As part of their new partnership, Alpine and Reddit are launching a set of Collectible Avatars on the site, which users will be able to download and use on the platform.
Key passage:
“The real message of this study is that overweight as defined by BMI is a poor indicator of mortality risk, and that BMI in general is a poor indicator of health risk and should be supplemented with information such as waist circumference, other measures of adiposity (fat), and weight trajectory,” said study first author Dr. Aayush Visaria, an internal medicine resident physician at the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
There were articles that this was going to happen a year ago. I'm glad I bought enough to last a while. Another fantastic hot sauce is Secret Aardvark. It's hotter than Sriracha but has great flavor.
I have some of both and they aren't really similar. Sriracha is sweeter and has more garlic flavor. They seem to have a different vibe. Both are tasty though.
I understand the corporate hate, but a lot of these comments are really short sighted. The complaint is against organized stealing, not poor Steve that can’t afford bread. If organized crime is swiping groceries at a large scale then things are going to go bad for the people that really need that location to sell them food. Dollar general is just waiting to take over where larger chains move out.
Gog is doing much better than in 2022. They are making 1.2M dollars in profit. Which is pretty good for such a platform personally. I really like the ideals of GOG, but haven't really used the platform a whole lot....
I think most of us who moved here from Reddit are enjoying our time here on kbin.social. We've left a lot of the riff-raff behind us and made new friends with intelligent, thoughtful members of kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.....
Since you have experience, can I ask how much you expect it to cost to run? I have a couple decades in IT, an AWS cert, a great domain name, and a bit of disposable income. I’m thinking of putting one up myself.
When you have a group that don’t respect the rules and you don’t want to lower yourself to their level of discussion, you cut them out. Why would they be tolerated? And who is at fault here? The people wanting civility or the trolls causing issues? Why are you blaming the people defending themselves?
One of the benefits of federation is the ability to choose your sources. If one doesn’t fit your moderation style you remove it. It’s a feature, not a minus. Expect more of this until the mod tools mature and trolls make homes among the open servers.
I broke out the big guns today and opened a jar of Stonehaven. I hadn’t had any in a while and work has been tough so I splurged. I also broke out my birth year Dunhill to feel extra special. I dried it a bit, got it lit for a few puffs…and then had to take a call. I haven’t been able to pick it up again since....
Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie late Monday knocked Republicans who are defending former President Trump, who is now facing federal charges for his alleged mishandling of classifie…
Sad that things went down like this. I’m glad to be here though. I think federated content should be the future, that way we don’t build up another Reddit. The content should belong to the community, not the site admins who don’t generate it.
I’m enjoying a little holdout of We Three Kings this morning sitting in my little woodshop and thinking about what to work on today. I’m not a regular aromatic smoker but this blend is very lightly topped. Very pleasant. Now to get my boy to do a little weed whacking to make the view even nicer, lol.

OC Has anyone tried powercarving? I carved a pumpkin. I’ve gathered a decent setup over the years but I haven’t gotten too creative with it yet. It’s a nice change from cutting and sanding.
A few pipes I made over the years.
