All of the hydrogen was created at the initial cooling of the big bang. In this case what I mean by primordial, is that it was never part of a larger composite object like a star.

If that hydrogen was previously incorporated in a star, I think it’s fair to call it stardust. That’s very likely, since our solar system would have formed from a relatively dense cloud of the remnants of earlier stars, with just a smidge of primordial hydrogen mixed in.

Libreoffice is not my first choice for document preparation, but I use it only because I need to collaborate with people who use MS Office. I’ve had no problems that weren’t easy to fix.

Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.

When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.

Electing someone who believes that we should have laws and enforce them is exactly what we should do.

When she was a prosecutor, it was not her job to change the laws or decide which ones to enforce. If we don’t want non-violent drug users and truants prosecuted, then we should change those laws. We have a process for that, and it doesn’t include prosecutors making those decisions for us.

And many “flowers” are not flowers at all. Poinsettia is the first one that comes to mind, but there are lots of them.

but the lack of full factual disclosure is a choice

What full facts are you assuming they had? The claim that the cemetery official was having some kind of episode was made by Civitas Cheung. That is a fact. The claim that it was not the case has apparently not been made yet by anyone. Do you want the reporters to speculate about what they think really happened? I don’t.
