Yeah, if you print to a printer what you’re most often doing is saving it as an Adobe PostScript file and sending that to the printer. PDF is similar, just with extra bells and whistles.

If radishes go the full bean here on Lemmy, I’ll expect to see this posted again in 3 days with a silhouette of Saddam Hussein hidden somewhere.

I haven’t been to a Disney park since the early 90s, and everything I hear about the experience now sounds like hell.

Humanitarians are not that broad in diet, they only eat people who study culture and society (the humanities).

I had a car shaped rewinder when I was a kid.

Nestle’s long history of sacrificing infants for profits continues strong.

As soon and my alarm goes off I think “Ok, 9 1/2 hours”

It’s oddly good. To do it right use unsalted butter and then add seasoning with salt and pepper once the butter is melted.

I haven’t touched a facebook product in almost 15 years and my life has been nothing but better for it.

There’s the accelerated bleaching of coral reefs. The increasing rate of back beach erosion especially on the west coast of the US (now USGIS estiames say the Pacific Northwest won’t have any natural sand beaches left by 2100). The rapid weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and the Jet Stream. Mass-crab migrations started a couple years ago due to warming ocean temps. The Brazilian Rain Forest is probably past the point of no return. The Great Salt Lake might not make it 2040 (instead of 2100 - 2150) without another shift in weather patterns. Insect armageddon has happened way faster than anyone thought. And the massive ramp up in seasonal forest fires in North America has gotten bad far faster than expected.

When I was getting my bio degree in the late 90’s, early 00’s we learned a lot of worst case scenario models for climate change, many of which seem to be coming to pass. Those scenarios were for ~2080 - 2100.
