No. The cognac region makes wine and certainly a handful are sparkling. But if we’re talking about cognac, the formal name for French brandy, no. That would violate laws protecting the name “cognac”. There are very specific restrictions on most of these big international names and you have to follow very specific manufacturing practices.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca•What can and cant be done about tinnitus?
81·2 months agoNothing, historically. There are newer trials going on and at least one FDA-approved device in the USA that involves putting some object in your mouth for like 30 minutes a day.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you feel sad about the fact that you'll probably die within 100 years (or less) and you (well... that's most of us tbh) can't do much to leave a significant positive legacy?
4·3 months agoI feel sad that I can’t see what my impact will lead to (however small).
I also feel sad that i can’t see how certain new technologies will mature.
You say something is irrational but you don’t really explain it.

810·3 months agoEhhhh it depends. If the strain is really far off from what’s in that year’s vaccine, not really. The closer the relationship, the better the protection. Obviously I’m not saying anybody should skip vaccination but it isn’t that simple

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some happy moments of your childhood? Have you ever felt that happy again in adulthood? Ever tried "re-living" that moment later?
1·3 months agoAh yes, must’ve been those hard right religious values my family instilled in me that let me use drugs.
And to be clear, you asked about adulthood happiness too. I wasn’t doing that as a kid

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people?

7·4 months agoMy dude, we’ve butted heads multiple times. Thatsbnote even really relevant to your fundamental misconception of what work should looks like.
Your post history is full of blaming others.
If everyone else is always the problem, sometimes you need to look at the common denominator




















What did they do, give millions in their welfare funds to a rich retired NFL star?
Oh wait, that wasn’t a blue state
