets the minimum amount of cookies) and is developed by university employees, whom I trust more.

Absolutely true, although imo not necessarily as a conscious choice. It's simply earth's feedback systems. We cram all kinds of animals together and accidentally breed highly contagious viruses, which come back to bite us in the ass. We destroy biodiversity and now people in certain parts of the world have to manually pollinate crops, because the insects all died. Etc.

If all goes well, earth will find a balance again that still favours life (possibly not human life). If not, earth might end up like Venus. Not a big deal for earth, but a bit of shame of all this life we currently see here.

That's very broad. Do you mean by some force outside our universe, or actors inside, possibly on earth?

One you don't wanna join ;) (Google). I'm still on the free tier of what's now Workspace and intent to move, but I'm dreading the work that comes with it.

A year or so ago Google almost killed the free tier (look up gsuite legacy if you want to know more). Back then I prepared to move away and settled on Zoho as my replacement, but in the end Google responded to the community's backlash and kept the free tier free for personal use (although there are some other restrictions put in place, so eventually a move is inevitable). Zoho might also give you the features you want.

I watched a video of a scam baiter recently. The scammer wanted playstation store credits or something. The baiter pretended to be an old lady that didn't understand much. The scammer just had no patience at all. Calling her stupid in her face and all that. Apparently there are really bad scammers.

Did not know about that seeder. Super useful tool! Thanks for sharing.
