  • Yes it does. There are very specific commands for what food you can and cannot eat.

    Also there are many commands that tell you not to mess with creation:

    1. Do not mix seed in your field
    2. Do not mix linen clothes with cotton clothes
    3. Do not shave/destroy your beard: because it is natural and was given to you by God. Do not destroy it
    4. A man shall not wear women’s clothing or a woman man’s clothing. Again, the principle is: respect the natural order. A man is a man, a woman is a woman

    In all these commands the principle is to not mess with the naturally created order of things.

    Therefore GM food if is an abomination. As is lab grown meat because this is not the naturally created order. Meat is only to be obtained from killing a clean animal who was naturally born and raised (no clones or lab grown animals)…

  • Yes. I use my headphone jack at least 3 times a week for 4 hours at a time went I’m on dialysis.

    Plus for home listening I have a nice pair of over ear headphones which I run off a mobile DAC/AMP which connects to the phone via 3.5mm aux cable.

    I won’t buy a phone if it doesn’t have a headphone jack. Hence my previous phone was an LG30 and my current is a Sony Xperia 10iii.

    I once tried using Bluetooth in ear headphones at dialysis and the damn thing fell out of my ear and onto the floor. Had to leave it there for hours until I was unhooked from the machine. Thank goodness the cleaner never came to sweep otherwise it would be lost forever.

    With wired this is not a problem, neither is forgetting to charge them since they don’t need charging.




  • I can’t remember it was years ago, but I got this from Mayo Clinic website today:

    “A popular artificial sweetener that’s widely found in sugar-free foods and beverages is being labeled as a possible cancer risk by the World Health Organization (WHO). WHO’s cancer research agency, International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), determined aspartame to be a possible carcinogen after reviewing and assessing the potential carcinogenic effect of the sweetener, but says it’s safe to consume in limited amounts.”

    So the WHO is saying it could cause cancer so drink it in limited amounts. So there may well be some issues with it. Definitely don’t be drinking 5 or more diet sodas a day that’s for sure.

    I don’t know why they don’t use something like sorbitol instead. It doesn’t have these issues and I never have any side effect from it whereas the few times I drank aspartame my body rejected it and kept sending it back to my tongue for me to scrape off, until all of it was out of my system.

    No other food had ever done that to me.


  • Of all the open source note apps I tried over a year ago, they didn’t seem that great. I’m also not interested in self hosting.

    I like that Keep let’s you quickly create lists, let’s you add images, you can markup images, you can pin notes, search is fast and it all backs up to the cloud seamelessy. And I can result access it on any device.

    In general I think there’s a lot to be said for Google services. Drive is great, put anything in there and have it everywhere and easily share.

    Photos is indispensable because it’s so tig byhtly integrated with Android: take a photo and instantly it’s backed up to the cloud. No worry about losing my phone because my memories will be in the cloud.

    I use Calendar all the time to manage events and reminders and it works perfectly. Also syncs to my calendar on Mint perfectly. It’s fast, easy to use, let’s you get in and out.

    Google Messages now uses RCS which is great, is designed very well, and you can also send and receive messages from the web if you want. Plus it integrates nicely with Phone, Meet and Contacts.

    It’s really hard to beat. And this is all free, although I pay €20 a year for the larger storage plan.

    You can replicate this in Nextcloud but then you need to self host, set up incoming open ports, sorry about being ddoss’d or hacked, have either a large HDD or external HDD which may fail at any time. And it won’t integrate with Android as well.

    I get people’s concern with privacy but I don’t think it’s as big a deal as people make out and end up throwing the baby out with the bath water.
