What Interested Me Today 8

I talk about a new game from a studio I like, being in the podium of the 100DaysToOffload challenge, and #Bubbles! a new site that may become the "front-page of the indie web!", seems rather promising.

This is day 52 of #100DaysToOffload

Scrubbing Bubbles

Cleaning produce helps fruits and vegetables last longer and reduces the chances for foodborne illness. But it can be a difficult feat with soft, delicate foods like tomatoes, berries, or greens. Current methods often combine ultrasonic cleaning and chemicals like chlorine. Instead, researchers are looking to boost the cleaning power of bubbles themselves by giving them an acoustic pick-me-up.

The team combined a bubble-filled bath with sound at low (sub-cavitation) frequencies. They found that driving sound waves at the right frequency could vibrate the bubbles in a way that made them slide in a stop-and-go motion along inclined surfaces. This swaying significantly boosted their cleaning power; getting surfaces 90% cleaner than non-resonating bubbles did. (Image credit: S. Hok/Cornell University; video and research credit: Y.

Bursting an Oobleck Bubble

When soap bubbles burst, the hole grows as an expanding circle. But not every fluid bursts this same way. Here, researchers let air rise through oobleck–a fluid made from cornstarch suspended in water–to form a bubble. In time, as with all bubbles, the oobleck bubble bursts. But–in keeping with oobleck’s solid-like properties–the film tears open and fractures. As it sinks back into the liquid, it wrinkles before it slowly relaxes back into fluid form.

Dear Friends of Lucid dreaming,

As you may know:

1) The subconscious is a mine of information, that can be tapped into

2) Never believe what you see, hear or think. Unless it is true. Are you discerning though? As much as you think?

3) All bubble thinking is fragile, inflated and ultimately breaks or pops.

In other words the path to self improvement is a great start for the mentally feeble but rarely taken by the rigid and certain. Am I sure? No. Never.

@viermalbe In your #bubbles blog (post)[https://dshbx.de/blog/bubbles/entry/b9869fa7-03e3-4066-9ce5-112cfbddfa03] you claim that your dashboard on #PlausibleAnalytics is
> completely public [...] no login required.

When I try to access (your dashboard)[https://data.holtwick.de/bubbles.town], on #ironfox on Android with just #ublockorigin , it just shows me a blank page with links and a login link.

If I need to login, then "no login required" is not true. Please fix this if possible. Thanks.
