Peanut butter sandwiches can get really calorie dense rather quickly.
My go-to “energy sandwich” that I will eat before a day of surfing has crunchy peanut butter on both slices of bread, and dried apricots, cherries, cranberries, raisins, or banana slices, with some granola and a drizzle of maple syrup.
They’re delicious, and about 1000 calories per sandwich
Not OP, but not really. The real issue is that WD-40 is kinda like duck tape. It definitely has its uses, and hoo boy are there a lot, but it’s too much power too fast, and corrupts young engineers and repair people into using it as a “fix all tool.”
Sewing machine oil is a wonderful penatrating oil. This is what you use on tools inside the house that mostly just get a bit dusty.
WD-40 does contain some oils and can be used as a penatrating oil, but it’s mainly a cleanser. You shouldn’t leave it on anything that will be damaged by cleansing solutions, so motherboards, plastic in general.
For a general use oil, for hinges and things, I will clean with WD-40, and then once I have cleaned it I wipe it down with 3 in 1 penetrating oil, for things like door hinges, or sewing machine oil for more delicate tools.

I have a spice rack that takes up a large portion of my bugout bag. I guarantee that when I start cooking and whip out some Saffron, powdered Sumac Berries, and Turmeric for a rice dish, and people will just want me to stick around and cook for them. Especially since I also have my, my father’s, and my grandfathers BSA manuals, each of which has different pictures of various edible plants, herbs, and spices that can be found in the various parts of the world.
I’ve managed to talk most of my DMs into a graduated scale of bags of holding. The cheapest is only 100gp, but it only weighs 5 pounds, and only holds 25 or 30. Something like that. It’s been years.
It made it so we all had an appropriate bag of holding by level 2, and we just upgraded as we plundered and looted the countryside “aided the poor villagers.”
I used to be with “it,” then they went and changed what was “it.” Now what used to be “it” is lame, and what is “it” is new and scary. And it will happen to you too!!!
Domestic turkeys are indeed stupid, but they are also rather aggressive. You might be ok if it is a domestic turkey.
Wild turkeys are an entirely different beast. They are smart, will ambush prey of opportunity, are rather territorial, and they can fly short distances. You wanna shoot the wild turkey hydra, though that model does indicate that it’s a domestic turkey hydra.
My parents raised turkeys, in Southern Indiana, and my brothers and I routinely startled flocks of turkeys in the woods.
There are a few apps that will upload your video directly to the cloud so that if they take and destroy your device, or the original files, they can’t destroy the evidence. There are also ACLU apps to upload the video to their servers so they can have the original video, even if the Criminals On Patrol destroy your device, or coerce you into allowing them to delete the files.
That’s your first line of defence. Make certain that your devices are pattern or password locked. Do not use biometrics. The Criminals On Patrol don’t need a warrant to force you to open your phone, in the US, if you can unlock your phone with biometrics, I.E. your fingerprint, face, or any other lock that only requires you to be there to open. Patterns and passwords have to have a warrant, and you can still refuse even with a warrant under certain circumstances.
Second line of defence: always wear some sort of protective gear. This can range from multiple layers of silk or leather clothing, all the way to anti-stab or bulletproof vests. Remember the Criminals On Patrol have no vested interest in ensuring that law abiding civilians, (what they refer to as “potentially armed enemies”) can maintain any semblance of safety. Their only objective is to protect the property of the rich.
Third line of defence: COPs are not your friends, as you have already seen. They are nothing more than state backed armed thugs that will murder you as quickly as they will look at you. Shut the fuck up, and record. Don’t say anything to these thugs as it will only make it worse for you. If they attempt to arrest you, don’t resist, allow them to illegally detain, and rob you. This isn’t always enough to keep your life, so be careful and vigilant.
Edit: If you have the ability, carry a burner phone that has all these apps, exclusively when you can. Having only an unattached burner phone, and no ID really confuses these Thugs with badges.
Well, robot means (originally meant?) something a bit different in Czech. As I understand it, robots were basically indentured servants/ slaves. It means something like “one who doesn’t think.” At least that is if all the Isaac Asimov videos I’ve watched are correct.
Unfortunately they won’t eat the billionaires. Even with all the possible “attacks” they may be playing, or they may be attacking the ships, but Orca eat literally anything that comes into their water, except us.
They’ll attack in captivity, but that’s solitary confinement in a bathroom, not even an efficiency apartment just a bathroom for their size. Would we be surprised that a human that was tortured for years in solitary confinement might just act a bit outside the normal behavior parameters for a human? No, we would not.
The only attacks in the wild on record, unless something happened extremely recently, have, historically, been because the human in question was inciting an attack with physical violence. The last one was in the late 1800s and the less said about that human, the better. He got bitten on his right arm, (the one that was wielding the harpoon,) but as soon as the Orca tasted what it had bitten, it didn’t take his arm, meaning it didn’t complete the bite. It barely bit him, tasted human, and literally spat him out. This threw the guy a few feet away. He had some gnarly scars, but he even kept full use of his arm.
This ↑: from a species that will absolutely massacre any Polar Bear that dares to venture into their waters.
We don’t know what we did. We do know that Orcas and their current evolution has existed for a few million years. We know that we have existed for somewhere between 250,000 to 300,000 years. We know that dogs have been with us for the last 200,000 years. We now know that Orca, and all other cetaceans evolved from the same species of “primitive dog” that decided that land just wasn’t where it “was at” (where it wanted to be) around 5 million years ago.
Given all of that, and the fact that we probably evolved from Chimps, the most vicious and vindictive of the great apes, except us, I have a theory. Sometime around 250,000 to 300,000 years ago a single Orca captured and killed one of us. The human involved was probably either a child or an elder. The orca thought that they were easy prey. Once they decided it was safe to share their kill with the rest of the pod, the humans came back with their entire tribe and massacred as many Orca as they could.
This event scared the Orca so much that they told all the other pods not to even nibble on the hairless apes. They used to hunt for us until we stopped giving them the reward, (the guts and entrails of other species of whales they would herd for us to hunt) and then they just started avoiding us.
I’m more concerned that the “other species” will just be us splintering into the following four groups. “Genetic Purists” that will refuse any sort of genetic or technological advancement. The Technophiles that will accept any form of genetic or cybernetic advancement. The Cyborgs that will accept only cybernetic advancements. Finally, The Neo-Humans that will only accept genetic advancements.
Wonderful. We now have only 4 possible categories of future humans. This simplifies things enormously, if, and only if, we reject the rest of our historical divisions.
If such a scenario did come to pass, I would hope that humanity as a whole is advanced enough to call out the bigots and racists, so as to shut down any division in the species. I know that we have it in us, we literally have thousands of years of prehistory that is telling us that cooperation on the grand scale is how we started.
Racism is a fairly modern concept. It was invented in Portugal in the late 1500s to early 1600s to justify the North American slave trade, because some people were asking how that could be justified under the teachings of The Christ that said that we all are equal. Racism as we know it is barely 400 years old.
I hope that as we progress we will return to the ideals of equality and democracy.
I know this is about humanity, not another species, but I fear that if this isn’t fixed before we meet another species we will inadvertently, and with the best intentions be colonizing assholes yet again.
I’m not sure that polar bear does taste good. At least not for us. The global orca diet is not the individual orca diet. For instance if an injured seal is swimming near orcas that have a diet of salmon, jellyfish, and plankton, then even though other orcas eat them, that seal is, probably, safe.
I’m explaining this badly. Basically all the Orca worldwide will eat everything, but a single pod of orca have set diets that they go after almost exclusively. Apparently some of the polar pods have decided that polar bears are worth the trouble, which isn’t surprising. The average Orca is about 2-3 times the size of a polar bear. They can bite them almost in half, if they needed to.
It’s not so much that anything tastes “good” as far as I can tell, so much as their pod has eaten “this plentiful food” in “this particular area where we live” for thousands, if not millions, of years. It’s what they are used to, and what their guts expect more than anything.
As far as I can tell, any Orca can eat anything, just like us. If that food wasn’t what they’re used to eating it will give them digestive issues such as gas or heartburn, just like us.
True. However, a lich’s “healing potion” would likely be a potion of Cause Critical Wounds, not healing. Whether or not it would be visibly similar to the Heal version would be up to the DM, I suppose. I don’t remember reading any specifics of that in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.
So, following the 90/9/1 rule, 90% lurk, 9% comment, 1% create content, we are primarily losing from the 90%? That seems to be a good thing for the long-term. As long as we aren’t losing from the 1% I’d say we’re good
Lemmy even shows ninja edits. On Reddit you had a few minutes to get a quick edit in before it would be marked as edited. Lemmy gives the mark even if you edit within 5 seconds.
I guess they needed something to promote some sort of tourism? IDK.
Edit: I’m clearly not awake enough. I read that the top poster would fight to retake the monument during an alien invasion multiple times before I posted this comment, and finally realized it read foreign invasion.
Oddly enough that’s an average of 10 points per comment.
Also I can’t see total up votes in Sync, or I haven’t figured out where that is, so I don’t know if the total karma is correct, but I can see they’ve only made 27 comments in 4 months.
