many years ago there where bio reactors using algae to trap CO2 and later process those algae into fuel. does anybody know what happened to them?

just off my gut feeling, these should be more efficient. the algae does a big part of the steps basically for free. additionally, a chemical process to transform things sounds less energy costly, than smashing building blocks together yourself…

way to go and alienate allies. you should apply to the orange monkey admin.

stroking a tyrants ego has never really worked in history.

sure canada and mexico should dig trenches and prepare for the worst. but they should also just decouple from usa by making trading, defensive and free travel agreements with other nations (every country should do that)

sadly what happened. all the guns in the world are of no use if you are in his situation.

some of the black panthers got it right: organised, trained and are bringing their legal big guns very openly and in big numbers. pretty sure that acts as a deterrent.

but if you are alone in that poor guys situation, the nazis could beat him to death with sticks… which kind of was a nazi tactic (sturmabteilung was mainly a goon squad)

i mean, the bush family has a lot of money in the weapons industry… but they where actually politicians and have plausible deniability between personal gains and political actions.

what is the reason to put that tool into a browser? if i use the thing on my private computer, it increases complexity compared to a local installation (not an issue for many ppl here, but for my grandma surely). if i use it on a corporate environment, wouldn’t more employees use it if it was the default PDF viewer on their managed device?

what did i miss?

register is way too lenient with those lawmakers. at least link to eff.org, e.g: their resource hub about age verification. there is a whole section about how banning VPNs won’t work and is a stupid idea.

if you run into the same problem again: use a soaking wet cutting board and knife. use the back of the knife to push single spaetzle over the board into hot water. dont forget to re-wet before putting the next load onto the board.

obviously the thing OP suggested is much better. but i am certain you make better progress than with a juicer.

SS Scum? is that, what the username means?

you are mostly right. anti cheat is somewhat more effective with kernel level access. also, it is infinitely more dangerous and creepy to run on your machine.

however, if the devs can get rid of just a couple more cheaters - they will absolutely insist on the more intrusive versions. it is not their machine after all.

i see two variants on how to solve this issue:

• let your wallet speak. this failed long ago IMO
• remind the devs, that a client is never to be trusted. if i had the time, i would probably make a sport out of breaking kernel level anti cheat and distribute it for free 😈

may i interest you in SimAnt?

still bad quality. but compression hasn’t gotten that bad yet…

so yes, holidays. if not specifically unpaid leave, all holidays should be paid. sick is not time off anyway. it is recovering, so company resources are used appropriately: not making others sick and being 100% as soon as possible (instead of a zombie at work).

thanks for the response!

what in the world is PTO? best guess from context is holidays. but why would anyone make it a 3 letter acronym? i am sure any 3 letter acronym has at least 3 different meanings in different contexts…

but if PTO actually is holidays, yes take them. don’t let some third world country grifters, like you find them often in the usa, redefine words and take away basic things - just because they call it slightly different.

again displaying, that DRM only hurts legitimate users. a pirate has never had the problem of backing up, moving or sharing his library…

Also a good option to have these “blocks” synced over multiple accounts. I did not think of uBlock Origin at all. Thanks for the Suggestion!

That would be a great feature. I highly dislike the algorithm YouTube & co serve - as it is designed like a tar pit, just to keep you scrolling.

But a Human curated list is basically like getting recommendations from a colleague.

I like the “All” feed, as it allows some new content. My Subscriptions are somewhat smallish and mostly used for focused reading. I am just used to get rid of a certain topic with maybe up to 3 blocks (I don’t think there are many communities, which distribute over more than that many instances).

You are absolutely right, trying to tell people what to post and consume online is an absolutely absurd idea. the trick is to figure out how to find your couple of topics.

My current way of getting rid of unwanted topics is for sure not ideal. But most of the time it works just fine, when browsing randomly. Maybe i will get bored at some time and actually write a script. Thanks for the hint with https://lemmyverse.net/communities ! Hopefully i will remember to post the script here (if I ever get around to it) so others could profit from it. It seems like there might be a tiny audience for that :-)

tkanks! maybe just more than what i am used to, to get rid of a topic :-)
