  • Hey, I’m sure I’ll be the first to be downvoted, but I’ve maintained a self-made sourdough starter for 8 years. It’s survived spills, falls, mishandling, and everything you can imagine. I’ve made hundreds of pounds of dough and even started a side pizza business. We’ve kept it in the refrigerator for months and fed it equally outside when active. We never use whole wheat, only choosing high-protein white all-purpose flour, mixing it 1:1 with equal parts water every day when active. Good luck—it’s not rocket surgery, at least from my experience.

    Don’t stress it, feed it everyday for at least a month, treat it like a pet- good luck!


  • I don’t want to retract my comment; I understand that not everything is whataboutism or black and white in history. Nicaragua is right to condemn Germany, and I support that. However, sometimes I feel our access to global affairs and the education we receive can be incredibly narrow, especially if we rely on media outlets to feed us information. Generations come and go, and historical events are often left unexplored, particularly if they involve any shadow of U.S. interference.

    Daniel Ortega is still in power today, and some would characterize his past and current actions as those of a despot. Yes, wiping out Gaza is on another level, I agree, but with my opinion I’d like to encourage people to read a bit about Ortega and his sordid past https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Ortega







  • In the EU, there are standards that must be adhered to, but it’s unclear what privacy standards Meta will maintain or discard in other parts of the world. Their “free” WhatsApp messenger monetizes by collecting user data, including device information, contacts’ phone numbers, and usage patterns. This data collection also allows them to pinpoint your location and share this information with Facebook.

    Outside the EU, Meta could potentially use other apps to supplement these data points. It has been well documented that WhatsApp/Meta has shared this data with authorities when required in the past. This move doesn’t give me the warm and fuzzies.
