I generally think of “ancestral lands” as something inhabited for thousands of years, not 114 years

'More and more hunger': Argentina's soup kitchens on brink of collapse from high inflation (www.reuters.com)

A week ago, 20 kilograms (44 pounds) of pasta was enough to feed the dozens of families who visit the Sal de la Tierra soup kitchen in Villa Fiorito, a poor Buenos Aires suburb beset by the economic crisis ravaging Argentina. But with monthly inflation topping 20%, the number of hungry residents has soared. This week, the soup...

Argentina’s statistics agency on Wednesday published annual inflation of 254% as January inflation edged down to 20.6% from 25.5% a month earlier, just below forecasts of 257% and 21% according to analysts polled by Reuters.

that part is really confusing - it’s down 20.6% to 254% from 257%?

pan_troglodytes ,

interesting how the standard Presidential term is also four years…

pan_troglodytes ,

less a question and more of an opinion. is there an opinion community? maybe post there instead

pan_troglodytes ,

juvee and then prison when they age out.

pan_troglodytes ,

first two paragraphs should be enough to convince anyone that it’s not news, just a highly biased opinion piece

pan_troglodytes ,

never heard of Vizio

pan_troglodytes ,

you could have a winning personality - make women laugh (with you, not at you)… alternately, you could obtain a lot of muscles, that’s all some women need. or move somewhere where men are in short supply - or where you’d be seen as exotic… and it’d be cheaper than leg lengthening surgery.

riiiiiiiiight

modern day vikings gonna loot’n’pillage

this article was far more interesting and informative --> bellingcat.com/…/identifying-the-mystery-vessel-a…

Man charged with beheading father carried photos of federal buildings, bomb plans, DA says (apnews.com)

The suburban Philadelphia man charged with decapitating his father and posting a video online in which he held up the severed head had a device with photos of federal buildings and apparent instructions for making explosives when he was arrested, authorities said Thursday....

pan_troglodytes ,

was the kitchen knife like, a meat cleaver or just a normal paring knife? honestly, article reads like meth psychosis was the real culprit

pan_troglodytes ,

it seems like one of the key defining principals of the fediverse is platform evolution - mastodon, bluesky, and lemmy are just going to be footnotes in history.

pan_troglodytes ,

good, now do India!

pan_troglodytes ,

why not just hold it, frozen, until Putin dies/gets assassinated and someone not batshit crazy takes his place?

pan_troglodytes ,

if found guilty, yes - generally people in that situation arent actually paying you back though, that’s why you have homeowners insurance.

it’s different because it’s not your house, it’s a country.

pan_troglodytes ,

so what? the UN isnt going to do anything about it.

Russia Using Thousands of Musk’s Starlink Systems in War, Ukrainian General Says (www.wsj.com)

“Ukraine’s top military-intelligence officer said Russian invasion forces in his country are using thousands of Starlink satellite internet terminals, and that the network has been active in occupied parts of Ukraine for ‘quite a long time,'” the Wall Street Journal reports....

pan_troglodytes ,

lol. the enemy adopting the same foreign technology that you’re using is just another sign that your war is unwinnable.

pan_troglodytes ,

why would you hang out in person when you can hang out virtually/in a game from the comfort of your own home? you dont even need to get dressed up (or dressed at all)

pan_troglodytes ,

other than the hardware needed to get to the hangout spot/restaurant/etc, the added cost of getting there/buying whatever to participate in the hanging out

seems more like an article funded by a restaurant association or something

pan_troglodytes ,

is the definition of hardship static or is it scaling?

pan_troglodytes ,

it’s not really difficult to recycle plastics (depolymerisation) - but it’s not cheap to do it at scale and there really isnt any way to profit from it, so it’s just not done.

If I put a gallon of 10% cider vinegar in a shallow pan and let 1/2 gallon evaporate, will that make it double its strength?

I have plant trays I use in the spring and they get lime deposits from my water. I was looking at cleaning vinegar at lowes last night and it was $27+ a gallon. Regular vinegar is about $4 a gallon. The cleaning vinegar is only around 25%.

pan_troglodytes ,

30% vinegar is pretty amazing stuff, I use it on my toilet every 6 months or so. really eats away those organic stains. used it for cleaning metal a few times too, it’s a really solid purchase.

no idea about the evaporation.

Ukraine’s Zelensky Signs Medical Marijuana Bill, A Step He Says Can Heal ‘Pain, Stress and Trauma Of War’ With Russia (www.marijuanamoment.net)

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has officially signed a bill to legalize medical marijuana—a step that he and other officials say can help soldiers address physical and mental wounds incurred during the nation’s war with Russia....

pan_troglodytes ,

as long as the troops are imbibing on their off time/not while on patrol then I dont see how it matters if it’s legal or not. what are they going to do, send them to the war front?

pan_troglodytes ,

define enlightened using your own words not via a google search

pan_troglodytes ,

in regards to that definition then: yeah, I’d say people are, on the whole, more enlightened than they were a century ago. the scientific method is more thoroughly accepted/baked in at a societal level, and the mass adoption of digital communication facilitates a greater sense of community… though the resulting communities are often at odds with each other.

pan_troglodytes ,

brand new sentence

pan_troglodytes ,

just like Germany’s V2 rockets! but using proven tech

pan_troglodytes ,

perhaps Brazil or whomever should stop burning it down?

pan_troglodytes ,

anime/manga high school of the dead zombies is my favorite example

pan_troglodytes ,

some other hospital just got promoted

pan_troglodytes ,

factory farming is far more economically viable - real, in person/family farming is really hard work. most people cant do it unless they’re born into a farming family & many choose not to continue. tractors, combines, etc are not cheap, and a bad year might ruin you financially. it’s far simpler and easier for everyone (in the supply chain) to get a corporation to do the farming.

pan_troglodytes ,

not sure what you’re referring to in terms of health impacts to society regarding corporate farming - food is significantly more readily accessible and cheaper (and partially unhealthier) than at any point in history. a lot of the responsibility for that comes down to factory farming.

morality wise? free roaming/uncaged/whatever animals are still going to be killed in great numbers so that we can eat. people have been killing and eating other animals since before humanity evolved from Homo Erectus. the “quality of life” question is rather meaningless, animals that exist in the food supply chain were literally born so they could be turned into food. it’s criminally inefficient and not economically viable to raise 10 cows (or pigs or whatever) in the same space where you can raise 40. vertical integration will be the next big milestone, and it’ll be a big win for everyone involved.

pan_troglodytes ,

lol. not rationalization, just the cold hard truth.

pan_troglodytes ,

then what terminology is used to refer to industrial scale agriculture in general? I’ve always used “factory farming” for corpo owned farms.

pan_troglodytes ,

eh… do you really want to be scheduled to start work at 8am when 8am is mid-afternoon? me neither.

pan_troglodytes ,

yeah I see what you mean. you’d have to replace all 12 hour clocks world-wide though - and then accept that it would take generations for people to adapt. it’d probably never going to happen.

pan_troglodytes ,

a candidate for a nice long stay in prison

pan_troglodytes ,

Rwanda is blameless then?

pan_troglodytes ,

could still play out that way - but Nigeria isnt the most stable place, a hard shove or two would easily topple their house of cards

pan_troglodytes ,

Bernie’s retiring from politics then?

At least 11 injured, homes, infrastructure damaged in morning Russian missile attack on Ukraine (kyivindependent.com)

pan_troglodytes ,

but Ukraine launching drones at Russian cities is ok

pan_troglodytes ,

depends on what side of the battlefront you’re on

pan_troglodytes ,

still very impressive.

After searing inflation, "American workers are getting ahead," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says (www.cbsnews.com)

As of the end of 2023, the typical U.S. worker could afford the same goods and services as in 2019, prior to the pandemic, and had an additional $1,400 to spend or save per year, according to a January analysis by Treasury officials....

pan_troglodytes ,

must be weird to be so divorced from reality…

pan_troglodytes ,

they just need more microphones & probably a network of cameras on every street corner.

pan_troglodytes ,

I bet you’d feel differently if you were in an ambulance trapped behind that mess of traffic or had a loved one in that situation. or maybe you’re a sociopath, I dunno.
