  • Surprised to see Nigeria on that list. Are they going to produce it, but not consume it?

  • Lazy request warrants a lazy response. LMAITFY:

    About 1.2 to 1.4M active users across the fediverse, with Mastodon making up the bulk at around 990k MAU on its own. Other platforms are much smaller: Pixelfed ~110k, Lemmy ~48k, PeerTube ~40k, Misskey ~21k.

    Since these instances are defederated, it’s an approximation.

  • Some of the best chess players are also in jail.

  • Sorry to say, but we’ve moved onto virtual goods to satisfy our crazes nowadays. Try planting those tulips in your homebrew farmcraft simulator clone and watch those profits roll in.

  • I got to the point where slate cuts it off to subscribe.

    The gist:

    • oranges originally came from China via the conquistadors.
    • there’s a greening bacteria that probably came from a tiny bug which also originates from China. - the bug was transported throughout the state by hurricanes
    • The bacteria takes years for it present itself within the tree. By the time you notice, the tree is already in its death throes.
    • there is no current cure, thought they’re working on it. Will likely be many years before the can confirm a real fix
    • most orange juice no longer comes from Florida, the US is a major consumer of the stuff, kind of a novelty elsewhere. We started drinking it because of its vitamin c richness as distributed in rations during ww2.
    • more resistant hybrids are a solution, but author says hybrid juice tastes terrible.
    • Growers may be moving to other crops in the interim.
  • I’m looking forward to the day that the true holodeck is invented so that these dweebs can live in their narcissistic libertarian fantasy worlds. Maybe then the rest of us can then live our lives cohesively and take care of this planet like we should have been doing all along.

  • Death panels by any other name wouldn’t be so bleak.

  • You know when you take that first spoonful of New England clam chowder and it’s like the universe whispers, “Slow down, buddy, you’re home now”? My family treated chowder like a sacred ritual…snowstorm outside, pot simmering inside, everyone pretending not to notice that my cousin Jimmy always stole the oyster crackers just to crush them up into fine cracker dust. And then use those as his own personal hacky sacks until the bags exploded.

    You know when the steam fogs your glasses and suddenly you’re back in your grandparents’ kitchen, watching mammy stir the pot with the same wooden spoon that’s she’d had since before you were born? That spoon could have otherwise been a magic wand with the wonders she could prepare in that kitchen.

    Sadly, mammy passed a few years back. Jimmy died a couple of days ago. OD’d on fentanyl; aspirated on a piece of potato from the chowder we had prepared together for lunch that day. He was looking pretty gaunt by then, and I thought cooking a big pot would bring back a little of the magic, like old times again.

    Anyway, the rest of this gallon here still sits in my fridge. Aging day by day, slowly headed towards its expire date. Much like the rest of us. But maybe this review will be retained for some time long after. 5/5 - Rest well Jimmy, you’re home now. I miss you.

  • Saw my first “I did that” stickers at the pump in SC the other day. Bless their hearts, they’re learning.

  • You talking about Harry Buns?

  • Wardash?

  • I don’t get it. 100 years ago was after the collapse of the Austrian-Hungarian empire. Why would they want to go back there?

  • But QI, that’s the good stuff. I’d walk over mountains and rivers for more QI.

  • That’s metal.

  • I use a chromecast and, good golly, the number of times I get 90+ second ads is insane. I downloaded nebula the other day and, once I finally get my fill of avgn in the next week or so, I’m leaving and never looking back.

  • These are the kind of profound dating messages that have such great thought and creativity to them.

    And the response, if you do get a response, is probably gonna be “🤣😂🤣 hi”.

    And 99.9% of the time I would be so pissed by that. But in this case, it totally works.

    Stay gold, onion boy.
