But i want to raise attention to the fact that this is not limited to discord. Everytime some sort of server is involved and the system is not based on peer to peer, someone got to provide and pay some sort of computational power. Someone pays for your matrix server, your lemmy instance,… if those services grow in popularity we got to talk about the costs and what people that pay expect.

Some stuff that can taste well even “cold”:
Canned tuna + precooked canned beans + onion + salt pepper oil vinegar.
Watermelon (quite inefficient when it comes to nutritiom but tasty)
Bread + mustard+ hard cheese or certain types of sausages (especially smoked with low amount of water inside).
Most vegetables and fruit will survive 5 days if they do not have defects and you can keep insects away from it.
