Pineapple contains an enzyme called Bromelaine.It has proteolytic properties, means it has the ability to dissolve certain amino acid bonds, as in proteins. This is relevant If you want to mix (fresh!) pineapple with diary products, gelatine or meat. Diary will turn bitter, gelatine wont form a gel, and meat will first tenderize and eventually dissolve. Another use-case is cat food. In there, Bromelaine can help the cat dissolve hair balls in it’s stomach. Papaya also has a similar enzyme called Papaine, and Kiwi contains the so called Actinidine with similar properties.

FUN FACT: The peel of the pineapple contains more or less the same amount of enzyme, so you can use that too If you want to dissolve your neighbors cat.

Have fun!

Mhm, I think this is more complicated than it looks. The LF today isn’t a direct Linux kernel funding body and more an umbrella for open-source governance (infrastructure, events, certification, security work, to name a few). So the other 97% are not necessarily wasted. Also, many kernel developers are paid outside of the LF by companies like Red Hat, Google, AMD, SUSE, Microsoft. So in reality there is alot more cash flowing towards Linux kernel development. A better/sharper criticism would be that the LF has become an industry consortium for “enterprise open source” or so, rather than a Linux-centered foundation. The counterpoint on the other Hand is that this founded infrastructure is exactly what allows large-scale open-source projects to function in the first place.

Nucular. It’s spelled nucular 🤌

Look, people are saying it. Smart people. The best people. They come up to me, tears in their eyes, and they say: “Sir… sir… have you seen what’s happening to vowels?”

And I say: “I have. I’ve seen it. Very sad.”

Nobody’s talking about it. Nobody. The price of vowels went THROUGH THE ROOF. Tremendous inflation in the vowel market. The BIDEN ADMIN did this!

A? Expensive. E? Total disaster. And don’t even get me started on O. Very overrated vowel, by the way. I don’t like it.

Frankly, we HAD the best vowels. Under me, consonants respected the vowels. Now THERE IS CHAOS.

I think there are many right answers, and in the end it’s dependent on your personal likings. I am self-hosting using Fedora, and I couldn’t be happier.

The other side of the door

Can’t say anything about the browser, but honestly that name is ridiculous. You literally just need to drop a letter and you are left with Spermium.

At least these kids are safe now and noone will experience any trade off from this policy /s

I am new to the topic, so I can’t really contribute. But I love to see other people help the boycott.

• Switched to Vivaldi. Awesome browser on all plattforms IMO.

• Switched to Proton Mail, and feel good about it. Why is Proton bad?

• And Big Win: I now host my own Nextcloud, Kalender and paperless-ngx. Highly recommend these, from a usability point of view. Can’t say much about the technical or security perspective.

Obviously nuclear. The destruction is very important to me.

As someone who is not at all into programming, this title made me genuinely think I had a stroke.

First of all, I’d say we’re on the same side. Israel is acting like a disgusting piece of shit. Also, many Israelis are abusing the term “antisemitic” to discredit people that they dont like. But I think we still need to differentiate. Therefore let me answer your question:

If the vanalism is against Israeli officials/buildings/state institutions, thats fine! Like ambassies, consulates, (international) representatives, politicians, economic figures, IDF members, etc… They are waging war and genocide, they deserve our anger + protest.

But If it hits religious institutions, private folks, jewish communities, holocaust memorials, etc. with no Israeli state background or links to the IDF, then maybe dont attack them, because otherwise it really is nothing but antisemitism. And that’s the point. If it was really only about the state of Israel, then why do so many “protests” explicitly target Jewish religious institutions (like synagogues, cemeteries, schools) rather than Israeli ones? It is not even rare thing to happen, thats why I wonder why you are asking. Examples:

Moldova, Kasauti. A Holocaust memorial was vandalized with ‘free Palestine’ graffiti.

Ukraine, Uman. A swastika was painted on a Jewish café.

UK, Glasgow. “Free Palestine” and “Fuck the no really Jews” were painted on a wall.

Italy, Milan. A man shouted “murderers” in front of a Jewish nursing home.

Italy, Milan. An elderly Jewish man, wearing a hat with a Star of David, was walking his dog, when a man tore off his hat, trampled it, and called the elderly man “dirty Jew.”

Italy, Milan. An Orthodox Jewish man was insulted on his way to a synagogue by an Italian couple who said to him, “F—king Zionist! You kill children!” On his way home he was shoved by a young man who shouted antisemitic epithets at him.

Germany, Oldenburg. An incendiary device was thrown at the door of the Oldenburg synagogue.

Belgium, Fleron. The home of Belgian Holocaust survivors was vandalized with “Gaza Free” and a swastika.

Munich, Germany. A man stood in front of the main synagogue, shouted antisemitic insults and give Hitler salutes.

Montevideo, Uruguay. A doll depicting a Jewish women with a Star of David and a spear piercing her forehead was displayed during a march for International Women’s Day.

Paris, France. A man wearing a kippah was attacked as he left a synagogue.

Babenhausen, Germany. A Jewish memorial column was smeared with paint.

Geneva, Switzerland. “Exterminate the Jews” and “Death to Zionists” graffiti were found in Geneva after a pro-Palestinian rally.

Countdown-Timer on e.g. Amazon that try to FOMO-pressure me into buying the item. Edit: typo

Additional note: Your framing is somewhat binary, relying on a “if you’re not with me, you’re against me” logic. I understand the emotions that come with this topic, but your logic reduces complex positions to two options despite the existence of intermediate views. Nuanced actors might then be pushed into opposing camps, therefore intensifying conflict.

Edit, for context: Damned be Israel for everything they are doing right now. I am just trying to maintain some discourse quality.

Restricting certain forms of speech can be interpreted in two ways: As suppression of legitimate political critique. Or as boundary-setting to prevent generalizations or escalation.

Whether specific political positions are restricted depends not on how you see them, but on how moderators classify them. “Anti-Zionism” is not a single, defined category. It ranges from policy criticism against Israel, to positions that some moderators may interpret as targeting jews.

Your ID identifies you as Australian, mate. Afaik public hospitals are free / publicly funded in Australia, just as it should be. But that’s unfortunately not true for everyone.

Few people do know that student loans are based on mechanisms similar to that of the karma system. High debt at death = rebirth as a lower life form. In truth, that is also the reason why there are no more dinosaurs. They have all degenerated into todays chickens.

Yup, you’re right. Sorry to have bothered you.

Are you talking about me?

“Fighting all of NATO” - as a German, I did not know that I was at war with Russia right now. Am I?

I get your anger towards the US. And probably towards the EU. Towards NATO as a whole. Our history is stained with imperialism, and we should all be working against that. Dont falsely assume that I am on the side of the empire.

But this does not necessarily make Russia (or China) some sort of safe haven. Some days ago, I had to argue with US nazis that the US and Russia are the only working democracies left in this world, and Europe is a “autocratic dictatoraship” - which is obviously BS. Our system is FAR from perfect, and we experience propaganda - as does nearly every other state. But Russia, China, and the US are definitly broken systems, and ALL of them are imperialistic. So are you telling me that you are against evil NATO empire, therefore you are rooting for the evil Russian empire?

Yes, it is.

RU is burning its demographic future for marginal territorial gains. It is spending lives and capital faster than it can regenerate them.

Its economy becomes more and more war-dependent, which means peace itself becomes destabilizing.

The brain drain Putins war causes is not a temporary inconvenience, but a strategic wound. They really traded long-term modernization for short-term militarization.

It has pushed Europe into rearmament and made the continent stronger, not weaker. And it is losing access to Western technology faster than it can replace it.

It is becoming China’s junior partner, not an independent great power.

Every year of war raises the cost of any political exit.

They may very well survive the war, but the path they chose consumed the foundations of their own power.
