Heh, we do the same. I appreciate that Changi airport has bottle-filling fountains at every gate.
I really appreciate Haneda airport for having bottle scanners, so you can just bring your filled bottles through security. Saw this at an airport in Europe, too, but can't remember where (domestic Athens maybe?).
Yeah, this kind of thing. We have pocari sweat powder.
As a frequent flier I'd say the most important thing is what you do before and after your flight, not during. Go in well hydrated (get those electrolytes!) and well rested. If you're flying far east/west, adjust your eating and sleeping ahead of going, to make sure the adjustment is not so hard on arrival. If you're arriving in the morning, try to sleep on the plane... if you're arriving in the evening, don't sleep on the plane. Additionally, when you arrive, wait until the appropriate time to sleep/eat as not to prolong jet lag.
Agreed. I have no issue with fishing for food, so long as you put the creature out of it's misery quickly (unlike a lot of commercial fishing)... but injuring then throwing it back "for sport" seems mean.
I've been busy travelling but somehow already reached 30+ hours playtime... and still only tried a few heroes. redacted is my fave thus far, I like how redacted is redacted.
I've had it farm fresh in Bali and at a swanky cafe in Penang. The shared characteristic was how smooth it is. Tastes different, not necessarily better or worse. Depends on what you're after in your beverage.
In Penang, we had it with a normal espresso to compare. After drinking the Luwak coffee, the espresso lost all it's flavour... It did something to our sense of taste!
Going through a factory you can tell there's no chance the poop makes it to the final product. In fact, none of the cherry meat is used, only the bean, so I question what effect the digestive process has. Maybe the preparation method is different? I haven't been to a normal coffee factory to compare.
The conditions the Luwak are kept in vary wildly, apparently the worst practices are in Vietnam. The Luwak are super cute , amazing fur, ones kept as pets were fun to interact with. The size of two house cats. Nocturnal, so I've only seen them active once.
I liked the coffee but not so much that I want to support demand for it. The Luwak is a totally unnecessary step in making what is already a great beverage regardless.
On the trams in Melbourne, the doors have little stop signs on them to remind cars that alighting passengers have right of way. It makes sense as the passengers don't have visibility of the cars, but the cars can see the tram stopping, and the doors opening.
Also, the tram can't wait for traffic to stop before letting passengers out, then continuing on its route. They have to keep schedule, else the whole network suffers.
Got to witness crabs doing this when going for a walk one day. There was a very shallow pool on the beach, about a foot wide, and about 20 crabs having a 'swap meet', scurrying back and fourth between the different shells.
You don't see many cats out and about in Bucharest. Best move to Greece (or Turkey, I hear). In Athens the city microchips and makes sure "stray" cats and dogs get veterinary care. Public parks are filled with cats so you can't eat your lunch without making a few friends, and you can't park a motorcycle without a cat parking itself on the seat. Even the hill the Acropolis is on is covered in cats.
Just want to make sure everyone know about naproxen (Aleve, Naprogesic, etc), because I'm met several people in their 40's who still didn't know it exists. Over the counter, not a pain killer, targets the cause and stops cramps/nausea etc.
I've created this community in case this Lemmy thing takes off. Have fun, and play Shining Force!
Groovy! - Lemon.
