My suggestion for the steam winter sale is chech out the GOG winter sale. But maybe that’s just me.

Misleading headline wording. Makes it seem one thing lead to the other, rather than reality being the other way around.

LNG = liquified natrual gas

If you’re punching with you fist, you are probably punching wrong.

Amazed to see this. New old house. Used oven for first time. Some sort of stench and black gunk dripping from top heat shield. Gas stove. Investigate. Pull out pieces of a gun. Glock or something. Previous owner stops by for mail (unusual situation). I had over the melted pieces, “you forget something in the oven?” “Oh shit. No problem, I can fix it.” "uh… Okaaaaay… "

After a month of neglect my garden is compete chaos. I am (more-or-less) fine with this. It is better to have grown and lost, than to have never grown at all. As they say. Or something like that.

As long as the backdoor is licenced GPL what’s the problem?

Been meaning for years to harvest some seeds from a big patch of nettles growing not far from here on a country (canada) roadside. Then this spring someone decided to cut all the grass and weeds back along this road… the nettles disappeared. I watched for months and months hoping they would re-appear. I had almost given up hope, but finally just in the last month they have slowly appeared again by the edge of the cut. A meager little growth, compared to what I was. Will I ever harvest any seeds? All I know for sure is that I will continue to intend to.

Similar recipe:

Chop nappa cabbage
Couple of packs or ramen broken up.
Ramen seasoning powder.
Chopped or slivver almond
Sesame seeds.
Green onion / scallion
rice vinegar to taste

Coincidentally just just watched this Gutsick Gibbon (primatologist) vid which touches on this a bit (though not the main topic). https://youtu.be/dy7_LousWVo

Emerald damselfly, or migrant spreadwing. Nice pic.

Never have a seen a more visceral illustration of the brutal dangers of ai.

Chocolate and famous name brand cola?

Unfortunately your stats link appears to be paywalled, or at least requires login to see the graph?

The annoying part of this for me is that Gates’ name needs to be dropped in, presumably to get attention. But so it goes.

It’s interesting to see that the concept of butter in the comments seems to be a significant trigger for a bunch of people (in the /c/science posting of this article). This is another level to the problem.

But the main problem which no one seems to have commented on (maybe because it is mentioned at the end of the article) is, like many animal product substitutes, production cost and scaling.

Animal products are so embedded and subsidised (and/or at least true externized costs ignored), and politically connected, potential eco-friendly alternatives like this have a really extra hard time getting off the ground even if I could one day be cheaper.

This may be a logical fallacy known as false equivalence, when one fact is stated or implied to be conflated with another not directly related fact.

Some alternate suggestions might be nice.

Here is the novelization of the cartoon… sort of. As She Climbed Across the Table by Jonathan Lethem.

Ha ha, maybe. The article is pretty short. However, the actual paper linked at the bottom of the article is titled “Hamiltonian cycles on Ammann-Beenker Tilings” (unfortunately I can only see the abstract), so the original authors are also responsible!

It’s my thinking that the key point of thr Hamiltonian cycle in this context is it visits nodes only once thereby creating a unique path. The trick here seems to be then joining those paths for a collection of subgraphs? I’m really not sure. It’s a bit beyond me, but I find it interesting to think about.
