  Main reason for me is Realms limits the view distance to 16 rather than 32 on Java

• Are there other notable assassinations in recent or not-so-recent history that brought out overwhelming public support, such as, perhaps, when Gavrilo Princip shot the Archduke Franz Ferdinand?lemmy.world ↗

  I can see why Techbros would want such gorgeous invertebrates as pets but as long as they have enough enrichment in their enclosure but I would hardly call keeping these primitive worms slavery. Any kind of exotic pet always raises questions of ethicality so I understand why you’d be concerned. Do you personally know some people in the tech industry that keep these? How big a terrarium do they need and what kinds of plants and substrate do they prefer?

  That’s what it is, isn’t it. Retirement in their design department, new hires and this is a Millenial message marketing to Gen Zers (and Alphas too, automotive preference starts early)

  I think they want people to focus on the “agua” and the j and r are just little accents on it like its word art rather than a logo. Like, I literally picture the marketing weirdos at the meeting going off like this.

  I’m in the US and I pronounce it, I think a lot of people do? Maybe I just know a lot of snobs and “regular” Americans mush the word together but I don’t think so

  If you’re always reparking your car you run a risk of a collision with a distracted driver. If someone sees a car going into a spot its not unreasonable to think they’d assume the car is out of play and can be ignored. When you back out to adjust back between the lines eventually one of those times someone won’t be paying attention to you.]

  A less crowded gym because more people cancelled their memberships? Nice!

  Googled it and:

  Gut microbiota: PAs can improve the diversity of gut microbes, and can increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria while decreasing the abundance of harmful bacteria.

  Fecal odor: PAs can reduce the level of putrefactive substances in the feces, which can reduce fecal odor.

  Fecal pH: PAs can decrease fecal pH.

  Antimicrobial activity: PAs can have an antimicrobial effect on potentially pathogenic bacteria.

  Prebiotic effect: PAs can have a prebiotic effect on beneficial bacteria.

  Looks like I’m buying some seeded grapes for science!
