Brewing beer is just fungus husbandry

The internet today

#TIL that "Skunk", the noun in reference to the animal, comes from an Algonquin language, and it roughly translates to "Urinating Fox"

Thinking if building my own freezedrying machine instead of buying one will be cost effective. A pressure chamber shouldn't be terribly expensive and I just need a place to keep it below freezing like an ice chest.

Ok so apparently recognizing copyright as an extension of private property is a spicy take.

If you get sucked into space, the vacuum will start to degas the blood in your system, raising a lot of it to the surface. Hence, space will give you a massive hickey the size of your body. Also, you will die from a raging boner due to the increase of relative pressure.

"Rubberducking" as a programming term is kind of outdated because programmers talk to their squishmallows now.

So, I've noticed that when you exercise your right to privacy, especially digital privacy, people get weird with you. I made a nextcloud server and people called me paranoid, then asked me what I have to hide. There is a complete projection of paranoia that I think got normalized by the government. If a person shuts their blinds, you don't suspect that they are doing illegal shit. You respect their privacy. What makes digital privacy any different? I think that it is 1 part media paranoia posting and 1 part PsyOp from the government to get people to willingly gie up their information.

So, lots of retrofuturistic subgenres like steampunk, dieselpunk, etc tend to be anglocentric. An exception would be atompunk which has american and soviet aesthetics. It would be cool for there to be something like Edopunk. Japanese punk. Ornate wooden carts that are motorized, samurais with modern tech (I know how sacrilegious that would be).
