As an American who wasn’t ever raised on tea of any kind (and I don’t like coffee) but is starting to really learn to love teas and tasanes (I’m open to suggestions, by the way!), I have to ask: how the hell do you manage to drink 8–10 cups per day without dying of dehydration? If I drink more than 3 cups a day I start to really feel dried out!
I have not once in my entire life heard anyone say it like that. Where are you from? Maybe it’s a regional thing…
sen-tar
“sen-” like “cent” (like 25 cents), and “-tar” like “a tar pit”
......Okay, I’m gonna be honest. I don’t know how to respond to this.
Jesus, 12+ hours a day… That is not healthy.
I hope he’s doing okay…
Wow, fuck that other person. I can’t believe someone could be so heartless as to not only root for someone to kill themselves, but to vocally express a desire to watch it happen.
Oof.
Yep, they’re a goner.
Rip the homey.
Ohhh you know that makes sense. So, basically, what you’re saying is this?
[Files] = [Files]
[Compressed Archive] = [Files] + [Archive Metadata]
Why does it get bigger? I’ve wondered that for a while now.
I would think that compressing something that’s already compressed would still compress it further but at diminishing returns.
Oh shit.
Well that clears things up. Thanks for the explanation. thumbs-up
Oof, yeah I forgot about the metadata… What you say is certainly true and is worrisome.
Plus, most people who use email don’t use encrypted email so even if they can’t get a transcript of a conversation from my account, they can certainly get everything from the other account if they also scrape that platform.
No worries. Like I said, I recognize it’s a nitpick so not a huge deal. I just thought I’d mention it. It doesn’t invalidate your original comment or anything. :)
Lol yeah I heard about that. Apparently they also preemptively made post-quantum encryption illegal? Yeah, I don’t like the US, but I’m not sure I’d wanna live in Sweden, that’s for sure.
.............If that is the case, I...am concerned. o_o
Okay. I don’t understand your point. It may be broken. It may even suck ass. But it’s certainly not a scam.

What are they gonna do? Download gibberish?! Lol, it’s all end-to-end encrypted with the decryption keys stored locally.
Aww man seriously DuckDuckGo is on the list? Ugh… Welp, does anyone know of any good alternatives? (I hear Ecosia’s not half-bad…)
the one thing that the wealthy do understand is class solidarity
Seems we in the working class should learn something from them. Too often we fight amongst ourselves (by design!) when we should be going after the rich.
It’s not a scam. It worked perfectly first try for me back when I tried it out like a year ago.
To be fair, although admittedly a nitpick, I will say I never said that the caffeine dehydrated you, just that the teas and tisanes do, the latter of which may or may not have caffeine.
That being said, I looked it up and yeah you’re right. The evidence does seem to demonstrate that the diuretic effect of the caffeine in teas not substantial enough to really affect hydration levels.
However, it does lead me to wonder why my body seems to dehydrate if I drink more 2 cups of tea in a day. Like, it doesn’t cause me to pee more (at least not more than an equivalent amount of straight water would cause me to pee); my body just dries out.
