@Max_Imum One tip: You're supposed to cover the mixture (which I put in the big mason jar) LIGHTLY... because possibly this is aerobic process. Not sure , but I think. Anyway... if you cover with ceran wrap, it will suck to the glass and make a seal. So just jam a plastic straw under the loosely-fitted-ceran-wrap..... and you'll still allow air to get inside. I think it made a big difference in quality.

@Max_Imum If you don't have a big ass pot to use as I just talked about... Walmart has big ass supposedly stainless steel pots believe it or not for like $8.00. Now more or less a couple of bucks but amazing deal. Yes they're dinky... but for utilitarian uses like this? Gold. Because you can also put them on fire or whatever witout worrying for other projects.

In search of signs of life on Mars with China's sample return mission Tianwen-3


source: phys.org/news/2025-06-life-mar…

The article further highlights that the greatest challenge in returning Mars samples to Earth lies not in the formidable technical or scientific obstacles, but in quarantining and monitoring required once these extraterrestrial materials arrive—a process known as planetary protection.

As China is poised to become the first country to return potentially biologically active planetary material, including potential life forms, from beyond Earth, the potential risk such substances might pose to terrestrial life, including humans, is a major concern. To address this, China plans to construct a specialized facility on the outskirts of Hefei, its renowned scientific hub, where Martian samples will undergo comprehensive biochemical and pathological testing under strict isolation from Earth's environment.

Only after it is conclusively determined that the samples contain no active biological agents or substances that could threaten Earth's biosphere will they be released to designated laboratories for in-depth scientific analysis.


I think I can read a certain negative #framing here. If it were #NASA, wouldn't we just celebrate the achievement and implicitly assume that NASA will ensure the necessary safety? But when it comes to #China, the mistrust seems to be greater than the appreciation of the technical achievement.

@evacide it would benefit everyone to look at the Duluth Power and Control wheels, and learn a bit about Domestic abuse…. Once you really “see” it, you find you can overlay those wheels on to many contexts…. Including the work place and the government. It’s stomach churning, but totally necessary to be able to recognize it.

, not a solution to create more right wing parties in the US, a country which don't have any party on the left, only right wings and extreme right wings, centred in lobbies and big corporations, instead on the people and human rights.

It isn't patriotic to wear even boxers with stars and stripes (Made in China), but don't have civil rights, education, healthcare, education and only crappy food, nor giving all your money to those which less need it.

Jabàlia és un barri de la ciutat de Gaza. Un camp de refugiats, doncs la Franja és un gueto creat pels ocupants, on van obligar a viure a centenars de milers de palestins expulsats de Palestina en 1948 i 1967.

Tinc un amic d'allà, un artista. He tardat any i mig en poder parlar amb ell. Ho ha perdut tot. I li han assassinat al fill. Però encara li queda vida i estima. Potser.

Jabàlia vol dir muntanyenca. D'allà ve el nostre terme Javalí, muntanyenc.

De la mateixa Mediterrània.

in reply to David Segarra

Javalí és un terme anterior a senglar. Un terme utilitzat des de fa 1.300 anys. Arabisme incorporat al valencià-català. I usat tradicionalment al País Valencià i la Catalunya Nova. Senglar, de reminiscències afrancesades-occitanes, es popularitza al nostre país fa unes dècades.

També és un cognom comú a Palestina, clar.

The refugees of Jabalia are descendants of 38,000 Palestinians who were ethnically cleansed from Ashdod, Yaffa, Ramleh, Lydd, and Beer Sabe during the Nakba of 1948.

I fucking can't with these gormless fuckwits and their conspiracy theories. They're still pulling the lifeless bodies of children out of the water in Camp Mystic, TX while their god-emperor, having dismantled NOAA and FEMA, sits on his thumbs and counts his millions of dollars from selling death camp merch, and MAGA can't fucking wait to somehow blame all this on magic Biden clouds.

Nicknamed after a #cloud, ' #nimbus' becomes the nation's dominant COVID strain

In weather, "nimbus" is a type of cloud associated with heavy precipitation.

In health, it's the nickname for a new strain of COVID-19 that recently became the disease's dominant variant in the U.S.

Known officially as COVID variant NB.1.8.1, nimbus was first detected in March 2025 in Europe and Asia, said Matthew Lara, chief of staff for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

There is more about this at the link below:
cjonline.com/story/news/

Here are the symptoms:

“Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it. Once we truly know that life is difficult-once we truly understand and accept it-then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.” - F. Scott Peck, The Road Less Traveled

Vamos, ya que estamos viviendo en una distopia continua y parece que los gobiernos y poderosos han decidido imitar todas las obras de la literatura como "1984" " Un mundo feliz" etc.... a ver si los bomberos se animan e imitan "Farenheit452" solo que en vez de quemar libros, se van a quemar sedes de partidos condenados por pertenecer a Grupos Criminales.

Twink Link is being freed: #Nintendo apparently backtracks, says you are allowed to call yourself Twink Link as it works to unban a #Switch2 it "flagged by accident"


source: gamesradar.com/games/the-legen…

Or at least, so it is claimed. In case you somehow missed the initial kerfuffle – and what a delight for you, as you now get to catch up – #Reddit user and Nintendo Switch 2 owner Funaoe24 previously shared on Reddit that they'd earned a #console ban preventing them "from accessing any Nintendo services at all on the system." The apparent reason? Their sister recently changed her #username to Twink Link.

Then, in what was previously a final edit, the unlucky owner shared that, "Permanent system bans cannot be revoked by Nintendo at all," at least according to the support agents they were in contact with. Twink Link was seemingly jailed for good with no possible recourse.


To put it clearly and unambiguously, Nintendo can randomly #block the console and #support plays dumb. Nintendo then claims it was all just an #accident but without the huge outcry on the internet they would have done a fart for their customers.

it used to be called the Stati-Cat, but it's the GS-3 on this page. There's nothing there for scale but it's like 14 inches long and the spikes are wonderful, terrifying, oh, 8 gauge razor sharp steel pins.

The thing does actually work. Where we installed a tower with some on it, well grounded, it completely stopped the building it was on from being repeatedly smacked by lightning during the summer months.

@randomwizard, too much people you can fool all the time.
This is why the first thing where totalitarian governments cut is in education, because their system based on ignorant and obedient people, a totalitarian system cannot work with cultured and informed people.
