If you could pause body aging, what age would you have paused at, and why?

davep,

@RickiTarr
I'm nearly 58 and healthier than I've ever been since discovering the wonders of alcohol and cigarettes in my teens.

Stopping them was huge and I'd have liked to know how I'd have felt while still indestructible in my early twenties without testing the limits of my abilities to imbibe industrial quantities of both though.

I saw a TikTok recommending putting olive oil in cappuccino. I love olive oil and I love cappuccino, so I was super excited to try it. Can't get over how well it did not work. Somehow combining two things I like turned into undrinkable coffee.

davep,

@malwaretech I put walnut oil in my whey protein shake because high protein without lipids or carbs isn't great for you. It mings a bit, but isn't intended to be one of life's pleasures.

Olive oil and coffee is just wrong! And, as you say, they're both lovely in their own natural environment.

I'm reaching out to the mastodon community to find out if there's anyone in the Houston, Texas area that will be holding an exam session. I tried the Facebook route but that failed miserably and I don't trust the exam session listings. Are their any volunteer examiners in the Houston area that can help steer me in the right direction outside of MeetUp and Facebook. :)

Thank you!

davep,

@0xF21D Not in Houston, but this seems to be up @mattblaze 's alley.

An interesting approach to meat substitutes that has actually scaled. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/feb/11/spanish-startup-cocuus-pamplona-quest-3d-printed-meat-steak

davep,

@simonzerafa There is merit in both plant-based diets and the meat substitutes. The use of microbial (bacterial/fungal) sources with up to 80% protein and very little in the way of inputs could have a huge impact in reducing the amount of land used for agriculture.

The replica thing is most important for these bland microbial sources, and also for helping avowed carnivores to more readily accept moving away from a meat-based diet.

davep,

@simonzerafa It can look like whatever you want. The idea of looking and tasting like meat is pretty obvious, really. A lot of people just wouldn't countenance moving to a more plant-based diet.

Perun's latest video on the PLA is rather good https://youtu.be/ckouoTDkrtQ?feature=shared

davep,

@tomasekeli Indeed!

Who could have thought 70 minute PowerPoint presentations on YouTube could be so fascinating?!

Pretty much everyone under 50 right now: Hey, maybe killing a six year old by riddling a car with bullets then killing the paramedics trying to rescue them is a bad thing, and we should oppose it?

Alastair Campbell: Young people should get off their high horse about this.

davep,

@Rhodium103 Oi! I'm over 50!

Sad and a little angry because I dreamt about eating Cocoa Puffs for breakfast but woke knowing the only cereal we have resembles livestock feed.

davep,

@adhdeanasl But it's good for you!

You have my deepest sympathies.

If the American deep state is so powerful, why is the dunderchief Putin asset still alive?

I'm going mad. Is there a simple solution to creating a small e-commerce website? With you're paying for multiple premium plugins and it's just bonkers. It's like being caught in a web.

Haven't looked at or really. Ideas?

Edit: it's the multilingual stuff that is making it a headache.

I'd be such a good prepper influencer on TikTok/Youtube. Maybe not popular, but I'd give great advice.

Every video would just be a reminder to wear a fucking respirator and learn new skills.

Maybe we won't survive with my strategy, but I bet it will work better than hoarding bullets and food.

davep,

@tinker @NilaJones @sleepfreeparent @PacificNic
I said something similar about resilience in the entrails of this thread too https://infosec.exchange/@davep/111893174987605574

davep,

@ciggysmokebringer @sleepfreeparent @PacificNic
Lone survivalists wouldn't last long. It's got to be about community. That's how you gain resilience.

Happy fifth anniversary to The Long Sentence.

davep,

@GrimmReality

Hear me out... you can totally alter the meaning of a sentence by adding a colon.

For example: "Peter ate some of Jane's sandwich" vs "Peter ate some of Jane's colon"

Just your usual killer fungus doom https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/deadly-candida-auris-fungal-infection-32062686

davep,

@simonzerafa 60% fatality!!!

Most people just carry it with no ill-effects.

Err...

davep,

@simonzerafa Still, I was fulfilling my doom quota (and only really read it after posting, I'll admit, and had the same "huh?" reaction you did).
