Agreed! Tho' there is so much more in each decade listing that could be shared. Science and knowledge continue to move forward.

Time to ditch #duckduckgo (lemmy.world)

In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened....

I use DDG, tho' it's with a VPN. And it seems to work just fine. shrug

Same with Brooklyn Recycles by Brooklyn Funk Essentials. All instrumental, except for "I support recycling". :-D

I wonder what the effect of the estimated 1 billion regular bicycles is on cutting demand for oil?

You really need this to get the effect: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=CVZHk0nt5j4

The full effect requires at least 100+ little kids merrily singing this nonsense song at the top of their lungs.

RO removes up to 99% of microplastics. Ceramic water filters, water distillation, and nanofiltration also remove microplastics.

Umm, doesn't one have to backup anything one wants to save/ have access to in the future? Aren't upgrades a thing will all software? I'm not sure how this is different for Signal versus any other messaging app. Or any app / client that produces documents, etc?

I just checked the Signal Support (https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Backup-and-Restore-Messages). And it appears there is a method generally, but not for iOS. Tho' screenshots work. And I understand how not backing up, and disappearing messages contribute to security.

ForestOrca,
@ForestOrca@kbin.social avatar

Same. I've been supporting it for some years now, but I'm upping the ante. I have many friends, family, and business associates I've been able to get on Signal. It's a super useful app, and a crucial privacy service. Let's do what we can to keep it going.

Ich war bei ich_iel, es ist ein schöner Ort. Aber wenn Sie Störe wollen, echte Störe, kommen Sie auf Turtle Island (nordamerikanischer Kontinent) vorbei. Wir haben sogar Bier. :-D

As you know, I am in charge of these things, so Stör Island it will be from now on.

The Prince is a common name for A. augustus. Maybe do a spore print, just to be sure. Did you find a lot?

ForestOrca,
@ForestOrca@kbin.social avatar

The scent is right. And that deer eat it, makes it sound like food. That's how I first found white chanterelles.

Compare to A. augustus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agaricus_augustus) -

View boxes are great! Simple to make, and easy to use.

The last solar eclipse I saw, someone had brought lace fabric to hang up in such a way that the Sun's light would shine through it and onto a wall, making many 'eclipse shadows'. I was quite visually pleasing.
