Funny article title. Skimmed it - raised good points about some of general pitfalls of carbon offset

Oy… sending love over the internet. A member of my community decided against going to nova the night before, I can only imagine what it’s been like for you.

I’m happy to hear this but honestly I’m confused as to how flipboard is supposed to work with federated media. I thought it was basically an RSS aggregator? Could someone explain

This reminds me of those hitler quotes that people were duped into agreeing with and then being told it was said by hitler.

Youtube is now fully blocking me from watching videos if my adblocker is on. I use firefox with uBlock. I turned it off and then they claimed that I still had an adblocker on. After swapping my user agent to Chrome it started working again. Has anyone else have this happen to them?

This feels like they're trying to push people into using chromium based browsers.

Far too many leftists, like their right wing nut counterparts, are contrarians at heart. This is what happens when political ideology becomes a personality trait; it becomes akin to a religion.

hit the nail on the head with that. I've seen so many leftists horseshoe into this perverted self righteousness. and it is even more frustrating when they act like they are directly involved in a conflict they really have nothing to do with.

This makes me think of those memes where people struggle with telling white male celebrities apart

Much easier to back into a spot compared to pulling in, safer to pull out. And it doesn’t take much longer. Once you know how to do it it’s very very quick

Case in point. I’m still waking up and thought that said adobe is taking on adobe

With all due respect - how much discussion about Elon can there really be? Maybe a couple of substack posts here and there to get more insight but realistically it’s just the same thing over and over again. Special man got mad and has been throwing a years long temper tantrum- decimating a company in the process. I don’t think that’s gonna change and I’m pretty tired of seeing him clog up my feed.

Fluids! Fluids! Fluids!

Honestly just gotta let it run its course - treat the symptoms and don’t let yourself suffer. But the one thing I personally dislike is the combo drugs, as a rule of thumb it’s better to take individual meds instead of something like nyquil/dayquil - it can just get messy with appropriate dosing. Just see what’s in those combos and buy the individual meds if you can - not the end of the world if you use the quils but I think it’s just better overall.

To answer your question though - no, taking meds to manage symptoms won’t prolong the illness. It might make you more likely to physically exert yourself and then make the healing slower but that’s likely gonna be negligible.

Fluids, eat, and rest. Hope you get better soon!
