    My mom says they used to have them in hurricane kits for when you lose power, you can still have milk. Also says they used to use them for animals on the farm and it also sometimes get used in baking/cooking as an alternative to milk so you don't thin out the batter/sauce.

    Looks like it's a thing here as well but we call it "Trockenmilch" if it's not baby formula. Cause baby formula is called "Milchpulver" which is "milk powder" whereas powdered milk is "Trockenmilch" which means "Dry milk".

    Powdered milk and powdered baby formula are different. I don't really know what purpose powdered milk serves though.

    Makes it even weirder. I thought powdered milk meant baby formula.

  3. Unions are a good thing if you don't live in a country where politicans constantly try to kill any union whatsoever. I mean, sure, a lot of top people in unions are complete assholes. But in my country, we have unions with millions of members that have achieved and continue to achieve a lot for workers.

    Free speech good. Elon wants free speech for both sides. I see this as a good thing. Unless you want arbitrary suppression based on political beliefs.

    That's the kind of distortion of facts that aligns very well with Musk. There is no free speech issue. Twitter is a private company. The part of the constitution of the United States that guarantees freedom of speech is means the government isn't allowed to restrict your freedom of speech unnecessarily. It's the same skewd logic people use when someone disagrees with them. "But what about my right to free speech?" is not a valid argument if you're insulting a private individual. You have no right to use a certain plattform and say whatever you like there unless it's a plattform provided by the government.

    It will stop being a problem when people realize its here to stay forever. Its a regular like the Flu. Live life. Stop letting a virus that will never go away keep you from doing fun stuff in your finite life.

    The flu comparisons are exactly why countries do not manage to get it under control. And "live life" is an easy thing to say but we still don't know what the long-term effects of an infection are and in my country, hundreds of people still die every day at the moment. It's basically like a Boeing crashes everyday and kills all passengers. So "live life" is a shortsighted and self-centered view where your convenience is above the health of the most vulnerable. Solidarity only if it doesn't inconvenience me.
