My puke bucket holds wood chips now.

Huh, when I was sick my parents just made me sleep in the bathtub (they’d put towels in and make it special)

My wife and I both got a stomach flu earlier this year and we have a mop bucket I can’t look at the same.

Some hobbit in 3000 years will get one and use it to display their fresh fruit collection

They’ve got what plants crave.

We’ve all moved on to using hard plastic popcorn containers instead of bowls for holding fruit and eating.

Get with the times oldie!

Oh my god, in a few years we’ll lose them completely!

Honestly I haven’t had to say something in almost a decade

Which of the Pickwick triplets did it?

Who of the crew would commit this crime?

Might a little brat make a mommy go splat?

It’s a story pretty gory for a nursery rhyme!

We’ve got some strong Star Trek nonsense brewing in !tenforward@lemmy.world

I don’t care if it catches on, I’m enjoying it here where the people are still awesome.

I skimmed that link and it’s pretty interesting, I’ll have to spend more time on it. I definitely liked the part at the end about God being the observer in this context, so what’s a day to him.

Thanks for that

I don’t see why God must be incompatible with evolution or the Big Bang or really any of science. God created us to be clever, surely that includes using logic and science to learn about the world.

Personally I’m agnostic and I try not to judge people. I do judge people who dismiss science and decide faith alone is better.

Also this doesn’t say anything about the Earth.

Plus you can give a liberal reading of the bible to be:

1. god created the heaven and the earth. God created the heavenly bodies.
2. God created the sky - earths atmosphere and climate
3. God separates oceans - creates continental forms, and plant based life
4. God creates the moon and sun and stars. This one seems out of order to me… maybe just the earth and solar system stabilize. I don’t know how plants exist without the sun, so maybe it’s microbes or something.
5. God creates birds and sea creatures. Maybe birds are dinosaurs.
6. God creates modern land animals, then creates man and woman. That makes sense, mankind is certainly new with only a few hundred thousand years of records before civilization starts.

That doesn’t have to imply the earth is 4000 years old. Even the original wording could be read as eon instead of day.

Yeah, I watch Alone and I’ve seen Outlast. No way are 99% of people going to be able to live like that. Even the contestants who prep and practice and research only last a few weeks in the winter.

You would need a small community, agriculture and to store your food for winter, and livestock for reliable protein. Even then there’s a good chance you get wiped out by diseases unless you’re making soap and prepping food and water safely.

Gas only lasts like 6 months before expiring. It can be stabilized to last a couple of years, but within 3-5 years all existing gas would be unusable (as far as I understand it).

Running a solar system past its ideal life when it holds even 20% of a charge and has lower efficiency is better than nothing.

I certainly hope so. It’s been great seeing PopOS and Linux Mint pushing the bar on what a good linux desktop experience can be.

I’d love to see Linux become a stronger competitor to macos (which is what I’ve used for almost 20 years).

Adium was awesome, that was the golden age of computing and the internet in my opinion.

I’ll probably be one of them.

That would be only one of the many competing reasons for my murder.

I do have camping gear, woodworking hand tools, a good bike, I know how to shoot and clean fish+game and cook, and I have knowledge of some remote areas with sparse populations including their flora.

On paper it all sounds good, but I would likely die miserably in the first Canadian winter.
