Palm Oil Free Pet Food & Pet Products
Here are some palm oil free #petfood #brands that DO NOT use rainforest-destroying #palmoil. If you are ever in doubt look for the prefixes: LAUR, STEAR, GYLC and PALM in the ingredients list on pa…Palm Oil Detectives
I’ve been really surprised to see where palm oil crops up prominently. A lot of snacks that come out of Southeast Asia things that I would normally really love to eat use that as an ingredient. So none of that for me.
We all do ourselves a favor by eating, un refined products. Pet food is notably an ultra refined product

A new OpenWrt-powered router for you to tinker with.

Turris Omnia NG Wired is a Fanless, Rack-Ready OpenWrt Router with Dual 10G Ports
It can go in a rack, runs OpenWrt, and comes with a promise of lifetime updates.Sourav Rudra (It's FOSS)
that looks pretty cool! I've been wanting an openwrt official for a while.
I've been trying to get ipfire up and running on a rpi4 to use as a travel firewall but it looks like hardening openwrt with selinux and adding more firewall software is the way to go, so I'll probably take notes from turris. Thanks!
Edit: obviously the little pi won't be able to contend with that beast but still, its a fun little decent project 😄

This is a Japanese moss garden.
I was fascinated by these as a kid and tried to make a miniature moss garden inside a terrarium. Of course I was a child and didn't understand how to make such an environment self-sustaining. But it looked lovely for awhile!

I would add more proprietary software from the big companies. Linux will never become mainstream if you can't get Adobe's products or other big companies' software suites.
Or at least sodtware that is not free. I will gladly pay for a polished, well-made app.
We can't rely on "the best app ever on Linux"......in version 0.3.1 that looks like something from the Windows XP era. Sorry to say 🙂

Just considering its an opensource project and judging from the reactions on the PR people didn't welcome the change; this is quite the wild phrasing in the end of the article:
> that is what this change looks like, but this won't be stopping the haters and conspiracy theorists from making wild accusations
I mean maybe people just didn't even want to have the 'option', without any theories?
I like the approach e.g.: agelesslinux.org/ is taking in that regard.
