I can listen to history podcasts, watch physics videos and read fantasy books in German. I start feeling pretty good about it, maybe I'm not as bad at it as I think. Then I get utterly defeated by a simple tweet and have to use Translate. Learning languages sucks.

Why isn't a pouch of heavy objects mandatory astronaut equipment? You'd never get into situations where the astronaut is stuck and not moving or floating in the wrong direction.

I wonder if people are aware just how bad the EU Horizon program is... I don't know if I could come up with a way for a worse waste of money if I tried.

The biggest upgrade to my sourdough game was leaving no starter in the jar when feeding. Just the "dirty" jar and fresh flour/water. Makes complete microbiological sense. When inoculating a new culture we never dilute by 50%, we start with fresh media and a tiny inoculum.

We can make functional eggs from skin cells, sperm should follow soon. Artificial wombs are in animal testing. The hurdles keeping us away from Kamino-style cloning facilities are self imposed. A sufficiently Nietzschean individual could make it happen. news.ohsu.edu/2025/09/30/ohs…

Can someone drop a new model? Catch another rocket with chopsticks? Clone a sheep? Anything cool. The discourse the algorithm gods have decided to show me here is getting really boring.

This is terrifying. First attempt and it just produced pizzeria quality pizza. I can have pizza any day now. Bulking will never be the same.

A whole week of Christmas food, cookies, cakes, grandma dinners and no gym and I lost weight. I'm starting to think I'm really bad at this bulking thing.
