It’s not just deforestation, especially in Orangutan habitats that are endangered. They are also rife with forced labor, ie slave labor. They lure desperate foreigners with promises of good jobs, baiting and switching them with a life of slavery doing hard, very hard labor, including kids. The families can sometimes bail them out by paying several thousand dollars, a lot of money to these impoverished bangladeshis and Indians and the like.

Many of the desparate migrants that can speak english well are now sold to chinese gangs to run romance scams from slave compounds, a 40 billion dollar a year industry just in S. Asia they figure now, pig butchering and the like.

Need to find one without any palm oil, boycott palm oil.

Also where is the wintergreen?

Further down it was explained, like badmitton or tennis but lazier I guess.

It’s not a particularly dangerous sport either, don’t know how this asshole killed himself doing it, must have been an act of god.

Nothing is too stupid for 2026!

What is it?

What the hell is pickleball?

I heard that one too, looks like it didn’t work then? They are just sticking it out without working toilets and fire damaged beds?

Or, Israel and or their superfans, will find some mentally ill, and lead them to commit a terrorist act, to gin up further support for escalation.

While I don’t know what that means, I did read that when using whatsapp in a bloc where the government has control of the telecommunications, they can see who is messaging who by seeing someone sent and someone received a message at the exact same time. Probably is the same for other encrypted messaging apps. Reported in The Intercept.

I was saying a lot of questionable luigi mangione related things after that happened, I couched it all, never came right out saying anything, but that might have caught up with me. That was several accounts ago but they can tell it’s you still I hear tell even though I use temporary email to sign up.

So reddit admin targets me, no permaban because I abandon accounts after a second violation, or a first now, just in the first week, for something not even close to promoting violence that they held up on appeal.

Can I make an anonymous account? Like use a vpn, I already use a temporary email like guerilla mail to sign up. Or could I even use Tor to access? I actually kind of need it for networking on some of my work stuff.

I can fairly certainly confirm that influnece agents are active on lemmy. Including plenty of US government connected ones ginning up support for the Iran war. Especially on the larger .world accounts it appears.

I’m glad they violated my account for a non violation and denied my appeal in the first week of opening a new account then. They aren’t trying to make their moderation believable, I’m persona non grata for whatever reasons, to appease the administration I presume.

Fuck them, glad I stayed off. I kind of need the help on some stuff though, there just aren’t enough people or communities on here yet.

Iran has a right to defend themselves.

In rural china their farms traditionally have one, like a tank they route sewage and scraps and whatever, and they pipe off the gasses for cooking and heating and such, as it produces methane and the like.

You can try a swamp cooler, which works best when it’s not as humid, put a beach towel or blanket over an open windown with it’s end in a pot of water, so the water soaks up through it. The evaporation produces a cooling effect. Try to put one in a window the air is coming into.

Would not help here, we get like zero sun for half the year, and surrounded by trees otherwise. I haven’t seen the sun for more than a couple of hours in weeks.

I was told the old batteries aren’t trustworthy when I was going to salvage some from cars getting junked out, but you can get them to work still?

Democracy Now! Is a nonprofit run by Amy Goodman. 5 days a week since idk when, a long time.

I trust them because they are the only ones that will call out a lot of lies. PBS has to kowtow on a lot of stuff, as a broadcast network and all. Democracy Now is fearless.

At times I won’t eat until midday, if not until dinner. If I do eat before then, I lose energy, I think it boosts metabolism and energy. I am just not hungry in the morning sometimes I’m not trying to fast per se.
