Is there any way we, as users, can help deal with the waves of spam-meds-bots? When I get the chance I downvote, but that's not possible for microblog. Do reporting them have any effect, or they go in the pile and are more a nuisance than a help?...
Is there a way to leverage down votes to limit content, at the magazine or instance level? I think I know the answer, but it would be dandy to put in place
A short video circulating on Russian Telegram channels shows the apparent arrest of one of the suspects in Friday’s terrorist attack outside Moscow. The suspect in the video is reportedly a 30-year-old man named Rajab Alizade.
The sources told the Financial Times that the U.S. is concerned Russia could potentially retaliate by striking energy infrastructure used by the West, which could result in higher energy prices globally.
Thanks for posting. This also took me down a rabbit hole of how Taiwan's status has also been complicated since WWII, more than I normally knew, by how Japan had agreed to surrender and how they did/didn't relinquish sovereignty of Taiwan at the time.
For nearly an hour, the driver was trapped in a tractor-trailer leaning over the side of a Kentucky bridge until a firefighter lowered on a rope made a daring rescue.
No one says "AFAB" ... the cops probably just got out their phones, waiting to post a vid of the crash. Huddled together, laughing about how fucked the driver is.

Just to keep giving kitchen scale tips... if your single item is too small to register on the scale, add multiples until it registers and divide by the quantity.
It's an obvious tip to me in retrospect but helped me and hopefully someone else.
As the Northern Hemisphere swelters under a record-breaking summer heat wave, much further south, in the depths of winter, another terrifying climate record is being broken. Antarctic sea ice has fallen to unprecedented lows for this time of year.
I'm usually really bad about turning it, perhaps once a season. I've been doing it more monthly lately though, my piles are definitely running warmer now.
I started to get into minimalism after looking at my house, I spent so much time just dealing with "stuff" that I didn't even really want. I wanted my time back, not only from dealing with it all but the mental burden before getting it out of my life.
The Reddit sub has really helped me learn new techniques to deal with it and prevent it from happening again.
Just to call out, if I'm having trouble getting rid of something that's sentimental... I take a picture of it. If I like something in a store, I can appreciate it at the store as a nice object but don't need to have it.
I'm thinking to either steep the grounds without the filter and strain afterwards or steep with the filter in the mason jar. Anyone have any experience or can share their thoughts?
