The ones pictured are stainless steel, not sterling silver. Service for 8 is less than $300 on Amazon.

The amount of water you/me/anyone can process is completely different... No one should ever take medical advice from anyone but a physician that actually knows them personally, their activity level, medical history, and I wish it could go without saying; but, at this point, what resources are actually available to them.

While I agree it's a disgusting habit... All my bad health news came after I quit! Granted, in 25 years of smoking I only went to a doctor like 2-3 times, but why aren't I immortal now??? I was perfectly healthy when I couldn't stop coughing, and could barely breathe!

All jokes aside, I'm amazed I'm in as good of health that I am. Started at 16, I'm 40 now and quit a little over 4.5 years ago.

I hate to say it, but the only thing that got me to quit was working for a company that went 100% non smoking 5 years ago... I left a few months later, but it had nothing to do with the ban on smoking, it was their ban on hiring/promoting/or transferring from one's current position if they lived in a state with wage transparency 😎

I love the sparkle of my Moissanites so much better than my diamonds.

That was a lovely rant on semantics. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

My husband and I have been sitting on our patio since a little before sunset sipping on cocktails. After the sun went down we started watching movies on our patio projector, enjoying the weather, and playing with our dogs. It's a new day now, but we're still out here so it's been a great day so far.

I think the internet as a whole is going to be the closest we'll ever come. Capitalism will make sure it's never even close to complete so it always has something to monetize.

Yes, you are viewing the post that was made on Lemmy.ca, federation allows you to see posts on other instances. You are able to see the post and comment because of federation, lemmy.world grabs a cached copy to show it's users, the actual post is still on the original server. If you want to share a post, and let others interact in the comments, the link needs to be to the actual post. If you just want them to see something, and not know where it came from, a screenshot might be better.

I've never had a need for the headphone jack, so I didn't care one way or another when they started dissappearing. But, I can definitely see how removing such a simple and cheap port from phones would be such an issue for a lot of people. No one should be forced into replacing accessories that work perfectly for no reason, just adds to all the damned e-waste already generated.

I have been slowly de-googling my life. I bought a domain, and have my email hosted on no-ip.com for like $15 a year now. Has been working great for the past 8 months. I have switched all my important login accounts to those accounts. I'm still keeping the spammy store logins and such on Google. The only thing worrying me about loosing with my Google account are all my app purchases going back back to the day it existed.

How would that work? The post exists on that instance. You're home instance just caches a copy. To share from your home instance the post would need to be recreated on that instance, so a new community with the same name would need to be created with it.
