Star Trek crew arrives at a planet. Meets a group of aliens. Meets another group of different aliens. Both aliens are literal opposites of each other. Doesn't agree about one issue. Crew fixes issue. Star Trek ship leaves.

You want to see Lemmy succeeds? Here are some ideas to contribute with content
Just started on Lemmy. I love how new things pop up but is there a way to not have things show up but not necessarily resort to blocking the community. Star Wars memes for my example.

Why are dried pickles not a thing
Reply in thread
In case serious. Before refrigeration and Air conditioning were invented, farmers wanted to keep their produce from going bad.
You had a few options, canning, bottling, pickling, salting, drying. Canning was invented 250 years ago or so. Bottling was a thing as long as bottles have been around, which is 500 or so years ago. Beyond that, the best way to ensure food doesn't grow bacteria or mold or whatever on it is to make the food inhospitable to microbial life, so by depriving it of water or putting something in it that prevents growth. So vinegar and salt.
That's why pickles are a thing. We now live in an age where food "just comes from the grocery or food kiosk or restaurant". Mostly due to improvements in technology. But food usually comes in seasons. Whether hunting, fishing or planting. Fruit cocktail canning is done over the course of a month in a year. 24 hours nonstop.
Cucumbers grow easily. Preserving them turns them into pickles.

[MWO] Big Beach Party 2023 Event. Which hero mechs do you plan to get?
Just joined Lemmy. Glad to see the MW/BT communities slowly taking root here.
I am just joining the event for the shooty shooty stompy stompy. As for hero mechs, I'll figure it out, but off the cuff I'd say the Widow Maker since I unfortunately missed that event.

Photo of Thomas Edison and his wife Mary Stilwell the night before Edison invented the light bulb (1879)
Candles and lamps existed before the light bulb. Gas light was a whole industry, which is why we have the term gaslighting.
