I guess to be fair, there are some local places around me that make sodas, which probably are reasonable ethical businesses. Depending on how many bourbon colas you're drinking, it might be worth paying extra for an locally made soda if possible. If you don't have someone that makes soda locally (which is probably likely), maybe consider buying from "gourmet soda" brands like Hank's.

Administrative bloat. At my university, if my lab lands a grant, 60% goes to the university and only 40% is used for actual research. There's a long chain of people whose jobs are to answer emails, and they all need to be paid.

Almost all soda is produced by a corporation run by psychopaths. Your best bet is to stop drinking soda.

Lemmy. For more niche communities that don't exist on Lemmy I use RSS feeds on specific subreddits. Discord for chatting with friend and other niche communities. LinkedIn because I'm in academia.

You're working under the assumption that Puerto Ricans saw Trump either favorably or neutrally before this incident.

Might want to reevaluate your list there.

She would not be the first to be corrupted by his influence.. It also doesn't help that his proteges have all been running SF local government for years. It seems insane to me to dismiss their relationship as not a concern. It's not a dealbreaker for me, but it seems absurd to think she is "squeaky clean" in light of it. I can be pro-Harris and express some critiques.

Nice deflection

Lol, they literally dated right before her political career started. I see you didn't do the minimum effort to even look into what I was talking about.

 

I spend a lot of time creating system diagrams for presentations. I always use Inkscape to draw these diagrams. However I ran into a scenario where I wanted to animate them. The animations I'm looking for are dead simple. I want to be able to fade in, fade out, and slide basic shapes. The way I worked around it this time was by using PowerPoint. However, is there an FOSS alternative I could use? I would probably need to also export the animation into a gif or some other platform agnostic format. Bonus points for something that can use the images I draw in Inkscape.
