It's decisions like these that separate good leaders from the bad ones. Emotions can't come into the picture on scales this large. They have to look at the data and put a value on a life. This is tough and necessary. My great grandfather, though he wasn't really a farmer, grew and sold peanuts and it helped get my family through the Great Depression. If you really want to help the poor, peanuts are a good way.

My toddler has started 3hrs of daycare a week to get her out of the house and expose her to others and I was pretty surprised to find out about the nut ban that is pretty much everywhere these days. I didn't have to deal with all of this with her older sister. Nuts, and peanuts in particular, are probably the healthiest food around, especially when cost, availability, and environmental impact are considered. These policies MIGHT save a few lives, yet they eliminate great benefit overall.

@artyr3 Sounds cool, I have yet to dig into BSD audio.

19 Your dead shall live.
Their dead bodies shall arise.
Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust;
for your dew is like the dew of herbs,
and the earth will cast out the departed spirits.

@blueberry That is a shame. Is it in any way related to Covid19? Best of luck

This might be the key to getting through a game of Monopoly.

Will give it a shot this weekend, but that description on the website...

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org I know that simple little things done regularly can really improve people's health, quality of life, and longevity. That's kinda what I'm looking for. Anyone worth learning from will admit they don't have it all figured out and that it is complex. One thing is sure, what we put in our mouths makes a difference.

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org True, and being fructose is a little harder on the liver. I've been getting into understanding nutrition for about a year and it is tough. I like Dr. Peter Attia and the way he digs into topics, but just started reading How Not to Die by Dr. Michael Greger and finding opposing ideas.

@mudgeelight That seems like the sanest way to introduce kids to the benefits of social media while shielding them from the stuff they're not ready for. Sadly, I looked through the user options and that functionality is absent, though it would probably be trivial to implement. Let's both poke around and see what we can come up with this week.

Heard that orange juice lowers your blood pressure, so I tested it out today. Verified. 125-110 psi 30min after drinking 12 ounces and still working after 3 hours. My BP isn't that high, but dang, why didn't I know this before?

@mudgeelight I'm pretty sure that it is possible to configure a Mastodon instance to be insular. My instance runs on a DigitalOcean droplet that I use for other things as well for $20/month(cheaper exists).

@Rinati That is great news!

@lo You know, I'm usually against the whole, concept of "every mistake you've ever made" being immortal on the internet, but in this case it's not so bad.

@Gina Running with friends makes it better.

@bclindner@mastodon.technology It really is pretty cool. I wonder where we will be in the future. Will we have machines that can print out completely organic computers or will some of the products designed for space be super robust and be able to last generations?
