It's okay not to know. English is spoken in a lot of different places in different ways. I doubt that in your 40 years you've explored this.

Google Trends shows that it's most popular in Malaysia and the Philippines, relative to its use in other countries.

Leave 50g jumbo oats and 100ml soy milk and some cinnamon mixed in a closed container overnight in your fridge. Then in the morning add a splash of additional soy milk, other stuff*, and some honey.

The other stuff I use (all at the same time):

• pear/strawberries (depending on season)
• walnuts
• milled flaxseed
• Brazil nuts
• omega 3 seed mix (cheap and healthy)
• dried cranberry (or raisins)
• macadamia nuts

You can also use a nut mix (without peanuts). I just don't because I don't tolerate hazelnut well.

This breakfast is super useful because it includes so many nuts, which are recommended but quite tricky to include in one's diet. And it adds a ton of fiber and a piece of fruit.

To be fair, extremism flourishes when conditions are bad. Hamas is potentially a product of these conditions, or at least partially. If both peoples would be afforded better conditions, they might seem less incompatible than the two groups seem at the moment.

About time the Palestian issue is put back on the agenda. Strangely enough, Israel is doing everything they can it seems to make that happen.

What do you think raping and massacring people at a music festival is going to do?

Nothing, just cause more suffering. But this isn't a bad guy vs good guy argument. The point that's being made is that extremism tends to be a product of its environment.

Please note that this is not an anti-Israel line of arguing.

Conditions in Gaza are terrible and many people have lost loved ones during their lives there. It creates an environment where extremism can flourish. It's not a certainty, but the probability is just much higher in environments that are severely deprived.

The actions of Hamas are inexcusable, and Israel will surely want to bring them to justice. But after that it's time to acknowledge that if conditions in Gaza are kept as poor as they are, the chances of this type of violence happening again are almost guaranteed. It's also in the interest of Israel to allow and facilitate improved conditions in Gaza.

Such an enlightening argument.

I guess then it was an excellent idea to shoot up a music festival.

I am sorry you lost several loved ones. I can't imagine what that must be like.

Hopefully, while grieving, you won't be stuck in anger for much longer. The people that you have lost wouldn't want children to pay the price for your country's revenge.

Of course you want Hamas to be brought to justice, but there are many people like you and I in Gaza that are just trying to live a life free of violence. Hamas might kill indiscriminately, but they are a terrorist/radical group. A country must not sink to their level, especially a democratic one.

Nothing will make it easier for Hamas to find new recruits than large numbers of people in Gaza who are grieving their lost ones: and so the cycle of violence continues.

Gas isn't safe

Researchers have estimated that around 12-13% of childhood asthma cases in countries like Australia and the United States can be attributed to the use of gas stoves for cooking Source: Nationalasthma.org.au

*Stanford University researchers measured emissions for 53 stoves while on and off. *

[...]

Seventy-six percent of unburned methane leaked out through pipes and fittings when stoves were off.

[...]

A gas stove also pollutes when it is off. A 2022 study found that gas stoves, even when not in use, can leak as much benzene, a carcinogen, as secondhand cigarette smoke. Another study that analyzed natural gas samples found that 95 percent of them contained benzene, for which there is no safe level. That study also found 21 hazardous air pollutants in unburned gas, including hexane and toluene, which can affect the nervous system, liver, and kidneys.

That also doesn't make a lot of sense though, does it. In my language, the day comes first. Also when spoken.

Agreed, equating them is just penalty inflation.

A more productive focus would be:

1. that those who have been shown to accept bribes are actually removed from their position prosecuted successfully.
2. Transparent governance with independent watchdogs so that corruption is harder to hide.

There are 36 pages of translation extensions. The official one works without the cloud, which is pretty unique.

Personally I like the Immersive Translate extension. You can select your preferred translation engine (cloud based, but it supports many) and it shows you both the translated text and original text by alternating the paragraphs.

Next time reddit screws up in a high profile way, and they will screw up, the fediverse will be ready.

And it doesn't seem entirely impossible that our Elon Musk fanboy Steve will screw up again.

I won't be surprised to read in the future:

• Reddit Introduces Its Own Version of X's (Formerly Known as Twitter's) Blue Checkmark
• Backlash After Reddit Strikes Exclusive Deal to Provide Trainingsdata to OpenAI
• Reddit Introduces Paid Membership Options for Communities
• Something Money Grabbing Reddit Related

Yea, screw this kind of stuff.

Most people on here will know vegetarians or in some cases be one. It's a respectable choice that takes a lot of willpower and energy. People who make fun of that aren't my crowd. Mostly because it's a dick thing to do.
