Radiolab did an amazing episode on food freshness. They talk about plastic produce packaging, which is a bit of a modern marvel. https://radiolab.org/podcast/forever-fresh Tldr: those plastic bags that salads come in a

A lot of that will takes years to get going. Trump will nearly be out of office before manufacturing can ramp up. Add on that trump is quite literally tariffing the materials needed to expand US industry/manufacturing. The US also has

I'd like to point out that fluoride was previously very much a liberal stance until the rise in MAGA/Qanon conservatives. I grew up in the PNW of the USA and lots of small hippie towns have been removing fluoride for decades. It c

Something like 97% of cases in the US are plead out, so prosecutors tend to slap a lot of weird stuff on there.

Lots of grifters are jizzing at the amount of grift to be done. People like trump get powerful because they're corrupt. Corrupt people prop them up.

I recently bought a new computer for the first time in ~5 years. I had to boot into windows 11. What a garbage shit show that OS has become. It took nearly an hour for updates, then it constantly dogged me to sign up for free trials of all

Most of the privacy issues with smart appliances has to do with the apps that you're required to use to access the smart features. The cell phone apps harvest data. Not so much on the actual appliance. There are also issues with the ap

Ads you like vs things you'll actually buy are two very different things. Samsung can't make money off me buying vintage tools or computer parts. I'd love to see those ads. But Samsung can hit me with new washing machine ads,

I feel for that dude. I worked in public service for a while and eventually burnt out because I felt like I wasn't making much progress. Even as a vegan today I often ask myself if it's worth it when Cletus is proudly eating 5x th

It's wild how Americans can believe in a completely alternate view of what's going on because they have no idea of history. We have it extremely good in 2025 despite what people feel is going on. Compared to even a couple decade

So, in food production you can't just "make a paste". A lot of chemical stuff begins to happen very quickly. Oxidation being a major one, with separation being another. How do we mitigate these issues? We add things. We'

This is deeply flawed thinking. It also doesn't really make sense in the real world. How does anyone hear about the thing you're doing or making? How do people figure out how to get involved? How do you attract different people(wo

DOGE is about revenge. All of this is about sending a very clear message to certain people. The message is that intellectualism is under attack. Anyone going against what Trump and Co want is an enemy. That's it. It isn't complica

Stop blaming the rich and the corporations. They love when 8 billion people throw up their hands and give up, while continuing to buy cheap stuff. Blaming the rich/corps is exactly what they want. They'll gladly be your bad guy as

You basically just said we're still polluting enough to destroy the livable environment while championing a small efficiency gain. Wild thing to be enthusiastic about. Very short sighted.

And that's just what we know about. There are still sources that we're discovering. Our sources don't match what we measure yet, which means it's likely worse than we know.

There is no air conditioning and electricity if we don't stop destroying the environment. Unfortunately, your stance seems to be the most common because it relinquishes you from the guilt of destroying what isnt yours so you can enjoy

No, the most mathematically effective thing would killing most humans immediately. Blaming the rich is a scapegoat excuse that encourages most people to continue consuming beyond sustainability. We need massive behavioral change that starts

I know dozens of US academics who have moved out of US or are planning to, because of Trump and conservative's war on information. I'm just one person. It's anecdotal but speaks volumes that I'd know that many.

Americans will find any reason to be upset and play the victim card. Our food is trash. Accept it. Move on. Quit being such a victim. You're making all of us look bad.

One thing nobody said, a lot of what Americans buy is ultra-processed and designed to have a very long shelf life. It's going to last longer than most European foods to start with.

Getting sick is a very stressful period, physically and mentally. It absolutely ages you. We're sick far less often nowadays. Common illnesses were more common in previous generations. Back in the day "everyone got measles".
