The transient nature of this sort of image is one aspect that I really appreciate. Someone on foot, in a car, on a bike will run over it. Or the Sun will come to melt it. Regardless it will only be there for a short time. Ephemeral beauty has an urgency and immediacy to it.
To produce plant-based cheeses that feel and taste like dairy cheese, scientists have their sights set on fermentation. In a new research result, University of Copenhagen scientists demonstrate the potential of fermentation for producing climate-friendly cheeses that people want to eat.
Indeed 10-20 years ago the 'fake cheese' that was available had no lasting appeal. However, a taco shop near me has a vegan cheese from Mexico. And DANG!, it's super tasty and the texture is right. And the shops prices are very reasonable.
Last month marked the official end of the Reddit protests. Any subreddit that had changed its rules or gone dark — or forced its users to post exclusively about John Oliver — has now gone back to normal. On the surface, it seems like a complete victory for Reddit, but things aren’t so simple when a major element of that...
I'm on Kbin, and feel that this shift is a majorly positive one for me both in short and hopefully in long term. I had two accounts, and one became a much more active than the other over the course of about 12 years. I dl'd my content, erased it, and left without looking back. I've used the more obscure acct to check on things a few times, but really don't have time for that. Onward! We've got a Fediverse to build!
Reddit became a significant time sink for me. I'd already backed away from FB and IG. Kbin seems a better fit for me, and it's a customizable fit. Yay!
I made a Magazine called Photobiomodulation (https://kbin.social/m/photobiomodulation/) for the discussion of this topic on the Fediverse. I've left Reddit behind, and am recreating this community here.
I'm not so sure for PBM, as it's not really a physics thing so much as a therapeutic modality. Do you think it would appeal to physics nerds? I mean, it's amazingly cool that different colors of light applied to the body can have so many varied beneficial effects. And of course a wide range of people would be super interested in that, right?
Gaming, news, tech, general literature. All of these are somewhat thriving, with a steady influx of posts and comments. At the same time, the userbase is sorely lacking for more niche communities. In my case it'd be stuff like poetry, yoga, religion, linguistics, meditation. Or many other communities I'd doubt they'd form a...
Redifugee here. I got here and created a community for Santa Fe, NM, USA (@SantaFe ), and another for Photobiomodulation/ Red Light Therapy (@photobiomodulation ). LoL, it's ain't much, but it's honest work.
DownloadedDeleted both my 12+ year old accts. Moved to Kbin / Lemmy / Mastodon - I'll settle into a rhythm with the new one. And yeah, Reddit had gotten addictive for me, so it's best I move on anyway. Yay Open Source!!
I somehow ended up as the sole moderator for r/Corfu. It's a VERY slow subreddit. I'm not sure if I should ignore it, or if there's something I can do with the tiny lever of 'power'.

I really enjoy finding abstract natural patterns in ice in the Wintry season.

I haven't been on Reddit since the 11th... Anyone else? (kbin.fedi.cr)
Just realized that the other day....

They did not provide a reason. There was no further dialog. I just got a system message telling me I was removed....
