  • New research shows weight loss is possible without GLP-1

    Jump

  • I've noticed first hand the impact of environmental factors.

    I moved from a place where I needed the car for EVERYTHING. This include taking off the garbage. Even going for a walk wasn't possible without taking the car first.

    Most of the food I was eating was imported (mainly from the US). I was able to find few local fruits and vegetable but choices are quite limited and the supply erratic.

    Then I moved back to France, I now live in a small village where everything is available at a walking or biking distance. School, work, small grocery shop, bakery, doctor, pharmacy, coworking space, kids activity. I'm might be using the car once a week now.

    There is plenty of farmers in the area with local produces and even supermarkets have a wide selection of decent fruits and vegetables but I prefer the local producers as I can.

    I stopped working out, I have not purposely changed my eating habits but without any surprise I am in a much, much better physical shape now.

  • Science is iterative

    Jump

  • Yes, just like every new electrical generation method is steam, every new method of propulsion in space is throw something at the back as fast as we can.

    The exception being Project Orion. The idea behind project Orion is to constantly drop and explode nuclear bombs behind the spaceship at a rate of 1 bomb per second. The explosion of the bomb would then push the spaceship forward.

  • Trump threatens to blow Iran ‘off the face of the earth’ if it attacks US vessels

  • Probably time to either feed him and change his diaper.

    My toddler too started screaming when we wanted one of these two things.

  • Steam Controller and Puck CAD files now available!

    Jump

  • Steam released the CAD files of the Steam controller, on gitlab, under a creative Commons license !

    I was on the edge about wanting to buy a steam controller but now definitely want one. I'll keep an eye open for when they are back in stock.

  • The surface of the asteroid Ryugu taken by Hayabusa-2

    Jump

  • Is that hard rock or piles of dust? 🤨

    Yes

  • Science is iterative

    Jump

  • Ion thrusters are an example of electricity used for space propulsion.

    In ion thrusters electricity is used to create a magnetic field that accelerate the propellant particles at very high speed. This way the propellant of used much more efficiently.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that it's not a concept, it's actively used in a lot of satellites

  • You don't own your vehicle anymore

    Jump

  • In a crisis, every bike is a dirtbike.

  • You don't own your vehicle anymore

    Jump

  • In time of crisis bikes are THE best transportation mode.

  • wish i wasn't 3 15 years ago

    Jump

  • 15 years !

    Haha, this is clearly engagement bait !

    I remember these memes from when I was at university, which was only .... 15 years ago. Fuck!

  • 2nd rule

    Jump

  • In Paris a lot of apartments had a cellar opening on the outside.

    Like this one:

    Unfortunately a lot of them have been removed since it's much easier to have everything in the fridge at constant temperature and energy used to be cheap.

  • Every time ❤️

    Jump

  • My dog would sit in front of is and whine of we don't take the harness off after a walk.

  • The future of electricity is wind and solar, new report says. Canada is lagging behind

    Jump

  • Even without pumping, hydroelectricity is great to complement intermittent storage. A dam is storing a lot of potential energy that can be released or not at the right time.

    There is a big dam close to where I live. In winter the level goes down progressively and as soon as spring comes back, the solar panels are producing again and the electrical demands goes down so the lake level goes back up progressively.

    In summer the lake is full so all the tourists can enjoy the activities on the water.

  • YOU SHOULD KNOW RULE

    Jump

  • When we believed the future would be better.

    Now when we looked at the future we see climate change, rise of fascism some the world, destruction of the biodiversity ...

  • BYD confirms UK's fastest EV chargers: 1500kW network detailed

    Jump

  • the devices can be powered by on-site battery packs topped up by solar panels.

    I believe this is the case for a lot of the very fast chargers, it's easier to install batteries pack to smooth the consumption rather than upgrading the grid to handle the occasional peak consumption.

  • Fairphone 3 EOL

    Jump

  • The possibility to easily change the USB port definitely weight in the balance in favor of a fairphone when I picked a new phone.

    Now two other members of my family have a fairphone 5 as well.

  • We must speak to them in the only language they understand

    Jump

  • Those who have taken the entire dish onto their plates, leaving others’ plates empty, and who, having taken it all, say with a straight face and a clear conscience, “We who have everything are for peace!”—I know exactly what I must shout at them: You are the first to be violent; you are the instigators of all violence!

    And when, in the evening, in your beautiful homes, you go to kiss your grandchildren, with a clear conscience, you probably have more blood on your hands—unaware of it, in God’s eyes—than the desperate person who took up arms to try to escape their despair will ever have.

    But let’s not fool ourselves: violence isn’t limited to weapons; there are situations of violence.

    A speech from the Abbé Pierre on the national TV in France. The man itself has been accused of multiple sexual aggression so he's not someone to admire but he did do a lot for homeless people.

  • TIL the color "chartreuse" is named after a liqueur

    Jump

  • English isn't my first language so it's hard to find the word to describe it.

    It's definitely a unique drink, very herbal. The green is not on the herbal side, the yellow a bit more on the spices like vanilla, liquorice.

    The best way to drink it is to slowly sip it in a wide glass. Like a perfume, the flavor profile change with time. So the first sip will not taste the same as the second sip.

    I sometime "forgot" a glass for an hour and two and when I came back it was a completely different drink, sill as delicious as the beginning.

  • On the expensive side, one recently seen this display in a monastery's meeting room in France. 3m high, 5m wide filled with bottles of chartreuse, some more than a century old, some very rare editions where less than ten bottles were produced.

    Any of these bottles could be sold for several thousands.

  • US | ‘Morale is going to be at an all-time low’: Iran war troops living on meager rations as Postal Service stops delivering

    Jump

  • Wrong, there was a vote few months ago at the UN to make food a human right. Only two countries voted against it, the USA and Israel.

    So the US don't consider food to be a human right.
