Canned foods tend to have less nutrients compared to fresh or frozen fruits/veggies.
IIRC, frozen actually has the most nutrients because its harvested when its ripest versus fresh produce thats harvested earlier than it should be and "ripens " as its delivered and shelved. Could be wrong, just something I remember hearing.
I prefer fresh to frozen, because of the texture changes.
Mostly, but sometimes cooking them can actually increase some values by breaking down cell walls and making nutrients more available (to a point, anyhow).
I have jDownloader set up on my Synology server which does everything that DownThemAll would do for me and more. There are desktop clients available for jDownloader as well.
Quitting drinking is a peculiar beast. If you were a “normal” drinker, you might only experience some mild mood irritation or have an issue getting to sleep if nightcaps were your thing. You might experience nothing.
If you were a heavy drinker and immediately quit, that can actually kill you. I am going to be realistic here: Ex-drinkers in my class of alcoholic could drink a few bottles of wine, or a case of beer or 5th of liquor throughout the day and then drink more after that, pass out drunk and then start the next morning with a couple of shots.
Alcohol withdrawal in those extreme cases can be deadly. When I quit, I was in bed for a week, with supervision, and had a detox center on speed dial, just in case. It’s no joke. (I should add that my approach was still risky and stupid.)
But yeah, quitting anything that is addictive is going to piss your body off a little. Eventually, if you lay off the “bad things” long enough, your body will recover. You can see the full gambit with nicotine though: Agitation, higher BP, sweats, etc. It depends on your body.
Above all else, talk to a doctor. Everyone’s situation is always unique and is rarely diagnosed properly over social media.
I second this, I was an extreme drinker and ended up in the hospital several times… Last couple relapses I drank myself down, which is extremely risky and stupid.
Ironically, in the future, Firefox will be the only browser to properly support uBlock Origin. Chromium will kill adblockers through their MV3 garbage. Switch to Firefox, use the proper version of uBO and keep your browsing license.
As someone who grew up in and still has family in a small town (5-10k pop) - Things may be cheaper but no one’s paying livable wages even for these small towns.
Depends where you live and if there’s a minimum of labor laws. With the minimum wage around here I could easily afford a one bedroom apartment in the town I live in and I probably wouldn’t have any reason to work minimum wage since there’s an industrial sector in the town with businesses looking for staff. 7k in population, so services available including an hospital…
I know that Georgia is very lenient on maximum stay, 364 days a year and any day outside of the country the days are reset. You’re essentially a citizen that has to take mandatory annual vacations.
Tblisi is pretty well developed from what I have heard and it’s a very safe and peaceful place (ignoring 2008 >:( ). It’s still pretty poor compared to developed countries, so despite that human development is decent, you won’t be able to afford as many foreign products (especially tech).
Not overly high tech but such a good fit for the culture and extremely convenient:
Self-filling, self-warming baths
Put the plug in during the day, press the button to fill the bath at the remote keypad in the kitchen. Baths fills and a little jingle announces that the bath is ready at the perfect temperature.
Yeah, I’ve got a self filling one. Nice to run a bath without even getting out of bed. Although if you forget to put the plug in first, you’ll arrive to an empty bath.
Dark Reader. This does a pretty technically-impressive-to-me job of making reasonable dark versions of pages. It’s not perfect – there are a handful of sites that it needs to be toggled off for, makes something hard to read – but I’m amazed that it does the job it does.
Blank Dark Tab: Replace the new tab with a blank page matching Firefox’s built-in dark mode
Stylus: Doesn’t do anything on its own, but permits collections of third-party themes to be applied to websites to fix annoyances.
Greasemonkey. This doesn’t do anything on its own, but it permits people to publish little modifications to be applied to webpages, permits for a lot of little scripts that fix annoyances on websites. There were a number of useful scripts that I used on Reddit.
Misc
Edit with Emacs. Permits opening the contents of a textarea in an external emacs instance. Nice for things like, say, writing a large lemmy post in Markdown. I vaguely recall that, at least some years back, there was a way to embed a version of vim in Firefox textareas, so if vim’s your cup of tea, that might be interesting, if it’s still around.
Instance Assistant for Lemmy and Kbin. A variety of quality-of-life fixes for lemmy and kbin. Lets one open a given lemmy/kbin post on their local instance if they wind up viewing a page on a remote instance.
Reddit Enhancement Suite. If you still use Reddit, this has an enormous collection of quality-of-life improvements for Reddit.
EDIT: I don’t know if this is the embedded vim that I recall, but Firenvim seems to do roughly the same thing, if not.
EDIT2: There’s also some “overlay remover” plugin that can bypass a number of obnoxious overlays that I use on my desktop, but I don’t have it installed on this machine. I think that it’s Behind the Overlay.
I would love to be a person* in my late 20s - early 30s in 1920-1930 traveling amongst Western European cities.
Art Deco, The Jazz Age, surrealism and cubism in art, the birth of radio, electricity and cars, Albert Einstein and Nicolai Tesla expanding the scientific consciousness of the human race while Alexander Fleming discovers penicillin. Women get the vote while Egypt and spiritualism grip popular imagination. Monarchies crumble and democracies rise.
It would have been an incredible experience to live through.
Of course, a lot of people were unfairly treated during this time too. Its easy romanticize the good and ignore the awful.
