I think the logical basis was most likely to isolate groups from other tribes. We don’t live that group over there. That group over there is trading pigs. It is a new rule, no the law, that you can’t eat pig. No more trade. A generation or two pass and the logical basis is lost to time.
If you really want to get into traditionally, meat used to also refer to vegetables, a.k.a. green meat. The word meat comes from the Old English word mete, which referred to food in general. More recently, green meat might have referred to animals fed exclusively on vegetables or plant based feed. And today, with the existence of veg-burgers or Beyond and Impossible meats, those are also sometimes called green meat.
So take me back a few centuries, and everything you eat would be mete, including that fish.
Composting isn’t sufficient for carbon capture. Still better than nothing I suppose.
ZZ, more often than not.
For a long time, before the current snafu, editing your comment before deleting it was the only way to expunge it. Probably no real guarantee, because archiving the database was already a thing, but applying the edit used to also update the archive, supposedly. If it was just delete, then it would linger after you deleted your account. Modifying your comment or post, then deleting your account, that leaves the modified comment even though you now can’t go back and make changes or delete it. The suggestion I believe is to modify the content, then just delete the account. Deleting the comment isn’t enough supposedly, because some people have said that their deleted comments have been restored.
What you say?
the idea of allying with Turkey, and potentially having to deploy troops to defend them should it come to that, doesn’t sit well with me.
That a good thing which comes from a larger coalition. The more countries involved that won’t attack each other, and the more counties that will aid other countries in the coalition if needed, the less likely there is a need to raise those defenses. I’m glad to see Finland and Sweden joining, not because of the troops and resources they might commit, but because it improves everyone’s self sovereignty, including those nations which aren’t full members.
For me, it is the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live. Shaped like beans, the best part is that they don’t plug your ear canal. They have “active noise cancelation” but they do little when they aren’t sealed, I’d rather that they enhanced things like speech or could recognize different sorts of alarms and alerts, muting the playing audio for potential alerts. I know that’s a strange feature few others would probably want. They are absolutely the most comfortable things I’ve ever worn and I wish Samsung would release an update with better batteries and support for non-Samsung devices, or some other manufacturer would release a competing product that brings those better audio codecs. There are some other “open ear” type of designs, but still nothing which really competes in the space.
The cow is sacred in India, so they don’t eat beef. Most of the Western world won’t eat dog or cat, but that isn’t a universal thing and while probably not as common today, it doesn’t mean that it’s an unheard of practice. Until recent times, people would eat what was available which didn’t have alternative value.
