  • Yes I agree, they should be allowed to wear a mask when ever they want. And I’ll always avoid a business that has some kind of terrible policy like this.

    I’m more honestly asking, as someone that does wear masks and avoids going out if I feel sick or know I’ve been exposed. How much benefit is the 15 min wait it will take to prepare the food?


  • I don’t see how. Since the covid pandemic I wear masks if I’m sick or know I was around someone that’s sick and I have to be somewhere with people. But it would be so much less possible harm if I just stay home during that time. So like if I felt like I needed a mask, I would either not go traveling or I would wear a mask and not eat in public.

    The point is that you can’t wear a mask while eating or drinking so it’s literally 10-15 minutes you’re actually talking about wearing a mask in the restaurant.

    Huh, didn’t know that the fig fruit was also the flower.

    So does the wasp simply help the propigation of the fig tree when it poliniates or does it helps the fig fruit ripen?

    I know fig trees can also propgate via cutings too, so I’m wondering how essential wasps are to fig farms.

    Edit: To clarify, it would be best if anyone that feels they should wear a mask in the restaurant while they wait for the food, be allowed.

    As someone that thinks masks work, I got a few takes on this.

    1. In the USA, a private company can legally refuse service to anyone for any reason except a legally protected reason. If a company doesn’t like your shirt they don’t have to serve you. But if they don’t like that you are gay they have to say they don’t like your shirt, if they don’t serve you because you a gay, thats illegal.

    2. While it’s stupid that they won’t serve the doctor wearing a mask, wasn’t the doctor going to take their mask of like immediately after sitting at the table to drink something while looking at the menu? At the very most, they would take it off to eat the food right? So they were denied service so that they could at most wear a mask for like 15 mins while they wait for the food to be made.

    3. If you have to take you mask off to eat, is it really worth it to keep you mask on for as much as possible? Assuming your intention is not to spread disease from yourself to others, how much more harm would an additional 15 mins cause? I honestly don’t know but if it’s non-trivial, perhaps eating at a sitdown restaurant (which normally takes longer) is morally wrong. Although, not as morally wrong as denying service to someone wearing a mask.


  • It’s not hard to crack sunflower seeds and then separate the seeds from the shell without putting it in your mouth.

    Also, assuming these are not salted and if they are going into a compost pile that is reaching the correct heat, it won’t matter if it was in someone’s mouth or even if there is mold on it as it will literally cook out.





  • Here is the summary paragraph.

    FreeBSD 14.1 overall was the best BSD performer among the BSDs tested on this AMD Ryzen Threadripper workstation from System76. FreeBSD was doing well in both the kernel micro-benchmarks as well as in a variety of other workloads tested. It was refreshing to see how well the new FreeBSD 14.1 was performing and competing with the likes of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and CentOS Stream 9. Those wishing to see even more benchmarks form this Threadripper 7980X BSD/Linux comparison can do so via this result page.

    And here is a Geometric Mean Of All Test Results.

    Overall, I’m surprised at how well Ubuntu preformed.
