baguette

Housemaids were hurrying homewards with their purchases for various Gallic breakfasts, and the long sticks of bread, a yard or two in length, carried under their arms, made an odd impression upon me.

And they all go quite when Apple politely obliges to whatever China demands from them. That site is the definition of toxic-fanboyism. So many commenters their blindly believe every declaration Apple makes.

I am pretty certain this is a hybrid.

To uninstall NickelMenu, just create a new file named uninstall in .adds/nm/, or trigger the failsafe mechanism by immediately powering off the Kobo after it starts booting[^1].

I have done this maybe last year or something and confirm that the official documentation of NickelMenu works. Haven't in- or uninstalled koreader in a very long time.

If someone is really invested with the environment and climate, they should at the least have some awareness of the consequences of meat consumption. In that case, why do others have to keep holding their hand? The world wide web is full of delicious vegan/vegetarian recipes. Why does individual responsibility/initiative stop when one is convinced that reducing a luxury good is the best option?

And there are so many options to improve. Flexitarian, pescaterian, vegetarian, plant-based or vegan. I believe it helps to not let perfect be the enemy of good. It might also depend a bit on what convictions you want to change. If climate and/or health, it might give a bit more leniency; if animal wellfare it is likely to be a strict regime.

(keep in mind, the above is about those who say to care for the environement/climate)

In French it is ''ot dog'. I once tried to order 'hot dog' in Paris in French. The waiter apparently had no clue what a 'hot dog végétarien' was, until my partner took over and ordered an ''ot dog végétarien' and they instantly understood the only English word on the menu...
