A New Discovery About Ancient Land Plants
  • It's wild to me that most multicellular organisms are symbiotic with other kingdoms of life. Like, not only do mammals have gut microbiomes, we also have cerebrospinal fluid microbiomes! And how roots need fungi to break down the soil for them.

    making your own medicines
  • I share your wariness; the consensus on all the cross-posts seems to be the danger of it. open source drug testing would surely be vital in something like this.

  • Metaphorical haunches lowered :)

    I’m pretty sure it’s not a bioreactor, since it’s used for organic synthesis. I reckon the purification steps would be a lot even so!

    For places besides the USA, which don’t have access to large scale synthesis, I’d imagine it’s more useful. Plus, not everyone can rely on their politicians…

    getting people onboard
  • That’s really helpful, thank you! Since it’s really sunny at the moment, maybe teaching people how to make a solar cooker would be a good way to start? We’ll save the slashing tires for another day…

    I hope your gardening goes well :)

  • turns out it’s one of the more popular ones! though, I’ve done a quick search and I can’t see where it’s sourced.

  • While I was looking for an instance I saw one that said it was run on 99% renewables! So unless they’re lying I’d imagine it’s possible.
