Best I can do is a court house wedding followed by a bbq in the park.

Uh welcome I guess? I read this in ordinary sausages voice…

Oh wow, so much more browning surface area! great idea

Sustainable, and regenerative farming for the food supply is a cause I can get behind.

Locally sourced food is good for food independence and famine resistance. I’m on board.

I found this talk on sustainable ruminant agriculture fascinating https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRmwobXCc4c

One of the biggest things we could change, is moving away from grain fed animals. Which frees up the fields making the grain, the fertilizer for the grain… get the animals back to eating pasture/grass. A cow can produce 5kg of milk solids (protein!!!) per day, just eating grass (which no human can eat anyway)… Animals eating their natural diet are much more sustainable for the planet. Not to mention 15% of the earths surface is range land, not suitable for crops, but suitable for ruminants. Cultivated land is only 4% of earths surface, from that 4% we have to get all of our plant based foods. 15% > 4% so animal food has a place in a sustainable food supply

Then there is the discussion of how effective different foods are, if you need to eat 3kg of plant based food to hit the minimum RDA vs 300g of animal based foods, even if the animal food has a higher footprint it has to be measured in the context of human impact. https://hackertalks.com/post/5606539

Most people are already eating a massively plant based diet, something like 80% of people’s diets in the world comes from plants, and people, especially women, are woefully under eating their protein requirements!

Ahh Jagged circle down voted this, so I suspect they don’t actually care about sustainability, and their objection is something else. Pity, we could have had a productive discussion.

Plants are alive. Why are animals special?

tea, eggs, liver, and the least expensive meat the butcher is selling this week (almost always a mince)

I’m afraid that is the human position in the circle of life.

It would be nice if humans could just absorb nutrition directly from sunlight and the soil.

As humans exist today, they need to consume energy and resources prepared by other life forms, be it fungi, bacteria, plants, or animals.

100% Glad you enjoyed the paper! it’s great motivation to keep exercising throughout life!

It better do well!!! I can see 3 squidgame billboards from my window right now!!!

I bet it was the Popeyes staff… see the same people all day… Lol… You have to tip out the back of the house or they are going to rat you out!!!

99% of restaurants are just reselling Sysco food anyway

BLOOD is my personal secret!

My current favorite ground beef meal prep:

• 70/30 ground beef (if its more lean, I render down some fat/lard first then add the meat to get the ratio up)
• Salt
• Jalapeno (sliced, with seeds)
• Blood (pig / cow)
• Eggs
• Liver (diced)

Using a medium/large sized pan. If I have salt crystals, add them when warming up the pan so they can dissolved (i’m lazy to grind). Brown ground beef on high heat, then reduce to medium. Add diced liver, jalapenos, (salt), and blood. Once liver has taken some color, mix, make a hole in the center with everything piled up on the sides of the pan. Add eggs to center. Once the eggs have started to cook, mix everything. Once eggs are almost done, remove from heat! Eat from the pan for easy cleanup!

I’ve experimented with different spices (paprika/rosemary is really good), but I find using real fat, and blood adds a real depth to the taste and it doesn’t really need spices except for variety. On occasion I’ll add diced crispy bacon at the end, its great!

Most butchers will have fat (usually free), and blood - but if not available you can often find blood in the asian market.

Dropout.tv ? It’s not really a large streaming service, its a niche comedy groups ongoing shows - more like pateron exclusive content vs netflix

I like dropout, and the crew, but if you switched to dropout as your only media source, you would burn through everything in a month or two

2.5 years, so far so good

Unless they are banned from the community or instance.

First - It might help if you don’t call people assholes.

Run your own instance, see who is down voting them, then ban them from the community you moderate.

Alternatively turn off downvotes in your Lemmy client

Wrt downvoters, it’s not just misswipes, there are a handful of voters who downvote many things, some of them just don’t like me as a person, or don’t like ideas I talk about and now don’t like me as a person, I suspect a fair few I miscommunicated with and they think I’m a terrible person and now they down vote everything I post. Shrug. It’s social media.

It seems like most people downvote as a sign of disagreement, or disliking… so when I posted a review of a paper looking at vegan approaches to treating insulin resistance… The carnivores downvoted me because I mentioned vegans, and the vegans downvotes me because the paper was not promoting veganism but working around it’s limitations… Massive downvotes on a scientific paper. Direct democracy of ideas does not lead to civil discourse. example

As a individual I don’t care about down votes. As a moderator, trying to grow a community, I see downvotes as negative growth, a chilling effect, discouraging others from posting or participating in the community. A community first needs to be a safe space for a topic, have engagement, and allow for constructive dialog - if it devolves into downvoting fights and name calling, its not a nice place to be.

Some do, but it’s app calls now, so just more internet traffic.

WWE is just opera in a new skin. She is still a dancer, just the song has changed.

Or less fatigue, but when companies raise prices people reevaluate if they will keep the service…

I.e. geowizard went from $2 a month for premium to $10… What I was happy leaving on in the background to support a small developer became a easy and emphatic no.

The paper says cable satellite spending grew last year by 11%… That’s not new customer growth, that’s squeezing existing customers. Maybe this difference is a generational difference, boomers just eat the price increase and take it, younger people turn off the service and reject it.

Tldr: lots of couples use divorce court to continue fighting instead of moving on.

Super independently rich couples can afford to do it for years… 8 years in this case
